    Adelaide Coastal Waters Information Sheet No. 3

    Adelaide Coastal Waters Information Sheet No. 3 Changes in urban environments Issued August 2009 EPA 769/09: This information sheet is part of a series of Fact Sheets on the Adelaide coastal waters and the findings of the Adelaide Coastal Waters Study (ACWS). Introduction Since European settlement in the 1830s, the Adelaide plains and Adelaide’s coastal environment have been subject to considerable change and pressure from a continually increasing population. In recent years there has been growing community concern about the effects of coastal and catchment development on the marine environment. Increases in stormwater flows and waste from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have also been of concern. Nutrients and other pollutants introduced to Adelaide’s nearshore waters from urban and rural runoff, WWTPs and some industrial sources have been found by the Adelaide Coastal Waters Study (ACWS) to have had a negative impact on Adelaide’s nearshore marine environment, including the loss of over 5,000 hectares of seagrass. Historical catchment changes When Adelaide was selected by Colonel William Light for South Australia’s state capital in 1836 there was a wide belt of coastal dunes and wide sandy beaches stretching to the north and south of Glenelg. From Seacliff to Outer Harbor there was a 30 km stretch of sand dunes broken only by the Patawalonga Creek at Glenelg. The Torrens River flowed into a series of swamps lying behind the coastal dunes and drained both north and south to the sea through the Patawalonga Creek and Port River system. The stretch of sand dunes comprised two or more parallel ridges each about 70 to 100 metres wide separated by narrow depressions or swales, consequently very little surface catchment runoff would have reached the coastline.

As a part of this study, Tonkin Consulting have been commissioned to undertake modelling of the impacts of climate change on tidal and storm water flooding around the most vulnerable coastal locations in the Western Region. The investigation has been undertaken in three stages. Stage 1 of the project involved a scoping investigation to identify key assets at highest risk of inundation as a result of climate change.

    Water Quality of the Port River Estuary — a Community Summary

    Water Quality of the Port River Estuary — a community summary Government of South Australia INTRODUCTION In September 1995, the EPA began a long-term program to monitor water quality in the Port River estuary. The estuary consists of the Port River, North Arm, Outer Harbor and the Angas and Barker inlets. It is a biologically diverse aquatic ecosystem, supporting extensive saltmarshes, mangrove stands and seagrass beds. This provides varied habitats for many species of birds, fish, crustaceans, and other marine invertebrates, making the estuary an important natural asset. The EPA collects water samples monthly from nine sites across the estuary, measuring 21 different parameters in five categories—nutrients, water clarity, heavy metals, chlorophyll (algae) and microbiology. Water quality data is categorised as good, moderate or poor using a classification system based on national water quality guidelines. The EPA’s first Port River report summarised data from September 1995 to December 1996 (EPA, 1997a), and found the water quality to be mainly Dept. Environment and Heritage Survey 5573 – Oct 1998 Dept. Environment poor to moderate. Aerial view of the Port River estuary This brochure summarises a new report, Ambient water quality in the Port River estuary September 1995–August 2000. Once again, water quality was shown to be poor to moderate for many parameters—only 51% of classifications were good, 31% were moderate, and 18% were poor. Outer Harbor was the best site, with 71% of the parameters classified as good. The five categories analysed Nutrients High nutrient concentrations can lead to excessive algal and plant growth, causing fish deaths and smothering seagrasses and other plants.

    The Creation of the Torrens : a History of Adelaide's River to 1881

    The Creation of the Torrens: A History of Adelaide's River to 1881 by Sharyn Clarke This is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts in History School of Social Sciences University of Adelaide CONTENTS List of Paintings and Maps Introduction 1 Chapter One: Conceiving the Torrens t4 Chapter Two: Black and White 4t Chapter Three: The Destruction of the Torrens 76 Chapter Four: Meeting the Demand for Progress 105 Chapter Five: The Torrens Lake 130 Conclusion 157 Bilbiography ABSTRACT The River Torrens in Adelaide is a fragile watercourse with variable seasonal flows which was transformed in the nineteenth century into an artificial lake on a European scale. This thesis presents the reasons behind the changes which took place. The creation of the Torrens covers both physical changes and altering conceptions of the river from a society which, on the whole, desired a European river and acted as though the Torrens was one. The period of study ranges from the Kaurna people's life, which adapted around the river they called Karrawirraparri, to the damming of the river in 1881, Being the major river forthe city, the relatively higher population density meant huge environmental pressure, an inability to assess its limits lead to it being heavily polluted and degraded only a decade after white settlement. Distinct stages in the use of the river can be observed and a variety of both positive and negative responses towards it were recorded. By studying the interactions with, and attitudes towards, the River Torrens, and the changes it has undergone, we learn much about the societies that inhabited the river and their values towards a specific and crucial part of the natural environment.

    WHOSE VALUES COUNT? CLASS, PLACE AND HERITAGE DURING WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT PORT ADELAIDE, SOUTH AUSTRALIA Adam Paterson This thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Department of Archaeology, Flinders University of South Australia, Adelaide January 2015 Abstract In Australia there has been little critical reflection on the role that class plays during negotiations over cultural heritage. This stands in contrast to the United Kingdom and the United States, where research aiming to develop a better understanding of how class shapes cultural heritage practice is more common. Key research themes in these countries include identifying how working-class people participate in cultural heritage activities; determining what barriers exist to their participation and what social purpose cultural heritage has within post-industrial communities; and understanding how cultural heritage is used in negotiations over the classed meanings of place during gentrification. This thesis explores the relationships between class, place and heritage in Port Adelaide, South Australia. Once a prosperous industrial and commercial port, since the 1980s Port Adelaide has undergone slow social and economic change. In 2002, the State Government announced plans for major re-development of surplus waterfront land in order to generate profit and economic stimulation for the Port through extensive and rapid development, radically transforming Port Adelaide physically and socially. Drawing on a theoretical framework that
