  • Who Does What in Water in Gippsland 2021 Acknowledgement
    Who does what in water in Gippsland 2021 Acknowledgement The West Gippsland Catchment Management Authority would like to acknowledge and pay our respects to the Traditional Land Owners and other indigenous people within the catchment area: the Gunaikurnai, the Bunurong and Boon Wurrung, and the Wurundjeri peoples. We also recognise the contribution of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and organisations in Land and Natural Resource Management. Overview Across Gippsland there are a number of Government agencies and community groups that work together to protect our catchments and waterways and to manage water resources, supply and demand. Sometimes their boundaries overlap, but each organisation has quite a different role and offers different services. This brochure aims to inform members of the community of the major roles and responsibilities of each agency with respect to water. The following pages contain information about each organisation responsible for caring for water in the Gippsland region including their responsibilities, boundaries and contact details. Breakdown of Organisation types Water Catchment Southern Corporations Management Rural Water Authorities Agriculture Traditional Local Victoria Owners EPA Government Who does what in water 2020 / 1 Who does what Regional Urban Water Corporations • Collection of wastewater from residential and commercial customers • Treatment of wastewater before returning clean water to the environment • Supply potable water and wastewater services to homes in a city or town through a reticulated system • Manage and monitor potable water use in a city or town Southern Rural Water • Authorises and regulates licensed use of water from waterways, dams and bores for domestic and stock use, irrigation and commercial purposes • Manages large storages and surrounding recreation areas such as Blue Rock Lake, Cowwarr Weir and Glenmaggie Weir.

  • MEDIA RELEASE for Immediate Release
    MEDIA RELEASE For Immediate Release 23 January 2017 Alpine Resorts Governance Reform Discussion paper On the 1st January 2017, the Southern Alpine Resort Management Board became the committee of management for both Lake Mountain and Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resorts replacing the previous individual boards. Today the Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change Lily D’Ambrosio released a Discussion Paper: Alpine Resorts Governance Reform in which the paper outlines the approach to improving the governance of the alpine sector. The paper and links to key documents are available on Engage Victoria’s website: https://engage.vic.gov.au/alpine-resort- futures/governance Importantly to note, this reform process is an element of a wider sectoral reform program, including the Southern Alpine Resorts Reform Project. Government has been provided with the initial project report for Mount Baw Baw and Lake Mountain 2030 in late 2016 and has requested additional work from the Southern Alpine Resort Management Board that is due to be submitted by 10 February for consideration by the Minister. The government has informed the board that it is committed to making decisions about Lake Mountain and Mount Baw Baw Alpine Resorts as soon as practicable after receiving this supplementary report. The board has considered and discussed the Discussion Paper and intends to develop a formal written submission which it is committed to lodging by the closing date 17 February, 2017. The board invites you to consider the governance reform Discussion Paper and encourage stakeholders the opportunity to either submit a response to the questions in the discussion paper on the Engage Victoria website or to the board.

  • L1 Aboriginal English and Standard Australian English Responses to a Prelateral Merger-In-Progress
    What reaction times reveal about listener groups: L1 Aboriginal English and Standard Australian English responses to a prelateral merger-in-progress Deborah Loakes, Janet Fletcher, John Hajek and Joshua Clothier School of Languages and Linguistics, The University of Melbourne Correspondence: Deborah Loakes, [email protected] In Australian English, a sound change is in progress where /el/->/æl/. This is restricted, and occurs: 1. Geographically - there is an isogloss in the southern-most region of south-east Australia, and; 2. Diachronically - while not solely related to speaker age, previous research (Loakes et al., 2014) has shown that older speakers are more likely to maintain an /el-/æl/ distinction. Previously, we have analysed this merger as a consequence of (mis)perception, where /el/->[ɛl]->/æl/. Our early work has shown that in the Standard Australian English speaking community where this sound change is present, production and perception are correlated but not aligned (Loakes et al. 2014). In production, variability pre-laterally is extremely high. Some speakers have completely merged vowels in words such as hell-Hal, while others have very open [ɛl]-like productions of /el/ sequences. There is also a marked difference between older and younger speakers, with younger speakers having expanded vowel spaces in the F1 dimension (see also Cox 2006). In places where this prelateral merger occurs there is variation within the community, and also with the way the merger presents. People who merge in production tend to do so in perception, but not always. Likewise those who do not merge sometimes show confusion when identifying /el/-/æl/.
