  • The Permanent Walk Booklet Update
    1 2 THE OLD AUSTRALIAN AGRICULTURAL COMPANY KARUAH TO TAHLEE WALK BOOKLET (Revised for 2015) We acknowledge and recognise the Worimi people on whose land we walk. GENERAL INTRODUCTION WHY WALK? Once every year, Karuah residents and friends walk the 5 kilometres or so from Karuah to Tahlee along the Old AACo Road. It only happens once a year because the road crosses Yalimbah Creek and the bridge that used to cross the creek has gone. In the late 1950s, the bridge which had been built under the direction of Robert Dawson in 1826 was burnt down by persons unknown. At that stage, the bridge was more than 130 years old, a remarkable age for a wooden bridge. Up to that point residents of the two villages had travelled back and forth on a daily basis. From then on, they were forced to take the current route which is 14 kilometres long. So, every year for the last five years, a local oyster farmer has offered an oyster barge to carry people over the creek and around 150 people re-enact the trip from village to village. Karuah Progress association hosts the day which includes a light lunch, guides, afternoon tea and an inspection of historic Tahlee House and a bus ride back to Karuah via the new route as well as a photocopied version of this booklet. TAHLEE AND KARUAH – IN THE EARLY 19TH CENTURY: In 1825 when the Australian Agricultural Company was formed, 10,000 shares were offered at one hundred pounds per share and they were snapped up by the rich and famous.

  • Community Report 2015 Cover Photo Courtesy of Daniel Danuser General Manager’S Message
    Kooragang Island Community Report 2015 Cover photo courtesy of Daniel Danuser General Manager’s Message Welcome to our inaugural Community Report. The purpose of this report is to provide you with a summary of Orica Kooragang Island’s operations and achievements over the last 12 months. We reached some significant milestones including gaining approval to install three ammonia flaring Scott Reid systems, which will capture and burn off unplanned General Manager ammonia emissions. We also switched the majority of the Orica Kooragang Island site to recycled water, a move that will save the Hunter Region up to 2.3 billion litres of drinking water a year. During 2014 we continued to develop our relationship with the community through our many engagement activities, including Community Reference Group meetings, site tours and attendance at local events. In addition, we supported numerous Newcastle-based groups to deliver a diverse range of projects through our Community Investment Program and other sponsorship opportunities. Last July Orica Kooragang Island was fined $733,250 for six incidents that took place between October 2010 and December 2011. Orica deeply regrets what happened but it has served as a catalyst for real change in the way we operate. I believe much progress has been made since those incidents occurred. There is still more to be done and we will maintain our commitment to continuous improvement. Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, our community, for being part of our journey and I assure you we will continue to work hard to meet your expectations. Students from a local high school touring the ammonia plant as part of the HSC Chemistry Program.
