The Peel-Yalgorup System stretches over 60 km from north to south and approximately 10 km east to west. The Peel-Yalgorup System was designated as a wetland of international importance in 1990, when it was added to the Ramsar List under the International Convention on Wetlands (or Ramsar Convention). Article 2.2 of the Ramsar Convention states “Wetlands should be selected for the List on account of their international significance in terms of ecology, botany, zoology, limnology or hydrology. In the first instance, wetlands of international importance to waterfowl at any season should be included”. Sites are identified by reference to a list of nine criteria. The Peel-Yalgorup System currently meets seven of the nine criteria (see Table 4). The Peel-Yalgorup System wetlands are considered to be representative of wetlands of the Swan Coastal Plain. They form a chain of diverse habitat types, which in turn support an array of ecologically important species and communities (DEC, 2002). Although each wetland ‘sub-system’ (the estuary, freshwater wetlands and saline lakes) qualifies as an ‘internationally important’ wetland (Hale and Butcher 2007) the wetlands were together nominated as the ‘Peel-Yalgorup System’ under the International Convention on Wetlands in recognition of their combined values as a diverse wetland complex. The 26,530 ha System forms part of the Swan Coastal Plain Bioregion, located in the south-west of Western Australia (Figure 1). The Swan Coastal Plain Bioregion is included within the Southwest Australia biodiversity hotspot: recognised by Conservation International as one of 34 of the world’s richest and most threatened

  • City of Rockingham – August 2019 Submission
    Submission - Select Committee Inquiry into Local Government City of Rockingham – August 2019 The City of Rockingham welcomes the opportunity to make a submission to the State Government’s Select Committee Inquiry into Local Government. The City is aware that the Select Committee will have received submissions from the Western Australian Local Government Association and the Growth Areas Alliance Perth and Peel, and these are both comprehensive. The City wishes to draw the Select Committee’s attention to specific issues that are relevant to Rockingham and its community. Background City of Rockingham is a local government with a rapidly developing residential area, supplemented by industrial and commercial areas, and a naval facility on Garden Island. The City encompasses a total land area of approximately 260 square kilometres, including significant areas of coastline and parkland. As with other outer metropolitan growth local governments, Rockingham has and continues to experience substantial population growth, with the resident population growing 22% between 2011 (109,415) and 2018 (133,389). Rockingham is the 5th largest local government in Western Australia based on population, and the 4th fastest growing by actual annual population growth numbers (2018). Based on current .ID forecast projections, the City of Rockingham’s population is set to grow to 192,805 by 2036. The WAPC South Metropolitan Peel Sub-Regional Planning Framework projects the City’s population to reach 235,000 by 2050. Critical issues – Development and population growth The State Government, through the Western Australian Planning Commission, controls the macro approach to development in the metropolitan area. The drive for higher density development and affordable housing has created a landscape of large homes on small lots, with very little yard space for traditional family recreation.

The proposal extends from the southern most portion of the proposed Kwinana Freeway at Stock Road, Lakelands (near Mandurah) south to where it intersects Old Coast Road approximately 2.5 km north of Johnston Road. Section 44 of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 requires the EPA to report to the Minister for the Environment on the environmental factors relevant to the proposal and on the conditions and procedures to which the proposal should be subject, if implemented. In addition, the EPA may make recommendations as it considers necessary. Relevant environmental factors Although a number of environmental factors were considered by the EPA in the assessment, it is the EPA’s opinion that the following are the environmental factors relevant to the proposal, which require detailed evaluation in the report: • Vegetation Communities • Declared Rare and Priority Flora • Wetlands • Traffic Noise Conclusion The EPA has considered the proposal by MRWA to construct an inter-regional road on the eastern side of the Peel-Harvey Estuary to bypass Mandurah and the comments raised by government agencies and public submissions.

If you have trouble reading this document and would like us to share the information with you in another way, please call Infrastructure WA on 08 6552 5229. Acknowledgment of Country Infrastructure WA acknowledges the traditional custodians throughout Western Australia and their continuing connection to the land, waters and community. We pay our respects to all members of the Aboriginal communities and their cultures – and to Elders both past and present. Within Western Australia, the term Aboriginal is used in preference to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander, in recognition that Aboriginal people are the original inhabitants of Western Australia. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander may be referred to in the national context. 2 Infrastructure WA Introduction In developing Western Australia’s first 20-year State Infrastructure Strategy (Strategy), the role and needs of the regions are critically important. To assist in understanding each region, the following profiles have been developed, which should be read in conjunction with A Stronger Tomorrow, State Infrastructure Strategy Discussion Paper. These profiles provide high level summary information and are not intended to be a comprehensive overview of each region. Key challenges and opportunities have been identified, based on Infrastructure WA’s initial consideration and feedback from engagement with many regional stakeholders.
