  • Select Committee Inquiry Into the Murray-Darling Basin Plan
    Submission to the Select Committee Inquiry into the Murray-Darling Basin Plan September 2015 Prepared by Stuart Simms and Raelene Peel On behalf of the Kerang Lakes Land and Water Action Group Kerang Lakes Land and Water Action Group Secretary In making this submission to the Senate Select Committee inquiry into the Murray-Darling Basin Plan on behalf of the Kerang Lakes Land and Water Action Group (KLL&WAG) we wish to address • the social, economic and environmental effects on our community of an existing Murray- Darling Basin Authority Salt Interception Scheme • the challenges of sustainable production in the Murray Darling Basin • the management of the Lower Lakes and Coorong • environmental watering of Red Gum Forests 1. Social, economic and environmental effects of an existing Murray-Darling Basin Authority Salt Interception Scheme To demonstrate we provide the following case study on the Barr Creek Drainage Scheme that came into operation in 1968 and its ongoing effects on the social, economic and environmental sustainability of our community. Barr Creek Drainage Scheme Case Study: The Tutchewop Lakes, comprising Lakes Tutchewop, Little, Kelly and William are located in north- western Victoria. Lake Tutchewop, the largest of the lakes is approximately 30 km’s north of Kerang, whilst Lake Kelly is 1 km west of the Loddon River, a tributary of the Murray River. Under natural conditions Lake Tutchewop was an intermittent freshwater lake, supplied by the Avoca and Loddon River systems via the network of lakes and wetlands referred to as the Kerang Lakes. In 1923 Lake Tutchewop was incorporated into the Torrumbarry Irrigation System, a role it performed until 1935 when it was decommissioned due to water losses.

  • Inquiry Into Flood Mitigation Infrastructure in Victoria Submission No.6
    Inquiry into flood mitigation infrastructure in Victoria Submission no.6 Lake Boga Vic. 3584 23rd July 2011 The Chairman Inquiry into Flood Mitigation Infrastructure in Victoria Dear Mr Koch, Herewith, I offer a submission to your enquiry which includes items I hope will be acted upon after you deliver your report. I also hope my submission and remarks give additional information to help you arrive at your conclusions. Now retired, I once conducted woolgrowing activities in the Tresco – Mystic Park area. I have lived at Tresco over 72 years, have experienced three major floods in that time, and know the Benjeroop, Mystic Park, Lake Boga region well. It is the Avoca River, terminating in this area, with which I am particularly experienced. All remarks and recommended works for the Avoca Outfall are based on experience and knowledge of the flood characteristics of that area of the river. The latest 2011 flood, considered the greatest since European settlement, was carried by existing infrastructure of the Outfall channel past Mystic Park, but its disposal beyond that township was poor because of much needed works and improved management. Below, is my resume of the past and present situation of this river and lakes system, followed by a list of works urgently required to safeguard against future damage in the control of floods. Yours faithfully, John Jobson The Avoca, Loddon and Murray Rivers in the region north of Kerang. Three rivers in flood (the Avoca, Loddon and Murray Rivers) reach this region and converge in one general area (Benjeroop, Winlaton, Fish Point, Lake Boga) before proceeding past Swan Hill in one river – the Murray.
