  • NORTH-WEST AUSTRALIAN ROCK PAINTINGS by Agnes Susannt Schuls, Frobemus Institute
    Memoirs of the National Museum of Victoria January 1956 https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1956.20.01 NORTH-WEST AUSTRALIAN ROCK PAINTINGS By Agnes Susannt Schuls, Frobemus Institute. Frank furl. Preface The Frobenius Expedition to North-Western Australia, March-December, 1938, made a survey of a number of the picture caves and rock-shelters of the Kimberley tribes. The World War and post-war conditions have so far prevented publication, so that the account given here is the first to be presented. The extensive paintings found in rock galleries of the Kimberleys form a class of their own among the widely diffused drawings and paintings of .he Australian aborigines. Professor Elkin, who in 1928 investigated some of these galleries, was the first to realize their significance. 1 The very first discovery of representations of the human-shaped but mouthless mythic being Wond'ina was made by Sir George Grey over a century ago.- About 1900 Mr. Fred. Brockman travelled the Kimberleys and took photographs of whatever Wond'ina paintings he came across; they were published by F. M. House/' In the Northern Territory, D. S. Davidson found rock paintings to a certain extent related to the Wond'ina paintings ; in his comprehensive book on Australian aboriginal art he reproduces also some of Brockman's and Elkin's photographs. 4 Grey's much- discussed reproductions can now be compared with the recovered originals. 5 Mr. Coate's researches have widened and deepened what had already been established in substance by Professor Elkin. A different type of representations of human figures occurs in Central and Northern Kimberley.

  • Environmental Guidance for Planning and Development
    Part A Environmental protection and land use planning in Western Australia Environmental Guidance for Part B Biophysical factors Planning and Development Part C Pollution management May 2008 Part D Social surroundings Guidance Statement No. 33 2007389-0508-50 Foreword The Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) is an independent statutory authority and is the key provider of independent environmental advice to Government. The EPA’s objectives are to protect the environment and to prevent, control and abate pollution and environmental harm. The EPA aims to achieve some of this through the development of environmental protection guidance statements for the environmental impact assessment (EIA) of proposals. This document is one in a series being issued by the EPA to assist proponents, consultants and the public generally to gain additional information about the EPA’s thinking in relation to aspects of the EIA process. The series provides the basis for EPA’s evaluation of, and advice on, proposals under S38 and S48A of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act) subject to EIA. The guidance statements are one part of assisting proponents, decision-making authorities and others in achieving environmentally acceptable outcomes. Consistent with the notion of continuous environmental improvement and adaptive environmental management, the EPA expects proponents to take all reasonable and practicable measures to protect the environment and to view the requirements of this Guidance as representing the minimum standards necessary. The main purposes of this EPA guidance statement are: • to provide information and advice to assist participants in land use planning and development processes to protect, conserve and enhance the environment • to describe the processes the EPA may apply under the EP Act to land use planning and development in Western Australia, and in particular to describe the environmental impact assessment (EIA) process applied by the EPA to schemes.

  • “King George River” Anchorage
    King George River copyright KCCYC.org.au Navigation. Chart Aus 727. Lat 13°58.0S Long 127°20.1E. The river is navigable for approximately 7.5 NM. Tide. The nearest tide chart is Lesueur Island. Tidal range up to about 3.0M. The main navigation risk in the King George is the sand bar outside the entrance to the river in Koolama Bay. Koolama Bay is protected from the SE trade winds predominant in the dry season and heavy seas are calmed before they reach the river mouth, which makes it a reasonably easy sand bar crossing, but it should only be tackled in daylight at near high tide, preferably on a rising tide. Waypoints over the bar that the writer has used on many occasions are shown below. But be aware that the deeper channel through the sand shoals, which is washed out by the tide, changes position and depth from year to year, therefore, it is prudent for deep draft vessels to survey the channel in a tender before attempting the bar crossing. Surveying at low tide can make it easier to find the deeper channel. The channel and sand shoals can be clearly seen on the Google satellite photo below. When the water is reasonably clear, the channel can be readily seen from a high vantage point, such as a fly bridge, or up a mast. At LW springs the deepest part of the channel can be less than 0.5M deep. Figure 1. Sand shoals clearly visible outside the entrance to KGR. Note the channel cut through the shoals by the tide.
