  • ISC Full Document FINAL DRAFT 070204 1700
    Dr Ian Mansergh, Dr Alan Newsome and Dr David Shorthouse Summary This report was commissioned by New South Wales (NSW) National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) as part of the brief to the Independent Scientific Committee (ISC) to examine the scientific significance and condition of attributes of the Kosciuszko National Park. The park’s diverse habitats support populations of about 300 native terrestrial (non-aquatic) vertebrate species - mostly Australian endemics - and an unknown number of invertebrate species. The Kosciuszko faunal assemblage is of national significance, and it makes a major contribution to an internationally significant environmental region that includes the adjacent Alpine National Park in Victoria and Namadgi National Park in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT). Contribution to international significance · The total vertebrate biodiversity of Kosciuszko National Park compares very well with other (large) temperate montane/alpine national parks in North and South America, and is significant for the presence of representatives of all subclasses and infraclasses of mammals (Monotremata, Marsupialia and Eutheria). The high diversity of reptile species, especially above the snowline, is also notable. · Thirteen vertebrate taxa with populations in the park are listed as threatened or near threatened by the World Conservation Union (IUCN). · The international significance of the mountain pygmy-possum Burramys parvus and a variety of other features lends strength to the acceptance of the area under World Heritage criterion (i). If invertebrates - poorly known at present - are considered, criterion (iii), perhaps criterion (i), and the biodiversity representation aspects of (iv) would be met or exceeded. · Some long-term studies in the park are internationally important in helping to resolve global scientific-conservation questions, and the park is well placed to assist the international investigations into greenhouse climate change and its effects on biodiversity.

The information contained in this report was considered by the ACT Heritage Council in assessing the nomination for the Corroboree Ground and Aboriginal Cultural Area, Queanbeyan River against the heritage significance criteria outlined in s 10 of the Heritage Act 2004. HISTORY The Ngunnawal people are traditionally affiliated with the lands within the Canberra region. In this citation, ‘Aboriginal community’ refers to the Ngunnawal people and other Aboriginal groups within the ACT who draw significance from the place. Whilst the term ‘Aboriginal community’ acknowledges these groups in the ACT, it is recognised that their traditional territories extend outside contemporary borders. These places attest to a rich history of Aboriginal connection to the area. Traditional Aboriginal society in Canberra during the nineteenth century suffered from dramatic depopulation and alienation from traditional land based resources, although some important social institutions like intertribal gatherings and corroborees were retained to a degree at least until the 1860s.

  • National Capital Authority - Public Submission
    NATIONAL CAPITAL AUTHORITY - PUBLIC SUBMISSION Joint Standing Committee on the National Capital and External Territories Inquiry into provision of amenity within the Parliamentary Triangle The role of the National Capital Authority 1. The National Capital Authority (NCA) manages the Australian Government’s continuing interest in Canberra as the National Capital. 2. The National Capital and Seat of Government is the legislative, judicial, administrative, executive, ceremonial and symbolic centre of the nation. Planning in the Central National Area 3. The Central National Area, which includes the Parliamentary Zone and its setting and the main diplomatic sites and national institutions, is the heart of the National Capital. 4. The NCA has direct responsibility for all aspects of planning and development approval in the Central National Area. 5. The planning system prescribes permitted land uses. Land Management and lease administration 6. Responsibility for land management and lease administration within the Central National Area is shared by the ACT Government, the Department of Finance and Deregulation (DoFD) and the NCA. 7. Each land manager, either directly or via leases they issue, is responsible for the extent to which they constrain, allow or mandate particular land uses from within those permitted under the planning system. 8. Land management decisions cannot be inconsistent with the planning system. 1 The changing nature of the working environment in the Parliamentary Triangle 9. The terms ‘Parliamentary Triangle’ and ‘National Triangle’ formally refer to the areas bounded by Commonwealth, Kings and Constitution Avenues. 10. The Triangle, however named, does not include the areas of Barton and Acton. 11. Given recent community debate about the provision of services and amenities in broader parts of the Central National Area, this submission has been prepared with reference to the Central National Areas of Parkes, Barton, Russell and Acton.

    Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture RSTCA No: R101 Name of Place: Cameron Offices Other/Former Names: Address/Location: Chandler Street BELCONNEN TOWN CENTRE Block Section of Listing Status: Other Heritage Listings: Date of Listing: Level of Significance: Citation Revision No: Category: Citation Revision Date: Style: Date of Design: Designer: Construction Period: Client/Owner/Lessee: Date of Additions: Builder: Statement of Significance The Cameron Offices, located along Chandler Street Belconnen Town Centre, is an example of significant architecture and an educational resource. The office complex is a very good example of the Late Twentieth-Century International Style (1960-) and the Late Twentieth-Century Brutalist Style (1960-). The design incorporates most of the features which are specific to the styles including: Late Twentieth-Century International Style (1960-) cubiform overall shape, structural frame expressed, large sheets of glass, and plain, smooth wall surface. Late Twentieth-Century Brutalist Style (1960-) strong shapes, boldly composed, expressed reinforced-concrete, large areas of blank wall and off-form concrete. The following design features are of additional significance; the precast post tensioned 'T' floor beams with the integration of the lighting and air conditioning, the landscaped courtyards with native Australian plants and water features, the structural system for the office wing's floors where the Gallows beams support the floors by hanging 'columns', the stepped floors at half levels, overhang of the upper floors for shading to the north, Corbusian (ribbon) window motif, assertive cantilever and lengthy expressed reinforced concrete balustrades along the 'Mall'. The office complex is Canberra's, and it appears Australia's, first and possibly only true architectural example of "Structuralism" where buildings are integral and contributing elements of an overall urban order rather than separate and individual elements.

    Illustrating Mobility: Networks of Visual Print Culture and the Periodical Contexts of Modern Australian Writing VICTORIA KUTTAINEN James Cook University The history of periodical illustration offers a rich example of the dynamic web of exchange in which local and globally distributed agents operated in partnership and competition. These relationships form the sort of print network Paul Eggert has characterised as being shaped by everyday exigencies and ‘practical workaday’ strategies to secure readerships and markets (19). In focussing on the history of periodical illustration in Australia, this essay seeks to show the operation of these localised and international links with reference to four case studies from the early twentieth century, to argue that illustrations offer significant but overlooked contexts for understanding the production and consumption of Australian texts.1 The illustration of works published in Australia occurred within a busy print culture that connected local readers to modern innovations and technology through transnational networks of literary and artistic mobility in the years also defined by the rise of cultural nationalism. The nationalist Bulletin (1880–1984) benefited from a newly restricted copyright scene, while also relying on imported technology and overseas talent. Despite attempts to extend the illustrated material of the Bulletin, the Lone Hand (1907–1921) could not keep pace with technologically superior productions arriving from overseas. The most graphically impressive modern Australian magazines, the Home (1920–1942) and the BP Magazine (1928–1942), invested significant energy and capital into placing illustrated Australian stories alongside commercial material and travel content in ways that complicate our understanding of the interwar period. One of the workaday practicalities of the global book trade which most influenced local Australian producers and consumers prior to the twentieth century was the lack of protection for international copyright.
