Book excerpt: "Aboriginal people have lived in the Pilbara's arid and variable environment for thousands of years: their way of life and system of beliefs are intimately linked to water, on which their survival traditionally depended. Aboriginal people continue to have a strong connection to water. Their beliefs require the traditional owners to regularly perform rituals and to conduct law business at water sources located in their country. Access to water sources is important not only to exercise custodial responsibilities but also for gathering bush-tucker. Water sources of various types also act as boundaries to the countries of different language or tribal groups. Since European settlement in the Pilbara region, Aboriginal people have increasingly experienced problems using water sources in culturally traditional and appropriate ways. The Department of Water is committed to working with Aboriginal people in its planning and management activities. The department recognises that Native Title provides an important framework for water management. Native Title is the recognition in Australian law that some Aboriginal people continue to hold Native Title rights to lands and water arising from their traditional laws and customs. A significant proportion of the Pilbara is subject to Native Title or Native Title claims."--P. viii.

Book Australia s Water Resources

Download or read book Australia s Water Resources written by John Pigram and published by CSIRO PUBLISHING. This book was released on 2007-05-25 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia’s Water Resources seeks to explore the circumstances underpinning the profound reorientation of attitudes and relationships to water that has taken place in Australia in recent decades. The changing emphasis from development to management of water resources continues to evolve and is reflected in a series of public policy initiatives directed towards rational, efficient and sustainable use of the nation's water. Australia is now recognised as a pacesetter in water reform. Administrative restructuring, water pricing, water markets and trade, integrated water resources management, and the emergence of the private sector, are features of a more economically sound and environmentally compatible water industry. It is important that these changes are documented and their rationale and effectiveness explained. This timely work provides an important synthesis of these issues. This revised paperback edition is a fully corrected reprint of the hardback edition.

Book Advancing Regional Water Supply Planning to Develop Robust  Adaptive  Equitable  and Cooperatively Stable Infrastructure Investment and Management Pathways

Download or read book Advancing Regional Water Supply Planning to Develop Robust Adaptive Equitable and Cooperatively Stable Infrastructure Investment and Management Pathways written by David Fredrick Secrest Gold and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globally, urban water utilities are challenged by increasingly severe droughts and growing water demands. In the United States (US), these challenges are compounded by increasing costs of new supply development and aging infrastructure that strain the budgets of local water utilities. Regional cooperation can help utilities face these challenges by improving the efficiency of existing water sources and exploiting economies of scale to reduce the capital cost of new infrastructure investment. When implemented using state-aware rule systems that trigger drought mitigation and infrastructure investment decisions, cooperative strategies have been shown to generate infrastructure investment and management policies that maintain robust performance across a broad array of future conditions. But regional cooperation also generates new challenges for water supply planning. Effective strategies must equitably balance the potentially divergent interests of regional partners, as regional conflict can destabilize partnerships, exposing utilities to new risks. The presence of uncertainty in water supply planning problems heightens these risks by masking sources of potential inequity and instability. These challenges motivate the need for new decision support frameworks to develop robust, equitable, cooperatively stable infrastructure investment and management policies. This dissertation presents new research that advances the development of actionable regional water supply management strategies. The first study introduces methodology for exploring robustness conflicts and measuring the impact of implementation uncertainty on water cooperative water supply portfolios. Applied to a system of four water utilities, this study shows that negotiation strategies can discover regional policies that balance robustness across a group of cooperating partners, but also finds that these policies are highly vulnerable to implementation uncertainty. These results further illustrate how delineating safe operating spaces allows utilities to avoid these vulnerabilities. The second study looks more deeply into the multi-actor dynamics of cooperative water supply planning by introducing Regional Defection Analysis, a new methodology for analyzing the cooperative stability of regional supply partnerships and mapping the power relationships within these systems. Regional Defection Analysis extends the existing DU Pathway Framework. Results from a system of three water utilities highlight how seemingly robust infrastructure investment policies may be vulnerable to cooperative instability, reveal power dynamics between regional partners and suggest methods of reducing conflict within cooperative agreements. The third study builds on Regional Defection Analysis by contributing DU Pathway_ERAS, further developing the DU Pathways framework to explicitly focus on the development of equitable, robust, adaptive and cooperatively stable infrastructure investment and management pathways. When applied to a six-utility regional infrastructure investment planning problem, DU Pathway_ERAS (1) reveals how a priori assumptions about performance priorities can lead to unintended consequences for regional equity, (2) illustrates how regional partners can utilize cooperative power to improve regional robustness, and (3) highlights how system vulnerabilities evolves over time.
