	Hunter River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Hunter River rises in the Liverpool Range and flows generally south and then east, reaching the Pacific Ocean at Newcastle, the second largest city in New South Wales and a major port.
		The Hunter Valley which is drained by the Hunter River is a major agricultural district and provides routes to the interior of the state which are relatively unimpeded by mountains and other obstacles.
		The Hunter River was discovered in the 1790s and was named after Captain John Hunter, the second Governor of the British colony in New South Wales.

		It is, however, one of the prettiest towns on the Hunter River, and is reputed to be one of the healthiest.
		Along the river banks are the wharves of two steamship companies, which connect with the railway, the Hunter being navigable as far as Morpeth to vessels of eight hundred tons burthen.

	Hunter Region - Water Management
		The Hunter River catchment includes a large proportion of salt bearing sedimentary rocks and soils, and surface and underground drainage from this contributes natural salinity to the river.
		Monitoring of the Hunter River shows that at the start of high flow periods (“events”), the salinity level rises sharply for a short time as rainfall runoff flushes ground and surface salt through the tributaries into the river (a first flush salt “spike”).
		When the river is in flood (as advised by the River Register), the licence holders can discharge unlimited saline water within the limits set by their individual tributary limit.

	River's Edge
		Tim Hunter's River's Edge is the most disturbing movie I have seen in the nearly nine years I have held this job.
		River's Edge, on the other hand, is everyone's nightmare, a cloud of misery wafting out of the familiar confusions and vacancies of American adolescence.
		Yet Hunter, who keeps returning to the purple-lipped, naked corpse, surely intends to suggest something momentous: Leaving a dead body unburied, the boys and girls casually violate a fundamental taboo of Western civilization, blithely committing a crime whose horror once resounded through the Greek myths, Homer, Sophocles.

	Hunter River
		The NSW south coast and most of the Murray River sites had reasonably low levels, while a region with high levels of oxidised nitrogen could be identified in the central west part of NSW.
		Based on the assessment of other water-quality data for the freshwater streams in the catchment, the Hunter River Management Committee (HRMC) indicated that existing median turbidity values (samples mainly taken at low flows) are less than 5 NTU.
		Naturally higher salinity levels in some Hunter river system streams are found due to the Permian saline geology within the catchment, however, instream levels can be exacerbated by human activities.

		The MER scheme operates in conjunction with the established Hunter River Salinity Trading Scheme (HRSTS) which is designed to manage saline water discharges during ‘high’ rather than ‘flood’ flows.
		Both schemes are based upon salinity credits whereby volumetric releases to the river are governed by the number of credits held by a participant for a specific discharge event (block).
