Gold Creek Dam and its Unusual Waste Waterway (1890-1997) : Design, Operation, Maintenance Hubert Chanson Senior Lecturer, Department of Civil Engineering, and R.L. Whitmore Emeritus Professor, The University of Queensland, Brisbane QLD 4072, Australia. Fax : (61 7) 33 65 45 99 Email : [email protected] Abstract : Completed in 1885, the Gold Creek dam is an earthen dam located on the outskirts of Brisbane, Australia. The spillway system was refurbished three times, each time to increase the maximum overflow capacity. In 1890, a concrete stepped waterway was built to replace the damaged unlined-rock channel. This staircase chute is an unique structure : it is the first large man-made waste waterway built in Queensland, it is the only stepped weir built in Queensland before 1900, and it is, so far as the writers are aware, the first concrete-stepped spillway built for a large dam. The characteristics of the dam and its unusual stepped spillway are reviewed in a historical context. The design is compared with contemporary structures and present knowledge in stepped spillway design. The authors believe that the Queensland engineers gained expertise from overseas and within Australia for the stepped spillway design. However the selection of concrete for the step construction was made by the local engineers and the reasons behind the decision are not yet understood.

  • Changes in the Freshwater Environments of the Australian Lungfish, Neoceratodus Forsteri, in South-East Queensland, and Implications for the Survival of the Species
    CHANGES IN THE FRESHWATER ENVIRONMENTS OF THE AUSTRALIAN LUNGFISH, NEOCERATODUS FORSTERI, IN SOUTH-EAST QUEENSLAND, AND IMPLICATIONS FOR THE SURVIVAL OF THE SPECIES K E M P, A. 1 This paper assembles evidence collected over several decades to conclude that populations of the Australian lungfish in south-east Queensland are not reproducing sufficiently to guarantee survival of the species in the region. The environment of the Australian lungfish Neoceratodus( forsteri) has been altered over the past 50 years. Biodiversity of plants and animals has been lost. Water impoundments without effective fish transfer devices have been built over rivers. Submerged aquatic plants used by lungfish as spawning sites and refuges for the young have been significantly reduced in numbers, and food animals are absent or much less common. Lungfish used to spawn in a number of habitats in rivers and lakes in natural and translocated environments in south-east Queensland, in response to increasing photoperiod in spring. Oviposition events were cyclical, rising from low levels to a peak in successive years and then falling again. High levels of recruitment have, in the past, followed high levels of spawning activity, but recruitment depends on other factors as well. It should be noted that, while the sole trigger for spawning is photoperiod, many factors influence recruitment, such as food availability, refuges for young fish and the effects of predation, as well as the amount and type of food gathered by adult lungfish prior to the spawning season, and whether adults have been able to supply the eggs with appropriate nutrients. Spawning, and the survival of young, are now affected by environmental degradation, with extensive loss of biodiversity in freshwater environments where lungfish live.
