Report on the Department of Ports and Harbors by the Department of Queensland, Australia is a brief status report about the quality of a selection of Australian ports and harbors. Excerpt: «Sir,—I have the honor to submit, for your information, the following Report concerning this Department for the past year:– I assumed charge on the 1st July 1890, and found that the heavy gales and floods experienced in January of the same year had most seriously affected several of the dredged cuttings of the Brisbane, Mary, Burnett, and Fitzroy Rivers. In some places, the Brisbane River had silted up to such an extent that there were fully 18 inches less water than before the flood. This, however, only proved a temporary inconvenience, as the dredges soon restored the cuttings to their original depths.»
