  • A Brief History of the Mount Keira Tramline
    84 NOV /DEC 2000 lllawarra Historical Society Inc. A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE MOUNT KEIRA TRAMLINE 1839 The Rev W B Clarke, who was a qualified geologist, recorded a finding of coal at Mount Keira. 1848 James Shoobert, a retired sea captain and land-owner, drove a tunnel in what is now known as the No. 3 seam. He then observed an outcrop of the No. 2 (4-ft) seam about 21 metres above it, in which the coal was of better quality. 1849 Shoobert then opened a tunnel in the 4-ft seam, which seems to have been on the north side of Para Creek. A track was then cut through the bush to the Mount Keira Road where a depot was established about 400 metres west of the crossroads forming the junction with the main south road. The track and the crossroads both appear on Plan A (page 85), an 1855 proposal to supply Wollongong with water. The first load of coal was taken from this depot to Wollongong Harbour, with much fanfare, on August 27. The coal was delivered from the mine to the depot by bullock drays and dumped there. It was then loaded onto horse-drawn drays and taken to the harbour, where it was bagged and carried on board the waiting vessel, the paddle steamer William the Fourth, and tipped into its hold. [Sydney Morning Herald 10.09.1849) Plan B (page 87) is a line diagram showing the position ofShoobert's road in relation to later developments. 1850 A second tunnel was opened in the 4-ft seam.

Core outcomes/issues for the half Sales revenue of $4,622M for 1H FY2011, up $519M compared to 1H FY2010, was primarily due to higher international and domestic selling prices partly offset by a higher average AUD:USD exchange rate for 1H 2011 of 0.945 (vs. 0.872). Reported NLAT of $55M for 1H FY2011, $27M worse off than the 1H FY2010, was mainly due to net impairment write down of $9M and one-off tax benefits in the previous comparative period. In accordance with accounting standards the net impairment write-down comprised a write-down of goodwill in BlueScope Distribution business of $77M due to the recent poor financial performance and uncertain medium term outlook.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] The Illawarra Escarpment Abstract The llIawarra escarpment is one of the most striking features of the N.S.W. coast, for it runs like a great unbreached wall for some 120km, and dominates the narrow plains below. Vet little hes been written about it, and some of the brief commentaries that have appeared are incorrect. This account outlines the major feature. of the escarpment, its origins, and also the hazards of land slip encountered on its slopes. Publication Details This report was originally published as Young, RW, The Illawarra Escarpment, Wollongong Studies in Geography No.2, Department of Geography, University of Wollongong, 1980, 4p. This report is available at Research Online: https://ro.uow.edu.au/wollgeo/2 Some parts of the escarpment have been worn back much farther from the coast than have others. At first sight this seems, as Griffith Taylor (1923) argued, to be simply a matter of the differential resistance to erosion of the varied rocks exposed along the escarpment.

  • Ministerial Media Release
    Melinda Pavey Minister for Water, Property & Housing MEDIA RELEASE Wednesday, 20 May, 2020 RECYCLED WATER A WIN-WIN FOR STEEL INDUSTRY AND COMMUNITY IN 10-YEAR DEAL The future of steel manufacturing in Australia has received a welcome boost with a new 10- year water supply contract between Sydney Water and BlueScope Steel helping secure jobs in the Illawarra while protecting the local water supply. Sydney Water will supply up to 20 megalitres of recycled water daily from the Wollongong Water Recycling Plant to BlueScope’s Port Kembla Steelworks Minister for Water, Property and Housing Melinda Pavey says the manufacturing industry is part of the backbone of the Illawarra economy and this Government is proud to do all we can to support it. “This agreement not only supports local jobs it also helps safeguard our valuable water supply. To put that in context, 20 megalitres a day represents 20 per cent of the daily demand on Avon Dam, which is the main water supply for Wollongong and the Illawarra,” Mrs Pavey said. “That means we’re significantly reducing demand on the local water supply, ensuring we’ve got a resilient water network to support us now and into the future.” Sydney Water Managing Director Roch Cheroux says, “Sydney Water supplied its first drop of recycled water to BlueScope back in 2006 and has continued to deliver the critical resource ever since. “The new contract ensures we can continue to deliver a sustainable and affordable water supply for a further 10 years, helping create world-class steel products right here in our own backyard, keeping this valuable industry sustainable for the future.” “Over the next two decades, Sydney Water plans to double the amount of recycled water we can produce to support businesses like BlueScope well into the future and we encourage businesses to look at the benefits of using recycled water BlueScope’s Chief Executive, Australian Steel Products, John Nowlan says they were proud to extend their partnership with Sydney Water for another decade.
