This may include rainwater, stormwater, creek/river water and recycled water. Blackwater: Sewage or water discharged from toilets and kitchen sinks. Catchment: An area that drains to a given point, typically drainage is dictated by topography but may be modified by man-made structures including drains and canals. Desalinated Water: Potable water that is produced by removing salt and other minerals from seawater or brackish water. Directly connected impervious (DCI): the proportion of the impervious surface of a catchment that is directly connected to a stream through a conventional drainage connection. It is an established indicator of the likely degradation of ecological health in urban waterways due to stormwater. Evapotranspiration: The combined processes of evaporation (i.e. the transfer of water from the land to the atmosphere) and transpiration (i.e. the transfer of water from plants to the atmosphere). Green Roofs: Green roofs consist of a growing medium, typically soil, and vegetation placed on a roof surface. The vegetation and soil soak up rainfall and in the process reduce runoff and pollutants entering the stormwater drainage network. Green roofs may be extensive (i.e. thin growing media that only support small plants) or intensive (i.e. deep growing media that supports large shrubs and even trees). Green Walls: A wall that is partially or completely covered with vegetation, this vegetation is supported by a growing medium such as soil.

CONCLUSION 22 REFERENCES 23 APPENDIX – SUMMARY OF FAUNA OBSERVATIONS 25 Executive Summary Recommendation A75 of Manningham City Council’s Green Wedge Strategy was to conduct a study into the location and effectiveness of existing habitat corridors and the opportunities for improving mobility of wildlife across the Manningham landscape. We conducted this study in 2006-8 and expanded it to include an investigation of the mobility of fauna in areas other than corridors. This document reports the outcomes of the project and its relevance to Council. A literature survey found that most quantitative demonstrations of the usage of corridors by wildlife anywhere in the world have involved costly and demanding methods beyond Council’s resources, such as genetic analyses and radio tracking. New methods of fieldwork were therefore developed for our project, taking advantage of what has been learned by previous studies of wildlife movements.

EJA undertakes litigation, law and policy reform, campaigns and community legal education. YRKA is a nongovernmental organisation that was established in order to provide a ‘voice’ for the Yarra River and its communities. YRKA has engaged extensively for more than a decade on campaigning, policy reform and community engagement for the protection, improvement and restoration of the River. EJA and YRKA have worked closely and collaboratively for law and policy reform for the Yarra River since 2014.
