    WATER COMPLIANCE REPORT 2018 - 2019 Water Year Water Report 2018 - 2019 1 ABOUT THIS REPORT COMPLYING WITH Since the Snowy Scheme’s completion in 1974, Snowy Hydro Limited has carefully managed the water that flows through the Scheme’s dams, tunnels, aqueducts and power stations in accordance with our OUR LICENCE water licence. This report outlines how we are managing the water that flows through the Scheme. Snowy Hydro complied with all of the requirements imposed upon the company under the Snowy Hydro operates a complex hydro-electric scheme utilising the water captured by the Scheme Snowy Water Licence during the 2018 - 19 water year, including each water release target to generate energy to meet the market’s needs, while also moving water from east to west to support relating to: irrigation districts. ● The Required Annual Release to the River Murray catchment. Each year, we have to reach certain targets for downstream and environmental water releases. Snowy ● The Required Annual Release to the Murrumbidgee River catchment. Hydro has operational flexibility day-to-day to strategically manage our generation and water releases while at the same time giving long-term security to the downstream users around annual water releases. ● Environmental releases into the Snowy River from Jindabyne Dam. In the Snowy Scheme, water releases and electricity generation are inseparably linked. ● Environmental releases into the Murrumbidgee River from Tantangara Dam. ● Environmental releases into the Goodradigbee River from Goodradigbee Aqueduct. Snowy Hydro is operated under the Snowy Water Licence, issued to us by the NSW Government. The licence has many legally-binding and enforceable obligations on the company.

  • Canberra Investment Corporation Googong Water Cycle Project Ecological Assessments - Terrestrial Flora and Fauna
    Canberra Investment Corporation Googong Water Cycle Project Ecological Assessments - Terrestrial Flora and Fauna Superb Parrot (Polytelis swainsonii) The Superb Parrot is listed as vulnerable under the EPBC Act and the TSC Act. The Superb Parrot occurs mostly in riparian forest or woodland and surrounding plains of the Murrumbidgee and Murray Rivers. It feeds mainly on the ground in Box-Gum Woodlands and wooded farmland within 10 km of the river, taking grass seeds and herbaceous plants, as well as fruit, insects, grain, flowers, nectar, berries and buds (DEC 2005q; Higgins 1999). It nests in hollows, usually in dead branches, but sometimes in holes in the trunk of a tall tree (Higgins 1999). The species is monogamous and is thought to maintain bonds year round (Higgins 1999). How is the proposal likely to affect the lifecycle of a threatened species and/or population? Some trees with hollows would be removed along Googong Dam Road and Old Cooma Road as a result of the proposal. The Superb Parrot has not been recorded in the study area, or within 10 km of the study area. This species is a rare breeding summer migrant to the ACT and is generally restricted to the northern parts near Hall, Gungahlin and Belconnen (Taylor, 1992) Competition for hollows in paddock areas is high, particularly from the Common Starling, which is abundant in the study area and has been observed nesting in tree hollows there. Given that the Superb Parrot has not been recorded in the area and wooded areas nearby contain better foraging and nesting habitat for this species than the study area, the removal of existing vegetation in the study area is not likely to affect the life cycle of the Superb Parrot.
