USEPA Statistical Analysis of Ground-water Monitoring Data at RCRA Facilities – Unified Guidance (USEPA, 2009) and the addendum to that guidance (EPA, 1992) as well as D 6312-98 Standard Guide for Developing Appropriate Statistical Approaches for Groundwater Detection Monitoring Programs. Intra-well monitoring is usually the preferred approach to statistical analysis of groundwater monitoring data as it eliminates the spatial component of chemistry variability from the statistical evaluation. However, intra-well comparisons are appropriate only if it can be demonstrated that wells have not been impacted by site disposal activities. Intra-well is the preferred monitoring strategy when there is: No definable groundwater gradient No pre-existing contamination Too few upgradient wells Radial groundwater flow patterns Low groundwater flow rate (e.g., 50 ft/year) In the semi-annual monitoring reports, the qualified hydrogeologist should assess the potential for sample contamination by examining the results of measurements of the field, lab, and equipment blank samples. It is assumed that any analytes which occur in the field or laboratory, which might add to the concentration of the analyte in the sample, will be picked up by the blank samples and measured. When analytes of interest are found in the blank samples, it indicates the potential contamination of the unknown sample. ASSESSMENT MONITORING Assessment monitoring must be conducted in accordance with 132 Chapter 7 Section 005 if during detection monitoring a statistically significant increase (SSI) over background has been detected and verified for one or more of the detection monitoring program constituents (Figure 1). Examples of assessment monitoring schedule options for a monitoring well are shown in Figures 2 and 3. Conducting assessment monitoring applies to all solid waste disposal areas accepting municipal solid waste, industrial waste, delisted waste and fossil fuel combustion ash. A qualified groundwater scientist or hydrogeologist may propose an alternative monitoring frequency and/or list of parameters based on waste, leachate and site hydrogeologic characteristics in accordance with Title 132 Chapter 7 Section 005.02D and 005.03.

MARK PATTISON: With respect, I take your point about approaching the Attorney-General and we shall go and bother him. In terms of the BSWAT though, this again goes back to the productive part of the Commission, the Commission said that you have a 12 months exemption and then the Commission turns around and says you have to report quarterly on this sort of stuff. They’ve reported quarterly but they haven't provided information which you requested, so in a sense I get the Commission just sitting there not doing anything. It needs to respond on behalf of those 10,000 people with disability in line what it said it was going to do and it is not good enough, I don't think it is good enough personally, to sit there and saying "Oh well, 12 months to play out. These things are happening", because which is what we are always getting, going back to 1986, we’ve been waiting now for how many years. We never get someone standing up on behalf of people with disability saying, this is what we said, this is the line that we have drawn, we are now going to enforce it. We keep on delaying it and relying on others to have the agenda and run with it. RYAN: You have made your view. MICK GOODA: I’m glad that we have got people here who are invested in this and who feel passionate. I thank you for participating in this little bit. There are not going to be too many people doing the talking head thing today so we have a few panels to get through. So can I thank my fellow Commissioners and let's break and have morning tea. Thank you. (Morning tea break 11.23 A.M.) Summary of Survey Results SUSAN RYAN: For this session that will with the discussion of our survey and our survey results and broaden out to other issues we wish to raise. I have a most impressive panel, if I may say so. You are probably familiar with a lot of people there, or you won't all know everyone. But, we have Frank Quinlan, who is the Chief Executive Officer of Mental Health Australia. We have Damian Griffis, who is the Executive Director of
Natural disaster financial assistance for local councils Advice regarding the replacement of essential public assets including betterment and enhancement Please note: SINCE MARCH/APRIL 2015, ANY BETTERMENT PROPOSALS ARE CONSIDERED INELIGIBLE UNDER THE NATURAL DISASTER FUNDING ARRANGEMENTS Restoration or Replacement of Essential Public Assets As a basic principle, the repair and reinstatement of certain essential public assets damaged as a direct result of a natural disaster should be designed to provide the most cost effective solution that complies with relevant Australian building, design and engineering standards. Where this requires different materials or technology than the pre-existing assets, for example replacing a timber bridge with a concrete and steel bridge, this work will be eligible for reimbursement funding, to be cost-shared between the Commonwealth and Victorian Government. Betterment Cost sharing for upgrading essential public assets to more resilient standards is also available and is known as betterment. The ‘betterment’ of an essential public asset was introduced to the Natural Disaster Relief and Recovery Arrangements (NDRRA) in 2007 to reduce recovery and rebuilding costs and encourage increased disaster-resilience in essential public assets. The betterment provision allows State and Territory governments to restore or replace essential public assets to a more disaster resilient standard than their pre-disaster standard. The intent of betterment is to increase the resilience of Australian communities to natural disasters, while at the same time reducing future expenditure on asset restoration, reducing incidents, injuries and fatalities during and after natural disasters, and improving asset utility during and after natural disasters. What assets can be included in a Betterment Application? Under the NDRRA, an essential public asset has been defined as “an asset of an eligible undertaking that the state considers and the Commonwealth agrees: is an integral and necessary part of the state’s infrastructure which is associated with health, education, transport, justice or welfare; and would, if lost or damaged, severely disrupt the normal functioning of a community; and would, if lost or damaged, be restored or replaced as a matter of urgency. Examples of essential infrastructure are roads and bridges, culverts and storm water infrastructure. Examples of betterment projects Examples of projects that might be considered for betterment funding could include:

162 Frank Filardo An individuals story. The individual totally believes the NDIS is the best program ever; viewed from his previous inability to access block funded services to any acceptable level. The individual's current supports were withdrawn from the 30/06/16 The participant is provided with a standard NDIS phone interview "Question and answer" in July. This is followed with a standard Plan. (04/Sep/16 $48000) The Planner take into account the Participant's multiple and complex needs. A plan review is submitted within two days. No Plan Review was provided until Feb/17 (Six (6) months). Also no services were provided during this time even though the Participant had $48000 allocated in his plan. (6 months at $4000/month = $24000. Not one single cent was used) A revised Plan was issued on the 27/02/17 (27/02/17 $65000) The is that the Participant was Not provided with any services from the 30/06/16 even though a Support Coordinator service agreement was signed within three weeks of Plan acceptance. A Support Coordinator's Service Agreement was signed on the 14/03/17. Now, it took fourteen (14) days to set up an appointment and sign an agreement (without which one can Not access support services). It has taken another fourteen(14) days to arrange a time with the support coordinator, that takes us to the 27/03/17. Still no support services arranged or accessed. That is, one month at $5400/month + $24000 = Totalling $29400 of NDIS unspent support services funding due to the NDIA created Barriers and the Participant inability to access his funds. The unanswered question is:- "What happens to this Participant's unspent funding?" The NDIS Participant's creed of "Independent, Choice and Control". Where is it?

Comrade SK Senthivel, General Secretary of the New-Democratic issued the following statement on behalf of the Party on the passing away of SD Bandaranayake former MP for Gampaha. Former Member of Parliament SD Bandaranayake who was a voice of democratic and progressive forces in Sri Lanka and an upholder of positions supportive of the left passed away on 3rd June 2014 at the age of 98 years. The news of his departure saddens the democratic, progressive and left forces and toiling masses of Sri Lanka. SD Bandaranayake who was elected to parliament in 1956 remained a consistent democratic progressive, a supporter of the left, and a courageous activist inside and outside parliament. When members of the UNP led by JR Jayawardane went on a march to Kandy in 1957 to oppose the Bandaranayake-Chelvanayakam Pact, claiming that the agreement designed to grant Tamils their rights was a secessionist move, SD Bandaranayake took the initiative to mobilize people to obstruct the march at Imbulgoda on the Colombo-Kandy road in the Gampaha electorate and force the UNP to retreat to Colombo. SD Bandaranayake himself lay across the road as an act of protest. During the struggles in the North in the 1960s against caste oppression and untouchability, SD Bandaranayake spoke in support of the struggles in parliament as well as visited the North to personally express solidarity with the struggling masses. At the time, during a parliamentary debate he dared to quote Lenin that “the parliament was a den of thieves” and declare that the Parliament of Ceylon too was a den of thieves. As a result he was forcefully removed from the House of Representatives and suspended from parliament for two weeks. He always supported the people and their just struggles. As a result he was arrested in 1971 and detained for more than two years. He spoke firmly in support of granting the Tamil people their just rights and campaigned for the rights of workers, peasants and plantation workers. As a result of his above political stand, he was a long standing friend of the Party who continued to maintain his bond with the Party. In a context in which racism and religious fanaticism are wreaking havoc in the south of the Country, his departure is a loss that very much saddens the

Practice guidelines National Disability Insurance Scheme and mainstream services interface About the practice guidelines To ensure people with disability receive the best support, the Victorian Government has developed new practice guidelines to help staff working in mainstream health and community services better understand and work with the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). The guidelines identify best practice for three mainstream service systems: health and aged care children and families specialist clinical mental health services. Guidelines to support staff working in justice, housing and homelessness will be drafted and released later in the year. The guidelines will help frontline staff build knowledge and gain practical skills to improve the outcomes for people with disability who access mainstream services. They are based on a series of case scenarios to provide practical guidance. The guidelines outline the roles and responsibilities of mainstream service system practitioners, local area coordinators and National Disability Insurance Agency providers, in particular support coordinators. Background Victoria is working to build an inclusive community where people with a disability are supported and empowered to make choices and reach their potential. This includes rolling out the NDIS which is a once-in-a-generation reform. This means all Australian governments, non-government organisations, business and the wider community have a role to play. The way the NDIS will work with mainstream service systems is governed by a set of principles that define funding and practice responsibilities. Consistent with these principles, community and health services will be required to work closely with the NDIS to plan and coordinate care for clients. Victoria has historically had a range of formal and informal arrangements between disability and community service and health systems to support collaboration and achieve the best outcomes for shared clients. The approach needs to be updated with the introduction of the NDIS which is why the Government has developed the practice guidelines. The guidelines have been developed in response to feedback from frontline staff, and in consultation with front line staff, the NDIA and the Department of Health and Human Services.

To ensure quality of service provision, that support elements and pricing be reviewed for psychosocial disability support to ensure that staff are able to receive a reasonable level of training and professional supervision. Recommendation 14: Adopt a national accreditation standard and negotiate across jurisdictions to mitigate the likelihood that States will require different accreditation for State-funded programs incorporating Disability and Mental Health standards. Recommendation 15: Sole or micro providers must sign up to a Code of Practice and that mechanisms are in place to do spot audits. Recommendation 16: Fund “pre-planning” experts skilled in connecting and building rapport with complex community to ensure this cohort does not “slip through the cracks” and end up in acute/emergency settings through lack of engagement. Quality and effectiveness of these services should be audited alongside “post plan” service providers. Provider Registration The MHCSA supports national quality and safeguarding arrangements, however these should reference Mental Health Standards in addition to Disability Standards where services are provided to a person living with a psychosocial disability. All providers must meet these standards regardless of whether they are a large, small or sole provider. MHCSA supports option 3 as a minimum and option 4 preferred (eg for larger providers) from the summary of options for registration (p32). It is imperative that NDIS service providers offer a consistent and high level service. This may require support for small and sole providers such as accreditation preparation workshops, assistance with compliance, incident reporting and management etc. There have been significant gains in developing the mental health workforce and this should not be lost so we ensure that NDIS participant receive a professional and caring service. All staff providing psychosocial support services should have a minimum qualification such as Certificate 4 in Mental

People with disability and their families, carers and support networks are encouraged to start preparing for the NDIS planning process now. The NDIS planning process starts once an individual has been told they are eligible to participate in the NDIS. To prepare for the planning process it is a good idea to start thinking about all the supports currently received as well as future short and long term goals. This may include things like: living arrangements, now and in future learning, training or further education opportunities work aspirations strengthening personal relationships with family and friends Yooralla has developed a number of planning resources that are available for free.
