2Protecting Our Rivers and Aquifers
1 The Strategy at a Regional Level Chapter Two 2 Protecting our Rivers and Aquifers This chapter outlines the Government’s action plan to protect and improve the health of rivers, estuaries and aquifers. The initiatives apply to the whole Central Region. Local actions are outlined in Chapter 4. In protecting and improving the health of the region’s rivers, it is essential to: • preserve the environment’s existing share of water • use this existing water for the environment more efficiently • increase the amount of water for the environment where it is not sufficient • undertake complementary works (such as revegetation of the streamside zone) to maximise the river health benefits of increasing environmental flows • manage the impacts of low inflows and climate change. Protecting our rivers The Government is committed to improving the health of Victoria’s There are many Aboriginal and other sites of significance associated rivers, floodplains and estuaries. These natural assets support with rivers and creeks. Aboriginal people have a strong social, cultural industry, tourism and recreation, and are highly valued by people and spiritual connection to the land and water. This Strategy, together who live and work around them. with the Regional River Health Strategies, will assist in ensuring that Protecting the health of our rivers ensures that the drinking rich Aboriginal heritage values will be protected and interpreted to water we extract from them is of a high quality. allow others to understand the Aboriginal communities’ significant cultural connection between land and water. The Regional River Rivers are also highly significant ecosystems in their own right. -
Growing Pains: the Western Water Story
Growing Pains: The Western Water Story Tim Hatt (Western Water) Heath Miles (Western Water) Dan Stevens (Beca) The Western Water Service Area Less than twenty years ago Western Water supplied a number of outer suburban and small towns through a combination of conventional surface and groundwater sources. One of the fastest growing regions in Australia Today Western Water provides water, recycled water and sewerage services to: • Approx. 66,000 properties • a population of 153,358 • an area of 3,000 km2 Over the next twenty years the population set to treble. (Victoria in the Future, 2016) A changing landscape In 2018 Western Water granted connection compliance certificates at a rate of 1,000 per month Impact of the Millennium Drought Rosslynne Reservoir The millennium drought placed a significant strain on supplies, requiring: • bulk supply from Melbourne Water, • development of recycled water plants and a non-potable transfer network, • investment in a more inter-connected potable water transfer network.

Moorabool Shire Council Submission to the PADR
Niluksha Herath 26 June, 2019 Manager Western Victorian Renewable Integration RIT-T Australian Energy Market Operator Via electronic lodgement File: 13/03/010 [email protected] Dear Niluksha, MOORABOOBL SHIRE COUNCIL SUBMISSION - WESTERN VICTORIAN RENEWABLE INTEGRATION PROJECT ASSESSMENT DRAFT REPORT Introduction Moorabool Shire Council (the Shire) welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission in response to the Western Victoria Renewable Integration Project Assessment Draft Report (PADR). We thank the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) for their recent briefing and the opportunity to provide this submission. The Shire recognises the importance of this significant renewable energy infrastructure project and applauds AEMO for commencing a project that has the potential to provide significant community benefit including increased employment opportunities, not just for Moorabool Shire residents but more broadly across Western Victoria. The Shire is generally supportive of renewable energy, which is evidenced through the substantial number of wind farms that are both operational and under construction within the municipality. However, the Shire is also mindful of achieving a balanced outcome where the amenity of the Shire is not unreasonably compromised by the visual intrusion that such infrastructure projects can have on the landscape and angst this causes within the community. As per our recent briefing from AEMO, it is understood that there is currently insufficient capacity within the existing transmission infrastructure to enable the amount of proposed renewable energy generation in Western Victoria. As a result, AEMO is undertaking a Regulatory Investment Test for Transmission (RIT-T) to assess the viability of increasing transmission network capacity in the Western Victoria region, to facilitate the efficient connection and operation of new and existing generation in the region. -
