Aquatic Ecosystem Condition Reports
Water quality Information Sheet Aquatic ecosystem condition reports 2011 panel assessment of creeks and rivers in the Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges NRM region Issued September 2012 EPA984/12: This information sheet describes the outcome of the panel assessment of creeks and rivers in the Adelaide and Mount Lofty Ranges, NRM region based on monitoring data collected in 2011. Introduction The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) coordinates a monitoring, evaluation and reporting (MER) program on the aquatic ecosystem condition of South Australian creeks and rivers. This MER program is designed to meet several objectives: • Providing a statewide monitoring framework for creeks and rivers that revolves through the NRM regions with sufficient frequency to allow for State of the Environment Reporting purposes. • Describing aquatic ecosystem condition for broad general public understanding. • Identifying the key pressures and management responses to those pressures. • Providing a useful reporting format that can support environmental decision making within government, community and industry. This information sheet provides a summary of the scientific work used in assessing monitoring data from creeks and rivers. Aquatic ecosystem science is not always rigid and precise; it is often open to different interpretations in several respects. Therefore, the EPA has decided that the best way to assess the condition of streams is through an expert panel deliberation that uses a consistent descriptive modelling approach. The panel members comprised an environmental consultant, a biologist from the biomonitoring team at the Australian Water Quality Centre (AWQC), and two biologists from the EPA (the authors of this assessment). All have at least 10 years experience in monitoring and assessing a range of streams across South Australia. -

Numerous basin aquifers in arid and semi-arid data indicate that not only the Quaternary aquifers but also regions of the world derive a significant portion of their the deeper Tertiary aquifers are recharged through MFR and recharge from adjacent mountains. Such recharge can ef- not MBR. It is expected that this finding will have a signif- fectively occur through either stream infiltration in the icant impact on the management of water resources in the mountain-front zone (mountain-front recharge, MFR) or sub- region. This study demonstrates the relevance of using hy- surface flow from the mountain (mountain-block recharge, draulic head, chloride and EC data to distinguish between MBR). -

4 December2019 Mr Michael Lennon Chairperson State Planning Commission By email: [email protected] Dear Mr Lennon Submission: Re: Draft Planning and Design Code – Sturt Highway, Kingsford 1.0 INTRODUCTION This submission has been prepared by MasterPlan SA Pty Ltd on behalf of JW & LD Phillips and Ian McDonald in relation to land (subject land) located at Sturt Highway, Kingsford which is currently located in the Primary Production Zone, General Farming Policy Area and Horticulture Precinct of the Light Regional Council Development Plan. The Draft Planning and Design Code – Phase 2 Rural Areas Consultation document transitions the existing zoning into a Rural (Horticulture) Zone. The following review describes the subject land in relation to the surrounding area which is shown in the Land Tenure Site Plan in Attachment A. The subject land is wedged between the northern boundary of Hewitt, the Sturt Highway, the Kingsford Industrial Estate, the North Para River and the Eastick Dam. The land is of poor quality and not suitable for agriculture and horticulture. There are buffer restrictions relating to the Kingsford Industrial Estate and there are also restrictions that apply to the adjoining residential area for farming purposes. Access restrictions for farm implements on Sturt Highway also make it extremely difficult for the properties to be farmed. The proponents have continuously been advocating for a change to the zoning and related policy of the subject land for approximately 20 years. A summary of the various -

Title of Project a Social and Cultural Investigation Of
Title of project A social and cultural investigation of women in the wine industry of South Australia Project Number TOL 01/01 Julie Holbrook Tolley Submitted December 2004 Abstract Women have made a significant contribution to wine production in South Australia, and their important role has been neglected by much of the community, including the media. Gradually their achievements are being recognised. In my research, interviews and a textual analysis of primary sources provided extensive and continuing evidence of women’s contribution in the wine industry from colonial days in the Barossa Valley to recent times on Kangaroo Island. Documentary evidence and the interviews indicate that women have been expected to work in various tasks outside the home, as well as managing the house and rearing children. The interviews I conducted with 25 women in the Barossa Valley, the Riverland and Kangaroo Island, over a wide range of occupations in the wine industry, indicate that they combined their work in the vineyards and wineries with their household tasks. The rural woman’s domain included the home paddock, the equivalent of the suburban backyard. Because of economic necessity the home paddock was extended to include seasonal work in the vineyard. Within families there was a variety of tasks carried out by all members, including children. Women such as Ann Jacob from the Barossa Valley took an essential part in establishing the wine industry. In the Riverland, women worked in Village Settlements in the late 1890s, and during World War I and World War II, they established vineyards as part of the Returned Soldiers Settlement Schemes. -
