Save our water, soil and air from invasive mining & industrial gasfields www.protectlimestonecoast.org.au Email: [email protected] Prime Agricultural land covers only 4% of Australia's land area and is essential to our long term survival. We believe that this Bill, which proposes to make gas or coal mining activities undertaken without prior written authorisation from landholders unlawful, will ensure that prime agricultural land is protected for food production. Furthermore, this Bill which places a ban on constitutional corporations from engaging in hydraulic fracturing operations (fracking) for coal seam gas, shale gas and tight gas, will ensure that our landscapes, water, soil, air quality and the health of people and animals is protected. Hydraulic fracturing and coal mining are industrial processes with a massive environmental footprint and significant potential to contaminate our air, soil and water and have an impact on our landscape. In view of the potential, long term and serious risks of hydraulic fracturing we support this Bill. Page 3 of 299 Limestone Coast Protection Alliance Inc. Save our water, soil and air from invasive mining & industrial gasfields www.protectlimestonecoast.org.au Email: [email protected] About us: In 2013, a group of Kingston & Robe residents & ratepayers’ re-formed Limestone Coast Strike Out Alliance Incorporated (LCSOA). The primary objective of the group was to raise awareness amongst the local community of the potential risks that Strike Energy mining activities may pose to the Limestone Coast region. Strike Energy at that time had a licence over the lignite coal deposit north of Kingston, and if this mine went ahead it could have put Kingston’s water supply at risk, potentially drying up bores of surrounding farms and houses, leading to salt water intrusion and contamination of groundwater. In 2014, the LCSOA recognised that the whole of the Limestone Coast is covered by Petroleum Exploration Licenses (PEL) and we changed the name to Limestone Coast Protection Alliance Inc (LCPA) although the goal continues to be to raise awareness of the potential risk gasfields and invasive mining projects have for the region which is only 2.2% of the State's land area, but contains over 40% of the state’s prime agricultural land. In 12 months, LCPA has built up a solid reputation and membership has risen from 11 to over 400. We have worked with our seven local councils, as well as the South East Local Government Association (SELGA) to raise awareness of the potential losses gas mining projects would pose for our groundwater, land, air quality and health. In June 2014, SELGA formally passed a motion asking for a moratorium on unconventional gas and fracking in the Limestone Coast and each individual council has passed similar motions either asking the State government for a moratorium or an Inquiry for further information. In September, LCPA presented a petition to the Legislative Council containing 2795 signatures asking for 'landholders to have the rights to say no to gas and mining projects on their land'. This has seen overwhelming majority support from the community, both rural and city. In October 2014, the District Council of Robe was the first SA council to be presented with Gasfield Free community declarations. On Australia day, 2015, the LCPA was awarded the Mayoral community event of the year – for this declaration day ceremony – by the District Council of Robe. In May 2015, the Limestone Coast has 25 communities self-declared Gasfield Free. Over all, in these local communities 96% of people are opposing gas fields and mining projects. LCPA statement “Our concern is Australia has very little prime agricultural land to grow clean and green food. If these coal and gas projects went ahead potentially it will have detrimental effects on our ground water, land, businesses, tourism & health (people, livestock, pets, wildlife).” Page 4 of 299 Limestone Coast Protection Alliance Inc.

  • Out Where the Big Wheat Grows
    l &- ...... BREEZE]•....--- VOLUME 64 JUNE 26, 1926 NUMBER 26 / Out Where " the Big Wheat Grows \ l HE hum of the combines and the chug of tractors make a duet of up real joy and prosperity these days in Southwestern Kansas. This' is in the land of the big where wheat, good farming and a reasonable measure of luck with the weather have placed that section on the highest level of prosperity since wartimes. This huge crop goes well over the borders of the state, into Oklahoma and Colorado-the folks who are working on the extension of the Manter branch of the Santa Fe to Joycoy, Colo., are seeing some real grain these days. A great development has taken place in this part of Kansas in the last -10 or 12 years=-slnce the Elkhart branch of the Santa Fe was built. There has been a change-from the big cattle ranches to the fields of open wheat, raised by the use of big and a machinery, system of wholesale production which has been mighty from the helpful standpoint of profits. But even more credit is due to the faith and pep of the people there, who believe in Southwestern and in ' Kansas, its ultimate destiny as a dominant unit in agricultural Kansas. In this section one can see "big farming" at its best-and a maximum use of In power. many communities 75 per cent of the wheat will be cut this year with combines, pulled by tractors, and the wheat will be hauled to the elevators in trucks, over roads which are smooth, and quite generally free from the hills and ravines so common farther east.

Par définition un cenote contient de l'eau car il donne regard sur la nappe aquifère régionale. À la différence des gouffres et autres dolines d'effondrement, les cenotes ne donnent pas passage à des conduits vadoses. Cependant il peut arriver qu'en fonction des fluctuations du toit de la nappe, ils soient momentanément asséchés. 2 Ce terme est plus précis que le vague "sinkhole" de la littérature anglo-saxonne, aussi a-t-il été utilisé relativement tôt dans la littérature et dans toutes les parties du monde : Floride (Thornbury, 1954 ; Stringfield et Le Grand, 1966) ; Bohême (Pohl, 1955) ; Nouveau Mexique (Sweeting, 1972 ) ; Canada (Brook et Ford, 1974) ; Sud-Ouest africain, Rhodésie, Transvaal (Marker, 1976) ; Madagascar (Battistini, 1964 ; Salomon, 1986), Nouvelle-Calédonie (Thomas, 1987) ; Australie (Sexton, 1965 ; Fairbridge, 1968) ; les îles Trobriand, de Nouvelle-Guinée (Ollier, 1975), etc.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] KATHRYN BOWD: How different is different ... How Different Is ‘Different’? Australian Country Newspapers And Development Journalism Australian country newspapers demonstrate a focus on their local community or communities which appears to be much stronger than that of their metropolitan counterparts. This focus is generally reflected in an emphasis on local news and the promotion of local concerns, individuals and achievements. The limited literature on country newspapers suggests this emphasis has contributed to country print journalism developing in directions significantly removed from those of contemporary urban journalism. This paper argues that while country newspaper journalism incorporates elements of conventional journalism, it has also evolved in ways which appear to have more in common with non-Western forms of journalism than with the journalism practised in major Australian cities. Kathryn Bowd University of South Australia ountry newspaper journalism has been described as the C“forgotten sector” of journalism in Australia (Woolford 1980: 17). It is an area frequently ignored – or, at best, mentioned in passing – in the literature.

  • 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.
