  • Modernised High Frequency Communications System – Riverina Node
    Modernised High Frequency Communications System – Riverina node Recommended Citation Richard Tanter, "Modernised High Frequency Communications System – Riverina node", Australian Defence Facilities, November 02, 2013, https://nautilus.org/briefing-books/australian-defen- e-facilities/modernised-high-frequency-communications-system-riverina-node/ Introduction The Department of Defence has a cluster of communications facilities in the region of Wagga Wagga in the NSW Riverina, including the transmitter and receiver and elements of the Riverina node of the Modernised High Frequency Communications System (MHFCS), described by the local council as “home to some of the most advanced communication technology in the world.”[i] The two facilities, constructed in 2000-2001, separated by about 50 kms, are used by a number of different elements of the Australian Defence Force. For the Australian Defence Signals Directorate (ASD - formerly Defence Signals Directorate), the location of the Morundah Receiving Station means it is a key part of its high frequency communications monitoring and interception capacities directed at foreign military and government targets. The transmitter facility is at Lyndoch on the Collingully – Lockhart road, 35.6 kms due west of Wagga Wagga.[ii] The receiver facility is on the northern side of the Morundah – Boree Creek Road 15.7 km southeast of Morundah.[iii] Both the transmitter and receiving stations are operated remotely from the Network Management Facility at HMAS Harman Canberra (and a backup at Russell Offices).[iv] [caption id="attachment_33355" align="aligncenter" width="850"] 1 Figure 1.

  • Milling Configuration Changes at Coleambally and Deniliquin Mills
    15 April 2014 Dear Shareholder / Grower, RE: Milling configuration changes at Coleambally and Deniliquin Mills Earlier today we advised our employees at the Coleambally and Deniliquin Mills that operations would be reconfigured at these sites in response to the smaller rice crop currently being harvested across the Riverina. Over the coming months the Coleambally Mill operation will move from three shifts, five days per week, to one 10-hour shift, four days per week; while one of the two Deniliquin Mills will be scaled back from 24 hours, seven days, to 24 hours, five days per week. The second Mill at Deniliquin will remain at full capacity, operating 24 hours, seven days per week. While the smaller crop means a reduction in the level of production required at the Coleambally and Deniliquin sites, there will be no redundancies as a result of the changes. The 12 team members affected at Coleambally will be offered employment in SunRice’s Leeton plants, where milling operations remain at full capacity on 24 hours, seven days per week. The affected Deniliquin team members will be retained in other roles on site. To enable this to happen, a small number of contractors will be offered casual employment when their existing contract terms end. SunRice remains committed to the Coleambally and Deniliquin communities and we are very pleased to be able to offer all affected permanent staff ongoing employment to ensure their experience and skills are retained. Yours sincerely, GERRY LAWSON AM Chairman National Sales & Marketing Office Registered Office www.sunrice.com.au Level 2, 66 Clarence Street Sydney | NSW 2000 NIP 37 Yanco Avenue Leeton | NSW 2705 Ricegrowers Limited PO Box Q166 QVB Post Shop | NSW 1230 PO Box 561 Leeton | NSW 2705 ABN 55 007 481 156 T +61 (0)2 9268 2000 | F +61 (0)2 8916 8360 T +61 (0)2 6953 0411 | F +61 (0)2 8916 8350 trading as SunRice .
