What is a 100 Year ARI flood? The 100 year ARI flood has been generally adopted in Australia and overseas as the basis for floodplain management planning. The 100 year ARI flood has a 1% chance of occurring in any one year and a 50% chance of being experienced at least once in a person's life time. Larger floods will occur but, on average, will be less frequent. Floodplain Mapping and Floodplain Development Strategies The Department of Water in carrying out its role in floodplain management provides advice and recommends guidelines for development on floodplains with the object of minimising flood risk and damage. The following guiding principles ensure proposed development in flood prone areas is acceptable with regard to major flooding: - Proposed development has adequate flood protection from a 100 year ARI flood; and - Proposed development does not detrimentally impact on the existing 100 year ARI flooding regime of the general area. 100 year ARI floodplain mapping for the watercourses in the Perth Metropolitan area includes the Swan River and its major tributaries between Fremantle and the Hills. The tributaries include the Ellen Brook, Helena River, Bennett Brook, Blackadder Creek, Jane Brook, St Leonards Creek, Susannah Brook, Henley Brook, Ellen Brook, Canning River and Southern River / Wungong Brook. Outside of the Perth Metropolitan area, the Department of Water has floodplain mapping for a number of major rivers through population centres, including : - Blackwood River (Bridgetown, Boyup Brook, Nannup, Augusta) - Preston River (Donnybrook, Bunbury) - Collie River (Collie, Australind/Eaton) - Murray River (Pinjarra to Peel Estuary) - Serpentine River (South West Highway to Peel Estuary) - Hotham River (Boddington) - Avon River (Toodyay to Beverley, including the towns of Northam and York) - Moore River (Moora) - Greenough River (Walkaway to Indian Ocean) - Chapman River (Geraldton) - Gascoyne River (Carnarvon) - Fitzroy River (Fitzroy Crossing) Request Number: 35393728 Tue Oct 12, 2010 14:00:18 WST Page 2 of 5 Interest Report 100 Year Floodplains Generally, the mapping has delineated the 100 year ARI floodplain into floodway and flood fringe areas. These terms can be defined as : Floodplain The portion of a river valley next to the river channel which is covered with water when the river overflows its banks during major river flows. The term also applies to land adjacent to estuaries which is subject to inundation during flooding. Floodway The river channel and a portion of the floodplain which forms the main flow path for floodwaters once the main channel has overflowed. If the floodway is even partially blocked then upstream flood levels may be raised and thereby affect areas which may not have been previously affected. Proposed development in floodways that is considered obstructiveto major flows is not acceptable. Flood Fringe The area of the floodplain, outside of the floodway, which is affected by flooding but where proposed development could be permitted, subject to building conditions. These areas are generally covered by still or very slow moving waters during a 100 year ARI flood. A minimum habitable floor level of 0.50 metre above the adjacent 100 year ARI flood level is generally recommended. Legislation governing the Interest 100 Year ARI Floodplain Water Resources Legislation Amendment Act 2007 Water Agency (Powers) Act 1984 Agency Response Based on the 100 Year ARI floodplain mapping your property has been identified as being within the 100 year ARI floodplain, or within 300 metres of the floodplain, and may be affected by flooding during a 100 year Average Recurrence Interval (ARI) event. The Floodplain Development strategy for the area states: - Proposed development (ie filling, building, etc) that is located outside the floodway is considered acceptable with respect to major flooding, however, a minimum habitable floor level of 0.50 metre above the adjacent 100 year ARI flood level is generally recommended. - Proposed development (ie filling, building etc) that is located within the floodway and is considered obstructive to major flows is not acceptable as it would increase flood levels upstream. No new dwellings are acceptable within the floodway. The increase in flood level that will result from total development of flood fringe areas has been calculated to be no greater than 0.15 metre. Please note that this strategy also applies to land outside of the 100 year ARI floodplain to ensure that adequate flood protection is provided against the 100 year ARI flood event. Further site specific information should be sought from the Department of Water (refer to contact details below). This advice is related to major river flooding only and other planning issues, such as environmental and Request Number: 35393728 Tue Oct 12, 2010 14:00:18 WST Page 3 of 5 Interest Report 100 Year Floodplains ecological considerations, may also need to be addressed.

  • Assessment of Wetland Invertebrate and Fish Biodiversity for the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy (Gss)
    ASSESSMENT OF WETLAND INVERTEBRATE AND FISH BIODIVERSITY FOR THE GNANGARA SUSTAINABILITY STRATEGY (GSS) Bea Sommer, Pierre Horwitz and Pauline Hewitt Centre for Ecosystem Management Edith Cowan University, Joondalup WA 6027 Final Report to the Western Australian Department of Environment and Conservation November 2008 Assessment of wetland invertebrate and fish biodiversity for the GSS (Final Report) November 2008 This document has been commissioned/produced as part of the Gnangara Sustainability Strategy (GSS). The GSS is a State Government initiative which aims to provide a framework for a whole of government approach to address land use and water planning issues associated with the Gnangara groundwater system. For more information go to www.gnangara.water.wa.gov.au i Assessment of wetland invertebrate and fish biodiversity for the GSS (Final Report) November 2008 Executive Summary This report sought to review existing sources of information for aquatic fauna on the Gnangara Mound in order to: • provide a synthesis of the richness, endemism, rarity and habitat specificity of aquatic invertebrates in wetlands; • identify gaps in aquatic invertebrate data on the Gnangara Mound; • provide a synthesis of the status of freshwater fishes on the Gnangara Mound; • assess the management options for the conservation of wetlands and wetland invertebrates. The compilation of aquatic invertebrate taxa recorded from wetlands on both the Gnangara Mound and Jandakot Mound) between 1977 and 2003, from 18 studies of 66 wetlands, has revealed a surprisingly high richness considering the comparatively small survey area and the degree of anthropogenic alteration of the plain. The total of over 550 taxa from 176 families or higher order taxonomic levels could be at least partially attributed to sampling effort.

  • Agamid Lizards of the Genera Caimanops, Physignathus and Diporiphora in Western Australia and Northern Territory
    Rec. West. Aust. Mus., 1974, 3 (2) AGAMID LIZARDS OF THE GENERA CAIMANOPS, PHYSIGNATHUS AND DIPORIPHORA IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA AND NORTHERN TERRITORY G.M. STORR [Received 11 February 1974. Accepted 15 February 1974] ABSTRACT Caimanopsgen. novo is proposed for Diporiphora amphiboluroides Lucas & Frost. The following species and subspecies ofPhysignathus and Diporiphora are studied: P. longirostris (Boulenger), P. temporalis (Giinther), P. g. gilberti (Gray), P. g. centralis Loveridge, D. convergens nov., D. a. albilabris nov., D. a. sobria nov., D. b. bennettii (GraY), D. b. arnhemica nov., D. magna nov., D. lalliae nov., D. reginae Glauert, D. winneckei Lucas & Frost, D. b. bilineata Gray, D. b. margaretae nov., and D. superba novo INTRODUCTION Recent collections have made it increasingly clear that there are many more species of Diporiphora in the far north of Western Australia than previously believed. The main purpose of this paper is to define these additional species of Diporiphora. Because juvenile Physignathus have often been mistaken for Diporiphora, that genus has been included in this study, and so too has Caimanops gen. nov., whose single species was long placed in Diporiphora. Generally Western Australian species of reptiles seldom extend further east than about longitude 140o E. Brief study of Queensland material showed that Diporiphora and Physignathus were not exceptional in this respect and that most, if not all, specimens belonged to different species or subspecies. It therefore seemed unnecessary to include the Eastern States species in this account of the Western species. The three species of Physignathus and single species of Caimanops are strongly characterized, and their identification should present students with no problems.

[email protected] 2 Centre for Fish & Fisheries Research, Murdoch University, South St, Murdoch, WA 6150. [email protected] Manuscript received September 2007; accepted February 2008 Abstract A paucity of information exists on the fish and crayfish communities of two major rivers that flow into the Leschenault Inlet, south-western Western Australia. This study documents these communities and assesses their ecological significance. During February 2006, seven sites were sampled for fish and freshwater crayfish on each of the Brunswick River and Preston River with additional sites having been previously sampled in the summer of 1999/2000. The rivers generally had similar native fish communities with four endemic species, Freshwater Cobbler, Western Minnow, Western Pygmy Perch and Nightfish making up 60% of all fish captures (2670) with the remaining being from three feral freshwater and six estuarine species. Two native species of freshwater crayfish were also recorded, the Marron and Gilgie. The endemic Western Minnow and Western Pygmy Perch were the most common and widespread native fish species in both rivers. This study recorded what appears to be the Empire Gudgeon in the Preston River; the first record of this northern Australian species in the South-west Drainage Division, and its presence was attributed either to marine larval drift or as a result of an aquarium release.

Not only is cycling proven to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality, it also helps to create more vibrant and welcoming communities. Cycling can facilitate new forms of industry (such as cycle-tourism) and more generally, it enables people to live happier, healthier and more active lives. Fundamentally, increasing cycling mode share is about improving quality of life – something that is critical for attracting and retaining people in regional areas. The key to increasing cycling mode share is The Leeuwin-Naturaliste 2050 Cycling Strategy will providing infrastructure which is not only safe help inform future investment through the Regional and convenient, but also competitive against Bicycle Network Grants Program and potentially other modes of transport. To achieve this, cycling other funding sources. needs to be prioritised ahead of other modes in In developing this strategy, extensive consultation appropriate locations and integrated with adjoining has been undertaken with key stakeholders and land use.
