Pg. 49 The Millennium Drought Riverbank Failures - Lower Murray River || 4 SUMMARY At the peak of the Millennium Drought pool levels of the Lower River Murray fell 1.8 metres below the normal operating range (+0.75m AHD) and triggered at least sixty mass failures of the alluvial riverbanks (e.g. the Long-Island Marina Failure). Ground subsidence also occurred in some river-adjacent floodplain deposits (e.g. the Caloote Landing Event) between Blanchetown and Lake Alexandrina, South Australia. Bathymetric mapping of the river channel indicates that the majority of the larger bank failure features are associated with deep scour holes that have been eroded into the channel floor due to either: a) bedrock margin constriction and pronounced narrowing of the channel cross-section or b) large outcrops of bedrock which protrude up from the floor of the channel. This has generated erosive flow patterns during periods of higher flow that have scoured deep holes and eroded the toe of the downstream riverbank and over-steepened the channel margins. Riverbanks located adjacent or near to deep scour holes in the channel are over-steepened and more likely to fail during periods of lowered pool level. Slope stability modelling indicates that the bank failures during the Millennium Drought were caused by the lowered river levels that were extant during this time. In addition, the presence of Soft Clay within the bank materials and local anthropogenic modifications of the banks increase the likelihood of failure. In particular, riverbanks that have been modified by the placement of fill or the construction of an embankment adjacent to the waterline are more likely to fail than unmodified banks. It is probable that these modifications have accelerated and amplified natural

  • Mid Murray Council.Pdf
    __/ Mid v--- Murray Council FROM THE OFFICE OF THE MAYOR Ref: 5/LIA/1/MM 15 December 2020 Mr Michael Lennon Chair State Planning Commission GPO Box 1815 ADELAIDE SA 5001 Dear Mr Lennon, Consultation Submission – Revised Planning and Design Code Thank you for the opportunity to provide comment on the revised Planning and Design Code. Mid Murray Council are a Phase 3 Council and see this as the final opportunity to ensure our local policy, particularly, as it relates to the sensitive River Murray environment is not lost or eroded. Please find below a detailed submission which has been endorsed by Council’s Strategic Planning and Policy Development Committee, as well as the full Council. Preamble The purpose of this submission is threefold, firstly to consider the new Zones of the Code and how certain Zones and Policy Areas (within the Development Plan) are to be transitioned, and consider whether the ‘right’ choice has been made for the Zone. If not, suggestions are tabled as to what might be a more suitable Zone given the context outlined. Secondly, the submission seeks to flesh out whether there are opportunities in limited circumstances where there is obvious disparity between the existing built form and landscape character to the zoning intent of the current Zone or Policy Area, and in these circumstances consider an appropriate Zone in the Code that might be more reflective and cognisant of the existing situation and perhaps sway away from unrealistic policy of the current Zone in the context to a more appropriate Code Zone. For example, parts of the Urban Waterfront (Floodplain) Zone containing dwellings and riverfront residential allotments being transitioned to a Recreation Zone (which contemplates, among other things, sporting grounds) would appear to suggest an alternative Zone might be appropriate.

The study area was the floodplain of the Murray River and its anabranches, including the Edward-Wakool system, from below Hume Dam to the upper end of Lake Alexandrina. The components of the study were: · Literature Review A comprehensive bibliography was compiled on the floodplain vegeta­ tion, its environment and the impact ofman's activities. The literature was reviewed and summarised. · Floristic Survey A field survey was carried out, visiting 112 sites throughout the study area and collecting vegetation data from 335 plots. Data collected were the species present, their relative abundance, the condition of the eucalypts, the amount ofeucalypt regeneration and indices ofgrazing pressure. Brief studies were made of the effects of river regulation and salinisation at specific sites. Thirty-seven plant communities were identified from a numerical analyis ofthe floristic survey data. The differences reflect environmental changes both along the river and across the floodplain. The most important factors were identified as soil salinity levels and flooding frequency.

    River Murray – Darling to Sea Expert Technical Workshop, 1-3 July Part B - Workshop Outcomes 2: Threats 57 River Murray – Darling to Sea Expert Technical Workshop, 1-3 July Part B - Workshop Outcomes 2: Threats Threats and Future Trends Climate Change A recent Pew Centre report on Aquatic Ecosystems and Global Climate Change1 reported: Increases in water temperatures as a result of climate change will alter fundamental ecological processes and the geographic distribution of aquatic species. Such impacts may be ameliorated if species attempt to adapt by migrating to suitable habitat. However, human alteration of potential migratory corridors may limit the ability of species to relocate, increasing the likelihood of species extinction and loss of biodiversity. Changes in seasonal patterns of precipitation and runoff will alter hydrologic characteristics of aquatic systems, affecting species composition and ecosystem productivity. Populations of aquatic organisms are sensitive to changes in the frequency, duration, and timing of extreme precipitation events, such as floods or droughts. Aquatic ecosystems have a limited ability to adapt to climate change. Reducing the likelihood of significant impacts to these systems will be critically dependent on human activities that reduce other sources of ecosystem stress and enhance adaptive capacity. The impacts of anthropogenic induced climate change lead to increased temperature and reduced rainfall. Reduced rainfall and changed seasonality of rainfall can have a significant effect runoff (in general, a 1% decline in rainfall equates to a 2-3% decline in runoff). In addition, changes to local rainfall patterns can have an important influence on associated wetlands (averaged annual rainfall and modelled runoff are shown by figure below).
