There are four major elements of the project: a) Collection and transfer of NRE and other authorities flood information - a data review and management process. b) Recording and analysing the flood information in a Geographical Information System (GIS). c) Reorganisation of the source flood data under a new cataloguing system for re- storing at NRE. d) Preparation of reports and mapping to record a), b) and c) A key output of the flood data transfer project is the formulation of Flood Data Maps which detail all captured data and Flood Planning Maps which provide 1% AEP1 Flood Extent and Floodway delineation. Both the 1% AEP Flood Extent and Floodway mapping are critical input to the flood management and land use control processes being developed by the CMA's and Local Government. Dialogue with municipalities was a key element of the project. This included soliciting information from them and seeking advice regarding towns to be mapped in detail and the accuracy and presentation of reports and mapping. The Floodway and 1% AEP Flood Extent mapping has only been carried out for locations where information was available and of sufficient quality to justify delineation. Hence, the extent of Floodway and 1% AEP Flood Extent mapping is not a comprehensive coverage of all flood plains or all flooding problem areas. The Flood Data maps provide a record of available past mapping and as such known problem areas. Ã$QQXDOÃ([FHHGDQFHÃ3UREDELOLW\ VV8159.093.2 VV8159.093.Rev2 1 DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND ENVIRONMENT River Basin Report - Hopkins Basin (Second Edition) The project requires delivery of three levels of reporting, namely: • Flood Mapping Reports - are, as stated in the Brief, to provide an easy to use reference source for flood information at the municipal scale in support of planning and other related activities; • River Basin Reports - are, as stated in the Brief, to provide an easy to use reference source for flood information at the river basin scale. The river basin reports will be a major source document on flooding for CMA's in the delivery of floodplain management services. • A Glenelg-Hopkins Catchment Management Report - an aggregate report covering those parts of the three river basin reports within the Glenelg-Hopkins CMA operating area. Digital maps in GIS format facilitate access to flood information that can be readily, reviewed, analysed and amended. This River Basin Report is for the entire Hopkins Basin. It consists of extracts from detailed sections of the previous report prepared by Egis (River Basin Report – Hopkins River Basin, 1 May 2000) for mapping in the municipalities of Ballarat and Pyrenees, as well as descriptions of new mapping in the municipalities of Ararat, Corangamite, Moyne, Southern Grampians and Warrnambool. 1.2 Areas of Responsibility The area covered by the Hopkins Basin are shown in Figure 1.1, Locality Plan. Figure 1.1 highlights the following: • Glenelg Hopkins Catchment Management Authority has jurisdiction over the entire Hopkins Basin. • Parts of the Shire of Pyrenees and City of Ballarat are within the Hopkins Basin. These municipalities were mapped by Egis as part of a previous project. • Parts of the Shire of Moyne, Rural City of Ararat, Shire of Southern Grampians and all of the City of Warrnambool (all within the project area), and part of the Shire of Corangamite (outside the project area) are within the Hopkins Basin. These municipalities contain new mapping. The particular areas of responsibility for each municipality are summarised in Table 1.1. The river systems covered are the Hopkins and Merri Rivers.

    MUNICIPAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN Document No: SP006 - 2017 Review Date: June 2017 Municipal Emergency Last Reviewed: February 2016 Management Plan Next Audit Due: July 2020 Revision No: 1.1 Responsible Officer: Risk, Emergency Management and Local Laws Coordinator th Approved By: Council (27 June 2017) Related Documents: FOREWORD Emergencies are unpredictable in terms of their occurrence and effects, and can require a response for which normal local resources may be inadequate. They can have a wide range of effects and impacts on the human and physical environment, and can generate complex needs in dealing with them. The term “Emergency” has been defined in the Emergency Management Act 2013 (S.3) means an emergency due to the actual or imminent occurrence of an event which in any way endangers or threatens to endanger the safety or health of any person in Victoria or which destroys or damages, or threatens to destroy or damage, any property in Victoria or endangers or threatens to endanger the environment or an element of the environment in Victoria, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing- • An earthquake, flood, windstorm or other natural event; and • A fire; and • An explosion; and • A road accident or any other accident; and • A plague or an epidemic or contamination; and • A warlike act or act of terrorism, whether directed at Victoria or a part of Victoria or at any other State or Territory of the Commonwealth; and • A hijack, siege or riot; and • A disruption to an essential service." The economic and social effects of emergencies including loss of life, destruction of property, and dislocation of communities, are inevitable.

  • Annual Water Outlook 2019-2020
    Annual Water Outlook 2019-2020 30 November 2019 December 2019 marks 100 years since work to build Lake Glenmaggie commenced in 1919. Glenmaggie Weir has brought many benefits to the local district. Its primary purpose is to supply irrigation to the Macalister Irrigation District, but the Lake is also an iconic holiday destination and recreation facility. Introduction The Minister for Water has delegated Southern Rural Water (SRW) with the responsibility for managing surface water licensing, groundwater extraction, storage dams and irrigation districts across the southern third of Victoria. Within this wide geographic area, SRW manages take and use licenses from waterways, farm dam registrations, licences relating to catchment dams and seven major dams, and operates irrigation districts. Water use is primarily for agricultural, urban and industrial purposes. SRW manages the Macalister Irrigation District (MID) in central Gippsland and the Werribee (WID) and Bacchus Marsh (BMID) irrigation districts west of Melbourne. The majority of the water used in the irrigation districts is for primary agricultural production, along with stock and domestic and minor industrial use. Water shares are held by individual customers within the districts and transactions are recorded in the Victorian Water Register. Blue Rock Lake (part of the Latrobe River system) plays a major role in providing cooling water for Victoria’s brown coal power generation. These are bulk entitlements held by the various companies which own and run the power stations. Blue Rock Lake and Lake Glenmaggie have environmental water entitlements (bulk entitlements and water shares respectively) that are managed by the West Gippsland Catchment Management Authority on behalf of the Victorian Environmental Water Holder.

The purpose of the Study is to complete the identification, assessment and documentation of places of post-contact cultural significance within Corangamite Shire, excluding the town of Camperdown (the study area) and to make recommendations for their future conservation. This volume contains the Reviewed and Revised Thematic Environmental History. It should be read in conjunction with Volumes 1 & 2 of the Study, which contain the following: • Volume 1. Overview, Methodology & Recommendations • Volume 2. Citations for Precincts, Individual Places and Cultural Landscapes This document was reviewed and revised by Ray Tonkin and Samantha Westbrooke in July 2013 as part of the completion of the Corangamite Heritage Study, Stage 2. This was a task required by the brief for the Stage 2 study and was designed to ensure that the findings of the Stage 2 study were incorporated into the final version of the Thematic Environmental History. The revision largely amounts to the addition of material to supplement certain themes and the addition of further examples of places that illustrate those themes. There has also been a significant re-formatting of the document. Most of the original version was presented in a landscape format.
