A total of $1.34 million has been awarded across four regional airports in the second round of the federal government’s Regional Airports Program, specifically to improve their aerial firefighting capabilities.
The federal government has just released the airports that have been awarded grant funding for upgrades in the second round of the $100 million Regional Airports Program (RAP).

Under the RAP’s second round of grant offerings, nearly $30 million was provided to a total of 89 regional airports and their operators for necessary repairs and upgrades.
Of the 89, four in particular have been granted funding in order to better support local firefighting efforts, after Australia last year saw its worst bushfire season in recent history.

Introduction of annual permits for non-desexed cats and dangerous/restricted dogs

Date Time
Introduction of annual permits for non-desexed cats and dangerous/restricted dogs
The NSW Government is introducing annual permits for non-desexed cats and restricted and dangerous dogs as part of its commitment to promoting responsible pet ownership and improving animal welfare standards.
From 1 July 2020 owners of cats not desexed by four months of age will be required to pay an $80 annual permit in addition to their one-off lifetime pet registration fee.
This will create a stronger incentive to desex cats, which in turn will improve their health and wellbeing, including reducing the risk of some cancers.
Improving desexing rates will also ease the burden on pounds and shelters, reduce euthanasia rates, and help to address concerns about feral, stray and roaming cats and their effect on wildlife.

Water discoloured but safe to drink

Date Time
Water discoloured but safe to drink
Some Albury homes and businesses are continuing to experience discoloured water flowing from their taps. Although the water may be discoloured, our extensive testing and sampling program shows the water remains safe to drink.
AlburyCity is working closely with NSW Health to maintain a stringent testing regime to ensure safety remains uncompromised.
The discolouration has been caused by conditions in Lake Hume, from where AlburyCity’s raw water supply is taken.
The water is sourced from a deep point in the lake where a phenomenon called ‘stratification’ means the water at that point is very cold and low in oxygen. The low oxygen causes an increase in manganese and iron levels, which causes the discolouration.

NRL Trial Game for Albury

NRL Trial Game for Albury
In a major coup for local rugby league fans, the Melbourne Storm and Newcastle Knights will play their one and only trial match at Albury Sports Ground next weekend.
After the Newcastle Knights deemed the travel risk too high under the current COVID environment to travel to Melbourne, Albury will become the beneficiary of the reschedule.
Storm CEO Justin Rodski says while it’s disappointing for their members and fans in Melbourne, it’s an opportunity to say thanks to the Albury community.
“It’s important that our players get the chance to prepare as best they can for the season ahead which is why we will travel to Albury for the trial,” Justin explained on melbournestorm.com.au
