Water Hydrology, no. 25 REG75 Summary The sustainable yield is the maximum quantity of water available for abstraction from a surface water resource after environmental water requirements have been satisfied. In areas where the level of surface water use is low, estimates of the notional sustainable yield are based on regional models and have typically been estimated as a function of the mean annual flow. The Department of Water has developed a simple regional model to determine the mean annual flow, and hence the notional sustainable yields, for systems in the south west of Western Australia with low

  • Youngs Road Feedlot Development Proposal
    Shire of Woodanilling Planning and Development Act 2005 Shire of Woodanilling Notice of public advertisement of planning proposal The local government has received an application to use and/or develop land for the following purpose and public comments are invited. Lot Nos .: 1 and 4 Street: Youngs Road Suburb: Beaufort River Proposal: - Fletcher International Export Pty Ltd (FIE) has submitted an application for a proposed Sheep Feedlot at Ronneby Park Beaufort River with a maximum capacity of 90,000 head of sheep. The sheep will be held for a minimum of 35 days before being transported to the FIE abattoir at Narrikup. The development will include approximately 130 sheep pens; a biosolid stockpile area for sheep manure and carcass management; a sedimentation pond (6,500m3) and an evaporation pond (42,548m3) for capture and holding of effluent runoff. An area for feedlot facilities/operations which will include; truck turnaround areas, grain and silage bunkers and feedlot machinery and equipment. Accommodation will be provided on site for up to 16 employees, using the existing dwellings and five transportable accommodation buildings. Water for the stock will be provided from an existing ground water bore which is proposed to be 4 litres / head / day. This gives a total extraction of 131 ML per annum. The application includes: • Site Plan and Location Plan; • Feedlot Concept Plan; • Operational Environmental Management Plan; • Water Management Plan; • Bushfire Management Plan; and • Construction Management Plan Details of the proposal are available for inspection at the local government office and can also be viewed on the Council’s website www.woodanilling.wa.gov.au Comments on the proposal may be submitted to the local government in writing on or before the 30th January 2020.

  • Integrated Surface Water and Groundwater Modelling to Support the Murray Drainage and Water Management Plan, South-West Western Australia
    19th International Congress on Modelling and Simulation, Perth, Australia, 12–16 December 2011 http://mssanz.org.au/modsim2011 Integrated surface water and groundwater modelling to support the Murray Drainage and Water Management Plan, south-west Western Australia J. Hall a, B. Marillier a, P. Kretschmer a, B. Quinton a a Water Science Branch, Water Resources Management Division, Department of Water, Western Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract: The Murray region in south-west Western Australia is characterised by a high water-table, sandy soils, wetlands of significance, and an extensive agricultural drainage system to relieve water-logging in winter months. Urban growth pressures in the region have led to the requirement of a Drainage and Water Management Plan (DWMP) to guide future water management. A key component of the DWMP involved the development of a regional surface water and groundwater model to determine groundwater levels and flows under various climate, drainage and development scenarios. The Murray regional model was constructed using the integrated surface water and groundwater model MIKE SHE, and consisted of unsaturated zone, saturated zone, channel flow and overland flow components. It had a constant grid spacing of 200 m, and covered an area of 722 km2. Calibration was from 1985 – 2000 and validation from 2000 – 2009 using 45 groundwater bores and 7 surface water flow gauges. The normalised root mean square error of the calibrated model was 2.02%. Land development, drainage and climate scenarios were simulated and their results are discussed in this paper. The process of model conceptualisation, construction, calibration and simulation is discussed, and provides an appropriate framework for model evaluation and a high level of confidence in modelling results.

Following receipt of comments from government agencies and the public, the EPA will prepare an assessment report with recommendations to the government, taking into account issues raised in public submissions. Why write a submission? A submission is a way to provide information, express your opinion and put forward your suggested course of action - including any alternative approach. It is useful if you indicate any suggestions you have to improve the proposal. All submissions received by the EPA will be acknowledged. Submissions may be fully or partially utilised in compiling a summary of the issues raised, or where complex or technical issues are raised, a confidential copy of the submission (or part thereof) may be sent to the proponent. The summary of issues raised is normally inc luded in the EPA's assessment report.
