  • Final Milestone Report on the Gulf Reconnaissance Component
    Report to Land & Water Australia Ecosystem processes in tropical rivers: conceptual models and future research. Final milestone report on the gulf reconnaissance component August 2005 Prepared by: DR ANDREW BROOKS Centre for Riverine Landscapes, Griffith University Email: [email protected] Project Reference: GRU34 ABSTRACT As part of the developmental phase of the Tropical Rivers and Coastal Knowledge (TRaCK) Program this project was instigated to undertake a reconnaissance of all rivers draining into the Gulf of Carpentaria, as well as collecting baseline data and undertaking regional stakeholder consultation. The primary field component of this project was undertaken during September and October 2004, during which time an aerial reconnaissance was completed along the trunk streams of all major rivers draining into the Gulf of Carpentaria. Global Positioning System (GPS) located videography was successfully trialled in this reconnaissance using a non gyro-stabilised mounting from a twin engine, fixed wing platform. Using this approach, high-resolution imagery (1 – 2m) of the channel and riparian zone was collected along 13500km of river channel over 43 hours of flying time. The imagery collected equates to around 52% of the channel network defined by the 1:5M topographic network, which is the network being used to define the streams being classified in an affiliated project. At around $5.50 per river kilometre, this approach has proved to be an efficient and cost effective method of undertaking reconnaissance of large remote area river systems, which at the same time provides a high quality permanent record of the river channel that can effectively form the baseline inventory for subsequent research.

  • Allan Rintoul
    Productivity Commission Submission - Remote Area Tax Concessions and Payments Submission to: Remote Area Tax Concessions and Payments Review 29 April 2019 Author: Allan Geoffrey Rintoul For over seven years now I have been living in the more remote areas of northern and north western Queensland. These areas include Bamaga, Julia Creek, Aramac, Longreach and now Burketown. Whilst living in these areas can be considered as a “choice”, it has been for work and to assist in still maintaining a family, mortgage and all those other necessities of life. I do believe there needs to be a realistic recognition that living in the more remote areas of the country does require a serious review of its cost not only for those of us presently living in the areas, but to also promote others to move and live in the regions. Assistance with either in the up front costs impacts or as this study drives - at the end or the tax year, will be most beneficial in assisting remote communities, families and workers. In making a submission to the Remote Area Tax Concessions and Payments, I offer the following details regarding the issues associated with the cost of living and living in general in these communities. 1. Distance to major centres – the travel distance to major centres (Cloncurry and Mount Isa) from Burketown is 4.5-6.5 hours dependant of the desire to travel of at best very rough gravel road. Many of which are unfenced and subject to wildlife and live stock as an ongoing hazard. The key issue of these communities is the isolation in the wet season where one can be cut off by road for extended periods.
