    THE COST OF CRASHES An analysis of lives lost and injuries on NSW roads May 2017 About the NRMA Better road and transport infrastructure has been a core focus of the NRMA since 1920 when our founders lobbied for improvements to the condition of Parramatta Road in Sydney. Independent advocacy was the foundation activity of the organisation and remains critical to who we are as we approach our first centenary. From humble beginnings, the NRMA has grown to represent over 2.4 million Australians principally from NSW and the ACT. The NRMA also provides motoring, mobility and tourism services to our Members and the community. Today, the NRMA works with policy makers and industry leaders to advocate for increased investment in road infrastructure and transport solutions to make mobility safer, provide access for all and to deliver sustainable communities. By working together with all levels of government to deliver integrated transport options we can give motorists a real choice about how they get around. The NRMA believes that integrated transport networks, including efficient roads, high-quality public transport and improved facilities for cyclists and pedestrians, are essential to solve the challenge of growing congestion and provide for the future growth of our communities.

David concluded the word was of Aboriginal origin (from the Wiradjuri language); however, he also explored the notion that it was derived from Scottish kyle ‘narrow strait, sound channel between two islands or an island and the mainland’ (Gaelic caol). This view has had some currency: the Queensland Department of Environment and Resource Management notes on its placename website that Cowal Creek Caption in Cape York is named after Cowal Creek in NSW and that cowal ‘is of Scottish origin and is not Aboriginal’. 1 Figure 1: Dead Dog Cogie in flood, 2007 (photo: Jan Johnson) I recently stumbled upon a similar conundrum when I started some research on the There are several indigenous terms used as generics in syntax of Australian toponyms.

  • Local Plumbing Regulators in NSW On-Site Plumbing and Drainage Compliance and Inspections
    Local plumbing regulators in NSW On-site plumbing and drainage compliance and inspections This document outlines who performs the functions of the plumbing regulator in NSW. Under the Plumbing and Drainage Act 2011 NSW Fair Trading is the plumbing regulator in New South Wales. The Plumbing Code of Australia is the technical standard for compliance throughout NSW. It is the responsibility of the plumbing regulator in each area to set requirements for inspections of on-site plumbing and drainage. Fair Trading’s area of operation includes all areas in which properties are provided with services (either drinking water, recycled water or a sewerage service) by Sydney Water Corporation or Hunter Water Corporation. This area of operation stretches from Gerringong in the south (the Illawarra), to Newcastle, Port Stephens and Dungog in the north (the Hunter), and west to Mount Victoria (Blue Mountains). The function of the plumbing regulator has been delegated by Fair Trading to local councils, county councils, or other qualified bodies. The delegation of the function has been accepted by local and county councils across NSW, with a small number of exceptions where the council declined the delegation. Below are two tables identifying the local authority for plumbing regulator functions, including conducting inspections, throughout NSW by local government area. Please Note: Onsite plumbing and drainage work does not include stormwater, fire suppression; work on network utility assets or roof plumbing. If you are a plumber or drainer in regional
