Review of the Conservation Status of Marine Mammal Species in NSW. A report to the NSW Scientific Committee. NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. Hurstville NSW. ISBN 0 7313 6398 1 FOREWORD The NSW Scientific Committee was established in 1996 following the enactment of the Threatened Species Conservation Act, 1995 (TSC Act). The Committee is independent and consists of 10 Scientists appointed by the Minister for the Environment. The functions of the Committee include the assessment of nominations to list endangered and vulnerable species, endangered populations, endangered ecological communities and key threatening processes in the Schedules of the TSC Act. The Committee is also required to keep the Schedules under review. Following the publication by the Commonwealth Government of two Action Plans concerning marine mammals, the Scientific Committee undertook to reassess the conservation status of marine mammals in NSW by engaging Dr Peter Smith to carry out a review. Reviews have also been undertaken on marine reptiles and albatrosses within NSW waters.

  • Submission 51
    Taree Customer Service Centre: 26 Muldoon Street PO Box 671 Taree NSW 2430 Ph: (02) 6592 4802 Fax: (02) 6555 8516 NH:LG 9 November 2010 The Productivity Commission Urban Water Inquiry LB2 Collins Street East MELBOURNE VIC 8003 Dear Commissioner RE: THE AUSTRALIA’S URBAN WATER SECTORS ENQUIRY INTO THE AUSTRALIAN WATER INDUSTRY Due to the tight timeframes MidCoast Water (MCW) is not the issue within the scope of the enquiry. MCW is of the view that particularly in NSW there needs to be a complete review of how water and sewerage services are delivered in regional NSW. In 2008 the NSW Government commenced an enquiry into the delivery of water and sewerage services to communities across NSW. MCW made a comprehensive submission which an update version is attached. The main thrust of our submission was that there should be only 14 utilities to deliver water and sewerage services throughout regional NSW. This excludes Sydney and Hunter Water and the newly formed Central Coast Water Authority. MCW model was for Local Government to still remain control through the County Council system. Since the enquiry, in Tasmania the model of Council owned utilities has been implemented. MCW submission was not popular within the Local Government industry in NSW. NSW Councils have used the water and sewer funds to heavily subsidise the other Council business units due to the imposition of rate pegging in NSW. The draft report arising from the inquiry recommended that there be 32 groups of Councils across NSW and it would be left to the Councils on the type of group that they could belong to.
