Document No: D13#419577 2 Axle Bus, Coach and Fire Truck Restricted Bridges 1 APPLICATION The tables in back of this this document provide details of all the restricted bridges that apply to a 2 axle bus or coach operating under the Department of Transport Exemption Notice for 2 axle buses and coaches (RTVSR-2013-00886). It also applies to a fire truck operating under a Department of Transport rear axle group mass exemption, allowing the mass to exceed 9 tonnes, but must not exceed 10 tonnes Do not drive your Bus, Coach or fire truck over any Restricted Bridge listed in the table. 2 HOW TO USE THIS PUBLICATION Structures (Bridges) Location Map Books are available on the Main Roads website at http://www.mainroads.wa.gov.au/UsingRoads/HeavyVehicles. Operators/drivers need to look at the relevant map and establish if there are any bridges along the intended route, and take note of the bridge numbers. Check the list of Restricted Bridges to ensure that none of the bridge numbers on the intended route are listed in this table. If this bridge is listed as a Restricted Bridge in the table, the bridge must not be driven over. The Latitude and Longitude position of each bridge have also been included should you wish to log them in your GPS device as a Point of Interest (POI). 3 ADDITIONAL RESTRICTED BRIDGES A 2 axle bus, coach or fire truck must not be driven over any bridge within the following 3 Shires: Shire of Augusta – Margaret River Shire of Manjimup Shire of Nannup However, a 2 axle bus, coach or fire truck may be driven over a bridge in one of the above 3 Shires if the bridge is on Bussell Hwy, Brockman Hwy, Caves Rd, Pemberton Northcliffe Rd, South Western Hwy, Stewart Rd, Sues Rd, Vasse Hwy or Muir Hwy. 4 AMENDMENTS TO THE RESTRICTED BRIDGE LIST The list is subject to amendments as bridges are re-assessed, which includes bridges being added as a restricted bridge, as well as bridges removed from the Restricted Bridge list. Operators and drivers are responsible for ensuring that they check the current listing of Restricted Bridges, available on the Main Roads website at http://www.mainroads.wa.gov.au/UsingRoads/HeavyVehicles prior to operating the vehicle on the public road network. If amendments are made to the list, they will be made on the first working Monday of the month and will be published on the Main Roads website at this time.

  • Integrated Surface Water and Groundwater Modelling to Support the Murray Drainage and Water Management Plan, South-West Western Australia
    19th International Congress on Modelling and Simulation, Perth, Australia, 12–16 December 2011 http://mssanz.org.au/modsim2011 Integrated surface water and groundwater modelling to support the Murray Drainage and Water Management Plan, south-west Western Australia J. Hall a, B. Marillier a, P. Kretschmer a, B. Quinton a a Water Science Branch, Water Resources Management Division, Department of Water, Western Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract: The Murray region in south-west Western Australia is characterised by a high water-table, sandy soils, wetlands of significance, and an extensive agricultural drainage system to relieve water-logging in winter months. Urban growth pressures in the region have led to the requirement of a Drainage and Water Management Plan (DWMP) to guide future water management. A key component of the DWMP involved the development of a regional surface water and groundwater model to determine groundwater levels and flows under various climate, drainage and development scenarios. The Murray regional model was constructed using the integrated surface water and groundwater model MIKE SHE, and consisted of unsaturated zone, saturated zone, channel flow and overland flow components. It had a constant grid spacing of 200 m, and covered an area of 722 km2. Calibration was from 1985 – 2000 and validation from 2000 – 2009 using 45 groundwater bores and 7 surface water flow gauges. The normalised root mean square error of the calibrated model was 2.02%. Land development, drainage and climate scenarios were simulated and their results are discussed in this paper. The process of model conceptualisation, construction, calibration and simulation is discussed, and provides an appropriate framework for model evaluation and a high level of confidence in modelling results.

    Northam WWTP: Environmental Impact Assessment ● 43 4. ENVIRONMENTAL SURVEY RESULTS 4.1 SITE DESCRIPTIONS AND HABITAT ASSESSMENT Table 4-1 Summarised habitat descriptions for each site Site (representative image) Description Burlong Pool (control site upstream of WWTP) Burlong Pool is an analogue site located 9.5 km upstream of the WWTP discharge and is of similar size and condition to the potential impact site, Katrine Pool. It is one of the 16 priority rehabilitation pools identified by the DoW (2007). Situated between farmland with highly disturbed riparian vegetation consisting of fragments of native vegetation on right bank and predominantly exotic grasses, and good coverage on the left bank. Local grazing. Highly eroded banks in places as a result of vegetation clearing. Limited shading of the channel. Submerged and emergent macrophytes present (~30% of channel). Small amount of woody debris present. Deep channel in parts and heavily vegetated with macrophytes, although noticeably less after February 2017 floods. A small culvert at the road crossing/bridge allows pool formation as the river dries. Report to the Water CoRporation of Western Australia www.hydrobiology.biz Northam WWTP: Environmental Impact Assessment ● 44 Site (representative image) Description Mortlock (Mortlock River upstream WWTP) A control site situated at the edge of Northam township on the Mortlock River, just upstream from the confluence with the Avon River, and assessed for water quality only. The Mortlock River is known to be a significant contributor to nutrient and salt concentrations in the lower Avon River. The site is situated between grazing land and a public recreation/parking area (Enright Park Corroborree Site), with a small cement weir/river walkway presenting a physical barrier to fish passage in some flows.

  • Environmental Guidance for Planning and Development
    Part A Environmental protection and land use planning in Western Australia Environmental Guidance for Part B Biophysical factors Planning and Development Part C Pollution management May 2008 Part D Social surroundings Guidance Statement No. 33 2007389-0508-50 Foreword The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is an independent statutory authority and is the key provider of independent environmental advice to Government. The EPA’s objectives are to protect the environment and to prevent, control and abate pollution and environmental harm. The EPA aims to achieve some of this through the development of environmental protection guidance statements for the environmental impact assessment (EIA) of proposals. This document is one in a series being issued by the EPA to assist proponents, consultants and the public generally to gain additional information about the EPA’s thinking in relation to aspects of the EIA process. The series provides the basis for EPA’s evaluation of, and advice on, proposals under S38 and S48A of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act) subject to EIA. The guidance statements are one part of assisting proponents, decision-making authorities and others in achieving environmentally acceptable outcomes. Consistent with the notion of continuous environmental improvement and adaptive environmental management, the EPA expects proponents to take all reasonable and practicable measures to protect the environment and to view the requirements of this Guidance as representing the minimum standards necessary. The main purposes of this EPA guidance statement are: • to provide information and advice to assist participants in land use planning and development processes to protect, conserve and enhance the environment • to describe the processes the EPA may apply under the EP Act to land use planning and development in Western Australia, and in particular to describe the environmental impact assessment (EIA) process applied by the EPA to schemes.

  • Avon Valley National Park Flora and Fauna Guide
    Parks of the Perth Hills Avon Valley The place to… Be… National Park See… Flora and Fauna Guide Do… Landscape The sides of the Avon Valley slope steeply down to the plateau, which is about 200m above the river level. The area is undulating, with soil types including lateritic sands, loams and gravels, and is partly within the Red Swamp Brook and Brockman River catchments. The river valley forms the division between the drier northern forest, dominated by wandoo, and the southern forest, dominated by jarrah Plants The park contains wandoo woodlands and jarrah more typical of the drier northern and eastern Darling plateau. Fuschia grevillea (Grevillea bipinnatifida), roadside tea-trees, coneflowers, balgas and zamias are common elements of the understorey, which is generally sparse. The park also contains the Fringed Lily (Thysanotus anceps), a rare species found only in a few localities in the Darling Range north-east of Perth. Along the river are large flooded gums. Granite outcrops add to the diversity of the park. A variety of low shrubs and small lichens and mosses cling to the rocks. WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT WA’S PLANTS AND ANIMALS? The Department of Environment and Conservation have a series of pocket sized field guides available called “Bush Books’. They are available at most DEC offices and good bookshops. Titles include; Bush Tucker Plants of the South-West Common Trees of the South-West Forests Common Wildflowers of the South-West Forests Fungi of the South-West Forests Orchids of the South-West Australian Birds of Prey Bugs in the Backyard Common Birds of the Backyard Common Birds of the South West Forests Frogs of Western Australia Mammals of the South West Snakes of Western Australia Threatened and Rare Birds of Western Australia Waterbirds of South West Wetlands Fauna Echidnas are common in all habitats within the park.
