LATE WISCONSIN GLACIATION of TASMANIA by Eric A

Tasm. 130(2): 33-45. https://doi.org/10.26749/rstpp.130.2.33 ISSN 0080-4703. Department of Geography, University of Newcastle, Callaghan, NSW, Australia 2308 (EAC); Department of Physical Sciences, University of Tasmania at Launceston, Tasmania, Australia 7250 (DH); Forest Practices Board ofTasmania, 30 Patrick Street, Hobart, Tasmania, Australia 7000 (KK). During the Late Wisconsin, icecap and outlet glacier systems developed on the West Coast Range and on the Central Plateau ofTasmania. Local cirque and valley glaciers occurred in many other mountain areas of southwestern Tasmania. Criteria are outlined that enable Late Wisconsin and older glacial landforms and deposits to be distinguished. Radiocarbon dates show Late Wisconsin ice developed after 26-25 ka BP, attained its maximum extent c. 19 ka BP, and disappeared from the highest cirques before 10 ka BP. Important Late Wisconsin age glacial landforms and deposits of the West Coast Range, north-central and south-central Tasmania are described. Late Wisconsin ice was less extensive than ice formed during middle and earlier Pleistocene glaciations. Late Wisconsin snowline altitudes, glaciological conditions and palaeodimatic conditions are outlined. Key Words: glaciation, Tasmania, Late Wisconsin, snowline altitude, palaeoclimate. -

Interim Management Plan for the Mt Read RAP
Tasmanian Geological Survey Tasmania Record 1997/04 Interim Management Plan for the Mt Read RAP A Co-operatively Formulated Plan by Government Agencies, Statutory Bodies and Relevant Land Users for the Mt Read RAP SUMMARY The formulation of this plan by a co-operative committee, comprising representatives from Government Agencies, statutory bodies and relevant land users, is a ‘first’ for Tasmania. The effort by these various parties with an interest in the Mt Read area demonstrates the commitment to protect the area in the absence of any formal reserve. The Mt Read RAP is almost entirely covered by two current mining leases, ML7M/91 over the Henty gold deposit and ML28M/93 associated with the Rosebery silver-lead-zinc mine, and exploration licence EL5/96 held by Renison Limited. The RAP is within the Mt Read Strategic Prospectivity Zone, which means that if the status of the land is changed and this effectively prevents activities on the current mining tenements, then compensation may be payable. The vegetation around Lake Johnston is acknowledged as having exceptionally high conservation and scientific values, which is why a management plan for the area was written in 1992 and adopted by the lessee. There is a need to expand the scope of the previous plan so that all users of the Mt Read area are aware of the need to abide by measures to protect the vegetation. In addition, media reports have generated much interest in the ancient stands of Huon pine growing in one part of the Mt Read RAP. Studies indicate that the existing Huon pine on the site comprises one or a few individuals which may have vegetatively reproduced on the site since the last glaciation. -
DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28
DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 Minister’s message It is my pleasure to release the Draft Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 as the guiding document for the Inland Fisheries Service in managing this valuable resource on behalf of all Tasmanians for the next 10 years. The plan creates opportunities for anglers, improves access, ensures sustainability and encourages participation. Tasmania’s tradition with trout fishing spans over 150 years. It is enjoyed by local and visiting anglers in the beautiful surrounds of our State. Recreational fishing is a pastime and an industry; it supports regional economies providing jobs in associated businesses and tourism enterprises. A sustainable trout fishery ensures ongoing benefits to anglers and the community as a whole. To achieve sustainable fisheries we need careful management of our trout stocks, the natural values that support them and measures to protect them from diseases and pest fish. This plan simplifies regulations where possible by grouping fisheries whilst maintaining trout stocks for the future. Engagement and agreements with land owners and water managers will increase access and opportunities for anglers. The Tasmanian fishery caters for anglers of all skill levels and fishing interests. This plan helps build a fishery that provides for the diversity of anglers and the reasons they choose to fish.

Tasmanian Planning Scheme West Coast Council Draft Local
Tasmanian Planning Scheme West Coast Council Draft Local Provisions Schedule Supporting Report March 2020 Page | 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report supports the submission of the draft West Coast Local Provisions Schedule (WCOLPS) to be submitted to the Tasmanian Planning Commission pursuant to s.35(1) of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 (the Act) for assessment of whether it is suitable for exhibition pursuant to section 35B (4) of the Act. This document introduces the WCOLPS and provides evidence of compliance with the LPS criteria as required by s. 34 of the Act. In accordance with s34 of LUPAA, the Supporting Report: • Demonstrates compliance with the State Policies; • Demonstrates compliance with the Regional Land Use Strategy; • Provides explanation of the spatial application of the relevant zones and the applicable compliance matters; • Addresses the application of the Codes within the WCOLPS; • Presents the proposed Specific Area Plans and justification behind these; • Advises regarding coordination with adjoining municipal areas; • Addresses the safety requirements set out in the standards prescribed by the Gas Pipelines Act 2000; and • Demonstrates compliance with Schedule 1 of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993. The draft WCOLPS does not propose a Particular Purpose Zone or Site-Specific Qualifications. However, two Specific Area Plans (SAPs) are proposed, one for Queenstown and the other for Strahan Harbour. These vary the SPPs with respect to: • setbacks within a defined spatial area of Queenstown; and • building heights within two defined spatial areas of Strahan fronting Strahan Harbour and Regatta Point. The purpose of these SAPS is to retain development controls to protect elements of the built form which are not achieved by the SPPs. -
