Welcome to Yirrganydji (and Djabugay) Country. We hope that you enjoy your stay. Please keep our environment clean and healthy and we wish you a safe journey on our traditional country. We also wish to acknowledge the elders and families of the Yirrganydji, Djabuganydji, Buluwai, Nyagali, and Guluy Peoples. The bountiful tropical waters surrounding Cairns sustained the Indigenous Peoples who first came to this naturally blessed region many years ago. The magical combination of ancient rainforest, protected mangrove systems and monsoonal rain that fed the inland rivers of the Gulf Savannah provided pristine breeding grounds and protection for many native species including barramundi, bream, jewfish, grunter, catfish, cod, eels, turtles, prawns, crayfish, oysters and periwinkles. Today these waters sustain a vibrant tourism industry that welcomes visitors from all over the world to experience the natural beauty of this iconic destination. The Great Barrier Reef continues to provide fishing experiences of a life time and thanks to the introduction of an extensive inshore Net Free Zone in 2015 the fish here are growing in numbers and size. It’s amped up fishing on another scale!

  • Chapter 2: the Cairns Setting
    CHAPTER 2: THE CAIRNS SETTING Introduction Cairns is the most northerly of Queensland’s cities and one of the fastest growing communities in Australia. It is also an isolated community, located some 1 400 km in a direct line, or 1 706 km by road, from Brisbane. Melbourne is marginally closer to Brisbane than is Cairns. An aerial image of Cairns city and inner suburbs viewed from the east is shown in Figure 2.1 (reproduced by permission of Brian Cassey Photography). The 160 square kilometre area administered by Cairns City Council has a resident population of approximately 120 000. This total can exceed 150 000 at the height of the tourist season in July- August. This combination of size, rapid growth and isolation, together with its significant history of natural hazard events (most notably cyclones and floods) makes Cairns an ideal community on which to base a case study of urban vulnerability to a range of geohazards. Community risk research on Cairns commenced under the TCCIP in 1995 with a particular focus on the risks associated with storm tide inundation. That effort provided an ideal base on which to develop the wider community risk research described in this report. The Physical Setting Topography: The major structural features of the Cairns area are shown in Figure 2.2. The dominant feature is the very steep coastal scarp that forms the eastern edge of the Atherton Tableland. That scarp is marked by (from south to north) the Isley Hills, the Lamb Range and the McAlister Range. The Whitfield Range is an offshoot from the Lamb Range and separated from it by the valley of Freshwater Creek.

For the purposes of this chapter, the study area is defined as the area where landside infrastructure upgrades will occur, as shown in Figure B6.1a. The project area terminates at the coastline with the coastal and tidal environments addressed separately in Chapter B3, Coastal Processes, Chapter B4, Marine Sediment Quality and Chapter B5, Marine Water Quality. B6.2 Methodology and Assumptions B6.2.1 Methodology This assessment is based on a desktop study and entailed the following tasks: • A review of the relevant legislation and policy • A review of environmental values and water quality objectives for Trinity Inlet • A review of available Geographical Information System (GIS) datasets including topographical information, watercourses, geology, vegetation and land use • A review of background information for the project including weather information from the Bureau of Meteorology, local government websites and other publications, as detailed below inSection B6.2.1.1.

  • Chapter 7: Cyclone Risks
    CHAPTER 7: CYCLONE RISKS The Cyclone Threat There is little doubt that tropical cyclones pose the greatest natural threat overall to Cairns. Since the settlement was founded in 1876 there have been at least 53 cyclones that have had a reported or measured impact on the city, indeed the cyclone of 8 March 1878 almost destroyed the settlement before it had a chance to get established. An inventory of those cyclones, based largely on an historical listing compiled from many sources by the Bureau of Meteorology’s Queensland Regional Office in Brisbane, is included in Appendix J. Of the 53 cyclones included in Appendix J, 22 have either crossed, or approached, the coast within 75 km of Cairns. A further 14 cyclones have approached to between 75 and 150 km of the city. An approach to within 75 km would bring Cairns within the radius of destructive winds of most cyclones. This reality is in marked contrast to the view held in some quarters in Cairns that the city does not have a significant cyclone threat. A good example of this urban myth was provided in a letter to the Editor of the Cairns Post on 14 May 1998, in which the author opined: After 120 years of records and 11 cyclones, we have never had a higher than normal tide, let alone a storm surge. Even the severe cyclone of 1986 which crossed the coast south of Innisfail with winds of up to 250-plus km/h, did not cause a surge or even a high tide. The reef being so close to the coast will always act as a damper, and the mountains around Cairns always keep the winds to a maximum of 190 km/h.
