  • The Beeliar Group Speaks Outa
    Beeliar Group Statement 1, Revision 1 Urgent need for action: the Beeliar Group speaks outa The Beeliar Group takes a strong stand against the destruction of precious West Australian wetlands and woodlands (the Beeliar Regional Park), and calls for an immediate halt to work on Roe 8, a major highway development that will traverse them. In so doing, we propose an alternative long-term agenda. Our rationale is set out below. 1. Valuable ecological communities, fauna and flora are subordinated to short-term political gain and vested interests. Roe 8 fragments one of the best remaining patches of Banksia woodland left in the Swan coastal region, which is part of an internationally recognised biodiversity hotspot. In September 2016, the Banksia Woodlands of the Swan Coastal Plain was listed as an endangered ecological community in accordance with the Commonwealth’s Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act (1999). The Commonwealth document, Banksia Woodlands of the Swan Coastal Plain: a nationally protected ecological community, drew attention to the importance of the area and the dangers of fragmentation: “[Banksia woodland] was once common and formed an almost continuous band of large bushland patches around Perth and other near coastal areas, but has been lost by almost 60% overall, with most remaining patches small in size. This fragmentation is leading to the decline of many plants, animals and ecosystem functions. Therefore, it is very important to protect, manage and restore the best surviving remnants for future generations.1

    PARLIAMENT OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA INAUGURAL SPEECH Hon Daniel James Caddy, MLC (Member for North Metropolitan) Legislative Council Address-in-Reply Tuesday, 25 May 2021 Reprinted from Hansard Legislative Council Tuesday, 25 May 2021 ____________ ADDRESS-IN-REPLY Motion Resumed from 13 May on the following motion moved by Hon Pierre Yang — That the following address be presented to His Excellency the Honourable Kim Beazley, Companion of the Order of Australia, Governor in and over the state of Western Australia and its dependencies in the Commonwealth of Australia — May it please Your Excellency: We, the members of the Legislative Council of the Parliament of Western Australia in Parliament assembled, beg to express our loyalty to our most gracious sovereign and thank Your Excellency for the speech you have been pleased to deliver to Parliament. HON DAN CADDY (North Metropolitan) [5.03 pm]: It is important to me that the first words I utter in this place are to acknowledge the traditional owners of the land on which this place stands, the Whadjuk people of the proud Noongar nation. I pay my respects to their elders past, present and emerging. This land is Whadjuk boodja—always was and always will be. I shared a flight to Canberra with the Governor nearly 15 years ago. We sat, just the two of us, at a table on the government jet. It was an incredible conversation. Then later that year, I was dropping something off at his office at Parliament House in Canberra and I asked him a simple question about his time in politics.

The Water Corporation proposes to expand its sewage pumping capacity at Munster by constructing another pump station (No.3) and the extension of the Bibra Lake main sewer. In accordance with the Environmental Protection Act, a PER has been prepared which describes this proposal and its likely effects on the environment. The PER is available for a public review period of 8 weeks from 4th January 1999 closing on 1st March 1999. Comments from government agencies and from the public will help the EPA to prepare an assessment report in which it will make recommendations to government. Why write a submission? A submission is a way to provide information, express your opinion and put forward your suggested course of action - including any alternative approach. It is useful if you indicate any suggestions you have to improve the proposal. All submissions received by the EPA will be acknowledged. Submissions will be treated as public documents unless provided and received in confidence subject to the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act, and may be quoted in full or in part in the EPA's report. Why not join a group? If you prefer not to write your own comments, it may be worthwhile joining with a group interested in making a submission on similar issues.

  • From Perth's Lost Swamps to the Beeliar Wetlands
    Coolabah, No. 24&25, 2018, ISSN 1988-5946, Observatori: Centre d’Estudis Australians i Transnacionals / Observatory: Australian and Transnational Studies Centre, Universitat de Barcelona Reimagining the cultural significance of wetlands: From Perth’s lost swamps to the Beeliar Wetlands. Danielle Brady Edith Cowan University [email protected] Jeffrey Murray Australian Army Copyright©2018 Danielle Brady & Jeffrey Murray. This text may be archived and redistributed both in electronic form and in hard copy, provided that the author and journal are properly cited and no fee is charged, in accordance with our Creative Commons Licence. Abstract: The history of Perth, Western Australia, has been characterised by the incremental loss of its wetlands. While disputes about wetlands are often framed solely in terms of the environment, they are places of cultural significance too. The extensive wetlands of central Perth, food gathering and meeting places for Noongar people are now expunged from the landscape. Urban dwellers of Perth are largely unaware that the seasonal lakes and wetlands of the centre of the city were the larders, gardens, hideouts, dumps and playgrounds of previous generations; both Noongar and Settler. The loss of social memory of these lost cultural/natural places entails the framing of wetlands as aberrant and continues to influence Perth’s development and the sense of place of its inhabitants. Reimagining Perth’s Lost Wetlands was a project which attempted to reimagine the pre-colonial landscape using archival material. Reimagining the past allows connections to be made to the last remaining wetlands in the wider metropolitan area. The fight to save the Beeliar Wetlands in southern suburban Perth as a cultural/natural place illustrates the changing value of wetlands and the laying down of social memories of place.
