  • Explanatory Introduction
    Outer Metropolitan Link to Melbourne Airport and Bulla Bypass DESKTOP ASSESSMENT REPORT Name of Activity: OMR Link to Melbourne Airport and Bulla Bypass AAV Management Plan Identifier: -- Sponsor: VicRoads Cultural Heritage Advisor: Andrew Long & Associates Author(s): Jonathan Howell-Meurs and Eden Alley-Porter (Andrew Long & Associates) This public access version has been edited to omit location and grid reference details of Aboriginal cultural heritage Report Date: 08/08/11 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This investigation was undertaken by searching relevant Commonwealth, State and local registers for any known heritage sites or places in the Project Area. Background research was also undertaken into the cultural heritage context and environmental history of the Project Area. This involved reviewing existing information on the Project Area including reports from previous heritage surveys undertaken in or within the project study area, published works about cultural heritage in the relevant geographic region, and historical and ethno-historical accounts of Aboriginal occupation of the relevant geographic region. All proposed alignments will impact at least one registered Aboriginal cultural heritage place and Options C – G will likely impact two sites. In terms of unregistered Aboriginal cultural heritage, those options which utilise existing road alignments are preferable over those which traverse previously undeveloped or minimally disturbed land as the potential to impact upon previously undisturbed Aboriginal cultural heritage is significantly greater in these areas than along pre-existing road alignments. On this basis Option E is to be preferred over Option H for example. In terms of non-Aboriginal cultural heritage sites and places, there is a greater degree of variation between the proposed options.

Although I became A aware of Adrian Rawlins’ work and reputation quite soon after arriving in Australia in 1960, and we had met a few times in later years, it was not until the late ‘90s that I really got to know him well. You could even say we became mates, a term that I use very sparingly. We actually caught up with each other on a gray Melbourne day in Roger Beilby’s Mainly Jazz record shop at St Kilda. We subsequently went to lunch and, each of us having a deep interest in the poetry and jazz movements of the late ‘50s discussed several potential collaborative writing projects on that topic. With his help and permission, I re-edited his fine essay on jazz and poetry in Melbourne in the ‘60s, which had appeared some years before in the Victorian Jazz Club’s Jazzline, and published it in my own WordJazz Down Under.

  • Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Council in Relation to an Application by Taungurung Clans Aboriginal Corporation to Be a Registered Aboriginal Party
    DECISION OF THE VICTORIAN ABORIGINAL HERITAGE COUNCIL IN RELATION TO AN APPLICATION BY TAUNGURUNG CLANS ABORIGINAL CORPORATION TO BE A REGISTERED ABORIGINAL PARTY DATE OF DECISION: 16 July 2009 Decision The Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Council (the Council) registers the Taungurung Clans Aboriginal Corporation (TCAC) as a registered Aboriginal party (RAP) under section 151 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act (Vic) 2006 (the Act). A map showing the area for which TCAC has been made a RAP (the RAP Area) is attached (Attachment 1). Reasons for Decision Overview TCAC represents Taungurung people who are members of the Kulin nation from cental Victoria. Members of the organisation have an ongoing relationship with the land of Taungurung people and some continue to live on country. This appointment confirms Taungurung people will continue to manage and celebrate their cultural heritage within their traditional country. TCAC have been appointed for just over half of the area for which they are seeking to become a RAP. Traditional Links TCAC is an organisation representing Taungurung (also ‘Taungurong’, ‘Daung Wurrung’) people, the Traditional Owners of country in central Victoria including the approved RAP area. TCAC membership is open to “Adult Aboriginal persons who are of Taungurung descent proven through genealogy”. TCAC provided genealogical and historical data to support their claim and the Council also conducted its own research. Research provided to the Council confirmed the traditional links of the TCAC membership and that the TCAC is able to accommodate any descendants of known apical ancestors in the RAP area. Other Aboriginal interests in the area The Council noted that there are a number of areas of the TCAC application which overlap with claims to country of other Traditional Owner groups.
