In the following report, particular emphasis is attached to the necessity for an approach to development which will maintain a stable landscape and will avoid contributing to problems of siltation and turbidity in the Murray River. The study entailed preparation of an inventory of the physical features of the landscape -soils, slope, terrain and drainage pattern. This information has been interpreted to provide a landscape evaluation map and an assessment of the capability of the area for urban development in terms of erosion hazard and landscape stability.
