IMEF (Integrated Monitoring of Environmental Flows)

The Integrated Monitoring of Environmental Flows (IMEF) program consists of ecological monitoring projects across the regulated rivers of NSW. IMEF was set up to monitor environmental flow effects and included projects such as the effect of inundating floodplain wetlands (Hypothesis 7) on water quality, aquatic vegetation, invertebrates and frogs. Other project included monitoring the effect of translucent releases from major dams on river water quality, biofilm development and stony be invertebrates. Instream productivity in lowland rivers downstream of dams were also monitored. In some catchments, waterbirds, blackwater events, and other ecological indicators were used.

Trip generation, parking demand and vessel movement surveys of marinas : analysis report

The former Roads and Traffic Authority (RTA) published its Guide to Traffic Generating Developments in the mid-1990s. This document, which is still used extensively by Councils, consultants and developers, drew on the results of a number of trip generation and parking demand surveys covering a wide range of business and land use types. These surveys had been conducted since 1978.
The latest edition of the Guide (2002) stipulates rates for marinas which have been in place since the 1992 edition of the Guide. These rates are based on surveys undertaken in Pittwater in 1978 and Middle Harbour in 1990.
In April 2001, Christopher Hallam &amp; Associates (CHA) prepared the report “The Car Parking Implications of Marina Developments” for the Boating Industry Association of NSW. In November 2008, CHA issued a follow-up report titled “The Traffic and Parking Implications of Marina Developments”, which updated the 2001 report by including more recent survey data collected between September 2006 and January 2008. Among the report’s key findings were a higher parking demand per mooring than per berth, and a small trend for larger group size and parking demands with increasing boat lengths. Australian Standard AS 3962:2020 (Marina Design) was updated on March 2020 with lower parking rates stipulated in the latest version, in comparison to the 2001 version.
Nonetheless, with a growth in the number and variety of marinas throughout Australia, it is necessary to undertake a new study for marinas featuring a much greater range of characteristics, including:
* Range of mooring and vessel storage types,
* Range of marina sizes,
* Range of geographic locations,
* Public access and private membership facilities, and
* Other on-site facilities.
Consequently, The Transport Planning Partnership (TTPP) has been appointed to undertake a detailed analysis of marinas. The study includes new surveys to collect traffic characteristics relating to vehicle, person and vessels trips as well as site observations to determine travel behaviour of visitors and staff.
The results from these surveys are then compared with similar data available from the other Australian road / planning agencies and various overseas organisations to assess the relevance and applicability of that data for use in the local context.

WQ SWAMP Monitoring Locations NSW


This dataset contains point features that are a depiction of the monitoring locations for the NSW State Water Quality Assessment and Monitoring Program (SWAMP).
SWAMP is a state-wide program to collect, analyse and report water quality in NSW rivers. It has operated since 2007 and collects data from ~140 sites across 13 different regions on a monthly basis.
SWAMP collects water quality data to:

Assess ambient river water quality in terms of electrical conductivity, temperature, turbidity, total suspended solids, pH, dissolved oxygen, phosphorus and nitrogen at selected sites across NSW
Provide high quality, long term, statistically robust data to enable river condition and trend reporting
Provide data to enable measures of compliance with state and national guidelines and standards, and
Provide a framework of state-wide river water quality monitoring across NSW upon which other programs can build.
For more information please see SWAMP on SEED.
This data is used for:

Annual SWAMP reporting
Updating the River Condition Index
Matter 12 (reported every 5 years)
Basin Technical reports
Water Quality Index
Water Sharing Plan risk assessments
The data contains the River Condition Index target values for the unique water quality zone that each site is located in. Please refer to the method document for more details:
Targets to develop a water quality index for NSW rivers - River condition index.pdf
All water quality data are collected and archived by Water NSW. All data are generated according to documented procedures for collecting samples, providing quality control samples and the preservation and transport of samples as recommended in Australia Standard AS/NZS 5667.1.1998 water quality sampling. All procedures are based on, and comply with, recognised departmental and external standards to ensure that the project delivers data of the highest possible standard. Level of data audit is a review of summary results, by comparing the data to previous minimum and maximum data, considering what is reasonable for that parameter in that general location, and comparing lab and field data for the same parameter from the same sampling date to see if variance is reasonable. Full details describing location, date and other attributes of water samples are recorded and all instruments are regularly serviced and calibrated. All laboratories analysis is undertaken at a NATA accredited laboratory. Where a laboratory result is less than the detectable limit for a parameter, the detection limit has been used for analysis.
 
Lineage:
The point dataset was created on 15/12/2025 from site information from Water NSW Water Quality database. The 75th percentiles for the measured parameters are the River Condition Index target values for the unique water quality zone that each site is located in. The targets were calculated using the 2007 to 2020 data.

Child restraint size : TARU 6/76

This report is intended as a source of information to be used in the development and evaluation of child safety restraints. It is in the main literature survey of Australian, British and American sources. It demonstrates that a suitable characteristic which may be used to accurately define a restraint size is the child’s mass. It provides dimensions for relevant body lengths, such that 98 per cent of children of a given mass will be comfortably restrained. In order to have the means of testing the size of the restraint, designs are produced for four body blocks of mass, 9, 14, 19 and 38 kilograms.
