  • Implications for Tasmanian Electricity System of The
    Backroad Connections Pty Ltd ABN: 64 090 245 382 [email protected] (0407) 486-651 www.backroad.com.au Implications for the Tasmanian electricity system of the proposal to restore Lake Pedder July 2019 Overview The paper analyses the implication for the Tasmanian electricity system of the proposal by the Lake Pedder Restoration Committee (LPRC) to restore the original Lake Pedder. It provides information on the current contribution of the Gordon Scheme to Tasmanian electricity generation and energy storage and provides some information and estimates on alternatives to replace this generation if the original Lake Pedder was restored. Background The original Lake Pedder was flooded in 1972 as part of an expansion of the Tasmanian hydro-electric scheme. The flooded area created is still officially known as Lake Pedder although the LPRC prefer the name Huon- Serpentine Impoundment. In this paper we will use the term ‘new Lake Pedder’. The new Lake Pedder at 242 sq km is vastly bigger than the original Lake Pedder at 10 sq km. The new Lake Pedder does not have its own hydro-electric generation. Its purpose is to trap and raise the level of the water that would otherwise flow down the Huon and Serpentine rivers. The water is raised to the level where it flows through a channel created at McPartlan Pass into the Gordon Dam and contributes to the storage and generation of the Gordon Scheme. As a result the level of the new Lake Pedder does not vary more than a few metres. This makes it more visually attractive and more suitable for recreational use than the adjacent Gordon Reservoir.

  • Hydro 4 Water Storage
    TERM OF REFERENCE 3: STATE-WIDE WATER STORAGE MANAGEMENT The causes of the floods which were active in Tasmania over the period 4-7 June 2016 including cloud-seeding, State-wide water storage management and debris management. 1 CONTEXT 1.1 Cause of the Floods (a) It is clear that the flooding that affected northern Tasmania (including the Mersey, Forth, Ouse and South Esk rivers) during the relevant period was directly caused by “a persistent and very moist north-easterly airstream” which resulted in “daily [rainfall] totals [that were] unprecedented for any month across several locations in the northern half of Tasmania”, in some cases in excess of 200mm.1 (b) This paper addresses Hydro Tasmania’s water storage management prior to and during the floods. 1.2 Overview (a) In 2014, Tasmania celebrated 100 years of hydro industrialisation and the role it played in the development of Tasmania. Hydro Tasmania believes that understanding the design and purpose of the hydropower infrastructure that was developed to bring electricity and investment to the state is an important starting point to provide context for our submission. The Tasmanian hydropower system design and operation is highly complex and is generally not well understood in the community. We understand that key stakeholder groups are seeking to better understand the role that hydropower operations may have in controlling or contributing to flood events in Tasmania. (b) The hydropower infrastructure in Tasmania was designed and installed for the primary purpose of generating hydro-electricity. Flood mitigation was not a primary objective in the design of Hydro Tasmania’s dams when the schemes were developed, and any flood mitigation benefit is a by-product of their hydro- generation operation.

  • A Review of Geoconservation Values
    Geoconservation Values of the TWWHA and Adjacent Areas 3.0 GEOCONSERVATION AND GEOHERITAGE VALUES OF THE TWWHA AND ADJACENT AREAS 3.1 Introduction This section provides an assessment of the geoconservation (geoheritage) values of the TWWHA, with particular emphasis on the identification of geoconservation values of World Heritage significance. This assessment is based on: • a review (Section 2.3.2) of the geoconservation values cited in the 1989 TWWHA nomination (DASETT 1989); • a review of relevant new scientific data that has become available since 1989 (Section 2.4); and: • the use of contemporary procedures for rigorous justification of geoconservation significance (see Section 2.2) in terms of the updated World Heritage Criteria (UNESCO 1999; see this report Section 2.3.3). In general, this review indicates that the major geoconservation World Heritage values of the TWWHA identified in 1989 are robust and remain valid. However, only a handful of individual sites or features in the TWWHA are considered to have World Heritage value in their own right, as physical features considered in isolation (eg, Exit Cave). In general it is the diversity, extent and inter-relationships between numerous features, sites, areas or processes that gives World Heritage significance to certain geoheritage “themes” in the TWWHA (eg, the "Ongoing Natural Geomorphic and Soil Process Systems" and “Late Cainozoic "Ice Ages" and Climate Change Record” themes). This "wholistic" principle under-pinned the 1989 TWWHA nomination (DASETT 1989, p. 27; see this report Section 2.3.2), and is strongly supported by the present review (see discussion and justification of this principle in Section 2.2).

  • Appendix 13 Public
    BASSLINK INTEGRATED IMPACT ASSESSMENT STATEMENT POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF CHANGES TO HYDRO POWER GENERATION APPENDIX 13: GORDON RIVER PUBLIC USE ASSESSMENT Dr Lorne K. Kriwoken1 June 2001 Prepared for 1. Lecturer, Centre for Environmental Studies, University of Tasmania; GPO Box 252-78, Hobart, Tasmania 7001 Australia Appendix 13: Gordon River Public Use Assessment June 2001 Kriwoken EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The aim of this report is to ascertain the level of existing public use associated with the Gordon River and to make an assessment of how this level of public use may be potentially affected by Basslink. The greatest number of tourist and recreational users are concentrated in the Lower Gordon River corridor, downstream of the Franklin River confluence, in the Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area recreation zone. The major users of this reach of the Gordon River are cruise boats, float planes, rafters, kayakers, ocean kayakers, boaters and recreational fishers. The greatest number of tourists on the Lower Gordon River are the cruise boats with approximately 10,000 tourists per year. Rafters, kayakers, ocean kayakers and boater numbers represent approximately 600 to 800 per year. The number of tourists using float planes to gain access to the Lower Gordon River is approximately 2,000 per year. The number of recreational fishers is approximately 400 per year. The corridor of the Middle Gordon River, from the tailrace to the Franklin River confluence, is a wilderness zone. This reach immediately downstream of the Gordon Power Station is not used by tourists and does not readily support recreational activities. In some rare cases the Middle Gordon River is accessed from the tailrace immediately downstream of the Gordon Power Station or from the Denison River using rafts and/or kayaks.

  • COAG National Bushfire Inquiry
    Appendix D Fire history in Australia This appendix summarises the available information on major bushfire events in each state and territory as far back as records allow. There are many inconsistencies and gaps in the available information because there are no nationally agreed criteria for defining a ‘significant fire year’ or a ‘major fire event’. The available information shows the following: • Major fire events are a periodic feature in all states and territories. • The areas of land that are affected by fire continue to be significant. • There have been 59 recorded bushfire events where there has been loss of life, with a positive trend being the significant decline in the loss of life from bushfires in the last 20 years. • There have been 24 fire events resulting in major stock losses (defined as more than 1000 head). • There have been 21 fire events resulting in large-scale loss of houses (defined as more than 50 houses). Table D.1 Fire history in Australia, by state and territory No. of Area of fire Date deaths (ha) Losses Location(s) Northern Territory 1968–1969 40 000 000 Killarney – Top Springs 1969–1970 45 000 000 Dry River – Victoria River fire 1974–1975 45 000 000 Barkly Tableland, Victoria River district, near Newcastle Waters 2002 38 000 000 Queensland 1917 3 Large fires near Hughenden, followed by a fire on Warenda Station 1918 October 2 >100 000 sheep Fires spread over a huge area from Charleville to Blackall, Barcaldine, Hughenden 1918 October 5 Saltern Creek 1926 Forests, farms, sugar South-east corner of Queensland

  • DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28
    DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 DRAFT Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 Minister’s message It is my pleasure to release the Draft Tasmanian Inland Recreational Fishery Management Plan 2018-28 as the guiding document for the Inland Fisheries Service in managing this valuable resource on behalf of all Tasmanians for the next 10 years. The plan creates opportunities for anglers, improves access, ensures sustainability and encourages participation. Tasmania’s tradition with trout fishing spans over 150 years. It is enjoyed by local and visiting anglers in the beautiful surrounds of our State. Recreational fishing is a pastime and an industry; it supports regional economies providing jobs in associated businesses and tourism enterprises. A sustainable trout fishery ensures ongoing benefits to anglers and the community as a whole. To achieve sustainable fisheries we need careful management of our trout stocks, the natural values that support them and measures to protect them from diseases and pest fish. This plan simplifies regulations where possible by grouping fisheries whilst maintaining trout stocks for the future. Engagement and agreements with land owners and water managers will increase access and opportunities for anglers. The Tasmanian fishery caters for anglers of all skill levels and fishing interests. This plan helps build a fishery that provides for the diversity of anglers and the reasons they choose to fish.
