The Department seeks a suitably qualified Supplier to design and implement a comprehensive Sediment Monitoring Project to : • quantify sediment oxygen demand, from organic and inorganic sources (including known heavy metals contaminants), within Macquarie Harbour • assess sulphur cycling processes within Macquarie Harbour and determine whether sulphur dynamics contribute to oxygen consumption, including characterising sulphur dynamics and their potential influence on benthic oxygen demand • update bathymetric information for key areas, primarily those known to be highly dynamic in nature such as the mouth, of Macquarie Harbour using contemporary multibeam technology to ensure sufficient resolution for environmental modelling and sensitivity analyses, noting that existing data is outdated. • determine appropriate Method(s) (e.g. environmental DNA (eDNA), grab sampling, etc) to monitor the distribution (historic and geographic) and biomass of Maugean skate key prey species, and if feasible and where appropriate, undertake targeted investigations to evaluate prey availability and any changes associated with environmental remediation efforts, and • consolidate environmental datasets relevant to sediment and benthic conditions, by updating the existing datasets with the most recent three years of available information. This Sediment Monitoring Project will support harbour-wide oxygen balance assessments and contribute to understanding the environmental conditions influencing the ...
