The name of the proposed project and its location Project title: St Patricks Plains Wind Farm Project location: St Patricks Plains, Central Highlands, Tasmania The project site will be entirely located on private land, with included PIDs and Titles listed in Appendix A. For clarity, the area of land managed by Sustainable Timber Tasmania located within the site boundary is excluded from the proposal area. 3. Background of the project proponent, including details of the proponent's experience and financial capacity to undertake the project and his, her or its contact details Proponent: Epuron Projects Pty Ltd ABN: 84 150 163 143 Address: Level 11, 75 Miller Street, North Sydney, NSW 2060 Epuron Projects Pty Ltd (Epuron), part of the Epuron Group, is a leading private Australian renewable energy company with a focus on green-field development of utility-scale wind and solar energy projects. Established in 2003, Epuron has been the pre-eminent wind farm developer in NSW and is one of the most experienced renewable energy developers in the Australian market. Four Epuron developed wind farms are in operation and a further three wind farms are in pre- construction. Epuron developed, owns and operates solar farms at Alice Springs, Ayers Rock Resort and at three remote communities in the NT and one large scale Solar Farm in QLD is in operation and one in NSW is in construction. In Tasmania, Epuron is currently proceeding through the statutory approvals process to develop a wind farm north of Stanley (Western Plains Wind Farm) and has two solar farms approved in the north of the State. 4. A description of the proposed project including its key physical components The proposed St Patricks Plains Wind Farm (the project) is located in central Tasmania, in the Central Highlands. The project is proposed to have up to 67 turbines, with each turbine’s generating capacity between 3.6 and 6.2 MW, subject to available technology at the time of turbine procurement. The maximum generating capacity will be up to 300 MW. Wind monitoring began on site in 2012 when WestWind Energy installed a 60 m monitoring mast. This mast and the associated data were acquired by Epuron in 2017. Epuron has recently received a development permit from Central Highlands Council to erect a 120 m high mast to ref: HB19146H001 NOI 31P Rev 02/KL/cy Page 4 monitor wind data at a second location on the project site. The mast is expected to be installed by July 2019. The preliminary details of the turbines and associated specifications are outlined below in Table 1. These specifications may change during the design process. Table 1: Wind turbine specifications Tower height 150 m Proposed blade length 90 m Max total height to blade tip 240 m Ground Clearance 60 m Hardstand dimensions 40 m x 120 m Generating capacity 3.6 - 6.2 MW Each turbine will connect to the substation via a network of underground cables. However, the distance between the northern and southern clusters of turbines may necessitate some overhead powerline(s). All power will be directed to the on-site Palmerston to Waddamana TasNetworks-owned powerlines via a new switchyard to be developed on site. The switchyard will have a footprint of approximately 40,000 m2 (4 ha). The electricity generated from the proposed wind farm will allow hydro generators to ramp down during windy periods. The project will also include: • A permanent Operations and Maintenance Building and storage area • A number of permanent wind monitoring masts • A temporary construction compound with site buildings (toilets, office etc.), laydown areas, car park • New tracks/roads with all-weather surfacing, 6-12 m wide, with approximately 78 km of road network required. This includes 38 km of new track and the upgrade to 40km of existing tracks. • Temporary concrete batching plants for foundation construction. Road construction material will likely be sourced from a number of local quarries. Epuron is in discussion with the owners of a potential source of material who is currently supplying the Cattle Hill Wind Farm development. Subject to material availability, other sources may be required, with preference given to quarrying opportunities within the project area. Sewage will be generated during the construction and operation phases, all of which will be contained in temporary facilities and removed from site. All putrescible and construction waste will be removed from site to appropriately licensed facilities. Subject to the results of the ecology surveys, any required vehicle washdown facilities will be installed, as appropriate, to minimise the spread of environmental weeds and pathogens. 5. An outline of the proposed location of the project and a general site location map. The proposed project is located in the Steppes area in the Central Highlands of Tasmania, which extends from St Patricks Plains in the north 10 km south east of Miena and Great Lake, to Bakers Tier in the south, around 28 km north of Bothwell. The proposed wind farm area covers approximately 10,000 ha, covering a north to south distance of 20 km from St Patricks Plains through

  • A History of Drought, Fire and Flood in Tasmania from European Settlement in 1803 to the 1960S
    ‘Antipodean England’? A History of Drought, Fire and Flood in Tasmania from European Settlement in 1803 to the 1960s. by Kathryn Evans BA (University of Tasmania) MA Public History (Monash University) A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the School of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Tasmania (January 2012). Declaration This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. Signed Kathryn Evans Date This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. 2 Abstract The influence of climatic variability on the European history of Tasmania has largely been neglected as a field of study. It is demonstrated here that severe weather events, such as drought, floods, storms, extreme cold and bushfires, have had a significant impact on that history. Drought affected farming operations, town water supplies, mining and industry, and later hydro-electric power generation. Floods and storms disrupted transport and communication networks and damaged property in towns and in the country. Bushfires also periodically wrought widespread property damage. An environmental history approach is employed to explore the dominant images and perceptions of Tasmania‟s climate, the impacts of severe weather events on the population, the responses made to them, and how these changed over time from 1803 to the 1960s.

  • Threatened Fishes Committee Report - May 2001
    Threatened Fishes Committee Report - May 2001 By David Crook As promised in the last newsletter, a provisional list of threatened Australian fishes using the IUCN classification scheme has been prepared and is presented below. Due to the new listing of many marine threatened species, the number of listed species has dramatically increased from 91 to 210. This increase in numbers provides significant challenges for the committee in terms of keeping the list up to date, and increases the need for input from Society members with specialist knowledge of particular taxa. It is simply not possible for the committee members to keep fully up-to-date with the status of all 210 species. The classifications for freshwater fish in the provisional list are based upon assessments conducted by Peter Jackson and Rob Wager in 1996. The conservation status of several of these species has been updated since then through the Threatened Fish Committee’s nomination process. The classifications for the marine and estuarine species are based upon the recommendations made in the draft “Conservation Overview and Action Plan for Australian Threatened and Potentially Threatened Marine and Estuarine Fishes” prepared by John Pogonoski, John Paxton and Dave Pollard. The provisional list is presented here to allow ASFB members an opportunity to raise any issues of concern prior to the list going before the committee for adoption at the annual conference in Perth. Please take the time to go through the list so that any mistakes, misclassifications or opinions regarding the list are brought to the committee’s attention. Any changes to the provisional classifications will need to go through the normal nomination process (nomination forms are available from me on request).

  • Aspects of the Phylogeny, Biogeography and Taxonomy of Galaxioid Fishes
    Aspects of the phylogeny, biogeography and taxonomy of galaxioid fishes Jonathan Michael Waters, BSc. (Hons.) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, / 2- Oo ( 01 f University of Tasmania (August, 1996) Paragalaxias dissim1/is (Regan); illustrated by David Crook Statements I declare that this thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any tertiary institution and, to the best of my knowledge and belief, this thesis contains no material previously published o:r written by another person, except where due reference is made in the text. This thesis is not to be made available for loan or copying for two years following the date this statement is signed. Following that time the thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Signed Summary This study used two distinct methods to infer phylogenetic relationships of members of the Galaxioidea. The first approach involved direct sequencing of mitochondrial DNA to produce a molecular phylogeny. Secondly, a thorough osteological study of the galaxiines was the basis of a cladistic analysis to produce a morphological phylogeny. Phylogenetic analysis of 303 base pairs of mitochondrial cytochrome b _supported the monophyly of Neochanna, Paragalaxias and Galaxiella. This gene also reinforced recognised groups such as Galaxias truttaceus-G. auratus and G. fasciatus-G. argenteus. In a previously unrecognised grouping, Galaxias olidus and G. parvus were united as a sister clade to Paragalaxias. In addition, Nesogalaxias neocaledonicus and G. paucispondylus were included in a clade containing G.
