We are concerned that Victoria’s Draft Deer Management Strategy (2018) fell far short of addressing the considerable problems feral deer bring to peri-urban and regional communities, and to wetlands, catchments and the natural environment. We offer here some recommendations for the final strategy; it is a critical opportunity to control deer populations and to reverse the increasing impacts they are having. We agree with the rough estimate for the state’s deer population, as documented in the draft strategy, at ‘between several hundred thousand up to one million or more’. The population is growing rapidly at an exponential rate1, and far exceeds the capacity for control by recreational hunters. Research into the native habitats of the four main species of deer in Victoria indicates that they can continue to extend their range, potentially occupying almost every habitat in the nation2. Victoria’s biodiversity is at risk.

Photos: Dean Anthony Creswick Creek Footbridge The new walk-ride bridge across Creswick Creek, adjacent to Melbourne Road was officially opened on Friday 19 June by Hepburn Shire Mayor Cr Kate Redwood AM. The $120,000 bridge was fully funded by the State Government and links the existing walking trails and provides safe access across the Creek. The 20 metre long bridge is constructed of a galvanised steel frame, aluminium panels and timber deck and has been built above the 100 year flood level. Assistance with the official cutting of the ribbon was given by Cr Don Henderson, GDTA Past President Alison Lanigan and Creswick Tourism representative Margaret Giles. Cr Henderson said that GDTA was a key community group that had given ongoing concerted reminders to Council over 20 years about the need for the bridge. Cr Henderson was instrumental in finally securing funding for the bridge and completing the project and the GDTA appreciates his enthusiasm and effort in providing a safe crossing for walkers and riders along the Goldfields Track in Creswick. Other GDTA members at the bridge opening were Brian Lanigan, GDTA Treasurer and Glenda Dimond, along with representatives of several community groups and government organisations, including Siobhan Rogan, Area Chief Ranger Ballarat and Paul Fernandez from Parks Victoria, several Hepburn Shire Council representatives, walkers from Creswick Walkers and students from Creswick Primary School. The students were given the honour of being the first riders to officially ride across the bridge.

    Response to the Renewable Energy Zone Development Plan Directions Paper I am contacting you to provide feedback on the State Government of Victoria REZ Development Plan Directions Paper with specific reference to the Western: V3 Project, the Western Victoria Transmission Network Project (WVTNP) North Ballarat to Bulgana. This project involves constructing a 500kV overhead transmission line from North Ballarat to Sydenham. The project has been identified in the REZ Development Plan Directions Paper as having a ‘High Risk’ of delivery for the following reasons: • Project within greenfield area therefore vegetation clearing required. • Infrastructure close to sensitive areas • Conflicting land use • Potential conflicting regarding future residential development. • Potential community concerns regarding increased visual impacts and environmental impacts. The proponent for the WVTNP, AusNet Services, has identified an Area of Interest (AoI) and has further narrowed potential corridors, one of these is immediately north of Darley between existing residential and the Lerderderg State Park. I am the spokesperson for Darley Power Fight, a group representing communities in Darley, Coimadai and Merrimu, Victoria. We are in full support of Renewable Energy Zones provided associated projects are delivered through effective stakeholder consultation with consideration of communities, the environment, and economic impacts. The current regulatory framework does not consider the projects disbenefit and only considers project cost versus economic benefit

The Gorge is the dominant feature of the 20,180 hectare park which also protects a wide variety of vegetation from fern gullies to dry open forest, colourful displays of spring wildflowers and some interesting relics of early gold mining. Camping O’Briens Crossing and Upper Chadwick Track have designated campgrounds. Walk-in camping is permitted within the Conservation Zone, but n o t e s solid fuel fires are prohibited.
