In 2002 the Department of Environment (now Department of Water), in conjunction with Local and State Government Agencies undertook a study into the development of an ‘Economic Development and Recreation Management Plan for the Peel Waterways’. Recommendation 6.2 of that plan was to ‘prepare and implement a detailed rehabilitation scheme for the Murray River’(Everall Consulting Biologist, 2002). In 2003 the ‘Lower Murray River Action Plan’ was produced by the Department of Environment, through the Ribbons of Blue project. Following the development of the 2003 Plan a number of restoration and rehabilitation works were carried out along the Lower Murray River. Now in 2014, the Plan has been reviewed and updated by the Peel- The 2014 survey of the Lower Murray also provides Harvey Catchment Council, through funding from the opportunity to observe previous restoration and the Australian Government. rehabilitation works undertaken over the past decade. The Plan identifies issues, threats and actions The previous methods used can be examined and needed to address priority areas along the river. It reviewed to see what has been successful and what concentrates on riparian rehabilitation rather than has not. This will provide a good understanding and in-stream rehabilitation works. This is not to say that basis for future onground works. in-stream works are not required, rather they require The 2014 survey revealed that the majority of further investigation, including modelling prior to restoration and rehabilitation works that have been planning and implementation. carried out (excluding the Delta Islands), has shown The Plan focuses on the Delta Islands to the Pinjarra some improvement.

General observations show that weeds are still a significant problem. The lack of ‘dense stands’ of overstorey along the river foreshores also continue to be a significant risk to the stability of the river banks. 3 |page Lower Murray River Action Plan Recommendations 1. Implement management strategies in consultation with local Aboriginal Elders and 2003 Department of Aboriginal Affairs. 2. Implement a community consultation and communication strategy to inform local landowners on issues relating to river and riparian health, new clearing controls, disturbance of bed and banks etc. - Raise awareness on river health in the local community. Distribute information on new legislation protecting the river environment and what individuals can do to minimise their impact. 3. Identify flood risk zones. 2014 4. Liaise with relevant agencies through the TPS to determine requirements for new developments to provide better management of storm water drainage and road run off

About 80 per cent of the adult colonists to the Swan River were described by authorities as belonging to labouring and trade occupations.2 These might be called the servant or working classes, and are hereafter simply referred to in this paper as the servant class.

Full name of Degree: Bachelor of Arts with Honours in History Thesis Title The Interpreter: The Legacy of Francis Fraser Armstrong Author: Alan James Thompson Year 2015 § 3 Abstract This thesis argues that Francis Fraser Armstrong, a young immigrant from Scotland in the earliest years of the colony of Western Australia, was valued not only as an interpreter between the British settlers and the Noongar Aboriginal people, but also as an asset to be exploited by various conflicting factions within both Aboriginal and his own settler society. Dissent within the colonial leadership sabotaged Armstrong’s formerly strong relationship with the Noongar community by rejecting a proposal forwarded by him for what might have been the first land rights agreement negotiated in Australia.

  • Indicators of Regional Development in Western Australia
    Indicators of Regional Development in Western Australia Prepared by URS Australia Pty Ltd for the Department of Local Government and Regional Development Indicators of Regional Development in WA Page 2 Indicators of Regional Development in WA Foreword The Indicators of Regional Development in WA report has been prepared for the State Government to provide a comprehensive overview of what is happening in regional Western Australia. The report was prepared by consultants URS Australia, under the leadership and direction of the Department of Local Government and Regional Development. Over 100 indicators have been assembled and analysed, covering the three main areas of regional development: economic, social and environmental. The indicators were selected in consultation with each of the nine regions, particularly through the Regional Development Commissions. Much of the information has not been available before in a public document, at least not in the form presented. This fact, together with the sheer breadth and depth of information presented, Page 3 makes this a unique document which will be of interest and importance to residents and organisations throughout the State for years to come. The report will inform regional communities about their region, and how they compare with other parts of the State, particularly Perth. Metropolitan communities will be better informed about regional areas of the State. Individual indicators generally compare the performance of regions with Perth, wherever this is possible. This benchmarking of regions’ status against Perth will be of great assistance to Government in developing policy and making resource allocation decisions. There are many sectors of the report which tell a positive story about the performance of regions compared to Perth.

  • Teacher Information
    Western Australian Museum Teacher Information A Trek Through Time-some useful footsteps to guide you! Thanks for making the time to undertake A Trek Through Time, a self-guided walking trail between the Western Australian Museum - Shipwreck Galleries and the Western Australian Maritime Museum in Fremantle. The trail is designed for use with groups of 3-5 students each with its own adult guide (aka an adult helper). It takes 25-40 minutes to complete depending on how much time you spend at each stop along the way. The content is particularly relevant for students in Years 5 and 6. However, with a high level of adult support it can also be used with students from Year 3 and extended through to high school students (adequately supervised by an adult). Prior to your visit Print copies of the trail to create a booklet using the following properties (a test run is recommended) : • A4 size, double sided, landscape format • Check rotation/ ‘left bind’ of pages to ensure all pages are up the same way • Colour if possible, to enable easy comparison between old and recent photos • 2-3 staples down the left hand side to enable viewing of page spreads Provide adult guide with a copy of the trail enabling them to familiarise themselves prior to guiding the students along the journey. Ensure that both adults and students are aware of the need to remain safe, especially in locations where crossing the road is required. While on the trail Remind students of the need to walk in an orderly manner. Avoid congestion by staggering the start time of groups by 2-3 minutes so that students are not all crowded in the one place.
