( Palaeontologist, National 1J1usem·n, JJ:[elboiirne) and Professor TV. N. Benson, B.A., D.Sc. (University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealcind.) The Australian graptolite fauna is probably the most complete in the world, certainly in regard to its Ordovician components, a fact clearly appreciated by McCoy. He had ready for the press descriptions and figures of most of the species afterwards described in J amcs Hall's J\fonograph published iu 1865, which may be regarded as the basis of systematic graptolite research, when he received from Hall a proof of his fignres. McCoy immediately conceded him priority and adopted his specific names. Had Hall delayed sending his proof, McCoy wonld certainly have pnblisl1ed his figures and descriptions and his name would have been just as pl'ominent in the literature of graptoliies as Hall's.

  • Moorabool Shire Council Submission to the PADR
    Niluksha Herath 26 June, 2019 Manager Western Victorian Renewable Integration RIT-T Australian Energy Market Operator Via electronic lodgement File: 13/03/010 [email protected] Dear Niluksha, MOORABOOBL SHIRE COUNCIL SUBMISSION - WESTERN VICTORIAN RENEWABLE INTEGRATION PROJECT ASSESSMENT DRAFT REPORT Introduction Moorabool Shire Council (the Shire) welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission in response to the Western Victoria Renewable Integration Project Assessment Draft Report (PADR). We thank the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) for their recent briefing and the opportunity to provide this submission. The Shire recognises the importance of this significant renewable energy infrastructure project and applauds AEMO for commencing a project that has the potential to provide significant community benefit including increased employment opportunities, not just for Moorabool Shire residents but more broadly across Western Victoria. The Shire is generally supportive of renewable energy, which is evidenced through the substantial number of wind farms that are both operational and under construction within the municipality. However, the Shire is also mindful of achieving a balanced outcome where the amenity of the Shire is not unreasonably compromised by the visual intrusion that such infrastructure projects can have on the landscape and angst this causes within the community. As per our recent briefing from AEMO, it is understood that there is currently insufficient capacity within the existing transmission infrastructure to enable the amount of proposed renewable energy generation in Western Victoria. As a result, AEMO is undertaking a Regulatory Investment Test for Transmission (RIT-T) to assess the viability of increasing transmission network capacity in the Western Victoria region, to facilitate the efficient connection and operation of new and existing generation in the region.

  • Darley-Power-Fight.Pdf
    Response to the Renewable Energy Zone Development Plan Directions Paper I am contacting you to provide feedback on the State Government of Victoria REZ Development Plan Directions Paper with specific reference to the Western: V3 Project, the Western Victoria Transmission Network Project (WVTNP) North Ballarat to Bulgana. This project involves constructing a 500kV overhead transmission line from North Ballarat to Sydenham. The project has been identified in the REZ Development Plan Directions Paper as having a ‘High Risk’ of delivery for the following reasons: • Project within greenfield area therefore vegetation clearing required. • Infrastructure close to sensitive areas • Conflicting land use • Potential conflicting regarding future residential development. • Potential community concerns regarding increased visual impacts and environmental impacts. The proponent for the WVTNP, AusNet Services, has identified an Area of Interest (AoI) and has further narrowed potential corridors, one of these is immediately north of Darley between existing residential and the Lerderderg State Park. I am the spokesperson for Darley Power Fight, a group representing communities in Darley, Coimadai and Merrimu, Victoria. We are in full support of Renewable Energy Zones provided associated projects are delivered through effective stakeholder consultation with consideration of communities, the environment, and economic impacts. The current regulatory framework does not consider the projects disbenefit and only considers project cost versus economic benefit

  • Maddingley Energy Precinct
    CASE STUDY Maddingley Energy Precinct What we are doing We are working hard to develop Australia’s first Waste to Energy facility. This technology is already operating at 4,000 sites globally with the supplier installing a further 40 sites annually. We will create jobs, help alleviate the waste management crisis in Victoria and create a sustainable base-load supply of electricity. We will avoid thousands of tonnes of CO2 emissions per annum. The project will maximise the value from the diverted waste and has the potential to expand once established. Waste, siting, and technical solutions have all been secured. Testing of the waste shows high energy content with easily managed emissions. How we are doing it Waste to Energy While undeveloped in Australia the WTE industry is well established globally. There are thousands of plants in operation, using differing technology to convert waste into energy and reduce landfill. Japan is a leader in the field, with almost no landfills in the country. Europe also has a large number of WTE facilities, driven by the restriction on space. Victoria has adopted European standards for emissions for WTE, making technology selection more straight forward. The Process Calleja Transport will deliver 100,000 tonnes per annum of appropriate waste to the facility from their transfer stations. Waste will be sorted to ensure integrity of feedstock. The indoor sorting facility will ensure the waste standard, minimising emissions and maximising recycling. Waste will be shredded and combusted in a controlled environment to power the steam turbines. The steam turbines will produce a base-load supply of 10MW of electricity to the grid.

  • Parish and Township Plan Numbers
    Parish and Township plan numbers This is a complete list of Victorian parishes and townships, together with plan numbers assigned by the Victorian Department of Crown Lands and Survey at some point between 1950 and 1970. The list has been reproduced from the Vicmap Reference Tables on the Department of Sustainability and Environment's land information website. Browse the list or use a keyword search to identify the plan number/s for a location. The plans are listed alphabetically. Townships and parishes are inter-sorted on the list. Some entries refer to locations within parishes or townships; these entries may be duplicated. The plan number can be used to locate copies of plans that PROV holds in the series VPRS 16171 Regional Land Office Plans Digitised Reference Set. For example, using the Search within a Series page on the PROV online catalogue with series number '16171' and the text '5030' will return the specific plans relating to the township of Ballarat. In this case, searching for 'Ballaarat' by name will return al the plans in the Ballarat land district, covering much of central and western Victoria. PROV does not hold copies of plans for the locations highlighted in pale yellow below. In most cases this is because parish-level plans were not created for areas such as national parks, where there were few land transactions to record. Plans showing these locations can be downloaded from the landata website under the section 'Central Plan Office Records'. 5001 Township of Aberfeldy 2016 Parish of Angora 2001 Parish of Acheron 2017
