Vol 3 A21 Soil Water Assessment Download BANGO WIND FARM ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT APPENDIX 21 Bango Wind Farm Water and Soil Assessment Bango Wind Farm Pty Ltd VOLUME 3 UPDATES TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT During the preparation of this Environmental Impact Statement, a number of changes occurred. Please consider these changes while reviewing this Appendix. · The Assessment Type of the Bango Wind Farm has transitioned from Part 3A, after its repeal, and is now being assessed as a State Significant Development under Part 4 of the EP&A Act. Any reference to a Part 3A assessment in attached technical assessments may be disregarded, and considered as State Significant Development; · Rugby Wind Farm, a wind farm that was proposed to the north of the Project has been withdrawn. Where references are made to cumulative impacts with the Rugby Wind Farm, please disregard these; · Slight changes have occurred to the Rye Park Wind Farm layout, a wind farm under development to the east of the Project. The changes made to the layout are not significant and therefore sit within the cumulative impact assessment undertaken for this EIS. The revised layout has been considered in the Environmental Noise Assessment and Landscape Visual Impact Assessment. Where further references are made to the Rye Park Wind Farm layout, these will be incorporated into future documentation where required; · Four turbines at the south east extent of the Project, situated in the Mt Buffalo cluster have been removed through consultation with landowners. This change has been highlighted in maps and a review of all technical assessments has deemed that the removal of the four turbines has resulted in a reduced. This change will be incorporated into future documentation. These wind turbines are identified as “removed wind turbines” in the Project maps in Volume 2; and · A number of changes were made to the residence information for the Project, as a result of construction of houses and change in occupancy status of existing buildings. These changes have been incorporated into the EIS.

On prouve que Hn 1 en probabilité, où Hn est le nombre de Horton-Strahler. INTRODUCTION In 1960, Fredkin [9] coined the term trie for an efficient data structure to store and vetrieve strings. These were further developed and modified by Knuth [4], Larson [16], Fagin, Nievergelt, Pippenger and Strong [6], Litwin [17], Aho, Hopcroft and Ullman [1] and others.

  • Chapter 18: Lachlan River Catchment
    18 Lachlan River Catchment Maitland Mercury & Hunter River Advertiser, 5 April 1862 True Tales of the Trout Cod: River Histories of the Murray-Darling Basin 18-1 The Lachlan (From the Empire’s Correspondent) March 30 – The continued absence of rain causing stoppage of the puddling machines for want of water, is the sole reason of the small escort leaving tomorrow. As before stated, the river, one mile distant, is tabooed for washing purposes to the last dregs, so that the returns per escort will diminish until we are blessed with the winter’s rain. Great quantities of fish have this week been picked up by hand out of the bed of the lagoon between the Victoria and Caledonian loads, some of the codfish weighing over 30 pounds weight, besides bream, perch and jewfish, the latter being one of the oddest of the finny tribe, presenting the appearance of half newt, with porpoise head and feelers round the mouth. This fish deposits its ova in a gravelly cell on the bottom using stones of upwards of a pound weight in their construction (as a blackfellow asserts). Certain it is that little mounds, of beehive form, abound in this lagoon, containing gravel.

    JOINT COPY PROJECT Society of Australian Genealogists – Sydney National Library of Australia - Canberra Mitchell Library – Sydney CHURCH AND PARISH REGISTERS 0219 Anglican Church Diocese of Canberra & Goulburn Item Type Title Frame Note: S.A.G. Reel 0219 continues the filming of parish registers of the Anglican Church Diocese of Canberra and Goulburn. The parishes of the Diocese are arranged alphabetically and have been filmed in sequence, except for Wagga Wagga and West Goulburn which will be filmed shortly. For parish registers already microfilmed see S.A.G. Reels 0044 – 0052; 0150 – 0156; 0174 – 0176; 0178 – 0179; 0189; 0212 – 0214. See the catalogue sheets for the contents of these reels. The original registers are held by the Manuscript Section, Australian Reference, National Library of Australia, Canberra. St. Clement's Church Yass, N.S.W. Yass is one of the oldest parishes in the diocese. Before the Rev. Robert Cartwright was licenced to the then vast District of Yass in March 1838, the area had been visited by the Rev. John Vincent of Sutton Forrest. Mr Cartwright was first based at Arkstone Forest near Boorowa; by the end of 1838 Queanbeyan and Yass had become separate parishes, the Rev. Charles F. Brigstocke being appointed to Yass where he remained for 20 years. The foundation stone of the present church of St. Clement (designed by Edmund Blacket & later enlarged) was laid in 1847.
