The Institute serves the conservation community through scientific research; education and training; field projects; and the dissemination of the results of both its work and the work of others in the field. In all its endeavors, the Institute is committed to addressing unanswered questions and to promoting the highest possible standards of conservation practice. The Institute is a program of the J. Paul Getty Trust, an international cultural and philanthropic institution devoted to the visual arts and the humanities that includes an art museum as well as programs for education, scholarship, and conservation.

    1979/3. Groundwater, mineral resources and land stability in the Tasman Peninsula. W.C. Cromer, R.C. Donaldson P. C. Stevenson V.N. Threader Abstract Groundwater prospects, mineral deposits and land stability are discussed to provide information for a planning study of the Tasman Peninsula. INTRODUCTION This report was written at the request of the Commissioner for Town and Country Planning, and is the result of a map compilation, a search of records and field work during the period 20 - 24 November 1978. 1. Groundwater from fractured rocks P.C. Stevenson The amoun~ of water that may be obtained from the hard rocks of the Peninsula by boreholes is controlled by the composition and conditions of weathering and fracture. The amount of direct information is limited because only eight bore­ holes have been recorded, all at Koonya, Premaydena or Nubeena, but exper­ ience in other parts of the State enable some general comments to be made. The geology of the Peninsula is shown in Figure 1. The Jurassic dolerite, which forms many of the most rugged and remote parts of the Peninsula, has not been drilled for water but is regarded throughout Tasmania as an extremely poor prospect; very hard to drill, almost always dry and where water exists it is hard and saline. It cannot be recommended. The Permian mudstone and fine-grained sandstone have not been drilled in the Peninsula, but elsewhere are reliable producers of good quality groundwater. yields of 20 to 150 l/min and qualities of 200 - 600 mg/l of total dissolved solids are usual.

    Submission #2045 - Marine Finfish Aquaculture Development in Storm Bay (Tasmania) - West of Wedge Island Title of Proposal - Marine Finfish Aquaculture Development in Storm Bay (Tasmania) - West of Wedge Island Section 1 - Summary of your proposed action Provide a summary of your proposed action, including any consultations undertaken. 1.1 Project Industry Type Aquaculture 1.2 Provide a detailed description of the proposed action, including all proposed activities. The proposed action is to farm Atlantic Salmon at a new farming zone in Storm Bay, Tasmania. This zone represents an offshore extension to Tassal's existing marine farming leases (MF 190, MF 193, MF 194 and MF 055) within the Tasman Peninsula and Norfolk Bay Marine Farming Development Plan areas. The proposed new farming zone would be approximately 863 Ha containing four leases of approximately 90 Ha each. Within each 90 Ha lease, surface located marine farming equipment will be up to 45 Ha. Any equipment outside this 45 Ha would be at least 5 metres below the surface at the lease boundary. These dimensions will allow for the establishment of a grid mooring system with the capacity to house 16 pen bays on each of the four leases (a total of 64 pen bays). The proposed action in Storm Bay requires the construction and placement of new marine farming infrastructure in waters to the west of Wedge Island. This infrastructure would include: • Mooring and grid system – comprising of 1 x 16 pen bay mooring grid (within each of four proposed leases). Independent mooring configuration will be used to secure feed barges.
