Introduction 1.1 Purpose The Emergency Management Act 2013 (EM Act 2013) requires each Regional Emergency Management Planning Committee (REMPC) to develop and maintain a comprehensive emergency management plan for the region that seeks to reduce: • the likelihood of emergencies; • the effect of emergencies on communities; and • the consequences of emergencies for communities. 1.2 Objective This Regional Emergency Management Plan (Plan) documents the agreed emergency management arrangements for mitigation, response and recovery; and defines the roles and responsibilities of stakeholders at the regional level. It supports efficiency and effectiveness on a platform of shared responsibility and interoperability to deliver community centred outcomes. The Plan seeks to build safer and more resilient communities through dynamic engagement and connectedness with the individuals, groups and broader society that makes up the Grampians region. It ensures a coordinated and integrated approach with a focus on community involvement in planning in line with the ‘all communities – all emergencies’ approach to emergency management. 1.3 Scope 1.3.1 Context This plan supports holistic and coordinated emergency management arrangements within the region. It is consistent with and contextualises the State Emergency Management Plan (SEMP). This Plan is a subordinate plan to the SEMP. In addition to the SEMP, this Plan considers the municipal emergency management plans (MEMPs) within the region and region-specific issues and opportunities (including cross- border emergencies and consequences) that exist. This Plan is not an aggregation of MEMPs within the region but instead addresses and capitalises on opportunities that exist to enhance emergency management planning outcomes and sustain or improve capability and capacity within the region. To the extent possible, this Plan does not conflict with or duplicate other in-force emergency management plans that exist. Figure 1 outlines this Plan’s hierarchy. This Plan should be read in conjunction with the SEMP and any other identified plans listed in Attachment A.

Each REMPC is a multi-agency collaboration group whose members bring organisation, industry or personal expertise to the task of emergency management planning for the region. Grampians is declared as a region by the Governor in Council for the purposes of emergency management planning, pursuant to section 77A of the EM Act 2013 (see Attachment B for more detail). The plan complies with the requirements of the EM Act 2013 including having regard to any relevant guidelines issued under section 77.

  • Climate Adaptation Strategy 2021–2025 DRAFT for PUBLIC COMMENT Who Is This Document For?
    DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy 2021–2025 DRAFT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Who is this document for? Victoria’s Climate Change Act requires the Government to ‘take strong action to build resilience to, and reduce the risks posed by, climate change and protect those most vulnerable.’11 Development of this community-led Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy and coordination of its implementation has been funded by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP). The Strategy was written collaboratively by members of Regional Climate Adaptation Groups (RCAG) representing state government, agencies, local government, universities, farmers, business and community in close consultation with key stakeholders throughout the Grampians Region. It is intended that everyone involved can see their own climate adaptation aspirations reflected. Efforts across the Region can be better coordinated, leading to improved outcomes for communities and the environment. Community groups, local governments, agencies and organisations can use this document to: • Align their own climate adaptation planning and projects to regional goals and outcomes, providing opportunities for partnerships and collaboration to maximise collective impact. • Apply for grants funded by DELWP. • Support funding applications for other government, corporate and philanthropic grants. Activities aligned with these goals and outcomes will be able to demonstrate a high level of strategic thinking at a regional level, stakeholder engagement

  • A Grampians Massacre? an Analysis of the Participant’S Account of an Early Whyte Brothers Massacre in the Portland District
    A Grampians Massacre? An analysis of the Participant’s account of an early Whyte Brothers massacre in the Portland district by PD Gardner (written with assistance from the Search Foundation.This is an unpublished essay completed about 2010) The account of this massacre - which I consider a primary source and not as well known as it should be - went as follows: “ ‘Why' said one of them, the elder of the two, ‘I can remember when they used to shoot down the blacks in this colony as you would do kangaroos, all because they sometimes killed a few sheep. I remember down in the Port District, when the four Parks and three other men, I was one of them, shot sixty-nine in one afternoon. The devils had stolen about 100 sheep and driven them away to the ranges. When they got them there they broke their legs to prevent them escaping, and were killing them and eating them at their leisure ... We all mounted horses, and armed with rifles set off in hot pursuit. It was early morning when we started, and about the middle of the day we came up with the black rascals, and a rare chase we had of it. They set off like mad, about one hundred and fifty of them, never showing fight in the least. The ranges were so rocky that we had to dismount and follow them on foot, and after two or three hours chase we got them beautiful - right between a crossfire, a steep rock on one side they could not climb, and rifles on each of the other.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Australian Aborigines & cultural tourism: case studies of Aboriginal involvement in the tourist industry Abstract The principal focus of this report has been with issues of direct concern to Aboriginal people and communities involved with cultural tourism. Report recommendations stress the need for greater consideration of Aboriginal cultural perspectives in the development and implementation of government policies. A central question to emerge from the study is whether cultural tourism is merely a novel angle within current developments in tourism and enjoying a good deal of attention and enthusiasm from tourist organisations and operators, or whether it is primarily a context for commercial enterprise development by Aboriginal people? A related matter is the question of what purpose Aboriginal ventures in cultural tourism are designed to serve and in whose interests they are developed? Answers to these issues were not always obvious to Aboriginal people involved in the ventures surveyed nor was it necessarily apparent to some of the non-Aboriginal participants. The purpose of Aboriginal tourism ventures is problematic in public policy and in bureaucratic practice.

    4. Water resources Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning Part 4. Water resources This part outlines the key water resources and features in the Wimmera-Mallee Water Resource Plan’s surface water area: Wimmera-Avon, Avoca and Mallee, as well as the Wimmera-Mallee Water Resource Plan’s groundwater area resources. 4.1 Managing water resources: types of water resource supply systems Rivers in the Wimmera-Mallee water resource plan area vary from unregulated, like the Avon and Avoca rivers, to regulated like the Wimmera River. All rivers in the Wimmera-Mallee water resource plan area are undeclared. 4.1.1 Unregulated surface water systems An unregulated catchment is one that does not contain a storage such as a dam or weir, which significantly alters and regulates the flow of the river downstream. An unregulated catchment may contain rivers, creeks and small waterways, and in the case of several unregulated catchments in Victoria, can extend well over 1,000 km2 in area. Unregulated catchments are all undeclared which means that entitlements are bundled. Therefore, an entitlement includes rights to allow both the take and use of water. In unregulated catchments entitlements to water include take and use licences and bulk entitlements (see Chapter 6). All water taken for commercial or irrigation purposes from unregulated catchments must be licensed, including water taken from harvesting dams. The licences are called take and use licences or section 51 licences after the relevant section of the Victorian Water Act. The use of water, and trade of licences between users, is managed by Grampians Wimmera Mallee Water (GWMWater) in accordance with Ministerial trading rules (Minister for Water, 2014a).
