This map is one of a series of soil landscape maps that are intended for all of central and eastern NSW, based on standard 1:100,000 and 1:250,000 topographic sheets. The map provides an inventory of soil and landscape properties of the area and identifies major soil and landscape qualities and constraints. It integrates soil and topographic features into single units with relatively uniform land management requirements. Soils are described in terms of the Great Soil Group and the Northcote classification systems. Related Datasets: The dataset area is also covered by the mapping of the Soil and Land Resources of the Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment and Hydrogeological landscapes of NSW. Online Maps: This and related datasets can be viewed using eSPADE (NSW’s soil spatial viewer), which contains a suite of soil and landscape information including soil profile data. Many of these datasets have hot-linked soil reports. An alternative viewer is the SEED Map; an ideal way to see what other natural resources datasets (e.g. vegetation) are available for this map area.

ABOUT WETLANDS: \r Wetlands are a crucial part of the natural environment. Wetlands provide breeding and feeding habitat for waterbirds, fish, invertebrates and plants. Wetlands may be natural or human made. The water in a wetland can be still or flowing, and can be fresh, brackish or saline.\r \r SIGNIFICANT WETLANDS for Unregulated River Water Sharing Plans (Inland NSW): \r These are wetlands have been identified by the department as being suitable for listing under water sharing plans to protect their water from extraction. The wetlands are those that are recognised under the International Convention on Wetlands (Ramsar), are listed under the Directory of Important Wetlands of Australia (DIWA) or have been identified as wetlands that hold water for long periods during dry times, and have ecological values listed under the Murray-Darling Basin Plan. \r \r This data generates an interactive map of wetlands (including lakes and billabongs), considered significant for the purposes of new access and trade rules in inland unregulated water sharing plans. In NSW, all surface and groundwater is managed under water sharing plans (WSPs). WSPs cover large catchments and are subordinate to the Water Management Act 2000. A WSP has rules which protect significant wetlands.\r \r The wetlands were identified through a method developed by the NSW government in 2023. The method does not identify all significant wetlands in a catchment.\r The types of wetlands in this data set are those which have a water body that is persistent for at least a few months following inundation. It does not include other significant wetlands which may be inundated for shorter periods of time but which still have significance due to the vegetation and fauna that rely on that shorter period of inundation.\r \r This data asset can be used by landholders, conservationists and others to understand the location of significant wetlands, for the purposes of new WSP rules. The spatial data asset complements relevant pdf maps of significant wetlands for remade individual inland river unregulated WSPs (available on DCCEEW Department website).\r \r \r PLEASE NOTE: In the case of any discrepancy between this digital dataset and the published Water Sharing Plan (accessible on the www.legislation.nsw.gov.au site) the instrument as made by the Minister remains the authoritative source and should be used to both interpret the intent of the Plan and in subsequent decision making. Best endeavours have been made in collating relevant Water Sharing Plan boundary and attribution contained in this dataset. However, no warranty is provided as to the accuracy or currency of this representation. The department does not warrant and is not liable for the use of this material as per the licenced sharing conditions CC-BY 4.0.\r \r -----------------------------------\r \r Note: If you would like to ask a question, make any suggestions, or tell us how you are using this dataset, please visit the NSW Water Hub which has an online forum you can join.

Abstract

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

Additional Rural Village Land is land zoned R5 large lot residential (or equivalent) that meets defined 'village' criteria. It is proposed that coal seam gas activities will be prohibited in and within two kilometres of these areas.

Important Note: 14/01/2015. Since we generated these spatial layer datasets, the NSW Department of Planning and Environment has published an interactive CSG Exclusion Zone map. Interested parties should go to http://www.planning.nsw.gov.au/en-au/planningyourregion/strategicregionallanduse/coalseamgasexclusionzones.aspx where they can find out more about CSG exclusion zones. The information in the Bioregional Assessment products aligns with the CSG exclusion zones as published by NSW and the subsequent publication of those NSW maps does not alter the information in our assessments.

Purpose

It is proposed that coal seam gas activities will be prohibited in and within two kilometres of these areas.

Do you want to know more about how climate change may impact New South Wales? The Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water has undertaken research to develop climate change information for the NSW public using climate projections from the NSW and Australian Regional Climate Modelling initiative ('NARCliM2.0'). This climate change information is available on the AdaptNSW Interactive climate change projections map (https://www.climatechange.environment.nsw.gov.au/projections-map) as maps and GIS-ready raster data. The Interactive map currently displays data for changes in mean, maximum and minimum temperature, precipitation, hot days, cold nights, and severe fire weather days. This geospatial data available on the Interactive map are accessible below as links to the downloadable data packs. These data packs and the Interactive map have been designed to enhance awareness of climate change in NSW and provide climate change data and information for decision making to support climate risk assessment and adaptation planning. What is included in these data packs? Data packs provide users with 145 GIS-ready raster datasets in GeoTIFF format and layer files (map symbology). The GeoTIFFs display data at 4 km resolution for the entire New South Wales (NSW) region for seven climate variables: • minimum, mean and maximum temperature • rainfall (precipitation) • hot days (35ºC or over) • cold nights (below 2ºC) • severe fire weather days (FFDI over 50) The list of GeoTIFFs include historical baseline and future projections under two emission scenarios, providing modelled outputs on a range of plausible climates: Low emissions scenario (SSP1-2.6) and High emissions scenario (SSP3-7.0) The GeoTIFFs are raster (spatially referenced gridded) data. The data at each 4 km grid cell is calculated as an average from the results of 10 NARCliM2.0 climate models. Temporally, the GeoTIFFs are 20-year climatologies, defined as the "Historical baseline" (the 1990-2009 period represents a ‘2000’ climatology, serving as a reference period for future projections to be compared with), and "Future projections" (seven future periods or climatologies including 2020-2039, 2030-2049, 2040-2059, 2050-2069, 2060-2089, 2070-2089, and 2080-2099). This is an appropriate temporal resolution for understanding plausible climate change trends in the future. The GeoTiFFs are also arranged to provide statistics, including: • Annual means: calculated from 1 January to 31 December for each 20-year period • Seasonal means: calculated for each 20-year period for Summer (December, January, February), Autumn (March, April, May), Winter (Jun, July, August), Spring (September, October, November) Data provided in two ways or flavours: • Absolute values: the projected values for the variable for each period (i.e., degrees Celsius, number of days, mm of rainfall) • Percent change: the difference between the future climatology and the historical baseline, presented as a percentage of the historical baseline Note that a continuous time series of the daily and monthly modelled output can be accessed from the Climate Data Portal https://climatedata.environment.nsw.gov.au/ The data packs also provide, map symbology files (ArcGIS layer files and QGIS layer files) and a “READ ME” file in each data package for more information on the GeoTIFFs. What is NARCliM? The New South Wales (NSW) and Australian Regional Climate Modelling ("NARCliM") is a project that was established by the NSW Government to address the need for high-resolution climate change projections for regional decision-making and impact assessments. The NSW Government has released climate projections for over a decade, with latest release (known as NARCliM2.0), being a public commitment under the Climate Change Adaptation Strategy (https://climatechange.environment.nsw.gov.au/about-adaptnsw/nsw-climate-change-adaptation-strategy) and the NSW Climate Change Fund (https://www.energy.nsw.gov.au/nsw-plans-and-progress/government-strategies-and-frameworks/taking-action-climate-change/nsw). See the resource link below to learn more about NARCliM. What else do I need to know? For more information, please review the linked resources below.
