1. Introduction
1.1 History of the Estuary Management Program
The NSW Estuary Management Program (EMP) was established in 1992 to help restore and
protect estuaries along the NSW coast. The EMP is administered by the Department of
Natural Resources (DNR). It targets a broad range of planning and natural resource
management issues and engages local communities in the process of managing the coastal
zone.
The EMP focuses on the sustainable use, conservation, protection, rehabilitation and
improved health of NSW estuaries.
The EMP encourages local communities to take responsibility for managing their own
estuaries. In most cases a local council will form an estuary management committee to help it
manage all of the estuaries in its council area. Of the estimated 130 significant estuaries in
NSW over 75% are managed by these committees. Based on its priorities the committee will
then progressively prepare estuary management plans for individual estuaries with local
community participation.
DNR provides technical and financial support to estuary management committees that are
established by local councils. These committees are made up of representatives from local
government and state agencies responsible for managing the estuary’s resources, as well as
members of the community - local residents, industry representatives, environmental interest
groups and researchers.
These stakeholders work together to identify problems in the estuary, evaluate various
management options, develop specific actions to address those problems and create and
implement a formal management plan to restore and protect the estuary.
1.2 History of Tidal Limits
Historically, tidal limits have been marked on parish maps or topographic maps. They were
generally based on a lands surveyor visiting a site and estimating the limit of tidal influence
on that particular day. However, there was no detail as to how or when the limits were
determined and the information was very sporadic. In some areas many creeks had a tidal
limit marked but in other areas no information on the tidal limit was provided.
MHL1286 - 1
1.3 No Reliable Tidal Limit Data
At the start of the project the only resources available to MHL were an old listing of tidal
limits provided by the Department of Land and Water Conservation (DLWC) and the latest
set of 1:25,000 topographic maps produced by Land and Property Information. The listing
titled Description of Tidal Limits for NSW Estuaries was obtained from the former Lands
Department. It contained the names of four hundred and twenty-three ‘ water features’ , with
a parish and county reference and then a description and file reference. The comments were
often obscure, referring to portion numbers and road reserves, and the files could not be
traced. Some of the water features are now either known by a different name or the name is
now spelt differently.
Therefore, as part of this project cross-references were made between the water features listed
in the Lands Department document, old parish maps and the latest topographic maps to ensure
that this historical information could be included in the current listing in this report. In the
majority of cases the tidal limit was resurveyed by MHL. However, approximately twenty of
the water features listed in this historical document were either too small to justify being
resurveyed or their ocean entrances were not open at a convenient time. In these cases the
data from the original document has been included in this listing but in the date column the
word historical has been used to indicate its origin. As no other information is available for
these watercourses the historical details from the original list have been included in this
report.
The tidal information shown on the topographic maps was also not representative in the
majority of cases. For instance, the tidal limit on the Clyde River is marked on the
topographic map at Shallow Crossing and yet the tidal range at this point is nearly half a
metre on spring tides. The tidal limit is actually 4.2 km upstream from Shallow Crossing. On
the Manning River local knowledge suggested that the tidal limit occurred at Abbotts Falls
but it turned out to be at Basin Ford a further 1.6 km upstream.
1.4 Need to Better Define the Tidal Limit
Around 1995 it became apparent that there was no reliable information to accurately define
tidal limits for all of the NSW estuaries. During this time there was appreciable growth in
community-based estuary management committees preparing and implementing sustainable
management plans with the support of the Estuary Management Program. The lack of
reliable tidal limit information impacted on the ability of these committees to make informed
management decisions. This important data set will also benefit catchment management
authorities, other agencies and institutions, and local communities to better manage and
understand the coastal zone of NSW.
MHL1286 - 2
1.5 Mangrove Limit Definition (Coastal Policy 1977)
A revised NSW Coastal Policy was released in 1997 that provided a new definition of the
coastal zone. Mapping of the coastal zone for tidal waters of coastal rivers was based on the
limit of mangroves, as defined by NSW Fisheries (1985). However, this survey was only
undertaken in a small proportion of NSW estuaries. Therefore, it was decided to also
undertake a comprehensive survey of the mangrove limits concurrent with the tidal limit
survey. It soon became apparent that it was not efficient to try to do both surveys during the
available tides. As a result the bulk of the survey of mangrove limits was undertaken by a
separate field team provided by DNR/DIPNR/DLWC who operated independently from MHL
who retained responsibility for coordinating the tidal limit survey.
1.6 Water Sharing Plans
As part of the NSW Government’s water reform initiative, water sharing plans have been
developed for several highly stressed coastal rivers or water sources. In addition, the
remaining unregulated coastal rivers and streams will be covered by a macro water sharing
plan. For further details refer to the website at www.naturalresources.nsw.au
Water sharing plans establish the rules for sharing water between the environment and water
users, and between competing water users. The water sharing plans, once gazetted under the
Water Management Act 2000, have legal effect for ten years.
The downstream limit of a water source is referred to as the flow reference point. This is the
site where daily flow classes are calculated for the purposes of managing water extraction and
water sharing. Existing water sharing plans have tended to select the tidal limit as the flow
reference point for the water sharing plan.
Opportunistic freshwater extraction from below the tidal limit also occurs in several estuaries.
This body of fresh water usually exists downstream of the tidal limit and upstream of the
mangrove limit, however the exact downstream limit is highly variable depending on
freshwater inflow. Due to its unique characteristics and management issues this area is
considered to be a separate water source often referred to as the ‘tidal pool’. Water extraction
from the tidal pool will be subject to specific flow rules that aim to protect the environmental
health of these unique sections of estuaries.
Detailed information about the location of the tidal limit and mangrove limit will greatly
assist in determining the boundaries of water sources for the purposes of water sharing plans.
1.7 Potential Indicators of Climate Change
Mangrove communities have unique characteristics that make them suitable for use as
potential indicators of changes in coastal conditions, in particular sea level rise associated
with climate change.
Recent studies of mangrove distribution and mortality have shown that these coastal
ecosystems are highly specialised and that minor variations in the hydrologic, salinity or tidal
regimes can cause noticeable changes in their distribution.
MHL1286 - 3
Mangroves occur in intertidal ecological conditions that approach their limit of tolerance with
respect to the salinity and inundation regimes. Mangrove communities will readjust their
distribution to suit the new conditions if the salinity regime changes or the duration of daily
immersion is modified either by sedimentation, subsidence or changes to the tidal range.
Wetland reclamation, soil compaction and groundwater extraction may cause localised
changes in surface elevation or subsidence that will be reflected in the lateral transgression of
mangroves into areas that are predominantly saltmarsh.
The upstream limit of mangrove growth is less likely to be responding to these anthropogenic
effects and therefore provides a unique biological indicator of changed salinity gradients and
tidal regimes due to alterations to freshwater flows, tidal hydrodynamics, entrance
characteristics and sea level rise.
Similarly the location of the tidal limit is likely to migrate upstream as a result of sea level
rise and changes to tidal hydrodynamics. Historic baseline information that determines the
exact location of the tidal limit will enable future monitoring programs to assess the impacts
of sea level rise.
MHL1286 - 4
2. Methodology
2.1 Tidal Limits
In early 1996 Manly Hydraulics Laboratory was approached by what was then the
Department of Land and Water Conservation to undertake a survey of the estuarine creeks
and rivers in NSW to determine their tidal limit.
The aim of the project was to establish a consistent, well-documented survey method that
could be repeated in the future. The end result was to be a database of tidal limits that would
be used as a reference not just for DLWC but for all people and organisations with an interest
in the management of the NSW coastal zone.
2.1.1 Definition of Tidal Limit
For the purpose of this survey a definition of tidal limit had to be adopted and so it was
decided that the limit of tidal influence would be the point along the estuary at which the
water level no longer responded to the ocean tide. Put simply, the most upstream point at
which the water level moved up and down with the tide. This would be the point to which the
ocean tidal influence would ultimately penetrate if there was no (or negligible) freshwater
flow in the system. After a flood event in a major river it may take one to two months before
the freshwater inflow reduced to that of the previous baseflow conditions. In smaller creek
systems, after a flood event it may only take one or two weeks for the restoration of the tidal
limit.
As the intention was to determine the maximum distance of tidal influence upstream it was
decided to only survey on large spring tides at times of low or ‘normal’ freshwater inflow.
Ideally the surveys would have been carried out on only the highest possible tides but this
would have been impractical and greatly extended the time taken to complete the project.
Therefore, the field trips were planned to coincide with predicted ocean tides higher than
1.80 m ISLW calculated from data recorded at the tide gauge maintained by MHL located at
Middle Head in Sydney Harbour. This meant that although a survey may not have been done
on the highest predicted tides (approximately 2.00 m ISLW) the difference would be generally
not more than 20 cm. The actual difference would be less than this by the time the ocean tide
had travelled to the extremities of the estuary. So the threshold of 1.80 m was selected as a
compromise between needing to survey the highest tides and having a useful number of tides
to work with on any one field trip.
MHL has adopted Middle Head as the primary reference station for obtaining and monitoring
tidal data in NSW. MHL provides data for tidal predictions for NSW based on hourly levels
published annually (e.g. NSW Tide Charts 2006). From these tide charts it can be observed
that a 1.8 m ISLW tide will be exceeded some 58 days during the 2006 calendar year. Tidal
planes based on one year’s data (1 July 2001 to 30 June 2002) from the Middle Head station
MHL1286 - 5
are shown in Figure 2.1. The 1.8 m tide used as a basis for the tidal limits in this report is
nearly 0.2 m above the level of Mean High Water Springs (MHWS) shown in Figure 2.1. A
definition of tidal terms is shown in the Glossary at the end of this report. Please refer to
www.naturalresources.nsw.gov.au under NSW Estuaries for further information on tidal
behaviour of NSW estuaries.
2.1.2 Selection of Estuaries to be Surveyed
Initially it was decided to only survey creeks and rivers that were longer than two kilometres
or had a particularly relevant feature. This was generally how the survey was undertaken
although at times shorter, less significant creeks were surveyed because the field crew were
on site and they were easy to include. Occasionally, creeks that were expected to only have a
short tidal length turned out to be tidal for several kilometres.
2.1.3 Field Surveys
Each field trip was planned after checking the available window of suitable tides and then
selecting rivers and creeks in a particular area that met the survey criteria. The historical list
was checked for information and the current topographic map was examined for any
references to tidal limits. Then with all available information compiled the field team
proceeded to the locality. When possible, observations were made of the creek from easy
vantage points such as roads and bridges to check for tidal influence. Local residents were
often encountered and they were sometimes able to provide useful information. Ultimately,
the field team had to assess each creek themselves and make decisions regarding instrument
deployments, in light of all the previously acquired information (and misinformation).
Typically two or three water level recorders would be deployed in each creek, one at a
downstream location where some tidal influence was assured and then a second (and possibly
a third) further upstream where the tidal influence would be somewhat diminished. Figure
2.2 shows a series of photographs taken during the survey of Coolagolite Creek, a tributary of
Nutleys Creek that flows into the Bermagui River on the NSW south coast. All instruments
were downloaded in the field and the water level data obtained, as shown in Figure 2.3. In the
case of Coolagolite Creek the downstream instrument recorded approximately 0.32 m of tidal
range and the upstream one was not affected. So, knowing that the tide had risen 0.32 m
above the present water level at the downstream site, the creek line between the two locations
was inspected for a rise (or series of rises) to determine how far upstream the tide would have
reached. It was decided that it would have very nearly got to the upstream site and so it was
reasoned that slightly higher tides would have extended to the ford on the creek which was
50 m further upstream. Therefore, the ford was identified as the tidal limit in Coolagolite
Creek.
Most creeks only required a set of water level recorders to be deployed for one high tide, but
due to a variety of circumstances some needed several deployments to finalise the location of
the tidal limit. As the prime objective of the exercise was to determine the limit of tidal
influence for each estuary it was not necessary to survey the water level recorders to a
common datum (e.g. Australian Height Datum (AHD)). Therefore, no benchmarks were
placed as part of this exercise.
MHL1286 - 6
2.1.4 Accuracy and Naming Conventions
The stream geomorphology of each river or creek determined how specifically the tidal limit
could be identified. For example, in the case of the Colo, Tuross and Bega rivers their sandy
beds resulted in a less accurate position for the tidal limit and one that will change more
frequently depending on the location of critical shoals. However, in rocky streams the tidal
limit was usually at a very specific rise that will maintain its integrity for much longer.
The names used to identify the 787 rivers, creeks, gullies, canals, drains, lakes and lagoons in
this report have been taken from the 1:25,000 topographic maps of NSW produced by Land
and Property Information NSW (formerly the Central Mapping Authority of NSW). The
names were confirmed with the Geographical Names Board of NSW. In many instances there
were creeks large enough to be surveyed that did not have names. Therefore, a naming
convention was adopted for these by making a reference to the named creek, river, lake or bay
that they eventually joined or an obvious local feature. In cases such as this the adopted name
is shown in parentheses. For example, the creek that flows into the south west arm of Burrill
Lake is referred to as (South West Arm) Creek in the north to south listing in this report and
the unnamed creek that flows into Coffs Creek near Shea Street is called (Shea Street) Creek.
North, south, east, west and main branch have been used for similar reasons and likewise are
always shown in parentheses. This naming convention makes sense when reading through
the north to south listing but would probably not be looked for in the alphabetical listing.
Therefore, a creek such as (Shea Street) Creek was not included in the alphabetical listing but
a creek such as Bull Creek (North) was included.
During the early field trips the locations of the tidal limits were determined by plotting the
location on a map and then reading the coordinates of that position from that map. As the
Global Positioning System (GPS) became available and more reliable, hand-held GPS units
were utilised.
2.1.5 Coordinate System
During the course of the project the official grid used on 1:25000 NSW topographic maps has
been updated from the Australian Map Grid (AMG) to the Map Grid of Australia (MGA).
This was the result of changing the map datum from the Australian Geodetic Datum 1966
(AGD66) to the Geocentric Datum of Australia (GDA94). The coordinates listed in this
report are all shown as MGA. To convert MGA to AMG decrease the easting by 105 m and
decrease the northing by 190 m (Land and Property Information NSW - Internet Site). This
will produce an accuracy of approximately +/-10 m. There is also a brief description of the
location of the tidal limit by referring to local physical features that are unlikely to change.
Therefore, the tidal limit in Coolagolite Creek is described as being at ‘small rise in creek at
ford, 1.9 km upstream from Nutleys Creek’.
During the course of the forty-six field surveys there were many unexpected results and
surprises, even for some of the locals who had perhaps lived in the area for sixty years.
Perseverance, flexibility, lateral thinking and the dedication to go just another 100 m (no
matter how difficult the terrain or how dense the vegetation) has resulted in a very
comprehensive, definitive list of tidal limits in NSW.
MHL1286 - 7
2.2 Mangrove Limits
2.2.1 Definition of Mangrove Limit
The approach with the mangrove limit survey was fairly straightforward. The mangrove that
was growing furthest upstream in each river and creek was located, photographed and its
location and description noted (left bank small mangrove 1 m high). Left or right bank
follows the convention of when an observer is looking downstream. The species of mangrove
was not recorded.
2.2.2 Field Surveys
The survey was best done from the water (particularly for the large rivers) but sometimes due
to circumstance or logistics the only way it could be done was by land. It was usually done
by travelling upstream noting mangroves as they occurred along the banks. As the density
thinned out more careful observations were made to determine the most upstream specimen.
After tentatively identifying the last mangrove, a section of bank further upstream was
checked to confirm that there were indeed no more mangroves further upstream, before
returning to the most upstream one and recording its details. If another was found upstream
the process was repeated until the mangrove limit was determined.
2.2.3 Accuracy and Coordinate System
It was acknowledged that floods, environmental factors or farming practices (such as drain
clearing) could easily remove young mangrove seedlings but it was still considered important
to record the presence of the seedlings however temporary their existence may have been.
As with the tidal limits the date and map reference have been recorded as well as a brief
description of the location based on local features, which are unlikely to change in the
foreseeable future, such as side creeks, bridges and roads. Location coordinates are also
given in MGA.
Figure 2.4 shows three photographs that were taken while doing the mangrove limits survey.

3. Southern Oscillation Index
The Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) gives a simple measure of the status of the Walker
Circulation - a major wind pattern of the Asia/Pacific region whose variability has a marked
effect on weather conditions in the Southern Hemisphere. The SOI is calculated from the
monthly or seasonal fluctuations in the air pressure difference between Tahiti and Darwin.
The SOI is the standardised anomaly of the mean sea level pressure difference between Tahiti
and Darwin. El Nino is the name given to episodes of the weather circulation where the
Pacific trade winds weaken. In Australia this leads to a reduction of the ocean temperatures
on the east coast and sometimes drought. La Nina is the name given to the alternate phase of
the weather circulation to El Nino. During La Nina episodes the Pacific trade winds are reestablished and in Australia, ocean temperatures increase on the east coast. During the La
Nina phase higher than average rainfall is experienced in eastern and northern Australia. On
the western coast of the Americas the wet/dry climatic effects of the La Nina and El Nino
phases are the opposite to those experienced on the east coast of Australia. Positive values of
the SOI indicate La Nina events whilst negative values indicate El Nino events. The higher
the absolute value of the SOI, the larger the strength of the La Nina/El Nino influence.
The data on the SOI from 1986 to 2005 was obtained from the Bureau of Meteorology’s web
site (BoM 2003) and is shown in Figure 3.1.
One of the parameters that impacts on the mangrove limit is freshwater inflow. The SOI
gives a rough indication of whether the data was collected in a period of higher or lower
average rainfall in the region.

4. Tidal Limits
4.1 Tidal Limits North to South Listing
The north to south listing of tidal limits is given in Table 4.1. In this table the rivers and
creeks are listed by estuary from north to south down the coast. This means that for any one
estuary the tributaries are grouped together and listed in an anti-clockwise direction starting
from the one closest to the north side of the entrance and finishing with the one closest to the
south side of the entrance.
4.2 Tidal Limits Alphabetical Listing
The alphabetical listing of tidal limits is given in Table 4.2. In this table the rivers and creeks
are listed not by estuary but by the first letter of their name. This means that for any one
estuary the tributaries are scattered throughout the list and must be looked up individually.

5. Mangrove Limits
5.1 Mangrove Limits North to South Listing
The north to south listing of mangrove limits is given in Table 5.1. In this table the rivers and
creeks are listed by estuary from north to south down the coast. This means that for any one
estuary the tributaries are grouped together and listed in an anti-clockwise direction starting
from the one closest to the north side of the entrance and finishing with the one closest to the
south side of the entrance.
5.2 Mangrove Limits Alphabetical Listing
The alphabetical listing of mangrove limits is given in Table 5.2. In this table the rivers and
creeks are listed not by estuary but by the first letter of their name. This means that for any
one estuary the tributaries are scattered throughout the list and must be looked up
individually.

7. Glossary of Tidal Terms
Australian Height Datum (AHD) is a single reference point set by the National Mapping
Council to relate all vertical measurements throughout Australia as part of the Geocentric
Datum of Australia (GDA) which is now being phased in by the Intergovernmental
Committee on Surveying and Mapping to unify all the different mapping datum across
Australia into one homogenous datum. The Australian Height Datum is based on the Mean
Sea Level.
Charted Depth is the vertical measurement of water from the ocean floor to a standard level
from which the soundings printed on charts are calculated, known as Datum.
Datum is the zero reference point from which tide heights (measured up) and chart soundings
(measured down) are calculated.
Depth of Water can be calculated at any given time in any given place by adding the height
of the tide at that time and place to the Charted Depth as recorded on the chart for that place.
Diurnal Tides occur once a day, i.e., one high tide and one low tide on average in any one
24-hour period.
Highest Astronomical Tide (HAT) is the highest tide which can be predicted under any
combination of astronomical conditions and average meteorological conditions. Higher tides
can occur under extreme meteorological and oceanographic conditions.
Indian Spring Low Water (ISLW) is the lowest level to which a tide will fall under
exceptional, predictable, astronomical conditions. It seldom occurs. Meteorological and
oceanographic influences, which cannot be predicted, can cause the tide to fall even lower.
King Tide is a layman’s term for the highest of the Spring Tides which usually occurs during
the day on the New or Full Moon in January and again, at night, on the New and Full Moon in
July.
Lowest Astronomical Tide (LAT) is the lowest tide which can be predicted under any
combination of astronomical conditions and average meteorological conditions. Lower tides
can occur.
Mean High Water Springs (MHWS) is the average level of the Spring high tides which
occur on the New and Full moons.
Mean Low Water Springs (MLWS) is the average level of the Spring low tides.
MHL1286 - 115
Mean High Water Neaps (MHWN) is the average level of Neap high tides which occur on
the Quarter moons.
Mean Low Water Neaps (MLWN) is the average level of Neap low tides.
Mean Sea Level (MSL) is the average level of the sea surface over a 19-year period, and is
approximately the level where the water would settle if there were no tides.
Neap Tides are those which occur on the Quarter Moons (first or last) when the high tides are
relatively small (a low ‘high’) and the low tides are relatively big (a high ‘low’).
Semi-diurnal Tides occur twice a day, i.e., two high tides and two low tides on average in
any one 24-hour period. Of the two highs, one will be higher than the other (daytime in
summer, night time in winter). Of the two lows, one will be lower than the other.
Slack Water is when a tidal current ceases to flow before reversing direction. It does not
necessarily occur at the same time as the time of high or low tide. It is governed by
geographical and hydrological influences as well as the tide itself.
Spring Tides are those which occur on the New or Full Moon when the high tides are very
high ( a high ‘high’) and the low tides are very low (a low ‘low’). Not to be confused with
the season also know as spring.
Tidal Current is the horizontal movement of water caused by the rise or fall of the tide.
Tidal Epoch has been set in Australia as a 20-year period (based on the Lunar Cycle of 18.6
Earth years) over which all recordings of tidal variations and influences are analysed and
reviewed.
Tidal Range is the difference in height between two sequential tidal extremes (a low tide of
0.29 metres followed by a high tide of 1.63 metres will cause a tidal range of 1.34 metres,
1.63 - 0.29 = 1.34).
