Acknowledgements Data compilation: PricewaterhouseCoopers Editor: Ann White Cover photo Lake Bellfield, The Grampians Foreword Low rainfall and severe drought conditions were major challenges for Victorians in 2006/07, changing the way we view and manage our limited water resources. The eleventh consecutive year of drought in Victoria saw water storage levels and streamflows drop to seriously low levels in many basins. Water businesses, in consultation with the Victorian Government, implemented their drought response plans and a range of contingency measures to ensure water continued to flow to meet basic human needs. Victorians in urban areas cut their water use dramatically through a combination of water restrictions and conservation measures such as rainwater tanks and more efficient showerheads. Increased use of groundwater and recycled water, and increased water trading activity were some of the short- term actions relied upon to ensure water was available in those areas that needed it most. The drought continues to highlight the importance of annually recording and reporting on the availability and use of Victoria’s water resources. It also underlines the importance of The Next Stage of the Government’s Water Plan, announced in June 2007, which includes $4.9 billion in new infrastructure projects to secure water supplies for our future. The Victorian Water Accounts 2006-2007 is the fourth consecutive publication to provide a State-wide overview of Victoria’s water resource availability and use at bulk supply level. It contributes to the body of knowledge and information available to Government and other parties involved in water resource management across Victoria. I commend it as an important account of water availability, entitlement, use and related drought response measures for the 2006/07 year.

Box 431 Milsons Point NSW WALKS GRADING Day Walk: A day walk means walking all day - the walks usually start at 8:00am and finish by dark. Often we have dinner afterwards. Weekend Walk: A weekend walk may start Friday night and camp at the start or early Saturday morning. On the first day, the party usually gets to camp after 3:00pm and before dark, (hopefully). Happy hour occurs before dinner and is a time when party members share ‘nibbles’. The next day’s walking could start between first light and 9:00am, usually 8:00 to 8:30am. We usually get back to the cars between early afternoon and dark. After dark finishes do happen, however they are usually not planned for. Often a dinner is arranged at a venue on the way home. THE GRADING SYSTEM The Grading System is shown at the bottom of each page and has 4 categories: (D)istance, (F)itness, (A)scent, (T)errain and (E)xposure Distance S < 10km, M 10-19km, L 20-30km, X >30km; Fitness 1-3; Ascent 1-3; Terrain 1-3; Exposure D - Distance: S - Short under 10 km per day M- Medium 10 - 20 km per day L - Long 20 - 30 km per day X - Extra Long more than 30 km per day F - Fitness: 1 Beginners - frequent long rest breaks 2 Intermediate fitness - stand up regroups, morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea breaks, stops for views 3 Strenuous, fit walkers only - short regroups, short meal breaks A - Ascent: 1 Flat to undulating 2 Undulating with one or more 200m to 300m climbs 3 Climbs of 300m plus, or one or more large steep climbs T - Terrain: 1 Formed tracks and / or open terrain, no scrub 2 Sections of rough track and / or off track and/or creek crossing and / or rock scrambling 3 Similar to 2 for long periods and / or thick scrub E - Exposure: Mild to high exposure to heights (yes or no) Note that some walks may involve an exploratory component where the leader is exploring a new area or feature.

The year started with water supplies and inflows at extremely low levels and it ended with storages in a worse situation: the total volume stored in Victoria’s major rural reservoirs fell from 22 per cent of capacity at the start of the year to only 17 per cent.

    Web Version Gecko Winter 2010

    Welcome to this edition of Gecko. During the last 12 months there has been another amazing effort with improvements to the 68 sites across the mountains as a result of the 9252 volunteer hours. The bushcare team would like to thank every one of the 490 people who contribute to this, month after month. Just in case you have a free day and wish to go and help another group, I have been trying to find space to list all the regular Bushcare & Landcare groups and when they meet – but unfortunately there’s always too much to fit in. Maybe next Gecko? In the meantime if you’d like a list, just give me a call and I’ll send it.
