August 2016

Dear Readers

As usual the past month has been very busy and I think the months ahead will only get busier with the

construction of the two Bridges over the Gascoyne River.

I attended Local Government week on the 3rd of August 2016. From our Shire’s perspective it was a chance for

four of our Councillors to be recognised by their peers for the contribution that they have made to Local

Government. Councillors Locky McTaggart, Don Hammarquist and former Councillors Ross Collins and David

Robinson were presented with awards for ‘Long and Loyal Service – Locky has put in 38 years, Don 26, Ross

35 and Wadi 26 years, giving a combined total of 125 years of service to their community. This is a remarkable

effort by these four individuals and it provides a very stable environment for people such as me, it cannot be

under estimated the value of a consistent and stable leadership. Unfortunately Ross could not make the

presentation as he was away; however, his son Jox received the award on behalf of his father, very fitting in

my opinion as Jox is the fourth generation of the Collins family to represent our community on Council. A big

thanks goes out to Margaret for organising the event as everything went to plan without a single hiccup.

Early on the morning of the 3rd, we held a Special Meeting of Council to decide on the successful tenderer for the construction of the bridges. In this case the successful tenderer was a company called Marine and Civil. It is their intention to be onsite in late August and with a possible completion date of late November, early December. Due to the nature of the construction there will not be a lot of work available for local residents; however, there may be some casual vacancies, please contact the HR Manager Shanelle Zanazzi on Direct Line : 08 9256 5913 | Fax: 08 9256 5901 or via Email: [email protected] .

Council News

Later that morning the Shire President, the Deputy President and I had a meeting with the Minister for

Water, Hon Mia Davies, where we identified problems with our current water supply arrangements and

we offered a solution to the problem. This will require a significant investment by the Department of

Water; however the return on investment will only take 2 years. Mia has taken our proposal on notice

and will instruct her Department to undertake further investigations.

It appears that the Doctors service will recommence in the near future. The new practice manager for

the Aboriginal Health Service will be coming out soon to fine tune how we are going to operate going

forward. This is a great outcome as I believe that this service is essential for a remote community such

as ours and it will assist those of us who struggle to make the trip into Carnarvon for minor ailments.

At the time of writing I have only received three (3) submissions regarding the naming of the

Bridge (s), it was my intention to take these to the next Council Meeting; however, if we don’t receive a

greater number of submissions I may have to defer this until the September Meeting. So PLEASE, if you

have an idea for a name and the reason why you chose this name please make a submission, if you are

not comfortable putting it in writing see either Margaret or Blanche and they can articulate your

submission.

Looking forward, I am excited about the Junction Races, this will be first for me, and from all accounts

it is a great weekend. I would like to acknowledge the contribution that my staff members have made

towards getting the track and surrounds in order.

With the commencement of the works on the crossing I would urge all road users to follow the signs

and be patient, please remember that people are on or adjacent to the crossing and we have an

absolute imperative to provide a safe work place. The small pain the disruptions will cause will be far

outweighed by the provision of the Bridge (s) now and for future generations.

As always, if you wish to see me pop into the office, come around home or give me a call on 99430988 or 0417107446 or via email – [email protected].

Kindest regards

Have you ever wanted to name a bridge? Here is your chance. The soon to

be built bridge located at the Gascoyne Junction crossing will be in need of a

name and we are calling on all people from our local community to send

their ideas into our CEO John McCleary.

Bridge names are important in times of emergency or natural disasters. Names also reflect culture and heritage aspects of local communities. Naming ideas should be relevant to the local community or commemorate a local event, person, group of people, or place and should not be deemed offensive. You will need to provide your bridge name and also a reason why you chose this name. Ideas will need to be submitted by 19th August 2016 and will then be presented to the council who will make a final decision. Please email ideas to [email protected] or drop into the Shire office and speak to John.

An interview with volunteer Campground Hosts Debbie and Andy Crook:

by Gavan Mullan (Parks and Wildlife - Carnarvon)

Debbie and Andy Crook were Campground Hosts at Temple Gorge campground at Kennedy Range National Park for eight weeks this year during May and June. I had a chat with them just before they headed off and asked about their experience and their reason for volunteering. This is a bit about Debbie and Andy and what they had to say.

“Originally both from country WA, we love the natural environment and love to share our enthusiasm for the environment with national park visitors. In this role, we have met a great diversity of people and made many friends.

We understand that helping visitors to quickly settle-in and appreciate the national park attractions brings great satisfaction to visitors. The positive feedback we receive from visitors is especially rewarding.

Being country people, we also know that our efforts in helping visitors get the most out of their visit benefits the local Gascoyne community. Satisfied visitors usually stay longer and usually spread the word to their family, friends and colleagues about their experience – a great form of advertising for the local area.

We have volunteered at Kennedy Range National Park for several years now – usually for eight weeks each year – working in and around the campground and further afield in the park. The personal rewards are far greater than our input.

We now live in Perth and spend many months each year volunteering in the State’s diverse and remarkable National Parks and also for other causes.”

Like the national park visitors Debbie and Andy have a diverse background also. Most recently Debbie worked for 13 years for the United States Consulate General in Perth. Before that Debbie worked for the British Embassy in Jakarta, and before that many years in State and Federal Government. In contrast, Andy worked as a specialist diesel mechanic for the Federal Government which opened doors to working around the world including all around Australia, Antarctica, and at the Australian Embassy in Jakarta.

Gary Hearle and Gavan Mullan from the local Parks and Wildlife office wish to express a special thank you to Debbie and Andy.

Total Grazing Pressure in the rangelands

The combined stocking rates of all grazing animals is known as Total Grazing Pressure (TGP), and when it’s

uncontrolled, it can have a huge effect on a grazing business. This effect can be two-fold, being:

reduced, and

meaning the land is less productive.

As part of the Meat Industry Strategic Plan 2020 (MISP 2020), Meat & Livestock Australia (MLA) has

recognised that uncontrolled TGP represents a significant risk to red meat production. To begin to address

the problem, MLA recently called for preliminary project proposals for: ‘Managing feed supply and demand in

extensive livestock production systems – total grazing pressure’.

After consultation earlier in the year, Rangelands NRM WA has submitted a project proposal on our behalf. It

is planned that demonstration sites and other initiatives will provide evidence of the benefits of TGP

management.

Why is TGP important? To quote from the TGP project application:

‘A recent Australian study suggests that livestock grazing is unlikely to produce ecosystem benefits in

Australian rangelands and non-domestic herbivores have no effect on ecological functions and biodiversity of

these regions (Eldridge et al. 2016). This suggests extensive pastoralism remains the major contributing

factor to land degradation in these areas.’

This is not a very pastoral industry friendly message and government could chose to hear it. The only way

we can address this as an industry is to get some runs on the board for improved ecological management.

It is known that excessive TGP has caused much rangeland degradation and once country is degraded, it

does not take a lot of grazing pressure to keep it in a degraded or degrading state.

Evidence of this can be seen in the landscape where grasses only, or primarily, grow in the protection of

shrubs or fallen branches (see Photo 1). These grasses would have tried to grow across the landscape but

lack of physical protection from herbivores meant they were quickly consumed.

Kangaroos can be a large part of excessive TGP. Proliferation of water points allowing grazing access across

broad landscapes have led to increases in the kangaroo population. Their control is a nation-wide challenge

which has a history of being an intractable problem. Solving the kangaroo issue will require the active

engagement of both State and Commonwealth governments.

The most effective thing that you can do to reverse rangeland degradation is to lower TGP enough to leave

vegetation and ground cover in place. This is matching stocking to rate carrying capacity. It will allow more

germination, especially perennial grasses, to establish which can then set you up on a virtuous cycle of

improvement as your Rainfall Use Efficiency (RUE) improves.

15

Photo 1. Grass growing in the only place it can, under protection

What can be done?

TGP management activities vary from culling and harvesting undomesticated animals, water point control

and management, exclusion fencing and implementing grazing management to provide strategic periods of

rest.

A local example of TGP control gained through exclusion fencing is the new 10,000 hectare paddock

erected at Meka Station. The paddock is located on a flood plain so they have installed electric fencing

because it may handle a flood better than a netting fence. It is designed to exclude both dogs and

kangaroos. Cost of materials was around $2,500 per kilometre.

Meka is currently de-stocked so the difference between grasses inside and outside of the paddock, of about

3,000kg of dry matter per hectare, is the result of uncontrolled kangaroo grazing on the outside.

Doing some rough figures and being conservative. Say there is an extra 1,500kg/Dry Matter (DM)/Ha inside

the paddock. That’s 15Million kg of additional DM feed available. If we leave 50% for ecological health (as

Resource Consulting Services says; ‘The more you leave the more you grow.’) we have 7.5Mkg DM

available for our livestock. Meeka are running sheep so if we give the sheep 2kg DM day over the year we

can run 10,273 sheep in the paddock. Which is quite an improvement for parts of southern rangelands.

“Ultimately, we hope pastoralists attending this workshop will go on to trial affordable

technologies to manage varying erosion types and water flow and trial a variety of

techniques to control erosion,” Mr Watson said.

He said this workshop was to build base knowledge of the project participants and

explore options as a group.

The group visited priority areas identified through an ESRM (Environmentally Sustainable

Rangelands Management) Plan on Carey Downs to discuss how to read the landscape and

identify optimum placement of erosion filters structures.

The workshop also included a group session on reading the landscape for placement as

well as ideas for erosion control approach.

“We need to work out how to recover from erosion and regenerate large areas at low cost,” Upper Gascoyne LCDC President

Jason Hastie said when making introductions for the commencement of the workshop.

“It will be interesting to see how the group takes the learnings from this workshop and develop them into the Rangelands

NRM facilitated project to build sieves on their properties,” Mr Watson said.

Some points on sieve construction that came out of the workshop (compiled by UG LCDC) were:

“It was a really valuable couple of days, it made me reconsider my approach,” pastoralist Matthew Hammarquist said. “I’ve

seen other possibilities and built confidence to proceed with sieve erosion works at Mt Augustus.”

“We’ve been looking at some rangelands in pretty poor shape,” said Harry McKeough from Carey Downs said. “We are

exploring methods to fix them up, and I’ve picked up a lot that I can now put in place. I’ve learnt aspects of reading the

rangelands and identifying my problem areas.”

“Hugh Pringle has a fantastic understanding of landscape processes,” David Pollock from Wooleen Station said. “It’s fabulous

to have someone with that depth of knowledge available”.

The Australian Army Band Perth Irwin Barracks, KARRAKATTA, WA, 6010, ph (08) 9269 4474, 0417 474 214

The Australian Army Band Perth is made up of Army reserve musicians in the shape of a Glenn Miller style ensemble. They perform music from the 40s through to the current day tunes we hear on the airwaves.

With their two very talented singers out front, they are a great band to sit back and simply enjoy or get up and boogie the night away to.

The Army Band occupies a prominent position in Western Australia. This distinguished group of soldier/musicians maintains a high standard of performance at official and public performances in Perth and throughout Western Australia.

As part of the tour, the band will also provide some entertainment to children from the Gascoyne school and local residents around lunchtime on the 31 August 2016. The venue will be the Gascoyne Junction Pavilion.

The Australian Army Band Perth will perform a concert on the riverbank of the MooLoo Downs homestead on Thursday 01 Sep 2016 commencing just on sunset. The band conducted it’s first performance here 5 years ago as a culmination to flood recovery efforts undertaken by Australian Army and Navy personnel. This tour coincides with the five year anniversary of that Australian Defence Force contribution to assisting those Australians in need following a major disaster.

Bring a chair, swag, food and some refreshments and join the folks at Mooloo Downs and let the Australian Army Band entertain you as the sun sets in the night sky over the Upper Gascoyne.
