Terrace Reserve 8 Giving Back Protecting our natural heritage Reflections Holiday Parks aren't like other NSW caravan parks because each one of our 37 parks are perfectly positioned on prime NSW Crown land. That makes us the managers of the jewels in NSW's Crown. Our role ensures the economic and environmental sustainability of these precious resources. The holiday parks and recreational reserves are enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. Whether it’s protecting the land, building cabins with low environmental footprints planting new trees, installing new boardwalks or building playgrounds, our aim is to protect and revive nature and delight visitors and the local communities we serve. All Reflections surplus funds are used to enhance our parks Our parks directly contribute to the well-being of local communities. Our visitors to our parks spend $70M directly into local business every year. In addition, we employ local trades who build and maintain recreation facilities. We also provide destinations for important community events like markets and sports within the 40 public reserves we manage across the state. These community open space reserves are maintained by us at no cost to the taxpayer or rate payer. Our developments not only benefit paying guests but provide public facilities for locals and visitors. Recognising the significance of our public reserves to local aboriginal communities and custodians, and helping share those stories, is just another way we’re making a positive connection. Whichever park you visit, you’ll see that giving back is in our nature. 9 Jimmys Beach 10 FAR NOrTH CoaSt Byron Bay 11 FAR TWEED HEADS FERRY RESERVE BRUNSWICK MASSY GREENE rTH HEADS TERRACE RESERVE NO CLARKES BEACH BYRON BAY aSt LENNOX HEAD Co LISMORE SHAWS BAY BALLINA EVANS HEAD In the sun drenched northernmost corner of NSW, this beautiful part of the world blends stunning surf YAMBA beaches and iconic townships with spectacular scenery. 12 There are plenty of good reasons why many Aussie celebrities call this amazing place 'home'.

  • Coffs Harbour Sediment Modelling and Investigation
    COFFS HARBOUR SEDIMENT MODELLING AND INVESTIGATION Luke McAvoy Undergraduate Engineer (Civil) Griffith School of Engineering, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Australia Daniel Rodger Senior Engineer Water Technology Pty Ltd, Brisbane, Australia ________________________________________________________________________ Abstract Water Technology has teamed with Griffith University as a part of the Industrial Affiliates Program to complete a Sediment Modelling Investigation for Coffs Harbour. The harbour at Coffs Harbour has been infilling with sediment since breakwall construction and reclamation linked two nearshore islands with the mainland in the 1920s, interrupting the Longshore Sediment Transport (LST) pathway. The harbour has become a sand sink; sand is entering the harbour and then cannot be removed by natural processes. Following on from previous reports from Carley (2005) and Lord (1984), the investigation has used the latest numerical modelling software, volumetric analysis programs and analytical methods for LST estimation to investigate the effects of the harbour on sediment transport. The effect of the breakwall orientation on wave height and particle velocity for different incident wave directions was investigated using a MIKE 21 Flexible-Mesh Spectral Wave model. The model predicted bottom water particle velocities throughout the harbour and mapped potential accumulation hotspots and sediment pathways. Bathymetric surveys spreading 118 years were analysed with the volumetric analysis program 12D Model. The results showed sand accumulating within the harbour in the lee of the eastern breakwall after its construction, as predicted in the MIKE model. This shoal built up to a uniform level before extending across the entire width of the harbour. Each periodic bathymetric comparison showed the sediment extending further within the harbour as a „wave‟.

Target outcome: To foster employment and retention of more young people by providing careers advice on local industries with employment potential, linked with more available traineeships and apprenticeships. Key points: - Our region’s youth unemployment rate is 50% higher than the NSW state average. - There is a decline in the number of apprenticeships being offered in the region. - The current school based traineeship process is overly complicated for students, teachers and employers.

  • Solitary Islands Marine Park Guide
    Solitary Islands Marine Park Guide The NSW marine environment is one of our state’s greatest natural assets and Introduction needs to be managed for the greatest wellbeing of the community, now and into the future. The NSW Solitary Islands Marine Park was the first marine park declared in NSW. Located on the Coffs Coast, the park covers more than 70,000 hectares and 100 kilometres of coastline from the northern side of Muttonbird Island at Coffs Harbour north to Plover Island at the entrance to the Sandon River. It extends from the mean high water mark and upper tidal limits of coastal estuaries and lakes, seaward to the three nautical mile limit of NSW waters and includes the entire seabed. The Solitary Islands Marine Park (Commonwealth waters) covers 15,200 hectares on the seaward side of the NSW Solitary Islands Marine Park, out to the 50 metre depth contour. The Solitary Islands Marine Park (Commonwealth waters) is managed in partnership by the NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) Fisheries and Parks Australia. The NSW Solitary Islands Marine Park management rules protect the marine biodiversity of the area while supporting a wide range of social, cultural and economic values. This guide and accompanying map summarise the management rules for the NSW Solitary Islands Marine Park. For information on Solitary Islands Marine Park (Commonwealth waters) management zones please refer to the map that accompanies this guide or contact Parks Australia. 2 SOLITARY ISLANDS MARINE PARK (NSW) & SOLITARY ISLANDS MARINE PARK (COMMONWEALTH WATERS) GUIDE provides opportunities for swimming, surfing, snorkelling, Unique environmental diving, boating, fishing, walking, and panoramic ocean vistas.

  • New Australian and Australian State Lichen and Lichenicolous Lichen Reports
    J Hattori Bot. Lab. No. 90: 269- 291 (July. 2001) NEW AUSTRALIAN AND AUSTRALIAN STATE LICHEN AND LICHENICOLOUS LICHEN REPORTS 1 2 3 4 D. ALLEN , H. T. LUMBSCH , S. MADDEN AND H. SrPMAN ABSTRACT. Based on recent acquisitions of the Australian National Herbarium since 1982, mainly the collections of J.A.Elix and H.Streimann, new distribution data are presented for 162 species. This includes 31 species new to Australia: Acarospora reagens, Co/lema fragrans, Cyphelium australe, Dictyonema ligulatum, Dimerella pineti, Diploschistes farinosus, D. gyrophoricus, Dirinaria compli­ cata, Heterodermia isidiophora, Hyperphyscia pruinosa, Megalospora atrorubicans ssp. atrorubi­ cans, Myriotrema bahianum, M. compunctum, M. terebratulum, Ocellularia aurata, 0. berkeleyana, Ochrolechia africana, Opegrapha .filicina, 0. phylloporinae, Peltula marginata, Physcia dimidiata, Porina sphaerocephala, Porpidia cinereoatra, Pyrenula corticata, Pyxine cylindrica, Thelotrema platysporum, Thyrea confusa, Trapelia involuta, Trichothelium triseptatum, Trypethelium aeneum, Umbilicaria nylanderiana. Most of these are tropical taxa, found in Queensland. The other species are newly recorded for one or more Australian states. Seventeen years have elapsed since the last significant report (Elix & Streimann 1982) of new lichen records based on collections held at the Cryptogamic Herbarium of the Aus­ tralian National Herbarium (CANB). However, interesting and significant finds have been reported by various authors in revisions and in the Australasian Lichenology (formerly Australiasian Lichenological Newsletter) with many of these reports based on CANB col­ lections. The CANB collections have grown significantly since 1982 with the donation by Prof. J.A. Elix of his lichen collections and the continuing collecting program to northern Aus­ tralia which have added significantly to the knowledge of Australian lichenology.
