Brogo Dam

Brogo Dam is a minor ungated rockfill embankment dam with an uncontrolled unlined rock cut spillway across the Brogo River upstream of Brogo in the South Coast region of New South Wales, Australia. The dam's purpose includes environmental flows, hydro-electric power generation, irrigation, and water supply. The impounded reservoir is also called Brogo Dam. Location and features Commenced in 1964 and completed in 1976, the Brogo Dam is a major dam on the Brogo River, a tributary of the Bega River, and is located approximately 30 kilometres (19 mi) northwest of Bega. The dam was built by Citra Constructions Pty Limited on behalf of the New South Wales Department of Land and Water Conservation to supply water for irrigation and potable water for the towns of Quaama, Cobargo, and Bermagui. The dam supplies water to farmers along the Brogo and Bega rivers for stock and domestic use and irrigation on improved pastures for stock feed. Dairy farming is the main industry in the Bega Valley and the dam ensures a continuous and reliable supply for this activity. The dam wall comprises 8,547 cubic metres (301,800 cu ft) of concrete-faced rock fill and is 43 metres (141 ft) high and is 260 metres (850 ft) long. The maximum water depth is 25 metres (82 ft) and at 100% capacity the dam wall holds back 8,980 megalitres (317×10^6 cu ft) of water at 102 metres (335 ft) AHD. The surface area of Brogo Dam is 100 hectares (250 acres) and the catchment area is 400 square kilometres (150 sq mi). The uncontrolled unlined rock cut spillway is capable of discharging 3,700 cubic metres per second (130,000 cu ft/s). Power generation In 2002, Delta Electricity won the right to construct a mini hydro power station and generate up to 2 megawatts (2,700 hp) of electricity from the flow of the water leaving Brogo Dam. Recreation Brogo Dam is stocked with Australian Bass and eels can also be found in the dam's waters. Boating and canoeing on the dam's surface are permitted. The area surrounding the dam has abundant ferns and rock orchids that provide a photographer's paradise.

Cootamundra West railway station

Cootamundra West railway station is a heritage-listed former railway station on the Lake Cargelligo line located in Cootamundra, New South Wales, Australia. It lies approximately 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) NNE of Cootamundra railway station. The property was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999. History The station opened in 1911. As part of works to duplicate the Main Southern railway line between Wallendbeen and Cootamundra in 1916, more substantial station facilities were built at the station to allow passengers on the Lake Cargelligo branch line to avoid the need to stop in Cootamundra proper. A refreshment room operated until 25 May 1930; after this date, the Temora mail train would continue to Cootamundra railway station and only make a two minute stop at Cootamundra West. Amid a housing shortage in 1949, it was proposed to convert the station buildings into accommodation for railway workers, many of who were living in tents. By 1954 however, the station had instead been renovated as office space for the district superintendent and staff. The station has been closed since 1983 when passenger services along the branch were withdrawn, although freight has continued to use the line. It was subsequently used by CADAS (Cootamundra Amateur Dramatic Arts Society) Juniors as a rehearsal space. Description The station complex consists of a double-storey, type 11 brick station building and brick-faced platform dating from 1911 as well as the former refreshment room. It survives in good condition. Gallery Heritage listing Cootamundra West is a major station building which was abandoned as a station because of the change of proposed route for the main southern line. It is one of the finest structures from the Edwardian period of railway building and is a good example of redundancy becoming obsolescence shortly after construction. The station group is a strong element in the townscape and of high significance in the development and history of railway construction. The building was used for many years as offices after its original purpose was changed. Cootamundra West railway station was listed on the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 2 April 1999 having satisfied the following criteria. The place possesses uncommon, rare or endangered aspects of the cultural or natural history of New South Wales. This item is assessed as historically rare. This item is assessed as scientifically rare. This item is assessed as socially rare.

Язовир на Гоогонг

Язовирът на Гоогонг е неголям язовир в Австралия, щата Нов Южен Уелс, край градчето Гоогонг. Предназначен е за водоснабдяване на столицата Канбера и град Куинбейн. Язовирът е създаден чрез Закона за водоснабдяване на Канбера. Завършен е през 1979 г. Местоположение Разположен е на река Куинбейн и Брадли крийк. Намира се на 1,3 километра югоизточно от градчето Гоогонг, на 3,5 км южно-югоизточно от град Куинбейн (също в Нов Южен Уелс) и на 10 км югоизточно от Канбера. Язовирът е построен от Thiess въз основа на проекти, разработени в отдел по строителство и комунални услуги. Днес се управлява от държавната корпорация „Айкън уотър“ (Icon Water). Особености Неговата дига е от скали и глинеста земя, с бетонен преливник и също почти 13 метра висока подпорна дига по течението на река Куинбейн в главния регион на Нов Южен Уелс. Язовирната стена е висока 66 m (217 ft) и е 417 m (1 368 ft) дълга. При 100 % капацитет на язовира стената задържа 121 083 ML (4 276,0×10^6 cu ft) вода с височина 663 m (2 175 ft) AHD. Площта на водната повърхност на язовира е 696 ha (1 720 acres), а площта на водосборния му басейн е 873 km2 (337 sq mi). При затворен преливник язовирът изпълва обем от 10 500 m3/s (370 000 cu ft/s). Наводненията през 1978 г. и 1980-те години довеждат до огромна ерозия на преливника, включително и до образуване на процеп от 19 m (62 ft) дълбочина и 25 m (82 ft) широка в най-горната част на преливника. Извършени са ремонти през 1980 г. за защита на ерозиралата стена. Съоръжението е възстановено в периода от 2006 до 2010 г., в резултат е увеличена мощността на преливника, изградена е стена в преливника чрез разширяване до 17 m (56 ft) максимално), направени са редица други подобрения, за да издържа на екстремни наводнения. През 2016 г., с по-редовен разлив, управляващата язовира корпорация „Айкън уотър“ построява 240-метрова плаваща бариера за сигурност, със специални места за преминаване на плавателни съдове.

Googong Dam

The Googong Dam is an earth and rock-fill embankment dam comprising an adjacent saddle embankment across the Queanbeyan River, located upstream of Queanbeyan in the Capital Country region of New South Wales, Australia. The dam's purpose includes water supply for Canberra and Queanbeyan. The impounded reservoir is called Googong Reservoir. The Googong Dam was created through enabling legislation enacted via the passage of the Canberra Water Supply (Googong Dam) Act, 1974. History A green ban was briefly imposed by the Builders Labourers Federation for a few days until adequate assurances that marine life in Lake Burley Griffin would not be harmed. Location and features Completed in 1977, the Googong Dam is a minor dam across the Queanbeyan River and Bradleys Creek and is located approximately 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) south of the city of Queanbeyan on the lower reaches of the river. The dam was built by Thiess Bros, based on designs developed by the Commonwealth Department of Construction; and is now managed by Icon Water. The main earth and rock-filled dam wall is 66 metres (217 ft) high and is 417 metres (1,368 ft) long. The adjacent earth-filled saddle dam is 13 metres (43 ft) high. When full, the resultant reservoir holds 121,083 megalitres (98,164 acre⋅ft) of water, covers approximately 696 hectares (1,720 acres) that is drawn from a catchment area of 873 square kilometres (337 sq mi). The concrete chute spillway is capable of discharging 4,300 cubic metres per second (150,000 cu ft/s). Successive flood events in 1978 and through the 1980s resulted in extensive erosion in the unlined section of the spillway chute, including a large erosion hole, up to 19 metres (62 ft) deep and 25 metres (82 ft) wide, in the upper part of the spillway chute. Staged remedial works were undertaken in the 1980s to protect the eroded structure. Remediation of spillway facilities occurred from 2006 through to 2010 that resulted in an increase in the capacity of the spillway, construction of walls in the spillway chute extension up to 17 metres (56 ft) high, and a range of other enhancements to meet extreme flood events. In 2016, with more regular spillway overflows and to improve safety for waterway users, Icon Water installed a 240-metre (790 ft) floating safety barrier across the spillway, with a gate for authorised vessel access.
