  • An Economic Assessment of the Value of Recreational Angling at Queensland Dams Involved in the Stocked Impoundment Permit Scheme
    An economic assessment of the value of recreational angling at Queensland dams involved in the Stocked Impoundment Permit Scheme Daniel Gregg and John Rolfe Value of recreational angling in the Queensland SIP scheme Publication Date: 2013 Produced by: Environmental Economics Programme Centre for Environmental Management Location: CQUniversity Australia Bruce Highway North Rockhampton 4702 Contact Details: Professor John Rolfe +61 7 49232 2132 [email protected] www.cem.cqu.edu.au 1 Value of recreational angling in the Queensland SIP scheme Executive Summary Recreational fishing at Stocked Impoundment Permit (SIP) dams in Queensland generates economic impacts on regional economies and provides direct recreation benefits to users. As these benefits are not directly traded in markets, specialist non-market valuation techniques such as the Travel Cost Method are required to estimate values. Data for this study has been collected in two ways in 2012 and early 2013. First, an onsite survey has been conducted at six dams in Queensland, with 804 anglers interviewed in total on their trip and fishing experiences. Second, an online survey has been offered to all anglers purchasing a SIP licence, with 219 responses being collected. The data identifies that there are substantial visit rates across a number of dams in Queensland. For the 31 dams where data was available for this study, recreational anglers purchasing SIP licences have spent an estimated 272,305 days fishing at the dams, spending an average 2.43 days per trip on 2.15 trips per year to spend 4.36 days fishing per angler group. Within those dams there is substantial variation in total fishing effort, with Somerset, Tinaroo, Wivenhoe and North Pine Dam generating more than 20,000 visits per annum.

  • Local Disaster Management Plan V7 June 2021
    Local Disaster Management Plan V7 June 2021 Local Disaster Management Plan (LDMP) ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY We acknowledge and respect the traditional owners of this land on which we live, work and play and respect their cultures, their ancestors and their elder’s past, present and future generations. FOREWORD Councillor Roz Frohloff – Chair, SBRC LDMG Queenslanders are faced with responding to and recovering from disasters that test individual and community resilience every year. No community is immune and whilst such events are relatively infrequent in the South Burnett region, their potential to significantly disrupt social, economic and environmental systems as well as our infrastructure, highlights the importance of being prepared and having effective and coordinated disaster management arrangements in place. When disasters occur, local government has primary responsibility for managing disaster events within its boundaries. The South Burnett Regional Council (SBRC) Local Disaster Management Group (LDMG) has adopted an all-hazards approach and takes a proactive role in the Prevention, Preparedness, Response and Recovery (PPRR) phases. It is recognised that all of us need to be resilient in the face of disaster. It is unrealistic to expect one community, one organisation, or one level of government to be able to respond and recover effectively from the magnitude of such events. Effective disaster management requires a collaborative approach with responsibilities shared by individuals, families, communities, businesses and all levels of government. This Local Disaster Management Plan (LDMP) aims to provide the South Burnett community with a robust multi-agency framework to ensure there is an effective and coordinated response to a disaster event, and to facilitate a speedy return to a safe and secure environment as soon as possible after that event.

  • Provisions of the Burnett Basin Resource Operations Plan Taken to Be Included in the Water Plan (Burnett Basin) 2014–Ss
    Provisions of the Burnett Basin Resource Operations Plan taken to be included in the Water Plan (Burnett Basin) 2014–ss. 1259 and 1264 of the Water Act 2000. Note: This document includes a number of provisions that were previously located in the Burnett Basin Resource Operations Plan 2003. In accordance with section 1259(2)(e) of the Water Act 20001, the provisions contained in this document, including any associated attachments, are to be read as being provisions of the Water Plan (Burnett Basin) 2014. Despite not currently being located in the water plan, these provisions carry the same authority and are subject to the same legislative requirements as the provisions contained in the water plan. The provisions contained in this document have retained the same section numbering as that contained in the superseded Burnett Basin Resource Operations Plan 2003. However, the section numbering will change when incorporated into the water plan by the Office of Queensland Parliamentary Counsel. For clarity, cross references to sections in the Water Act 2000, Water Regulation 2016 and Water Plan (Burnett Basin) 2014 have been updated. Furthermore, cross references to sections in the new planning instruments, which came into effect on 6 December 2016, have also been updated. 1 On 6 December 2016, amendments to the Water Act 2000, made by the Water Reform and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2014, came into effect.
