Assessment of Wetland Invertebrate and Fish Biodiversity for the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy (Gss)
ASSESSMENT OF WETLAND INVERTEBRATE AND FISH BIODIVERSITY FOR THE GNANGARA SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY (GSS) Bea Sommer, Pierre Horwitz and Pauline Hewitt Centre for Ecosystem Management Edith Cowan University, Joondalup WA 6027 Final Report to the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation November 2008 Assessment of wetland invertebrate and fish biodiversity for the GSS (Final Report) November 2008 This document has been commissioned/produced as part of the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy (GSS). The GSS is a State Government initiative which aims to provide a framework for a whole of government approach to address land use and water planning issues associated with the Gnangara groundwater system. For more information go to www.gnangara.water.wa.gov.au i Assessment of wetland invertebrate and fish biodiversity for the GSS (Final Report) November 2008 Executive Summary This report sought to review existing sources of information for aquatic fauna on the Gnangara Mound in order to: • provide a synthesis of the richness, endemism, rarity and habitat specificity of aquatic invertebrates in wetlands; • identify gaps in aquatic invertebrate data on the Gnangara Mound; • provide a synthesis of the status of freshwater fishes on the Gnangara Mound; • assess the management options for the conservation of wetlands and wetland invertebrates. The compilation of aquatic invertebrate taxa recorded from wetlands on both the Gnangara Mound and Jandakot Mound) between 1977 and 2003, from 18 studies of 66 wetlands, has revealed a surprisingly high richness considering the comparatively small survey area and the degree of anthropogenic alteration of the plain. The total of over 550 taxa from 176 families or higher order taxonomic levels could be at least partially attributed to sampling effort. -

However, for a variety of reasons the editors of most of these journals are unwilling to accept articles that are lengthy or contain information that is preliminary in nature. Nevertheless, much material of this type is of interest and value to other scientists, administrators or planners and should be published. The Resource Management Technical Report series is an avenue for the dissemination of preliminary or lengthy material relevant the management of natural resources. -

Of the report's boundary recommendations for metropolitan Perth, Local Government Minister Tony Simpson has accepted all but two, those for the City of Perth/City of Vincent and the proposed City of Riversea, which includes five western suburbs councils. The Minister has rejected the Board’s recommendation for the City of Perth, on the basis that key icons such as The University of Western Australia (UWA) and the Queen Elizabeth II Medical Centre (QEII), were not included. As a result of the flow-on effects from City of Perth changes, he has also rejected the recommendation for the proposed City of Riversea, which includes five western suburbs councils. -

The region has a Mediteerranean climate and houses 13 native, obligate freshwater macrofauna species (i.e. fishes, decapod crustaceans and a bivalve mol- lusc), four of which are listed as threatened under State and/or Commonwealth leg- islation. The most imperiled species are the Margaret River Burrowing Crayfish (Engaewa pseudoreducta) and Hairy Marron (Cherax tenuimanus), both of which are endemic to the Margaret River catchment and listed as critically endangered (also by the IUCN), and Balston’s Pygmy Perch (Nannatherina balstoni) which is vulner- able. The region also houses several fishes that may represent neew, endemic taxa based on preliminary molecular evidence. Freshwater ecosystems in the region face numerous threats including global climate change, a growing huuman population, introduced species, destructive land uses, riparian degradation, waater abstraction, declinning environmental flows, instream barriers, and fire. -

City of Stirling Submission
Reducing the Regulatory Burden on Business Taskforce Inquiry City of Stirling Submission In cooperation with the Stirling Business Association JOHN McILHONE Economic Development Business Analyst November 2005 Administration Centre 25 Cedric Street Stirling WA 6021 www.stirling.wa.gov.au Tel. 08 9345 8599 Mob. 0419 195 715 Email. [email protected] BACKGROUND The City of Stirling is the largest Local Authority Council in Western Australia by population. It covers an area of approximately 100 km² in metropolitan Perth and lies about 8 Kilometres North of the Perth CBD. Stirling has key industrial areas at Balcatta, Herdsman and Osborne Park with 11,500 small businesses located within the City, representing 11% of the State's small business, a significant concentration of employment and employers. All these areas are well serviced by major arterial roads with links to the Mitchell Freeway providing easy access to the Perth CBD, Perth Airport and Fremantle as well as the main highways leading north, south and east of the State. The northern suburban rail service from Perth, which runs up the centre of the freeway, passes through the City with stations at Glendalough — servicing Osborne Park and Scarborough Beach; Stirling — servicing the strategic regional centre and complemented by links to an extensive suburban bus network. Warwick station is another well patronised rail inter-change on the northern boarder of the City's boundary. The City is well serviced by regional shopping centres at Karrinyup and Mirrabooka. These centres serve both the local and wider community in the Perth northern corridor. The City also boasts a wide choice of residential areas, from the coastal suburbs of Waterman’s Bay, North Beach, Trigg and Scarborough through to the heritage areas of Mt. -

4.4 Key Environmental Factor – Inland Waters the ESD for the Proposal Refers to the EPA Factors “Hydrological Processes” and “Inland Waters Environmental Quality”
Bindoon Bypass Environmental Review Document | Preliminary Documentation 4.4 Key Environmental Factor – Inland Waters The ESD for the Proposal refers to the EPA factors “Hydrological Processes” and “Inland Waters Environmental Quality”. On 27 June 2018, the EPA combined these two factors into the new “Inland Waters” environmental factor. The Proponent has chosen to align the ERD with the current EPA environmental factors and present the information required by the ESD under the heading of “Inland Waters”. 4.4.1 EPA Objective To maintain the hydrological regimes and quality of groundwater and surface water so that environmental values are protected. 4.4.2 Policy and Guidance The following EPA policy and guidance have been considered during the preparation of this ERD and the supporting technical studies: • Statement of environmental principles, factors and objectives (EPA 2016a) • Environmental factor guideline – hydrological processes (EPA 2016h) • Environmental factor guideline – inland waters environmental quality (EPA 2016i) • Environmental factor guideline – inland waters (EPA 2018b). Other policy and guidance considered during the preparation of this ERD and the supporting technical studies includes: • Geomorphic wetlands of the Swan Coastal Plain dataset (DBCA 2016) • Hydrogeological reporting associated with a groundwater well licence (DoW 2009) • Stormwater management manual for WA (DoW 2004) • State planning policy 2.9: water resources (WAPC 2006) • Guidelines for treatment of stormwater runoff from the road infrastructure (Austroads 2003) • Roads near sensitive water resources (DoW 2006a) • Australian and New Zealand guidelines for fresh and marine water quality (ANZECC & ARMCANZ 2000) • WA environmental offsets policy (Government of WA 2011) • WA environmental offsets guidelines (Government of WA 2014a) • WA environmental offsets template (Government of WA 2014b). -
Proposed Amendment No.188 to City of Swan Local Planning Scheme
Ordinary Meeting of Council 06 May 2020 3.1 PROPOSED AMENDMENT NO.188 TO CITY OF SWAN LOCAL PLANNING SCHEME NO.17 - TO REMOVE VARIOUS LAND IN SOUTH GUILDFORD, ASCOT AND REDCLIFFE FROM THE SCHEME IN RESPONSE TO CITY OF BELMONT LOCAL PLANNING SCHEME AMENDMENT NO.11 Ward: (No Wards) (Statutory Planning) Disclosure of Interest: Nil Authorised Officer: (Executive Manager Planning and Development) KEY ISSUES • In December 2017 'Local Government (Belmont and Swan - Change of Boundaries) Order 2017' came into effect, which transferred approximately 12ha of land in South Guildford, Ascot and Redcliffe from the City of Swan to the City of Belmont. • The City of Belmont is seeking comment on their advertised Amendment No.11 to its Local Planning Scheme No.15 which, amongst other matters, seeks to: o Update their scheme's boundaries to include all land that was transferred from City of Swan to City of Belmont as part of the above 2017 Order. o Provide City of Belmont's local zones to this land, where required. This will result in Lot 2 Apac Way, South Guildford and Lot 3 Great Eastern Highway, Redcliffe being entirely zoned 'Industrial' and Lot 301 Great Eastern Highway, Ascot being entirely zoned 'Mixed Use'. • Staff have no objection to the City of Belmont's proposal as this land is no longer within the City of Swan and the proposed zones are considered logical. • With City of Belmont updating its scheme, it is timely for the City of Swan to take steps to update its Scheme to omit this same land. This is the purpose of proposed Amendment No.188 to City of Swan Local Planning Scheme No.17 (LPS17).
