APPENDICES A Questionnaire to Councils 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND NSW Fisheries is currently preparing fishery management strategies for the State’s commercial marine fisheries. Concurrently, environmental assessments are being prepared under Division 5, Part 5 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. The assessments will estimate the level of pressure on the environment from the fishing activities and predict the likely impacts of implementing the draft fishery management strategies. The guidelines for the preparation of the environmental assessments issued by the Department of Urban Affairs and Planning (DUAP) requires that among other issues NSW Fisheries must address noise, light, air quality, and energy and greenhouse issues. SMEC Environment was commissioned by NSW Fisheries to prepare assessments addressing noise, light, air quality, and energy and greenhouse issues for three commercial fisheries, Estuary General, Ocean Hauling and Estuary Prawn Trawl. This report presents the assessment for the Ocean Hauling Fishery. 1.2 METHODOLOGY Ocean Hauling Fishing: • involves five different fishing methods; • is undertaken by about 375 fishing businesses; • occurs on beaches and in waters along the entire NSW coastline; and • involves over 17 species. This complexity has made it impossible to assess each activity and region in the Ocean Hauling Fishery separately. The methodology adopted involved: • consultation with NSW Fisheries, members of the fishing industry and local councils; • broadly describing each method of fishing and identifying the activities that may generate noise, light or air emissions; • identifying the types of land use that occurs surrounding beaches where Ocean Hauling Fishing is conducted; • combining the above two factors to identify whether there was any potential for significant adverse effects; and • identifying mitigation measures to minimise or reduce identified areas of impact. Greenhouse and energy issues were considered by examination of the fishing fleet and methods of fishing. To present the findings of the investigations this report contains four sections: 1. this brief introduction; 2. a description of the fishing activity and estuarine environment; 3. an impact assessment for noise, light and air quality issues; and 31229.001 October 2001 1-3 Ocean Hauling EIA Report 4. a consideration of greenhouse and energy issues. 1.3 CONSULTATION To facilitate an understanding of the Ocean Hauling Fishery and relevant environmental issues consultation was undertaken with members of the Ocean Hauling Management Advisory Committee (OHMAC), Local Councils and the staff of NSW Fisheries. i Consultation With OHMAC Members A number of members from OHMAC were contacted regarding issues in the Ocean Hauling Fishery. These members of OHMAC serve as industry representatives for commercial fishing operators in the Ocean Hauling Fishery, and have first-hand experience of the fisheries’ issues. The Ocean Hauling Fishery is subject to a large number of restrictions, the majority of which are imposed by NSW Fisheries. The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) also imposes some restrictions in areas that are bounded by National Parks, and particularly beaches where access is through National Parks. Local councils play a limited role in controlling commercial fishing activities, with their input generally limited to access controls on beaches. Responses from OHMAC members indicate that the noise, light, air quality, and energy and greenhouse issues relating to Ocean Hauling tend to be fairly limited. Most commercial fishermen undertaking Ocean Hauling activities tend to be responsible and implement necessary measures to mitigate any possible impacts. The following list outlines the issues raised regarding noise, light and air quality/energy and greenhouse issues. • Noise Issues Noise is probably the main issue arising from Ocean Hauling activities. However, these issues are fairly limited. For the most part, Ocean Hauling activities that generate any substantial noise, such as motors or winches, tend to occur a reasonable distance from the coast. Hauling that occurs on beaches is most commonly done by hand, and so generates very minimal noise. Generally, Ocean Hauling occurs during daytime hours when noise considerations are less pertinent. Although not addressed as an issue, some Ocean Hauling fishers do access the beaches with four wheel drive vehicles equipped with winches. These would generate substantial levels of noise. • Light Issues Ocean Hauling is predominantly a daytime exercise and as such, there are very few light issues associated with Ocean Hauling. Any Ocean Hauling that occurs during the night tends to be in open waters well removed from any residential areas. • Air Quality/Energy and Greenhouse Issues The air quality and energy issues were considered to be minimal. Where hand beach hauling is concerned, there are no air quality or energy issues, except vehicle emissions associated with gaining access to the beach. Emissions in relation to the use of four wheel drive based winches for hauling were not raised. Boat based hauling does generate some issues through the use of motors, but these are considered to be minor. 31229.001 October 2001 1-4 Ocean Hauling EIA Report ii Consultation With Local Councils Questionnaires were sent to seven local councils, Eurobodalla Shire Council, Maclean Shire Council, Great Lakes Council, Lake Macquarie City Council, Port Stephens Council, Greater Taree City Council and Richmond Valley Council. A copy of the questionnaire is included as Appendix A. These councils were selected because there is a diverse range of commercial fishing carried out within their areas, including Ocean Hauling. Three responses were received, from Eurobodalla Shire Council, Greater Taree City Council and Port Stephens Council. The responses were, on the whole, very similar with all indicating that these Councils had very little to do with commercial fishing management, largely because the Councils do not have the staff expertise to effectively deal with fishery issues. As a result, management of commercial fishing is left to NSW Fisheries. No public complaints had been received at the three Councils about noise, light, air

    THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM REDFERN The Annual Post-Graduate Oration, delivered on April 29, 1953, in the Great Hall of the University of Sydney. This oration is delivered to commemorate those who have advanced the art and science of medicine in New South Wales. By EDWARD FORD, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and Professor of Preventive Medicine in the University of Sydney. THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM REDFERN THE LIFE AND WORK OF WILLIAM REDFERN By EDWARD FORD, Dean of the Faculty of Medicine and Professor of Preventive Medicine, University of Sydney. WILLIAM REDFERN, one of our most distinguished Australian medical forebears, arrived on these shores, in trial and despair, over a century and a half ago. He came as a convict who suffered in turn the horror of a sentence of death, the misery of life imprisonment and exile, and a bitter residue of disdain and persecution. Yet William Redfern rose from the depths to an honoured place in our history. He was a pioneer of Australian medicine, agriculture and husbandry, and a citizen who contributed greatly to the welfare of the early colony. He was the first medical practitioner to receive an Australian qualification, and our first teacher of medical students. It is an honour to recall, in this Sixth Post-Graduate Oration, the work of William Redfern and the debt we owe to him. This is made possible by the records of his day, stored richly in the Mitchell Library, and by the biographical work of the late Dr. Norman Dunlop (1928a, b) and other historians.

  • Severe Storms on the East Coast of Australia 1770–2008
    SEVERE STORMS ON THE EAST COAST OF AUSTRALIA 1770 – 2008 Jeff Callaghan Research Fellow, Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Qld Formerly Head Severe Storm Forecaster, Bureau of Meteorology, Brisbane Dr Peter Helman Senior Research Fellow, Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Qld Published by Griffith Centre for Coastal Management, Griffith University, Gold Coast, Queensland 10 November 2008 This publication is copyright. Apart from any fair dealing for the purpose of private study, research, criticism or review, as permitted under the Copyright Act, no part may be reproduced by any process without written permission from the publisher. ISBN: 978-1-921291-50-0 Foreword Severe storms can cause dramatic changes to the coast and devastation to our settlements. If we look back through history, to the first European observations by James Cook and Joseph Banks on Endeavour in 1770, we can improve our understanding of the nature of storms and indeed climate on the east coast. In times of climate change, it is essential that we understand natural climate variability that occurs in Australia. Looking back as far as we can is essential to understand how climate is likely to behave in the future. Studying coastal climate through this chronology is one element of the process. Analysis of the records has already given an indication that east coast climate fluctuates between phases of storminess and drought that can last for decades. Although records are fragmentary and not suitable for statistical analysis, patterns and climate theory can be derived. The dependence on shipping for transport and goods since European settlement ensures a good source of information on storms that gradually improves over time.

  • Joseph Sherrard-3
    Joseph Sherrard first came to my notice as I was exploring the remarkable life of his great niece, Lucy Sherrard Finley (Mrs. Atkinson). I discovered that not only was Lucy an intrepid traveller and explorer but that her great uncle had also travelled far beyond English shores, indeed into the Pacific Ocean. In Joseph’s case, his adventures were undertaken as a member of His Majesty’s Navy but what makes his story so compelling for us today is that his voyages were undertaken when the Pacific was just opening up to European exploration and the settlement of New South Wales had only just begun. He sailed and rubbed shoulders with men whose names are both legends in the history of exploration and, also, famous in the history of colonial Australia. It is for this reason that, while not known to history himself, it has been possible to reconstruct so much of his fascinating story. We know from the Royal Navy Muster Book that Joseph Sherrard was born in Southwark, Surrey. One Muster record puts his year of birth as 1775 but a second Muster record, together with his death records, puts his year of birth as 1773. There would appear to be two possibilities as to his parentage. First, the register of St. George the Martyr, Southwark records the following entry for February 20, 1773: “Joseph, Son of Samuel Sherrard, Parish Clerk, and Mary Sherrard, his Wife, born this day.” However, also in the Borough of Southwark, in Rotherhithe, one York Sherrard married Elizabeth Robinson on November 1, 1773.

ALEXANDER WILSON says that Robert Forrester informed him that he had shot a native Boy, and that he was induced to it from motives of humanity. The Boy having been previously thrown into the River by the neighbouring settlers, with his hands so tied, that it was impossible he could swim to the opposite side. ROBERT FORRESTER says that a large party of natives having appeared at the back of his Farm he alarmed his neighbours and went out to observe them. That in the road to the natives they met a Native Boy who they supposed was coming in for the purpose of discovering what arms they had. That they made him a prisoner; tied his hands behind his back [376] and delivered him to MICHAEL DOYLE to take to his [?]. That he was soon after alarmed by a cry from Doyles that the boy was escaped and had jumped into the River. That he and TWYFIELD immediately ran to the river and saw the boy swimming. That he then was prevailed on to shoot the boy by the importunities and testacies of all around. That the boy should get back to the natives and induce them to an attack by discovering there was no more than one musket in the whole neighbourhood.
