  • The History of the Worimi People by Mick Leon
    The History of the Worimi People By Mick Leon The Tobwabba story is really the story of the original Worimi people from the Great Lakes region of coastal New South Wales, Australia. Before contact with settlers, their people extended from Port Stephens in the south to Forster/Tuncurry in the north and as far west as Gloucester. The Worimi is made up of several tribes; Buraigal, Gamipingal and the Garawerrigal. The people of the Wallis Lake area, called Wallamba, had one central campsite which is now known as Coomba Park. Their descendants, still living today, used this campsite 'til 1843. The Wallamba had possibly up to 500 members before white contact was made. The middens around the Wallis Lake area suggest that food from the lake and sea was abundant, as well as wallabies, kangaroos, echidnas, waterfowl and fruit bats. Fire was an important feature of life, both for campsites and the periodic 'burning ' of the land. The people now number less than 200 and from these families, in the main, come the Tobwabba artists. In their work, they express images of their environment, their spiritual beliefs and the life of their ancestors. The name Tobwabba means 'a place of clay' and refers to a hill on which the descendants of the Wallamba now have their homes. They make up a 'mission' called Cabarita with their own Land Council to administer their affairs. Aboriginal History of the Great Lakes District The following extract is provided courtesy of Great Lakes Council (Narelle Marr, 1997): In 1788 there were about 300,000 Aborigines in Australia.

    BIRDING LOCATIONS of the LOWER MID NORTH COAST Including the Lower MANNING VALLEY surrounding TAREE and the Regent Bowerbird WALLIS LAKE area around FORSTER / TUNCURRY 2017 edition Prepared By Manning Great Lakes Birdwatchers Inc. THE LOWER MID NORTH COAST The Lower Manning Valley surrounding Taree and the Wallis Lake area around Forster / Tuncurry are each a paradise for birdwatchers. Numerous National Parks, State Forests and Nature Reserves contain a variety of natural vegetation types including rainforest, woodland, coastal heath and tidal estuaries hosting many species of birds. The Lower Mid North Coast is fringed by endless kilometres of white sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and rugged cliffs providing many opportunities to view seabirds as well as dolphins and whales. Visitors will enjoy easy access to most areas by conventional vehicles, with 4 wheel drive(s) tracks available for the more adventurous. Many species of waterbirds, bushbirds and raptors, including nests, can be viewed along the pristine waterways of The Manning River or Wallis Lake. Regular cruises are available and small self-skippered boats can be hired. Accommodation is available to cater for all needs. The list includes the land and freshwater birds reliably recorded in the Manning Valley and Great Lakes are as well as the common seabirds to be seen from the coast.

  • The Permanent Walk Booklet Update
    1 2 THE OLD AUSTRALIAN AGRICULTURAL COMPANY KARUAH TO TAHLEE WALK BOOKLET (Revised for 2015) We acknowledge and recognise the Worimi people on whose land we walk. GENERAL INTRODUCTION WHY WALK? Once every year, Karuah residents and friends walk the 5 kilometres or so from Karuah to Tahlee along the Old AACo Road. It only happens once a year because the road crosses Yalimbah Creek and the bridge that used to cross the creek has gone. In the late 1950s, the bridge which had been built under the direction of Robert Dawson in 1826 was burnt down by persons unknown. At that stage, the bridge was more than 130 years old, a remarkable age for a wooden bridge. Up to that point residents of the two villages had travelled back and forth on a daily basis. From then on, they were forced to take the current route which is 14 kilometres long. So, every year for the last five years, a local oyster farmer has offered an oyster barge to carry people over the creek and around 150 people re-enact the trip from village to village. Karuah Progress association hosts the day which includes a light lunch, guides, afternoon tea and an inspection of historic Tahlee House and a bus ride back to Karuah via the new route as well as a photocopied version of this booklet. TAHLEE AND KARUAH – IN THE EARLY 19TH CENTURY: In 1825 when the Australian Agricultural Company was formed, 10,000 shares were offered at one hundred pounds per share and they were snapped up by the rich and famous.

    ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT GLOUCESTER RESOURCES LIMITED Section 4 – Environmental Features, Management Amended Rocky Hill Coal Project Measures and Impacts Report No. 806/13 4.8 SOILS AND LAND AND SOIL CAPABILITY The soils assessment of the amended Project was undertaken in two parts. The assessment of soils within the Mine Area and power line corridors was completed by Geoff Cunningham Natural Resource Consultants Pty Ltd as part of the 2013 Project assessment whilst the assessment of soils within the private haul road corridor was completed by Soil Management Designs as part of the amended Project. The full assessments are presented in Volume 4 Parts 10A and 10B of the Specialist Consultant Studies Compendium and are referenced throughout this section as GCNRC (2013a) and SOILmgt (2016), with a summary of the assessments presented in the following subsections. Relevant soils information is also discussed in Section 4.17 with respect to agricultural resources within the Site. 4.8.1 Introduction Based on the risk assessment undertaken for the amended Project (Section 3.3.1 and Appendix 6), the potential impacts relating to soils and their risk rankings after the adoption of standard mitigation measures are as follows. Inadequate soils available for rehabilitation purposes leading to less successful rehabilitation and increased rehabilitation costs and maintenance to the Mine Area and private haul road corridor (low). Degradation of soil in stockpiles leading to less successful rehabilitation and increased rehabilitation costs and maintenance (low). Erosion of soil stockpiles within the Waukivory Creek / Oaky Creek catchment areas leading to increased sediment loads in both creeks (low).

  • Vegetation and Flora of Booti Booti National Park and Yahoo Nature Reserve, Lower North Coast of New South Wales
    645 Vegetation and flora of Booti Booti National Park and Yahoo Nature Reserve, lower North Coast of New South Wales. S.J. Griffith, R. Wilson and K. Maryott-Brown Griffith, S.J.1, Wilson, R.2 and Maryott-Brown, K.3 (1Division of Botany, School of Rural Science and Natural Resources, University of New England, Armidale NSW 2351; 216 Bourne Gardens, Bourne Street, Cook ACT 2614; 3Paynes Lane, Upper Lansdowne NSW 2430) 2000. Vegetation and flora of Booti Booti National Park and Yahoo Nature Reserve, lower North Coast of New South Wales. Cunninghamia 6(3): 645–715. The vegetation of Booti Booti National Park and Yahoo Nature Reserve on the lower North Coast of New South Wales has been classified and mapped from aerial photography at a scale of 1: 25 000. The plant communities so identified are described in terms of their composition and distribution within Booti Booti NP and Yahoo NR. The plant communities are also discussed in terms of their distribution elsewhere in south-eastern Australia, with particular emphasis given to the NSW North Coast where compatible vegetation mapping has been undertaken in many additional areas. Floristic relationships are also examined by numerical analysis of full-floristics and foliage cover data for 48 sites. A comprehensive list of vascular plant taxa is presented, and significant taxa are discussed. Management issues relating to the vegetation of the reserves are outlined. Introduction The study area Booti Booti National Park (1586 ha) and Yahoo Nature Reserve (48 ha) are situated on the lower North Coast of New South Wales (32°15'S 152°32'E), immediately south of Forster in the Great Lakes local government area (Fig.

  • Booti Booti State Conservation Area Plan Of
    BOOTI BOOTI STATE RECREATION AREA PLAN OF MANAGEMENT National Parks and Wildlife Service New South Wales Sydney July, 1987 Written by: Alison Ramsay Cover Design by: Gary Bridle Word Processor Operator: Corinne Dunwoody Recognition is made of the substantial contribution of the consultant, Bob Robertson of the Centre for Leisure and Tourism Studies, and the Booti Booti State Recreation Area Trust in the preparation of the draft plan of management. ISBN 0 7305 2043 9 FOREWORD Booti Booti State Recreation Area includes the narrow sand barrier which separates Wallis Lake and the Pacific Ocean as well as the spectacular headlands of Cape Hawke to the north of Booti Hill and Charlotte Head to the south. Although much of the coastal barrier has been sand mined, Booti Booti State Recreation Area retains extensive areas of coastal heath and palm forest, and smaller areas of rainforest. The beaches and lakeshore of Booti Booti State Recreation Area have long been an important recreational resource. The expansion of Tuncurry-Forster to the north of the State Recreation Area and the Pacific Palms area to the south have, however, placed increasing recreational pressure on the area. There has also been increased demands from urban centres such as Sydney and Newcastle for weekend and holiday destinations within easy travel distance. The plan of management provides for further low key, recreational facilities within a natural setting. Such facilities will complement those provided in nearby towns and other parks and reserves within the local area. It also provides for the development of facilities for the elderly and handicapped, and for information to be provided to the public on the natural features of the State Recreation Area.
