  Crunch time for the State on Cockburn Sound : thewest.com.au
Much of the history of the Sound since decisions were made more than 40 years ago to site polluting industries there has to do with the continuing precarious balancing act between the needs of industry and protection of the environment.
Of course, this Government is not responsible for all the environmental problems in the Sound which have been accumulating for decades — but it proposes potentially to add to them with its projects.
The Government would show that it is dinkum about saving the Sound by accepting the need for a moratorium on future projects there until a thorough, independent and expert inquiry establishes the environmental condition and needs of the Sound.

 Bruce Cockburn - News Archive - Cockburn's 25th album released
Cockburn's last album, "The Charity Of Night" (followed by the "You Pay Your Money..." live EP from the "Charity" Tour) was hailed as one of Cockburn's strongest albums for years.
When it was reported earlier this year that Bruce Cockburn was asking for audience suggestions at gigs for a title for this song, I'd have been tempted to suggest something Central Asian for this one, as oriental melodies keep rising unexpectedly out of the tune.
The violin sound on the song (that kicks in 3 minutes, 8 seconds into the track) is not listed as a separate instrument in the track credits because it isn't coming from a violin.

 Western Angler - Your Online Guide to Fishing Western Australia - Western Angler - Your Online Guide to Fishing Western ...
The result was the creation of the Cockburn Sound Management Council (CSMC) in August 2000 to coordinate environmental planning and management of Cockburn Sound and its catchment.
One of the major factors that continues to impact badly on water quality in Cockburn Sound is the reduced flushing effect caused by the construction of the original Garden Island Causeway.
If we accept that change is inevitable, and that Cockburn Sound will continue to come under increasing pressure as a result of industrialisation, then the responsible approach for the government is to immediately start to reduce some of the cumulative impacts.

 Crabbing ban in Cockburn Sound : thewest.com.au
The State Government has banned commercial and recreational crab fishing in Cockburn Sound for at least a year, raising more concerns for the environmental health of the stressed waterway and putting more pressure on the Peel-Harvey area.
Recfishwest executive director Frank Prokop rejected Mr Ford’s explanation, saying commercial fishing of pre-spawn female crabs in late winter, poor fisheries management and industrial development were to blame.
Cockburn Sound crab fisherman Robbie Santaromita, who has fished the sound for 27 years, blamed industrial development, including the construction of the Garden Island causeway, groynes for shipbuilding and dredging of channels.

 Green Left - Issues: Cockburn to become US Navy base   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Ongoing sea swaps with the US seventh fleet will require the conversion of the Cockburn Sound into a US naval base, which would include the deepening of the channel in the Cockburn sound from 12 to 16 metres, to allow aircraft carriers to dock.
Also included in the agreement is the opening up of the Lancelin, north of Perth, for the US Navy to conduct live fire practice of sea and air bombardments and marine amphibious assaults.
Shifting operations to Cockburn Sound will dramatically increase the turn-around time for US naval battle groups that at present return to San Diego on the US west coast, or Hawaii.
