Myall Masters host tenth annual swim meet

By Thomas O'KEEFE MYALL Masters Swimming Club successfully held its tenth annual masters swimming meet at the Tea Gardens Pool on Saturday 10 February.

Clubs from across NSW, 23 in all, were represented by a record 165 swimmers, with flags and banners under marquees as the weather threatened rain and howling wind from the start.

“Despite early weather challenges it was an outstanding success, mainly due to the magnificent efforts of the

TEA GARDENS

Introducing this stunning family home in picturesque Tea Gardens. This immaculately maintained modern house is perfect for those who love to entertain and enjoy a spacious lifestyle. Undoubtedly one of the most amazing features of the property is its expansive covered outdoor entertaining area, complete with swimming pool.

Labor’s proposed Offshore Wind Farm will have a massive negative economic and environmental impact on our local area. It doesn’t need to happen. I’ll continue to oppose it in Parliament!

Myall Masters host tenth annual swim meet FROM Page 1 26 volunteer officials,” Club Captain Steve Rees told NOTA. “The wonderful Y staff kept the pool and surrounds looking superb, the Lions Club provided their delicious and much appreciated BBQ, and our wonderful club members worked tirelessly before and during the day to ensure a first-rate swimming experience and fun day for all competitors.

“Highlights included the masterclass swimming performances of Luke Rochester and Christine Sefton, setting four Club records in their four winning swims, both coming first in their respective age groups, and both superbly anchored their relay teams.

“Luke set the tone in his first race, the 100m Freestyle, with a time of 1m 04s, which Christine matched in terms of performance swimming the 25m Breaststroke in 18.84s."

Linda Stubbs won her age group, whilst Sharon Taylor placed second and Steve Rees placed third in respective age groups.

“The quality of the training was reflected in the excellent performances of all our swimmers - David Kelly was outstanding in his first swim-meet and Lidia Izquierdo, Shirley Darch and David Olsen made successful returns to competition.”

The meet’s victors were Warringah with 690 points, while Myall Masters finished a creditable third with 569 points, just pipped for second by Port Macquarie by one point.

“As evidenced by the results, Myall Masters swimmers have seen a marked improvement in their technique and fitness within this season,” Mr Rees declared.

Major explosion prevented during Bucketts Way blaze

By Thomas O’KEEFE

BUSHFIRES converged on The Bucketts Way last week, triggering a task force of Rural Fire Service (RFS) volunteers from across two districts to tackle the blaze over 3, 4 and 5 February.

Two separate fires started in state forest along The Bucketts Way on Saturday 3 February, but with strong winds that night they converged into a singular inferno.

While Lower Hunter RFS District firefighters had battled the blaze from Saturday morning, a further wind change predicted for Sunday afternoon necessitated a strike team from the Mid-Coast District to form and assist.

“We joined around 200 firefighters, at least 30 vehicles from multiple brigades, coming at it from three different directions,” Pindimar-Tea Gardens RFS Brigade Captain David Bright

q The Pindimar-Tea Gardens Rural Fire Service assisted the inter-District strike force battling the Bucketts Way blaze.

told NOTA. “The fire was threatening towards Limeburners Creek; at 6pm Saturday it was 130 hectares, by lunchtime Sunday it was 800ha, ending up around 1000ha.”

“Our brigade was the first to arrive from Mid-Coast.

“We got called to help out a dozer that was fire-breaking, but had become under risk,” Captain Bright recounted.

“We had about three minutes to get in and protect it, also preventing a semi-trailer parked on the road from exploding into a hazardous vehicle-fire.”

Other blacking-out efforts across the four sectors also helped cordon the inferno.

“Although firefighting efforts carried on into Monday, some fortunate rainfall on Tuesday really helped us out.”

Smoke from the Bucketts Way blaze was reported as far away as Newcastle and even Sydney, combining with that from other fires at Shallow Bay, Wallis Lake and Anna Bay and billowing out along the coast.

The Bucketts Way was subsequently closed from 3pm Sunday afternoon, remaining so until Monday morning.

Does renovation work count as a contribution for family law property division

In the recent matter of MacKinnon & Talbot the Court had to consider what impact renovation work had in determining the property division.

The de facto wife said that she brought around $485,000 into the relationship in the form of an interest in two properties along with some superannuation; the de facto husband had some minor superannuation, a car and some motorbikes. The parties were together for around 6 years.

During the relationship the wife sold one of her properties and purchased another property which became the parties’ home. For over 10 months the husband then undertook renovation work on that property (ceasing paid employment during that time).

That renovation work was “unsuccessful” and had to be removed by a builder – paid for by the wife. The husband than undertook further renovations to the property – which the wife claimed was largely

incomplete.

Otherwise, whilst the parties were in dispute about other contributions, the Court accepted that they each committed their resources to the relationship.

The trial judge determined that the husband’s contributions were 17.5%.

In coming to that percentage the trial judge ignored the renovation contributions by the husband – having concluded that the work did not add any value to the property.

The husband appealed.

The Appeal Court overturned the decision saying that a contribution is not required to have a positive economic result in order to be taken into account.

Ultimately, with some other issues considered, the Appeal Court determined that the split of property between the parties should be 27.5% to the husband.

“I had to go to Raymond Terrace to get cash because there’s no EFTPOS in Karuah, and also no internet banking,” Karuah Progress Association spokesperson Marion Brown told NOTA. Using ‘Cash Only’ to pay for a meal at Karuah’s Bridgeview Restaurant came as a jarringly unfamiliar experience for many patrons who have become accustomed to using EFTPOS. Large groups of Karuah locals reportedly inundated the Raymond Terrace Telstra shop seeking answers on Sunday, while calls directly to Telstra and NBNCo were met with “Call back in business hours” robo-responses.

“There is an unplanned NBN outage impacting around 1,045 premises (in these areas) due to an equipment fault at the Fibre Access Node in North Arm Cove,” NBNCo Media told NOTA. “Our technicians have been working throughout the weekend and are currently onsite working to restore services as soon as possible.

“We understand unplanned outages can be frustrating and we apologise for the inconvenience.”

The Karuah Progress Association’s Marion Brown said locals are fed up.

“Karuah has been having problems with their phone/internet coverage for a couple of years now and I think we are all fed up – when something like this happens why aren't telcos accessible to the public,

why isn't information put on the radio/TV?” she asked.

“Visitors get so frustrated.

“Customers at IGA are blaming workers because they can't use their cards.

“What happens for locals in an emergency and they can't get petrol to drive to a hospital because their card won't work?”

NBNCo have since stated that the issue impacting North Arm Cove has been resolved.

FIRE and Rescue NSW Tea Gardens brigade has begun its local Pre-Incident Planning (PIP) campaign in and around Tea Gardens and Hawks Nest, visiting several sites already, with more to come.

“Anywhere there is a risk to our people when we respond to an incident, we go in now to assess and log dangers, such as flammable liquids, potential explosives, etc.,” Tea Gardens Fire and Rescue Captain Jim Wisemantel told NOTA. “We ask permission to go in, and have so far done Coles, the service station, the school and both caravan parks.”

The idea is as simple as it is life-saving – enter a given premises now, when things are fine, and take note of any and all identifiable hazards or risks so that firefighters are as informed as possible, should they have to respond to an emergency there.

Fire and Rescue keeps records so that their firefighters can know what to expect at a given location, and they are updated every twelve to eighteen months.

“This lets us know what to expect when we get there in an emergency, if we need to call for backup from Newcastle.

“Industrial areas, for example, can have tyres, oil, oxy acetylene tanks, compressed gases – all these things pose high risk, and may require hazmat or other specialised resources to be approached in a fire.

“There was a model of household washing machine a few years ago that happened to catch fire – there was a recall,

but not everyone sees those.”

The location of a site’s electrical switchboard is also a necessary detail, as isolating it in the event of an emergency could save the life of a first-responder.

By law, certain types of premises must have a manifest out the front of their location, and Fire and Rescue NSW will keep similar information for reference in

their vehicles.

Home safety visits (HSV) are also on the Fire and Rescue agenda.

“We can inspect a household for free, change the smoke alarms for free, and check fire safety plans,” explained Captain Wisemantel.

“Residences can request HSVs, and businesses can seek inspections, too.”

Short-term rentals to be reviewed FACING the lowest housing affordability and availability levels in decades, the State Government has announced a comprehensive review of short-term rental accommodation (STRA) in NSW, with Councils welcoming the decision.

The review will consider the adequacy of the STRA planning and regulatory framework, and options for improvement.

Local Government NSW (LGNSW) President Cr Darriea Turley said councils had been seeking changes to the regulations governing the industry for a number of years.

“LGNSW welcomes the review and looks forward to

direct engagement on behalf of our members on this critically important issue,” Cr Turley said.

“Councils want to have the ability to respond flexibly in this area to balance housing needs as well as the local visitor economy.”

The review will also consider policy options to incentivise the use of vacant property and holiday homes for long-term residency.

Cr Turley said an outcome of the review needed to be returning more of the existing housing stock to the long-term rental market.

"We think this will be the fastest way to provide immediate relief to housing pressures," she said.

While the Government admits the review and potential reform of STRA alone is “not a silver bullet”, the review is seen as an important step towards fixing existing structural issues in the housing market.

“All options are on the table and we are keen to hear from the community on how various aspects of regulatory and revenue measures can be designed to get the best outcome,” Minister for Housing and Minister for Homelessness Rose Jackson said.

“This review will inform our approach to make better use of all forms of housing, including short term rentals, vacant property and holiday

homes.

“This includes looking at ways to move some of this housing to the longterm rental market and to minimise its negative impacts on the housing market as well as what we can do to support homelessness services across NSW.” Locally, Member for Port Stephens Kate Washington said her electorate is in the grip of a “significant housing and homelessness crisis”.

“This is our community’s opportunity to have a say over the future of rules relating to short term rentals in Port Stephens.

“I encourage everyone to have your say.”

In September last

year, a report by the Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) found that short stay accommodation was booming at a time when Australia’s rental crisis was worsening.

REIA President Hayden Groves said that in the March quarter, a total of 133,968 short-stay accommodation places were available in Australia, an increase of 3.7 percent over the quarter and 22.8 percent over the previous year.

In Port Stephens, shortterm rental numbers grew 6.1 percent in one year to 1,423.

“As a crude equation, 133,968 on first glance appears to fill the forecast

shortage of dwellings Australia will face by next financial year of 106,000,” Mr Groves said last September.

“While short-stay accommodation has been an essential part of meeting high demand for domestic tourism accommodation, it is a driving factor behind the rental crisis,” he said.

“The eastern coast of Australia is the predominant provider of short-term accommodation, and where most of the crucial longterm housing is desperately needed.”

“During our Community Conversations last year, it was clear there were several residents in the area concerned about waterway health in the region,” Tanya Cross, Council’s Sustainability and Natural Assets Coordinator told NOTA. “It was a big topic, and this is the perfect opportunity for those people to get involved and have some input.”

The last Community Conversations were held in November, and Council is hoping that more locals from the southern MidCoast Council LGA apply to join the Southern Estuaries Reference Group, fitting quite specific backgrounds.

The Myall River Action Group (MRAG) has welcomed the formation of the group.

“It’s been a long time coming - a recognition of the importance of our estuary system,” MRAG’s Gordon Grainger told NOTA. “MRAG was formed in 2008 when it was determined we had lost our pristine conditions and were facing a future of murky, smelly waters, loss of marine species, etc.

“We needed community and political help to turn the deterioration around and were forced to deal with eleven agencies, before we were successful in achieving the initial dredge operation in 2015.

“It must be remembered that this deterioration resulted from a series of mistakes undertaken by earlier settlers and the then

Council; it is a great step forward to see the recognition given to the importance of our estuary systems.”

Potential members

can view quite specific descriptions of what sort of community members Council is seeking, and complete a nomination form on Council’s

website - www.midcoast.nsw. gov.au/Southern-EstuariesReference-Group.

Nominations close Monday 26 February.

The Hub concept, in simplest terms, is a hyperlocal strategy to be followed during a major emergency, delineating a central address to and from which all communications will be efficiently routed when all other systems have failed.

The Pindimar-Bundabah UHF network trials continue, designed to test the viability of using said devices when the severely limited mobile phone reception inevitably fails altogether.

“The recent trial evacuation at Bundabah was challenging, mainly because there is just one wharf, and its ownership is not clear,” Jo explained.

Jo is also working on a local emergency planningspecific webpage, seeking ways to utilise software to create an effective communications stream, incorporating the ‘Small Communities Supporting Each Other’ program.

Other issues discussed were the significant

population increases during holiday times, and that many residents and visitors have unrealistic expectations about what is possible during a real emergency.

“Follow the messaging, do not gain a false sense of security that you can stay – get out when told to get out,” Stroud SES Deputy Commander Greg Snape aptly summarised.

“It is not a matter of if, but when an emergency occurs, and emergency services resources can’t assist everybody, so people have to take responsibility and realise they are living in the bush now.”

The need for all local residents to be informed and responsible, is, indeed, the whole reason for the EPG’s formation.

Non-local EPG members were impressed to see the depth of local knowledge that locally-based representatives had, those being mostly from the local emergency services.

Waterway health call SOUTHERN estuaries of the MidCoast Council area are the focus of a renewed call for specific community representatives to form a new reference group in the Local Government Area.

The region specified includes Wallis, Myall and Smiths Lakes, Karuah River, North Arm Cove, Kore Kore, Khappinghat Creeks and Black Head Lagoon, with Council compiling a new ‘Southern Estuaries Reference Group’.

Council’s goal is to develop a Coastal Management Program (CMP) to “provide strategic direction for future management of the Southern Estuaries and their catchments”.

q The sand island that has recently emerged in the middle of the Myall Estuary will likely be of concern for the proposed Southern Estuary Reference Group.

Emergency planning group make strides

By Thomas O’KEEFE

THE first quarterly meeting for the Myall Way Emergency Planning Group (EPG) was held on Thursday 15 February at Hawks Nest Community Hall.

Representatives from government and emergency services organisations attended, including the Rural Fire Service (RFS), State Emergency Service (SES), Fire and Rescue NSW, Red Cross, Hunter Local Land Services and the NSW Reconstruction Authority.

“Perhaps the most beneficial aspect of the Myall Way EPG is the prospect of improved communication across all groups, not remaking the wheels, but attaching all the wheels to the same vehicle,” group chair Jo Pearce told NOTA. The main topics covered were the development of a Bundabah 'Hub', a PindimarBundabah UHF radio network, and a new local website.

History buffs honoured with life membership

q Diane Burns and Irene Worth collect their life membership from Bulahdelah Historical Society President Kevin Carter (centre).

By John SAHYOUN

THE BULAHDELAH Historical Society recently celebrated two long-serving members by awarding them life membership.

Such an honour is bestowed not only for long term membership to an organisation, but more importantly for significant contributions made.

Irene Worth and Dianne Burns were presented with their certificates by Bulahdelah Historical Society President Kevin Carter for service of twelve and 20 years respectively.

“We have a life membership that recognises people that have really done an important role within the society,” said Mr Carter.

“It has to be at least an extended ten years and it has to be of significance to the society,” he said.

Irene’s mother was also a life member of the Society.

“I used to bring my Mum and my Auntie up here to the meetings and then I’d go and stop with Dad and come back for an hour and pick them up,” Irene Worth said.

“My Mum said: ‘You might as well come to the meeting because it won’t go too long’.

“I could see that she was making sure that I was going to follow in her footsteps, so that’s how I became a member.

“Hopefully I’ll continue for quite a few more years.”

Diane’s road to involvement with the Society began rather differently.

“I initially was required to do fifteen hours of service as part of the Newstart program,” Diane said.

“After that I continued because I enjoy history.

“I’ve always wanted to be involved and I have learned a lot about all the local history and the families that made up our community.”

Over the years both Irene and Diane have undertaken many Society activities including collecting material, running street stalls, collating historical items and more.

The new life members told NOTA that historical societies had an important role to play in the preservation of local histories as much information is lost from one generation to the next.

If you would like to find out more about the Society’s activities and events, contact the president on 0458 021 006.

A celebration of St David’s Day

q We may never know if Brian actually can correctly pronounce this unpronounceable Welsh town name with 58 letters. Photo: Collins Dictionary.

By Thomas O’KEEFE WELSH culture will be spotlighted on St David’s Day, Friday 1 March, with special celebrations by Welsh immigrants and descendants alike across the Myall Coast.

St David’s Day is traditionally dedicated to the patron saint of Wales, who died in 589 AD, and is a day to honour Welsh culture and heritage.

“Here we are, living in ‘New South Wales’, but how many NSW people know anything about Wales (UK)?” asked Brian Jones, a Welshman and Myall Coast Radio (MCR) presenter, who will be hosting a special Walesspecific show on MCR at 8pm on

6 MYALL COAST NEWS OF THE AREA

Sunday 25 February, and again on 1 March at 11am.

Brian hails from a small Welsh former coal-mining valley called ‘Gilfach Goch’, which means ‘Little Red Valley’, and was the setting for the famous Welsh book and film ‘How Green Was My Valley’.

A visit back there saw the total regeneration of the old mines into beautiful green valleys.

“Something was missing... the ‘heartbeat’ of the coal mine pumps that we grew up and lived with, although the slag heaps are gone.”

“Apart from Hawks Nest, it is the second-best place in the world!” pronounced Brian, who is surely not the only Welshman in the village.

www.newsofthearea.com.au

“Personally, St David’s Day is about family, emphasising one’s Welsh heritage, not so much religious, but getting together.

“I have done a lot of programs with U3A about this, as Wales has such a rich culture and history,” Brian explained.

“On March 1, St David’s Day, it would be great for all ‘New South Welshians’ to join in, and those who had the privilege of seeing a footy match between Wales and Australia at Cardiff Arms Park will be reminded of the glorious singing at the matches.”

The famously long Welsh town name, ‘Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy

rndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch’, which Brian nonchalantly pronounces over a few seconds, even has a delightful song that teaches people how to say it, which Brian will include in the broadcast program.

“Why was NSW named after South Wales, UK? “Can all Welsh people sing?

“Are the Taffies better than Aussies at footy?

“Have there been any Welshborn Australian Prime Ministers?

“Was King Arthur a Welshman?

– profound questions such as these, and more, we will attempt to answer,” Brian declared.

Stinker’s History: Harry Larcombe Part Two

By John ‘Stinker’ CLARKE Part Two - Harry’s Teeth OVER the years Harry Larcombe became the unofficial ‘Mayor’ of the Island and an increasing number of visitors continued to bring Harry gifts of food, bread, beer, fresh clothes and fishing gear.

On one occasion Harry was presented with a great big, juicy rump steak.

Harry's eyes lit up like a Christmas tree.

A steak!

How fantastic it would be to chew on a beautiful steak cooked on the BBQ. He could just smell it.

There was only one problem - Harry did not have any teeth, he was gummy as a frog and had only chomped on soft food, boiled vegetables, fish, soups and an occasional lobster for many years.

How he would love a steak.

It was the Ward boys, regular island fishermen and

mates of Harry, who took it upon themselves to confront the issue.

One of the boys, Lyle Ward, had the solution and on his next visit to the island carried a box up to Harry’s hut.

The box contained 60 sets of false teeth!

Lyle had a friend who worked in the city morgue where a large box of false teeth had been gathered as they were of no further use to their previous owners.

The sets of teeth were taken out onto the island and presented to Harry, who enthusiastically commenced trying them on for size.

After trying 40 or so sets, a dejected Harry, whose gums were starting to blister, had all but lost hope when to his sheer delight a pair fitted perfectly, as if they had been made for him.

The teeth were to open a whole new world of munching and chewing.

The grateful recipient insisted that he sterilise his

new dentures.

This seemed to Lyle to be rather strange considering that he had just placed more than half a box full in his mouth.

Harry quickly boiled water in a saucepan and dropped his new teeth in.

Three minutes later, to his absolute horror, he placed the dentures on the table, only to see every tooth fall out of the pink plastic gums.

A feverish effort was made to glue the teeth back into the corresponding hole to no avail.

Back to the mush.

It was said that one night in the 1975 big blow, when the sea was enormous and threatening to wash every hut into Esmeralda Cove, Harry was playing darts by the light of a hurricane lamp in ‘Mouldy’ Tarrant’s shack.

Just as he was preparing to throw his final dart, the door burst open and a huge wave washed through the hut.

The massive body of water lifted the flimsy

Another version of the same night tells us that Harry was playing his dog in chess

and the score was one game all when the big wave arrived.

Some say that Harry was about to checkmate the dog, but another story suggests that the dog was about to

Stinker’s Fishin’: Snapper going crackers

By John ‘Stinker’ CLARKE LAST week I wrote that it was the youngest member of the family that generally catches the biggest fish.

In the case of the Grech family, that is not the case.

Father Ray has recently returned from a trip to Broughton Island with a monster 83 centimetre snapper that outweighs

those caught by son Matt.

For those who choose to target the white water or the shallow reefs, snapper are predictable in that they go crackers in a two to three metre sea.

If the sea is thumping the snapper will bite like Hexham Greys.

When the sea settles, the snapper go off the bite.

One day the snapper will bite while the next day,

in the same spot, you will not get a bite.

I have just returned from a couple of days on Broughton where the snapper fishing was fantastic.

Any bait sent down was taken by reddies from one to seven kilograms. The only problems I had were kingfish and sharks which prevented most baits from reaching the bottom.

Among the hoards of rat kingies were a few giants that were unstoppable when hooked.

Of course there is a possibility that this may simply be another Broughton Island fairy tale.

Crab theft a problem.

Never have I experienced so many sharks; mainly schoolies with the odd whaler.

A great trip.

the ability to catch their own crabs choose to steal crabs from those who can.

Working under the cover of darkness the thieves lift traps and shake out the crabs, which in some cases are sold on the black market.

A similar problem exists in the lobster industry.

Commercial crabbers who earn a living trapping crabs are particularly affected.

I did notice an excellent warning sign at Smiths Lake that would be appreciated at Taylors Beach, Soldiers Point, Lemon Tree and Karuah.

Lions Shed finished at last

q The new Tea Gardens Lions shed, complete with official sign and fencing, at the Industrial Estate.

By Thomas O’KEEFE

THE Lions Club of Tea Gardens finally has its purpose-built storage shed, complete and ready to be used by the famous local community services organisation, formally announced on Tuesday 13 February.

The old 40-foot metal storage container that previously passed for a shed has been cleared and done away with, replaced by the new 6.6-by-six-metre shed in the Tea Gardens Industrial Estate.

The shed was mostly

funded by a Foundation for Rural & Regional Renewal (FRRR) grant of $23,000, with the Lions filling in the balance of final costs.

MidCoast Council offered some rentable land in the Industrial Estate, and local contractors including concreter Corey Davies, and Simon O'Brien’s earthworks, were involved in making the site buildable, while many Lions members assisted with the fencing.

“We have racks for the big portable stage, thankfully welded together by the nearby Men’s Shed, and space to park both our famous BBQ trailers out of the elements,” Robert Dorman, co-ordinator of the project, told NOTA. “The old container was very frustrating, especially backing the trailers in - whatever you wanted up behind them became unreachable,” Robert explained.

“Councillors pushed it through, said to find somewhere to get a proper storage shed, and after pushing for two years we now have a safe and secure site, much easier to work out of.”

The Lions’ versatile sixby-three metre stage has

seen a lot of use in service of the community, such as at the Lions Australia Day Breakfast, the recent Myall Masters Swimming Meet, and soon to be at the Singing Bridge 50th Anniversary in

April, among many more upcoming events this year.

transition and can start immediately to upskill industry, with training modules ready to be rolled out.

The next step is organising industry events, workshops, and placing materials online.

The recruitment process for new roles under the plan is currently underway and the NSW Government will immediately recruit Varroa Development Officers (VDOs) who work directly with beekeepers to increase their ability to manage Varroa.

The VDOs will develop, train and maintain a network of volunteer beekeepers who will monitor hives for the presence of Varroa and provide information on the

spread of the mite.

Additionally, the response will employ a Pollination Industry Coordinator (PIC) to assist the pollination dependent industries to better understand and manage their needs.

“The plan will see Varroa Development Officers employed nationally to help drive on the ground support for beekeepers dealing with this pest for the first time, which will be welcomed by all I am sure,” Australian Honey Bee Industry Council CEO Danny Le Feuvre said.

Minister for Agriculture Tara Moriarty said the NSW Government will immediately roll out resources, information, support and

training for beekeepers and pollination reliant agriculture sectors.

“We will work closely with industry at this critical time and deliver programs that enhance the health and robustness of NSW’s beekeeping industry,” she said.

“Australia is the last major honey producing country in the world to get Varroa mite, and we are using international experience and science in understanding how best to prepare beekeepers and the beekeeping and pollination reliant industries.”

Varroa mite management plan approved A PLAN to move from Varroa mite eradication to management has been approved.

The Varroa Mite National Management Group, composed of State and Federal governments, as well as beekeeping and pollination industry representatives, has unanimously agreed on the next phase for biosecurity management of the mite.

Varroa destructor is an external parasitic mite that attacks European honey bees and the Asian honey bee (Apis cerana).

The mite, thought to be one of the greatest threats to our honey and honey bee pollination plant industries, attaches itself to the bee and

feeds on them, weakening them and killing colonies.

European honey bees infested with varroa are likely to die within three to four years if left untreated.

The mite also transmits honey bee viruses.

Following an initial detection of a Varroa mite incursion at the Port of Newcastle in June 2022, and further detections in the Hunter, Central Coast, Sydney, the Mid North Coast and further afield, attempts to eradicate the mite eventually turned to plans for managing the threat.

On 19 September 2023, the National Management Group – the peak decisionmaking body for the national

varroa mite emergency response – made the decision that eradication of Varroa mite was no longer achievable.

The aim of the new ‘Transition to Management Plan’ is to increase resilience and minimise ongoing impacts of Varroa mite for the bee industry and pollination reliant industries.

The Australian Government, state and territory governments and sixteen industries have committed to share up to $100 million of the costs of the response to date and transition to management activities.

Be aware of tree dangers

By Thomas O’KEEFE

FALLING trees have become a clear and present danger that all residents need to keep front-of-mind, and recent weather fluctuations have only exacerbated the situation.

Storms, high winds, and the volatile mix of dry weather, boring insects and water-hungry eucalypts create problems that mostly go unseen, until a giant limb suddenly drops, taking power lines, cars,

and possibly people with them.

“If we end up in drought, which looks like the case in Tea Gardens/Hawks Nest and Pindimar/Bundabah, the trees themselves become stressed, hence more prone to insect infestations - white ants, borers, etc,” Stroud SES Deputy Commander Greg Snape told NOTA. “Then rains return, the trees suck up more water weight, and the timber fibres have

weakened significantly, leading to limbs dropping, exacerbated by high winds and storms.

“Gums tend to drop limbs anyway, it’s the nature of the beast, but particularly a tree anywhere near a structure, fences, etc, people need to be aware of these trees’ natures.”

Deputy Commander Snape added that paving around trees, excavations in the vicinity of their 'dripline' (the radius to

“Be aware that trees evolved in natural environments, Tea Gardens/Hawks Nest is a sandy soil, but the water table here is brackish, so tree roots spread out rather than go really deep.

“On Pindimar’s ridges, the rocky, hard soil means trees are shallow-rooted, and can end up with very large root-ball wrenching out of the ground.

“The lesson is: you've got to maintain your trees – make yourself aware of insurance liabilities of a tree next door, be aware of the hazards presented by trees where you live, check your insurance, and perform regular maintenance,” Deputy Commander Snape reiterated.

“Do a visual inspection, get arborists in to take a look, don't do it yourself.”

Gum tree leaf litter, which can accumulate rapidly upon rooftops and in gutters, also present a major fire hazard if left unattended for too long.

Wildlife volunteers suffering abuse

By Thomas O’KEEFE

WILDLIFE across the Myall, Port Stephens and surrounds have been helped out by a group of volunteers known as WINC (Wildlife In Need of Care) since 2013.

Covering Port Stephens and the Myall Coast, as far as Bulahdelah and Stroud, the 100 percent volunteer group work around their day jobs, travelling long distances to answer calls to help out “everything native”, from kangaroo joeys to raptors and flying foxes, even echidna puggles.

“Macropods (kangaroos, wallabies), birds and possums are currently the animals we see most,” Lisa, Vice President of WINC, told NOTA. “The main goal is the rescue, rehabilitation and release of native animals.”

Lisa’s list of the many furry beneficiaries of WINC assistance is topped by birds, then macropods and possums, and reptiles, the occasional echidna, bandicoots, antechinus, planigales and phastigales.

WINC’s method involves

taking care of the animals, later taking them to a ‘soft release’ site, but they can come and go as they want, and often return to the place they were cared for.

WINC has no association with any level of government, nor the better-known WIRES group.

“We pay for most of the stuff out of our own pocket, especially petrol is expensive,” Lisa explained, noting how some local fundraisers and deceased estate wills have given generously to other groups,

erroneously expecting those funds to make their way to WINC. “Tea Gardens’ Galleries in the Gardens does an annual fundraiser, and it really helps.”

Nat answers the majority of the calls for the small WINC group of carers, but says that sometimes the treatment of volunteers is

Port Stephens local rides for mental health awareness ON 5 April, Port Stephens local Ian Kidd will embark on an 1,800km solo bike ride along the east coast from the southernmost part of Australia to Newcastle.

Ian aims to raise muchneeded funds for his local Lifeline centre and create awareness of mental health issues in the Hunter.

"As I embark on this journey I realise it's more than just a personal challenge,” Ian said.

“It's a testament to the indomitable spirit within, a journey of redemption and revelation.”

For the past 20 years, Ian has navigated mental illness, being admitted to mental health facilities on a number of occasions.

"I ride not just for

myself, but for those who continue to fight their battles in the shadows,” he said.

“As I ride, I carry with me the collective support of those who believe in the power of resilience, in the triumph of the human spirit.

"Amidst the chaos, one constant emerged as my beacon of hope: cycling.

“Pedalling through the winding roads became more than just a pastime; it evolved into a vital form of therapy, a lifeline tethering me to sanity.”

Ian is aiming to raise $10,000 for Lifeline Hunter in the hope of covering the cost of 256 crisis support calls.

“Most of the people we deal with are absolutely beautiful, but at least one per day is abusive, rude, obnoxious, feeling entitled because they think we are government-funded, but we are not.

a vet in January as a direct result,” Nat explained sadly.

“We're here because we care, we don't have a callcentre, we are here in the community, helping to take on as much as we can and be a part of the community, too.

Housing debate THE one issue all Governments say needs correcting is housing.

When we mere mortals look at the realities of the present housing crisis, we must be reminded of a well-known statement: “To steal ideas from one person is called plagiarism but to steal from many people is called research”.

Finding possible answers for the housing crisis is an incredibly complex problem.

The throw away answer to solve the crisis is to build more homes.

An obvious solution, however so far no one has come up with any credible way of achieving this.

Applications to build new dwellings are reported by most Councils to be declining.

Carmel B.

OUT of all the different gym personalities, the equipment hog is one of the most annoying, but there are many others.

A gym workout consists of strategic manoeuvres, and that's before you even start exercising.

It's a bit like federal politics.

There's always someone like Barnaby Joyce, falling off a bench and

swearing like a trooper.

Or a Bob Katter personality who pivots from machine to machine with no one able to keep track of where he's going.

Then you've got the Pauline Hanson 'please explain' types who stall group sessions with their inane questions, and the Scott 'I don't hold a hose, mate' Morrison personalities who refuse to put their equipment away or wipe down their bench.

Don't let them bully you, though, Carmel.

Everyone is an equal in a gym and no one has more or less right to the equipment.

If you've arrived in time to get the bike positioned in front of the fan, and you've already adjusted the bike height, clipped your cycling shoes into place, and positioned your water bottle, then stay put.

Don't offer any feedback or solution.

A shoulder shrug is very effective (and also a great pre-workout stretch if exaggerated). Just hope she doesn't take the bike next to you.

A sweaty nearby spinner is on par with dancing in the summer rain.

The number of home builders is also declining, as many are just shutting shop or moving into bankruptcy because they can’t achieve a profit.

Homes to be built on a fixed price contract are simply not profitable business for the builders due to the rapidly rising cost of materials plus the shortages of labour.

Both are being outstripped by the speed and size of price increases, plus the demonstrated shortage of materials, all of which lengthens the time of the build and limits the ability of the client to fund their project.

Unfortunately, it all gets even worse, because the political push is for public and affordable housing.

We assume that public housing is mostly for people who use part of their social security income to pay the rent.

The best outcomes we hear publicised in the media say a minimum of 35 percent of that income is used to pay the rent but, in many cases, this becomes well over 50 percent of their income depending on location.

Whereas public housing is provided

by Governments, affordable housing is provided by investors, who obviously don’t do it for free.

They need to make a financial return on their investment, which is most often

funded by bank loans.

So how do these investors achieve a return for risk on that investment? They need to obtain a rental figure that not only covers their bank loan repayments but provides an amount for necessary repairs and maintenance plus any down time when the premises are empty or under repair.

Increasing costs equate to higher establishment prices, which then require higher rates of return in order for the investment to make financial sense.

Obviously, this isn’t of any advantage to the renters who are already stressed with their present situation.

So, new and more costly homes are simply not going to help these people in need, even if that could increase the overall supply.

With Governments already providing social security income for many public and affordable housing clients, it is easy to imagine their reticence to subsidise the construction and maintenance of low

value, higher priced but necessary housing.

Governments’ interest in supplying more of these dwellings is already being met with public push-back from existing residents who do not want so-called socially or economically challenged people moving into their neighbourhood.

Yes, it is confusing.

So far no one has been able to explain how public and affordable housing can be achieved in the present or future time.

No one knows how to find more builders and staff for construction.

We all hope that materials will become more available when transportation issues are resolved.

The financial implications for funding these activities are not obvious without more subsidies and I don’t know if the taxpayers want to contribute more funds from their already meaningful tax burdens in order to fund them.

strategic financial decisions for our community.

We will be reviewing our fees and charges to ensure they are commensurate with the services provided, looking at our costs and expenditure and what we will be delivering in our works program for the year.

We also set the direction of the organisation’s focus for the 2024-25 year to guide staff with their delivery of services to the community.

For this year our focus areas are: customer service, local and regional roads, financial sustainability, economic development, climate actions, culture and development assessment.

This forward planning is a key part of the role of Councillors and we will be meeting on an almost weekly basis to guide this process and are committed to

supporting a balanced budget that delivers services to our community.

We will also be reviewing our LongTerm Financial Plan because we need to be financially sustainable into the future.

Cost shifting At the most recent Council meeting I tabled a Mayoral minute that called on the issue of cost shifting from the State Government to be addressed.

The motion received the support of Councillors who resolved to write to the Premier, NSW Treasurer, and the NSW Minister for Local Government requesting them to urgently address the issue.

Over the last decade the State Governments have continued to pass costs that were previously borne by them onto local Councils This is increasingly eroding Council budgets with costs like the State Emergency

Services Levy, the State Waste Levy and the reimbursement of only 50 percent of the mandatory pensioner rebates.

The passing on of State costs to Councils puts the financial sustainability of local councils at risk and limits their capacity to deliver grassroot services for the community and vital local infrastructure that is declining across the state - notably like the local road network.

This motion followed the release of a cost shifting report produced by independent consultants.

It revealed for the 2021-2022 financial year an amount of $1.36 billion was passed on to Council ratepayers in that year.

That figure represents an additional $460 for each ratepayer across the state each year.

Tea Gardens Men’s Bowling Club News

By John SLATER

14 FEBRUARY The Tea Gardens Fishermen’s Co- Op kindly sponsored this week in bowls.

The hot humid weather continues but that did not deter 38 bowlers attending.

It was nice to have the grass green back in play for the first time this year.

As expected, it was slow, but it will get better with more use.

The morning game was decided by the Highest winning margin.

Craig Bengston, Greg Smith, Ross Clews (a visitor from Charlestown) and Noel Jackson won by a margin of 9.

The afternoon game was cut short by the hot weather, but the Lowest winning score decided the result and Kev Barbie, Barry Goode and Ian Baker were the winners with a score of 7.

The Garden Eatery voucher was won by Barry Goode. Our thanks to the Garden Eatery for their support.

The Mid-week pennants started today and with some

good news, Div 3 played Charlestown at Charlestown and won 34 – 32 Div 4 played Karuah at home and won 56 – 22.

Hawks Nest Ladies Golf

By Dianne BOWES

THE first Tuesday Competition Medal Round for 2024 was played on the 13th February. A good field of 46 players contested the round in 3 grades, with the lowest nett scores determining the winners in each division. Playing conditions remained hot

and humid for today’s round, which sapped the stamina as the ladies made their way through 18 holes of stroke play.

Results for Tuesday 13th February 2024 A Grade: 1st Liz Ross with an excellent 72 (highest score of the day); 2nd Annie Benton 75; 3rd Maxine Mitchell 76 C/B.

quite a few ladies who scored chip ins, including Marguerite Miller with 2, Deb Dummett and Tanya Sinclair. However, it was our Ladies President Deb Matheson who took the honours, with an amazing chip in to come back from the brink of disaster on the par 3, 10th hole. After misfiring her 1st shot, Deb found herself on the men’s tee box at the 11th. Her attempt to chip over the trees and onto

the 10th green ricocheted off a branch and came back at her. But her 3rd shot with a pitching wedge saw her chip 50 metres high over the bunker and into the hole without even touching the sides. Play of the day, Deb! Congratulations to all of our winners today. Well done to all our ladies, for your participation in arguably the most challenging (and unforgiving!) format of the month.

Bulahdelah Golf Club News

THE ladies played their first NSW Medal round on a hot Wednesday 14th and the winner was C.Richards with

Hawks swoop into training

76nett from M.Reinhard with 77nett. No NTPs and the jackpot carried over.

The Vets played a Stableford on Thursday 15th and the winner was A.Jobson

with 39pts from J.Parnell with 38pts and B.Newton with 35pts. NTPs P.Norman and G.Leahy while G.Willadsen grabbed the 17th jackpot.

It was a sad day for the Vets

as they mourned the loss of Chris Nebauer last week – RIP. 36 golfers braved another hot, trying day on Saturday 17th, with more than half the

players not managing 30pts!

The A Grade winner was A.Gardiner with 36pts from D.Schlenert with 33pts on a c/b from D.Johnston. B Grade winner was J.Slack with 38pts from B.Gleeson with 37pts. Ladies' winner was B.Newton with 35pts from

C.Richards with 33pts. NTPs were A.Gardiner, Al Benson, A.Crick and B.Newton.

Long drivers were A.Crick, D.Schoonhoven, B.Gleeson and A.Benson. Steve South grabbed the jackpot. Monthly Mug next week.

STORY STARTS on BACK COVER, Page 24 The Hawks’ spectacular 2023 season, which saw the side soar all the way into the Grand Final at Lakeside, has no doubt inspired many new players, as well as those returning, to have another solid crack at obtaining the Premiership this year.

“We had a really successful year for the club in 2023.

“We may have lost a lot of experience this season, but that gives younger players the opportunity to step up,” Hawks Coach Chad Redman, himself a veteran of two NRL teams, told NOTA.

SPORT

q Hawks Seniors train during pre-season, reminding each other how to take a tackle, and how gravity works.

“We’re seeing a different dynamic from last year, with some new faces, around six new people, including some returnees who haven't played with the Club for a few seasons.

“They seem to have been attracted by our success last year.”

Recent rains have rejuvenated the Myall Park Oval grass somewhat, and also brought a cooler temperature for the Thursday night training last week.

All Hawks sides were looking fit and strong at

Myall Park on Thursday 15 February, including the Lady Hawks and Myall River Juniors, gathering from 5pm every Tuesday and Thursday, each one visibly determined to ace their upcoming seasons.

A small army of family members and supporters also came along to show support from the nascent Myall Park Sports Complex, while the old Clubhouse sits halfdemolished next door.

Shaq Saunders, who played with the Hawks alongside his father, Ryan,

during last year’s stellar season, and has since signed on to play with the South Sydney Rabbitohs in the SG Ball Competition, was also there for moral support.

Trial games are slated to begin around late March/ early April, alongside the various Myall River Juniors and Lady Hawks Tackle teams.

“We’ve got the potential to match last year's effort, the boys just need to turn up at training and stay committed,” Chad affirmed.

IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN!

EVOLVING VEGAN

SBS FOOD, 6.30pm

The doe-eyed star of the latest live-action Aladdin movie, Egyptian Canadian actor Mena Massoud is also a foodie on a mission: to show the world how magical vegan cuisine can be. Following his cookbook of the same name, the Canadian explores restaurants around North America, devouring yummy things such as butter, pizza, and fried chicken sandwiches. It’s not a traditional cooking show – some viewers might race out to buy his cookbook to piece together a complete meal, while others will simply appreciate the artistry and creativity behind delicious vegan dishes including pastrami sandwiches and Vietnamese-style catfish. The plant-based fun kicks off tonight in Los Angeles.

It’s a sophisticated thriller about family and power that could be set anywhere in the world. Premiering tonight, this gripping six-part story takes place in western Sydney and comes from Ali’s Wedding writer and creator Osamah Sami. It’s personal for Sami, based on his teen years growing up as the son of the head cleric at a Melbourne mosque. Starring Kamel El Basha (Room 207) and Safia Arain (Bump), it’s an immersive view into an Iraqi Australian community and culture, which is rarely represented on screen. We follow a charismatic sheik who is elected as head of The Messenger mosque amid a flurry of controversy involving an innocent selfie and behindthe-scenes payments. Gripping and original.

THIS IS GOING TO HURT

ABC, 9.05pm

Based on Adam Kay’s comical and dark bestselling memoir about his time barely surviving as a fatigued junior doctor in obstetrics, this medical drama stands heads and shoulders above the pack.

It’s an unflinching and funny dive into the frailties of medicine that grabs you and won’t let go. Ben Whishaw (No Time To Die) plumbs the highs and lows of his unforgiving role with a magnetic presence and brutal honesty.

Tonight, Adam’s mental health is sinking, with Erika’s (Hannah Onslow) complaint and guilt bearing down on him. If you haven’t already binged this excellent and sometimes grimly realistic British offering, it’s a prescription to laugh and cry in equal measure.
