In addition to all the usual events, our first celebration was the 100th anniversary Ball at ICMS Manly on 1st September 2018. It was a memorable event, with representation from our own past going back up to 60 years. The very next day back at the Club, we christened a new surf boat, the Kevin “Spook” Moffat. Kevin is an icon, having been active since completion of his Bronze medallion in 1965. Planning for our 100th anniversary carnival started months in advance, and culminated with the event on 20th October 2018. Amongst the many events was the famous Curly 1000 Beach Sprint, with prize money for both the fastest male and female sprinters. Many dignitaries were entertained on the Club House deck in perfect conditions. Thanks to everyone involved in making it a special day for South Curly. If not for Steve Hall’s inspiration I doubt the event would have occurred. As in past years, our Cadets had an annual start of season trip up North to Treachery at Seal Rocks. This was another successful venture and helps to motivate this group to be involved while doing the activities they enjoy. Thanks to Al Saunders and all others who help run this group. Operationally, this season we ran with 25 patrols, with each rostered patrol being a half day. Each Patrol completes 5 or 6 half-day patrols for the season. I would like to personally thank everyone who put in the hours and kept our beach open and safe. This season we had 380 junior members, and 30 cadets. Our 274 patrolling members makes us the 8th strongest club in the Northern Beaches based on Patrol num- bers. The involvement of Nipper parents, plus the progression of Nippers through to cadets, juniors and sen- iors is one of the most significant reasons why our Club is so sound, and such a great place to be involved. This year was especially good, with not only age managers, parents and cadets becoming bronze holders but also former nippers and cadets now rowing surf boats as well. Our education and training continued soundly this season under management by Mike Le Geyt. The effort he puts in is amazing, and the team all worked well together. Special mentions go to Sue Hanley and Natalie Neary for their work with the Bronze squads. My personal thanks to the entire training group, as they just keep making our standards higher. We also collected branch awards for Mike as ICMS Assessor of the Year, and our Club won the ICMS most outstanding club for education. South Curly is famous for competition in surf boats, and this year was as good as ever. Our experienced sweeps are leading new crews on to great heights and winning against much older and more experienced crews. At the State carnival we achieved 2 gold, plus one at the ASRL carnival. At the Aussies we had 9 crews competing. We cleaned up in the new short course event by taking gold for both men’s and women’s events. Our U19 girls also took out

It may be reproduced for study, research or training purposes subject to the inclusion of an acknowledgement of the source and no commercial usage or sale. Reproduction for purposes other than those listed requires permission from Sydney Water. Sewage Treatment System Impact Monitoring Program | Vol 1 Data Report 2019-20 Page | i Executive summary Background Sydney Water operates 23 wastewater treatment systems and each system has an Environment Protection Licence (EPL) regulated by the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA). Each EPL specifies the minimum performance standards and monitoring that is required. The Sewage Treatment System Impact Monitoring Program (STSIMP) commenced in 2008 to satisfy condition M5.1a of our EPLs. The results are reported to the NSW EPA every year. The STSIMP aims to monitor the environment within Sydney Water’s area of operations to determine general trends in water quality over time, monitor Sydney Water’s performance and to determine where Sydney Water’s contribution to water quality may pose a risk to environmental ecosystems and human health. The format and content of 2019-20 Data Report predominantly follows four earlier reports (2015-16 to 2018-19). Sydney Water’s overall approach to monitoring (design and method) is consistent with the Australian and New Zealand Environment and Conservation Council (ANZECC 2000 and ANZG 2018) guidelines.

  • Comparison of Carbon Production and Decomposition, Benthic Nutrient Fluxes and Denitrification in Seagrass, Phytoplankton, Benthic Microalgae-And Macroalgae-Dominated Warm-Temperate
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 229: 43–59, 2002 Published March 20 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Comparison of carbon production and decomposition, benthic nutrient fluxes and denitrification in seagrass, phytoplankton, benthic microalgae- and macroalgae- dominated warm-temperate Australian lagoons Bradley D. Eyre*, Angus J. P. Ferguson Centre for Coastal Management, Southern Cross University, Lismore , New South Wales 2480, Australia ABSTRACT: The influence of marine plants representing different stages of eutrophication on carbon decomposition and production, benthic nutrient fluxes and denitrification was examined in 4 shallow warm-temperate Australian lagoons. Differences in carbon production and decomposition across the lagoons were the main regulators of the quantity and quality of benthic nutrient fluxes and the rela- tive proportion of nitrogen lost through denitrification. For example, the efficiency with which the lagoon sediments recycled nitrogen as N2, (i.e. denitrification efficiency: N2-N/(N2-N + DIN), decreased as carbon decomposition rates increased. C:N ratios of the remineralised organic matter in some of the plant-sediment systems were much higher than expected from the stoichiometry of the dominant carbon supply. Dark DON fluxes were also very high in all the plant-sediment systems (30 to 80% of the total nitrogen flux). We offer 2 alternative explanations for the observed sediment and benthic flux characteristics: (1) The low dark C:N ratios of the remineralised organic matter may have been due to dark uptake by benthic microalgae and possibly other plants. The large DON effluxes were either the hydrolysis product of freshly produced in situ organic material or/and associated with the grazing of benthic microalgae.

  • ANZAC Day Is a Day Where We Remember All Who Have Fought in the Wars of the World. It Is Also a Time When We Think of Our Famili
    Aboriginal Heritage Office Yarnuping Education Series Ku-ring-gai, Lane Cove, North Sydney, Northern Beaches, Strathfield and Willoughby Councils © Copyright Aboriginal Heritage Office www.aboriginalheritage.org Yarnuping 3 ANZAC DAY - Lest We Forget Karen Smith Education Officer ANZAC Day is a day where we remember all who have fought in the wars of the world. It is also a time when we think of our families’ stories and I would like to share a story from my own family. On May 1816 Governor Macquarie promised 30 Acres of land to Nurragingy and Colbee, son of Yarramundi from the Boorooberongal Clan. Macquarie said it was granted for ’their fidelity to Government and their recent good conduct’1 for their work in guiding. In 1820 the land was officially given to ‘Colbee and his heirs and assigns to have and to hold forever’2. By 1920 the government had forcibly removed the heirs and sold the land. “It is an irony that in the period prior to this final dispossession, when their family was increasingly under attack from Government authorities, descendants of Maria Lock* and families connected to them were amongst those young and not so young men who sought to serve with the Australian Imperial force of first AIF”3. * Maria Lock is Yarramudi’s Daughter, Colebee is Maria’s Brother Leanne Tobin’s Painting of Macquarie’s Land Grant opposite the Native Institution were the children were taken Copyright: Leanne Tobin Many Australians do not know the history of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people with the Australian Defence Force.

  • Cronulla SLSC Annual Report 2013-14
    CRONULLA SURF LIFE SAVING CLUB 107TH ANNUAL REPORT 2013-2014 SEASON MICHAEL BANISTER’S MERITORIOUS AWARD On Sunday 1st of January 2012 at approximately 7 p.m., Club Member, Michael Banister and his family after parking their car at the southern end of Prince Street, North Cronulla started walking along the Esplanade south towards Cronulla Beach. As they walked, Michael noticed a group of approximately ten people playing on a sand bank close to the shore. Two of this group were further out and had jumped into a large hole not realizing they had jumped into a rip. They managed to drift south with the rip onto an outer bank where they were able to stand. It was at this stage Michael said to his wife Sue that they were in a dangerous place. Michael and his family continued their walk and made it to the Alley Rock Pool when Michael noticed that two of the group was trying to swim back to the inner bank across the gully that had formed a strong rip. They were not strong swimmers and started to struggle, but they were lucky enough to get back to the outer bank. At this point Michael became concerned about their safety. He decided to return to North Cronulla, while his wife Sue continued on to collect the children who had run ahead to Cronulla. As Michael started walking back, two of the swimmers attempted to swim back to the inner bank again. They started to struggle as the rip seemed to be stronger. At this stage Michael summed up the situation and formed a plan for rescuing the two.
