  • 2016-2017 Native Fish Stocking Plan for Dams and Lakes
    2016/2017 NATIVE FISH STOCKING PLAN FOR DAMS AND LAKES There are many impoundments and reservoirs suitable for native fish stocking throughout NSW and over the last two decades a large number of excellent recreational fisheries have been established. To ensure that the best use continues to be made of publicly funded fish stocking programs, Department of Primary Industries (DPI) is seeking input from people who have an interest in the State’s stocked native freshwater fisheries. The attached draft native fish stocking plan has been prepared for consideration by the recreational fishing community. Fish are stocked from Government hatcheries as a service to the anglers of NSW. Locations are selected based on recent stocking history and experience with those waters. The plan is also developed in accordance with the policies and guidelines set out in the Environmental Impact Statement and Fishery Management Strategy (FMS) on freshwater fish stocking in NSW. The water quality and storage status of impoundments will also be assessed prior to stocking and where necessary changes will be made. Please note: Planned fish release figures listed in the attached tables are targets only, and may be exceeded, or not attained, depending on hatchery production. Other seasonal factors such as water quality issues or unforeseen circumstances could preclude planned fish releases. As a result, allocations may be amended prior to release. Impoundments are listed as Priority 1 or 2. Priority 1 impoundments support large recreational fisheries or have not received stockings in recent years. Priority 2 impoundments are either smaller fisheries, suffer intermittent water quality issues or have recently received large stockings of that species.

  • Kirribilli House Bathing Pool and Early Harbourside Pools in Sydney

Unl.eratt7 or B7dne7 2006 ISSN 0819-4076. Telephone (02) 6i2 2163 Winter, 1987 Number 2 KIRRIBILLI HOUSE BATHING POOL AND EARLY HARBOURS IDE POOLS IN SYDNEY :A BRIEF SURVEY Grace Karskens Introduction I was commissioned in 1986 to assess the cultural signifi­ cance of the stone harbourside pool at Kirribilli House, Kirribilli, N.S.W .• The pool was presumably built by merchant Adolph Feez, of Rabonne Feez and Co., who purchased a portion of the adjoining Wotonga (now Admiralty House) in 1854, and built the twin gabled house on it in ~he following year. To make this assessment it was necessary first to ascertain the popularity of recreational bathing' during the 1850s, and hence the likely number of private bathing pools built; and second to determine the present-day survival of such pools. Historical Outline A brief overview of the history of nineteenth-century bathing indicates four stages in the growth of this past-timers popularity: Stage 1: During the early period (1788-c1820) bathing for recreation occurred informally - convicts and ordinary settlers bathed in the sea and the rivers. Stage 2: From c1825-1850 bathing for ordinary people was formalised by the establishment of pUblic baths in the Domain in Woolloomooloo Bay by order of Governor Darling in 1829. 2. Bathers also swam in Darling Harbour. By 1853 the Surveyor General's map of Sydney Harbour shows four public baths in Woolloomooloo Bay, as well as the Governor's Bath House (see M.L.

    Federation Faces and Introduction A guided walk around the streets and laneways Places of North Sydney focusing on our Federation connections, including the former residences of A walking tour of Federation Sir Joseph Palmer Abbott, Sir Edmund Barton faces and places in North and Dugald Thomson. Along the walk, view the Sydney changes in the North Sydney landscape since th Federation and the turn of the 20 century. Distance: 6 Km Approximate time: 4 hours At the turn of the year 1900 to 1901 the city of Grading: medium to high Sydney went mad with joy. For a few days hope ran so high that poets and prophets declared Australia to be on the threshold of a golden age… from early morning on the first of January 1901 trams, trains and ferry boats carried thousands of people into the city for the greatest day of their history: the inauguration of the Commonwealth of Australia. It was to be a people‟s festival. Manning Clark, Historian It was also a people‟s movement and 1901 was the culmination of many years of discussions, community activism, heated public debates, vibrant speeches and consolidated actions. In 1890 the Australasian Federal Conference was held in Melbourne and the following year in Sydney. In 1893 a meeting of the various federation groups, including the Australian Native Association was held at Corowa. A plan was developed for the election of delegates to a convention. In the mid to late 1890s it was very much a peoples‟ movement gathering groundswell support. In 1896 a People‟s Convention with 220 delegates and invited guests from all of the colonies took place at Bathurst - an important link in the Federation chain.

  • Chapter Xi1 Australia Doubles the A.I.F
    CHAPTER XI1 AUSTRALIA DOUBLES THE A.I.F. THEAustralians and New Zealanders who returned from Gallipoli to Egypt were a different force from the adven- turous body that had left Egypt eight months before. They were a military force with strongly established, definite traditions. Not for anything, if he could avoid it, would an Australian now change his loose, faded tu& or battered hat for the smartest cloth or headgear of any other army. Men clung to their Australian uniforms till they were tattered to the limit of decency. Each of the regimental numbers which eight months before had been merely numbers, now carried a poignant meaning for every man serving with the A.I.F., and to some extent even for the nation far away in Australia. The ist, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Infantry Battalions-they had rushed Lone Pine; the 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th had made that swift advance at Helles; the gth, ioth, I ith, 12th had stormed the Anzac heights; the igth, iqth, igth, 16th had first held Quinn’s, Courtney’s and Pope’s; the battalion numbers of the 2nd Division were becoming equally famous-and so with the light horse, artillery, engineers, field ambulances, transport companies, and casualty clearing stations. Service on the Gallipoli beaches had given a fighting record even to British, Egyptian and Maltese labour units that normally would have served far behind the front. The troops from Gallipoli were urgently desired by Kitchener for the defence of Egypt against the Turkish expedition that threatened to descend on it as soon as the Allies’ evacuation had released the Turkish army ANZAC TO AMIENS [Dec.
