  • THE GARDENS REACH of the BRISBANE RIVER Kangaroo Point — Past and Present [By NORMAN S
    600 THE GARDENS REACH OF THE BRISBANE RIVER Kangaroo Point — Past and Present [By NORMAN S. PIXLEY, M.B.E., V.R.D., Kt. O.N., F.R.Hist.S.Q.] (Read at the Society's meeting on 24 June 1965.) INTRODUCTION [This paper, entitied the "Gardens Reach of the Brisbane River," describes the growth of shipping from the inception of Brisbane's first port terminal at South Brisbane, which spread and developed in the Gardens Reach. In dealing briefly wkh a period from 1842 to 1927, it men­ tions some of the vessels which came here and a number of people who travelled in them. In this year of 1965, we take for granted communications in terms of the Telestar which televises in London an inter­ view as it takes place in New York. News from the world comes to us several times a day from newspapers, television and radio. A letter posted to London brings a reply in less than a week: we can cable or telephone to London or New York. Now let us return to the many years from 1842 onward before the days of the submarine cable and subsequent inven­ tion of wireless telegraphy by Signor Marconi, when Bris­ bane's sole means of communication with the outside world was by way of the sea. Ships under sail carried the mails on the long journeys, often prolonged by bad weather; at best, it was many months before replies to letters or despatches could be expected, or news of the safe arrival of travellers receivd. Ships vanished without trace; news of others which were lost came from survivors.

  • 4 / 19 Lucinda Street Taringa Qld 4068 9 March 2006 Heritage
    4 / 19 Lucinda Street Taringa Qld 4068 9 March 2006 Heritage Inquiry Productivity Commission PO Box 80 Belconnen ACT 2616 Dear Sir or Madam CONSERVATION OF AUSTRALIA’S HISTORIC HERITAGE PLACES COMMENT ON DRAFT REPORT I accept your invitation to provide my 16 February submission in an alternative form. Market Failure Outcomes in heritage conservation are measured over decades or centuries. This cannot be accommodated by the short-term commercial imperative of quarterly accounts. Protecting places valued by the community is a common good. I don’t know of any business model which is underpinned by the common good rather than private profits. There are just over 380,000 rateable properties in the City of Brisbane. There are around 2500 individual heritage places, for listing at local and state levels, in the city. If the economy can’t operate with this tiny fraction of places unavailable for demolition, then the market system is definitely a failure. Substitution It was suggested that if a voluntary conservation agreement cannot be negotiated for one place, you simply look around for another one with the same values (pxxxiii). This economic concept of “substitution” is not applicable here. Historic heritage places are unique in space and time. They are not a renewable resource and cannot be simply manufactured again on order. Eventually, you can run out of heritage places and the cupboard is bare. For instance, in Queensland we have two sites where Captain Cook landed. The landing site at Agnes Waters / Town of 1770 is now covered by a car park ramp. If no-one wants to enter into a conservation agreement for the Endeavour River site, what is the point of putting out a tender? There is nothing to be had.

    Conservation Comments - PDS To: Lara Huckstepp From: Lucinda Varley Date: 10 September 2020 Re: DA 147/20 -105- 153 Miller Street, North Sydney MLC Building 1. CURRENT HERITAGE STATUS The subject site is currently listed as a heritage item of local significance (No. 10893) in Schedule 5 of the North Sydney Local Environmental Plan (LEP) 2013. The Statement of Significance states: The first high rise office block in North Sydney and the largest for a number of years after its construction, the MLC Building in North Sydney is a seminal building on subsequent high-rise design in Sydney and utilised construction and structural techniques not previously used in Australia. With the first use of a curtain wall design and the first use of modular units in Australia, its use of exceptional modernist building materials in the curtain wall facade and terracotta glazed bricks are representative of the Post-War International style of architecture that predominated in these early commercial high-rise buildings. The architect, Walter Osborn McCutcheon's desire for his buildings to integrate modern art within the fabric of the design is demonstrated by the inclusion of significant artists such as Andor Mészáros and Gerald Lewers. As a result, and despite subsequent modifications, the interior, exterior and landscape setting are of high aesthetic, technical and representative significance. The building is also of historical, associative and aesthetic significance as an important work by a significant firm of architects Bates Smart and McCutcheon, and master builders Concrete Constructions, and as a landmark site at North Sydney which signified the transformation of the centre of North Sydney from Nineteenth Century town to the second commercial hub of metropolitan Sydney from the late 1950s.

  • Species Introductions and Potential for Marine Pest Invasions Into Tropical Marine Communities, with Special Reference to the Indo-Pacific1
    Species Introductions and Potential for Marine Pest Invasions into Tropical Marine Communities, with Special Reference to the Indo-Pacific1 P. A. Hutchings,2 R. W. Hilliard,3 and S. L. Coles4 Abstract: Introductions of marine species by hull fouling or ballast water have occurred extensively in temperate areas, often with substantial deleterious im- pacts. However, current information suggests that marine introductions poten- tially able to achieve pest species status have been fewer in tropical regions. A 1997 risk assessment examining introductions to 12 tropical ports in Queensland (Australia) concluded that far fewer marine species appeared to have been in- troduced, even at major bulk export ports where the number of ship visits and volume of discharged ballast water are more than at most of Australia’s cooler water ports. Results from recent surveys looking for introduced species in trop- ical ports across northern Australia are beginning to support this conclusion, although the lack of historic baseline surveys and the poor taxonomic status of many tropical groups are preventing a precise picture. The 1997 report also concluded that, apart from pathogens and parasites of warm-water species, the potential for marine pest invasions in Queensland tropical ports appeared to be low, and not only because much of the discharged ballast water originates from temperate ports in North Asia. In contrast, recent surveys of harbors in Hawai‘i have found over 110 introduced species (including 23 cryptogenic species), the majority in the estuarine embayments of Pearl Harbor and O‘ahu’s commercial harbors. We suggest that the biogeographically isolated and less diverse marine communities of Hawaiian ports have been more susceptible to introductions than those of tropical Australia for several reasons, including the closeness of Australia to the central Indo-Pacific ‘‘triangle’’ of megadiversity (Indonesia- Philippines-Papua New Guinea) and consequent high biodiversity and low endemicity, hence offering fewer niches for nonindigenous species to become established.

  • Standard Tourism and Vessel Charter Permit QPW/2019/4846
    Information sheet Marine Management Information for applicants - standard tourism and vessel charter permit This information sheet is relevant to persons proposing to apply for a standard tourism and vessel charter permit for the Great Sandy or Moreton Bay marine parks. Overview The Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service and Partnerships have introduced the new standard tourism and vessel charter permit (STVC) for access to the Moreton Bay or Great Sandy marine parks (the Marine Parks), which includes the following permissions subject to certain conditions: • conducting a tourism program; and • conducting a vessel charter operation. The STVC is a fully standardised permit, meaning a risk assessment has been conducted for all of the permitted activities that have been determined as low risk. In addition, standard conditions have been developed to protect the marine parks from potential impacts. This streamlines the application process for new operators and operators conducting low risk activities in the marine parks. Applicants should carefully read the example standard tourism and vessel charter permit (which can be downloaded at www.qld.gov.au) to understand the conditions and check that all planned activities are allowed. In addition, applicants must meet certain requirements as detailed in the Eligibility and Applicant Suitability sections of this information sheet. Key features of this permit Some of the key features of the STVC include reduced application processing timeframes, a longer permit term, a wide range of access to most areas of the marine parks, a broad range of activities and no restriction on the number of vessels that may be used. Permit terms The standard tourism and vessel charter permit is offered for a term of six years.
