I would like to start this public hearing for the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into the impacts of native vegetation and biodiversity controls. My name is Neil Byron. I’m the presiding commissioner for this inquiry, and my colleague is Prof Warren Musgrave who is also a commissioner. You’re probably here because you’re aware of the terms of reference, so I won’t attempt to summarise all that. But I would like to say that we have spoken to organisations, land-holders, environmental groups, state and Commonwealth agencies, all sorts of people with an interest in the issues. We’ve received over a hundred submissions from all around Australia so far. We held formal public hearings like this in Brisbane last Monday. Next week we’re in Canberra, Perth and Adelaide and it sort of goes on after that. The purpose of these inquiries is to provide an opportunity for interested parties to formally put on the record their views and their evidence on the matters under examination. We’re working towards producing a draft report for public comment that will go out in probably the beginning of December.

  • Total Management Plan for Water & Sewerage Services
    CHARTERS TOWERS REGIONAL COUNCIL TOTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR WATER SUPPLY AND SEWERAGE SERVICES VERSION 1 - NOVEMBER 2009 EXPLANATORY NOTE In 2008 the Dalrymple Shire Council and Charters Towers City Council were amalgamated to become the Charters Towers Regional Council (CTRC). When combining the assets of both councils both the Total Management Plans (TMP) and Strategic Asset Management Plans (SAMP) from each council required updating to prepare a new TMP document. A change to the governing body has lead to various legislative alternations. Council is now required to include in its planning a SAMP, a System Leakage Management Plan (SLMP) and Drought Management Plan (DMP). A DMP and SLMP were prepared for CTRC in May 2008 and revised following comments in September 2008. Dalrymple Shire Council had prepared a SAMP, while the Charter Towers City Council had prepared a TMP. Both documents included gaps in the information which are being closed as information is found. The organisation of this TMP document is designed as a “living document” to assist engineering staff and management. Through careful planning it allows information in the document to be easily updated, as well as simplifies the annual reporting and review process. The TMP has been updated in compliance with the TMP Development Guide 2001. DOCUMENT AND VERSION CONTROL The TMP is a controlled document. The signed document and version control sheet at the front of the document indicate the current version. Information within the appendices is to be updated in compliance with Section 7 of the Guideline. It requests: • Action Plans – 6-12 months (review with annual reporting requirement).
