The Environmental, Social and Human Health Importance of the Aquifers and Wetlands of the Lower South East of South Australia An
The environmental, social and human health importance of the aquifers and wetlands of the Lower South East of South Australia and SW Victoria and the increasing threats to their existence. My submission to the Senate Select Committee on Unconventional Gas Mining March 2016 I am Marcia Lorenz B.A. Grad. Dip. Ed. Admin., a retired school teacher. I only discovered the attractions of the South East when I came to Beachport 12 years ago. I am a volunteer at the Millicent High School where I support the Aboriginal children in their work with their culture and the environment. I am also a volunteer with other environmental groups in the region. My submission concerns the likely detrimental effect of unconventional gas extraction (“fracking”) on the aquifers and wetlands of the South East of South Australia and therefore on the myriad of species, both flora and fauna that constitute wetland habitats. 1 HISTORY Historically, post white settlement, wetlands were viewed as wastelands with no thought being given to the natural environment and the diversity of species they contained. Economics was the driving force. It would be wonderful if we could say that times have changed and politically there is the realisation that in order for humans to exist, the natural environment must be taken into consideration. After all we now have knowledge that wasn’t available to the ordinary person in the early days of settlement. Post European settlement change in land use has significantly altered the landscape of the South East resulting in the loss of many areas of wetland habitat with <6% of the original wetland extent now remaining.1 An estimated 2,515 km. -
SBAS BA Appointment
NEW BUSINESS ADVISOR FOR THE MID TO UPPER LIMESTONE COAST REGION APPOINTED Regional Development Australia Limestone Coast Inc is pleased to welcome Mr Steve Chapple to the newly created role of Business Advisor to service the Mid to Upper Limestone Coast region. Steve is well known to many business, industry, government and community stakeholders across the region through his role as Regional Manager Southern South Australia with AusIndustry for the past 11 years. Steve’s background also includes 25 years of service to the South Australian Police Department and three years as Economic Development Manager with the Wattle Range Council. “Steve brings a wealth of regional knowledge to the Board and his vast experience in dealing with local businesses, community groups and Government Departments will be in-valuable in kick-starting this new initiative across the Mid to Upper Limestone Coast Region”, said RDALC Chief Executive Officer, Mr Mike Ryan. The Mid to Upper Limestone Coast Business Advisor Service is being funded under the Commonwealth Government’ Small Business Advisory Service (SBAS) program, which aims to maximise the growth potential, prosperity and sustainability of small businesses through enhanced access to information and advice on issues important to establishing, sustaining and/or growing a small business.

Written Submission in Response to the Regional Development Strategy Discussion Paper
25 July 2019 Regions SA Re: Regional Development Strategy Discussion Paper Primary Industries and Regions SA GPO Box 1671 Adelaide, SA 5001 Dear Sir/Madam, Re: Regional Development Strategy consultation On behalf of Tatiara District Council, I am pleased to make a written submission in response to the Regional Development Strategy discussion paper. Diverse regions The Tatiara is a prosperous and innovative district, boasting a diverse agricultural base, including grains and stock, vineyards, small seeds, flowers, vegetables and olives, and strong businesses like Bordertown’s JBS Australia or Keith’s Master Butchers Co-operative Ltd (MBL). Our district has proven fertile ground for entrepreneurs like Tatiara Truck & Trailers, the second largest truck repair and maintenance business in South Australia, or Keith Timber Group, a dominant player in the South Australian frame and truss, timber and hardware markets, with sites located in Adelaide, Keith, Murray Bridge and Naracoorte. Other exciting ventures are just emerging, like Good Country Hemp’s hemp processing plant, or Blue Lake Milling’s anaerobic digester converting oat husks into electricity. We are in the enviable position of having run out of space at our industrial estates in Bordertown and Keith, and are in the process of opening stage 3 of the Bordertown Industrial Estate. Stage 2 of the Keith Industrial Estate will follow this year. At a time that Australia welcomes an unemployment rate of 5.1% we have an unemployment rate of 1.7%, meaning that our businesses have to bring in significant labour from outside the region to fill vacancies. However, if there is one thing that we, like many other regions, are failing to do, it is to promote this diversity and the exciting story of our entrepreneurs and opportunities. -

Historic Earthquake Studies-Safinal
Historical earthquakes in South Australia Kevin McCue CQU Rockhampton, Queensland Abstract Three earthquakes have etched themselves into the collective memories of South Australians, the damaging 1897 Kingston-Beachport, 1902 (so-called) Warooka and 1954 Adelaide earthquakes but thousands more earthquakes in SA have been recorded since 1954, or were reported before the first seismograph was installed in Adelaide on 26 June 1909. The 1902 and 1954 earthquakes damaged buildings in Adelaide as did an earthquake in 1840 just after the city was born. Chimneys in Burra were knocked down in an earthquake in 1896. On average, between one and two earthquakes per month are reported felt in South Australia today (Alison Wallace – pers. comm.), but only half of these would be reported by the media which is a useful yardstick for historical studies such as this report. Several hundred earthquakes felt in Australia have been documented in three volumes of the Isoseismal Atlas of Australia and by Malpas (1993) and others but sources have not yet been exhausted as is demonstrated with new information on 51 felt earthquakes, many of which have not had a magnitude and location tabulated before. An earthquake in 1911 previously assigned to the Eyre Peninsula has been relocated to Gulf St Vincent, an example of an interesting feature of SA seismicity; the occasional almost simultaneous occurrence of earthquakes in different parts of the state. The combined Modified Mercalli intensity dataset has been used to make an earthquake hazard assessment for Adelaide, the result is in the same ballpark as that of Christchurch New Zealand, of the order of a thousand years return period for a destructive earthquake. -
