“FORWOOD” Wau, the birthplace of modern-day PNG forestry. The history of PNG Forestry is intrinsically linked to the development of the Bulolo Wau valleys gold fields and their natural stands of Araucarias. James Sinclair3 detailed the history of the Bulolo Wau goldfields. In his article Forestry in Wau, TPNG forester Des Harries described Wau as the birthplace of TPNG Department of Forests (leading to the PNG Department of Forests and today the PNG National Forest Service) over eighty years ago. Wau was the first posting of TPNG’s first director “JB” James Bannister McAdam4 MM 1910-1959. His role was to undertake rehabilitation of the disturbed forest due to mining activities and establish plantations suffice to establish and maintain a viable forest industry. Jim McAdam was a graduate of University of Queensland and Australian Forestry School. In 1932/33 he was dux winning the Schlick Medal. In 1934, he joined Queensland Forestry before joining TPNG Department of Forests. In 1938 he joined the TPNG administration and made Chief Forester in 1939 in Wau. In 1939, he commenced the Bulolo Wau land and forest timber rights puchases.5 By 1940, McAdam had established an experimental planting of hoop pine (Anderson’s plot) at Wau6, and a small planting7 of Pinus elliottii, Pinus taeda, Pinus kesiya, Agathis palmerstonii and other hardwoods. Mycorrhiza was furnished from innoculum brought from Beerwah Nursery of Qld State Forestry. With the threat of war in the Pacific, McAdam enlisted in the Australian Military Forces on 19 September 1940 at Wau. He began full-time duty with the New Guinea Volunteer Rifles on 22 January 1942 and was promoted sergeant within a fortnight. After the Japanese invaded Salamaua in March, he led a party of scouts which established an observation post within a mile (1.6 km) of enemy positions.

He was awarded the Military Medal for his outstanding service at Salamaua. From 1944/45 he was Lt Col 1 Aust CRE (New Guinea Forests). In 1946 he became Director of Forests TPNG.

Wau History. Wau is situated at an altitude of around 1100 metres in Morobe Province PNG. The Wau Ecology Institute is a biological research station situated near Wau. Wau was the site of a gold rush during the 1920s and 30s. While much of the mineral reserves have been extracted, industrial gold mining continues at Edie Creek and at the newly established Hidden Valley Gold Mine operated by Harmony Gold - South Africa.

, some 210km north-west of Port Moresby. Wau was the site of a gold rush during the 1920s and 30s when prospective gold diggers arrived at the coast at Salamaua and struggled inland along the Black Cat track. The first strike at Wau, the start of what would be known as the Morobe Goldfield, was made at Koranga Creek by William ‘Shark-Eye’ Park, probably towards the end of 1921. Park and his partner, Jack Nettleton, ran a clandestine mining operation for twelve months from April 1922 until a new Mining Ordinance enabled them to get their gold out legally. Nettleton, it is known, took out 6000 troy ounces, or about 190 kg, of gold in August 1923. Only a handful of miners worked the field, rich as it was, until 1924. From 1924 to 1926 perhaps 20 miners were on the field producing about 200 kg of gold a year. The real rush began in 1926 with much bigger discoveries at Edie Creek, above Wau. The new rush made air transport viable and Wau’s airstrip opened in 1927 by the Parer brothers originally of Spanish descent. In 1928 there were 200 miners and production was about three tonnes a year. The influx of miners was often in conflict with the area's indigenous populations, including the Biangai along the Bulolo River and the Watut along the Watut River. During the early gold rush (1924–1927) prospectors and carriers employed from the coast followed paths through some of the Biangai villages. The beginning of air transport reduced the need for lines of carriers. In 1972, in the 6000 hectares case, PNGLR 71 (19 July 1972) the Biangai won the restitution of the Morobe Goldfields in the Supreme Court of Papua New Guinea and compensation was awarded in respect of historical gold sales. Park quit Wau in 1926 as a wealthy man. After this properly capitalized companies were formed. New Guinea Goldfields, Ltd (NGG) was the biggest operator, but there were many others: for example, Koranga Gold Sluicing, Sandy Creek Gold Sluicing, Edie Creek Gold Mining Company, The Golden Deeps N.L., Upper Watut Gold Alluvials, Placer Development Limited, ETC. In subsequent years, NGG consolidated control over much of the mineral reserves using its large capitalization to purchase the smaller leases. Underground mining began with the Day Dawn mine in 1931; several similar operations were opened before and after the Second World War. These mines were exceedingly small by modern standards, the biggest being Upper Ridges with a total production of 2.9 tonnes over eighteen years. Open cut mining was conducted at Golden Ridges mine between 1932 and 1941, and other pits yielded gold in the Namie area both before and after the war. Most were small and short-lived; the richest was Golden Peaks, producing about six and half tonnes of gold between 1962 and 1977. The Golden Peaks mill also processed ore brought to it by an aerial ropeway from new workings at Upper Ridges. Bulolo Gold Dredging (BGD) began operations at the sister town of Bulolo in 1932 and was responsible for the bulk of pre-war gold production: about forty tonnes in total. Seven of the eventual eight dredges worked the Bulolo Valley gravels; one only, No. 6, worked in the Wau Valley. Large operations ceased to be attractive after WWII, partly due to pegging of the gold price at pre-war prices and the last dredge ceased operating in 1965. Source Wikipedia.

A road was established soon after World War II to Lae and this fostered the further development of local timber and agricultural industries that were originally established in support of the mining industry. While much of the mineral reserves have been extracted, industrial gold mining continues at Edie Creek and at the newly established Hidden Valley Gold Mine operated by Morobe Goldfields (a subsidiary of Harmony Gold - South Africa). Timber mills in Wau were started by Roy Hyde in 1935, who arrived with his wife, two sons and a daughter. Timber was floated down the Bulolo river to the coast, which was used for house building in Lae and other resorts along the coast. Natives would guide the rafts to their destinations.

Booth, Doris Regina (1895–1970) by Susan Gardner Doris Booth 1939 Wikipedia Doris Regina Booth OBE (1 October 1895 – 4 November 1970) was an Australian nurse and goldminer. She was the first female member of the Legislative Council of Papua and New Guinea. This article was published: ▪ in the Australian Dictionary of Biography, Volume 7 ,
1979 ▪ online in 2006 Doris Regina Booth (1895-1970), nursing volunteer and goldminer, was born at South Brisbane on 1 October 1895, daughter of Henry Wilde, clerk, and his wife Minna Christina, née Gerler. After a state school education, she enrolled as a trainee nurse at Brisbane General Hospital but met Captain Charles Booth, a shell-shocked soldier who had prospected in Papua before the war; she discontinued her training when they married on 14 May 1919. After twelve penurious months at Mitchell in western Queensland, Booth became a plantation manager for the New Guinea Expropriation Board at Raniolo near Kokopo. When he was discharged late in 1923, his wife took a share in four trade-stores and broke local convention by becoming a licensed recruiter of labour. Financed by Burns Philp & Co. Ltd, they went surreptitiously to Salamaua in 1924 following rumour of gold. Booth went ahead to the Bulolo valley while his wife secured her own miner's right, refused earlier in Rabaul; single-handed, she then spent five weeks taking a line of carriers from Salamaua to Bulolo. There, while her husband prospected, she was employed by William ('Sharkeye') Park to 'man' his lease. Booth pegged a lease in his wife's name, then left her as the only resident white woman at Bulolo to work it while he prospected at Edie Creek. From September 1926 to January 1927 she also organized and managed a racially segregated bush hospital to control a dysentery epidemic, treating over 32 patients at one time and more than 130 all told. For this work she received the O.B.E. in 1928 and became known locally as 'the Angel of Bulolo'. One of their leases was sold in April 1927 to Morobe Guinea Gold Ltd and Mrs Booth became a director of the firm. While Mrs Booth went to Australia for her health and for business between 1927 and 1930, the marriage began to collapse. Nevertheless, the couple travelled to the United States of America and England and while in London in 1928, with M. O'Dwyer as ghost-writer, she published Mountain Gold and Cannibals, a popularized version of her experiences. After her return to New Guinea in March 1929 she slowly wrested control over the family business affairs from her husband, whom she left early in 1932. Booth sued in the Central Court of the Territory of New Guinea in August 1933 for restitution of property. Since no Mandated Territory law explicitly safeguarded married women's property rights, it was a test case. Judge F. B. Phillips held that British and Australian Acts passed before 1921 superseded the common law notion of male control of joint property and gave Mrs Booth the verdict. When Booth appealed this particularly acrimonious case to the High Court of Australia, the judgment was upheld and territorial law was amended by the Status of Married Women Ordinance 1935-36. There is no evidence that the couple were ever formally divorced; Booth returned to prospecting while his wife became a successful mine-manager and company director. Settling in Brisbane in July 1938, she worked for the Mothercraft Association until after 1945 when she was involved in rebuilding her business from war-damage insurance. Appointed as the sole woman member of the first and second Legislative Councils of Papua-New Guinea in 1951-57, she supported mining interests, public health, secondary education for black and white, land and housing loans for Europeans and the sexual protection of native women. Doris Booth was a strong opponent of the
10
liquor (natives) bill of 1955, and of a section in the public service bill (1953) restricting married women to temporary or exempt positions. She represented the women of Papua-New Guinea at the Pan-Pacific Women's Conference of 1955 in Manila. She retired to Brisbane in 1960, did volunteer work with the Methodist Blue Nursing Service, and died of coronary vascular disease at St Andrew's War Memorial Hospital on 4 November 1970.

FORESTRY IN WAU by Des Harries12 Wau must be accorded some significance in the record of forestry in Papua New Guinea because it was the base for the first forester appointed to the Australian Mandated Territory, as it was titled at this time. He was James Bannister McAdam and his appointment as Forest Officer was made in January 1938. (Ref. 1) Des Harries 1971. Photo Credit Des Harries. 1971. At the time of McAdam’s appointment, it is significant to note that the Administration of the Mandated Territory of New Guinea was conducted as a separate organization to that of the Australian Territory of Papua. The Headquarters of the former was in Rabaul. McAdam, born at Lancaster, U.K. in 1910, had migrated to Queensland with his parents and attended school in Toowoomba. He gained a Queensland Forest Service Cadetship in 1929 and completed his forestry training at the University of Queensland and the Australian Forestry School, Canberra, where 1933 was his final year. He then undertook field work with Queensland Forestry until his New Guinea appointment. It is not known if McAdam first lived in Rabaul, however, if so, he soon moved to Wau where the Territory’s major gold resource was being exploited (Note1) and large-scale utilization of the forests and reforestation were being considered. As we know all progress came to a sudden end in 1942 with the Japanese invasion during World War II. The Influence of Lane Poole13 The work in the 1920’s by C.E. Lane Poole (Ref. 2) initially carried out for the Administration of the Territory of Papua, then for Administration of the Mandated Territory of New Guinea, was a significant landmark for forestry in this country. Its primary objective was to locate and evaluate forest resources which could form the basis of profitable export-oriented businesses. In this he was unsuccessful, although he recognized potential for paper making and minor forest products. In 1923 and 1924, Charles Lane Poole completed a survey of Papua and New Guinea and recommended the establishment of a forest service. By the time a forerunner to a forest service was established in 1938, with the appointment of J B McAdam and J Cavanaugh, several Europeans had commenced sawmilling operations.

Lane Poole, Forest Resources (1925), facing p. 198, courtesy of the National Archives of Australia. At the time of his project, the discoveries of the Wau/Bulolo goldfields were just being made. Although he must have heard of the presence of the stands of Araucaria associated with the goldfields, he did not on this occasion get to see them. Their presence there tied into his discovery of the conifer belt at this altitude, and he had seen examples of these forests in other areas. (Note 2). River of mud. The Bulolo River below Koranga Creek gold sluicing, 1960. Photo Credit Des Harries. In fact, the mining operations at Wau which commenced in about 1922 had created a demand for sawn timber. With its isolation, the goldmines at Wau needed local timber supplies. These were readily available on site, and free, as their harvesting would have been effectively a non-issue for the Administration of the Mandated Territory. The Administration was certainly mindful of the value of royalty payments on extracted mineral resources. Yet the matter of land tenure seems to have remained a non-issue. If considered at all it is likely to have been placed in the ‘too hard basket.’ Only in recent years has this legality been addressed, and compensation paid to the landowners. The gold miners, including Mrs. Doris Booth OBE, were aware of the valuable timber resources. In her 1929 biography, Mrs. Doris Booth described the stands in the Bulolo valley with some enthusiasm. She suggested that after the gold mining ceased, they could utilize the valuable timber in the area. (Ref. 4) As it happened however, most of the best stands of Red Cedar were destroyed to make way for the gold dredging. Gold dredge at Bulolo, 1960. Photo Credit Des Harries. The scale of gold extraction had accelerated during the 1930s, and access improved with the development of air transport between Lae, Wau and Bulolo in particular. Lane-Poole, then Inspector-General for Forests for the Commonwealth, was asked in 1935 to further 16
investigate timber industry potential in the area for the Mandated Territory Administration, based in Rabaul. (Ref. 3). Lane Poole14 in his report on the forests of the goldfields of Bulolo Wau in 1935 stated: that the only asset that he could see to replace the wasting product gold, was timber. The region is purely a forest one, and its climate is decidedly a forest climate – in short it is proven forest country. In contrast to the emphasis placed on industry use – values by miners and government officials in the mining office, government forestry officials emphasized the potential for an industry and the wastefulness of the mining community. In his 1935 survey of timber in the Morobe goldfields, Lane Poole was concerned with value of timber and overly critical that the timber was not being used appropriately by mining companies. For example, cedar was used as an all-purpose resource when durability was necessary. He quoted the use of cedar for a water race when the cedar would have been put better to use in the production of fine cabinetry. Evan Shield demonstrated this point with a photograph below of a bridge made from cedar15 over the Bulolo River above the confluence with the Watut River before World War 2.

Lane Poole, as the then Commonwealth Inspector General of Forests for the colony charged with making recommendations on the use of the forest resources found in the colony, enforced a set of values that sought to match grain and strength with products. He argued that the mining community needed to put to better use the resources available to them. They were too wasteful, knowing nothing of timber’s value. Jensens Bridge Bulolo Valley.

From the discovery of gold at Koranga Creek near Wau by William “Shark eye” Park in 1922, the development of the Wau Bulolo valleys for gold mining with roads, townships and airstrips enabled a flourishing timber industry to be developed including large scale plantation development which continues to this day. Pre-war forestry The first saw-milling business to have been established in Wau may have been in 1935. According to the source under reference, Mr. Roy Hyde arrived in Wau that year with his wife, two sons and a daughter and started mills (sic.). This reference says that timber was floated down the Bulolo River in rafts to the coastal town of Lae where it was used for house building. (Ref. 5) (Note 3). The expected Administration revenue from exploitation of the Wau/Bulolo forest resources would have been a significant stimulus to it accepting the 1935 recommendations made by Lane-Poole. This evidently led to recruitment action being initiated and the appointment of the Territory’s first forest officer, J.B. McAdam, in January 1938 as already noted. Anderson’s Plot (planted c.1940) surrounded by 1950’s plantations. Photo Credit Des Harries. In the few years that remained before the onset of World War II work was commenced on Hoop Pine planting. This was conducted in the Kauli Creek area near to Kaisenik Village and five miles out of Wau. This plantation of not more than an acre became known as Anderson’s Plot. When forestry operations at Wau resumed in 1956 the locality was known as Anderson’s Logging Area. Mr. Anderson appears to have been an assistant engaged by McAdam. A forestry base and nursery had been established adjacent to the southern bank of the Bulolo River approximately one mile upstream from the No 6 gold dredge. This happened to be opposite the site of the new 1960 Forest Station. McAdam’s nursery site was approximately two miles in a direct line from the first plantation (Anderson’s Plot) and approximately five miles from the centre of the Wau mining locality. (Note 4) Post-war Forestry The war wiped out Wau. As a mining town its renewal depended upon startup of operations which took little time. However, the policy of ‘burnt earth’ which had been adopted by Australia’s military forces meant a complete rebuilding of the town and its infrastructure was required. Obviously, the saw-milling facility was essential in this process. No road yet existed linking the area with the coast, which retarded recovery. However, the wartime
18
Administration under the Military with operational District Management by ANGAU, saw the inevitable combination of the administrative efforts in the two Territories. Mt. Missim from Wau, 1960. Photo Credit Des Harries. With McAdam leading the Australian Forestry companies during the latter years of the war, the groundwork for a combined post-war Department of Forests was laid. This was particularly important in two key aspects of a national forestry effort resource survey and saw-milling. In the former, McAdam had secured Territory-wide aerial photography at a scale amenable to forest resource survey and mapping. In the latter, the Forestry Companies’ sawmills at Lae and Kerevat provided immediate timber supplies for reconstruction in two major centres and developed a core of staff with a good degree of forestry aptitude and loyalty.

Probably the largest project undertaken by the post-war Department of Forests was the marking of the survey reference points, trigonometrical stations, on the land allocated in the Wau/Bulolo valleys for forestry. The completed survey was shown on the map produced by the Department of Forests entitled Bulolo-Wau Valley, Area of Forestry Interest, C390, 10-1-64. The establishment of the trig stations allowed the detailed surveying required for roading and plantation establishment to tie in with the overall survey network. These surveys continued as required into the future. In Wau the available land suitable for plantation establishment in the Kauli Creek area, and initially named Anderson’s Logging Area, was planted up over a period of four years commencing in 1956-57 and completed in 1959-60. On the map C390, this area was called Kauli Creek Territory Forest. Forest Ranger Mike Kazakoff supervised this area of plantations establishment. The senior foreman was Bai from Kaiapit Village in the Markham River Valley.

In 1960 the Kauli base was abandoned, and a permanent Forest Station established on the Northern side of the Bulolo River. This was to be accessed via the Pine Creek Road, and a new concrete bridge was constructed crossing the Bulolo River. However, before the bridge could be used, floods washed out the temporary road approaches. For several months access was limited to vehicles capable of fording the river or by walking.

The Forestry Labour Force In the post-war period the workforce at Wau was provided almost solely through the system of indentured labour organized by the Administration. The source of this labour force was the Eastern Highlands, commonly from Kainantu. The so-called ‘lines’ of thirty young men were recruited for two-year periods. Usually they selected their own ‘boss boi,’ who thereby gave his name to the ‘line.’ Working at Wau was probably the best locality for highlanders in terms of healthiness. The risk of serious lowland tropical disease was less than at coastal locations although malaria was still a major problem. In terms of working conditions, with regular diet, housing, and clothing issues as well as health care, very few recruits did not return to their village in a healthier state than when they had left. Many wanted to return, although this rarely happened.

In 1960 Forestry at Wau obtained its own ‘lik lik doctor’. His name was Maupa, from Salamaua. As one of the very few local staff who was literate, Maupa also gained the additional duty of meteorological observer at the Wau Forest Station. The Environment The contrast of philosophies of the introduced industries practiced in Wau was extreme. On one end of the spectrum was that of gold mining. The allure of this mineral created a drive which seemed to justify, or indeed negate, all detrimental side effects of the extraction process. The Administration, through its Mining Laws, sought only to protect individual leases and ensure that leases paid their royalty on extracted mineral. No requirement was imposed on leases to restore their leases or to mitigate damage to off-site areas. In the Wau/Bulolo minefield the damage done was extreme on both counts. The prime valley flats, with impressive stands of Red Cedar and many other hardwoods, were converted to rock piles. The large-scale sluicing operations on Koranga and Edie Creeks in particular, washed tons of silt into the Bulolo River for decades. The extraction of gold involved pollution from mercury and cyanide. Tailings from underground mining were dumped on the most convenient location. And for all this disaster, most of the profits went offshore. Agricultural endeavor in the Wau Valley was directed to two forms of cropping. Firstly, coffee plantations became the dominant feature of the Wau Valley on its southern side. These plantations had been amongst the first coffee grown in Papua New Guinea, and in the Wau environment were extraordinarily successful. Vegetable growing for sale into the major centres of Port Moresby and Lae was the other significant agricultural operation. It relied on airfreight of fresh vegetables, e.g., lettuce and other leaf and root crops, to the European food retailers of these centres. One small dairy herd supplied fresh milk for local consumption. The environmental impact of these crops and grazing was relatively benign. Forestry operations, through the plantation program, was largely restorative. It is true that the preliminary harvesting of sawlogs and the pre-plantation clear falling and burn off caused short term erosion and disruption of the pristine forest. But under forestry control these scars were healed in a few years. In particular, the network of retained forest cover between plantation compartments, along creek lines and on slopes deemed too steep for plantations, 21
ensured wildlife refuge and the preservation of all native forest values. The plantations themselves were initially all native conifers. The area of Kauli Creek cleared at the time of establishing Anderson’s Plot (approximately 1940) was probably more extensive than the area actually planted. This may explain the severe grass infestation in the neighbouring 1956-57 plantation known as Compartment 1, Anderson’s Logging Area. (Note 5). Grass infested Hoop Plantation near Anderson’s Plot, c.1961. Photo Credit Des Harries. Because of its age, and despite its small size, Anderson’s Plot remained of interest during the post-war years. Growth plots were installed for regular measurement. The most damaging feature of the forest plantation program was undoubtedly the construction and maintenance of access roads. In this climate and on the slopes of the valley, land slips were a continuing problem. During the Battle of Wau, which took place in 1943, this area was occupied by Japanese forces. Significant numbers of unused mortar bombs were found during planting and tending of the post-war plantations. Harvesting and Marketing In 1960 New Guinea Goldfields Pty. Ltd. held a Permit to take logs from the Wau forestry area. This amounted to two million super feet per month. These logs were for conversion at their local sawmill. The logging crew operated with one truck, one bulldozer and the small crew was supervised by Mr. ‘Taffy’ Evans, who knew the area well. Forestry required the logging operation to be coordinated with its reforestation program, and for this purpose regular liaison was essential. Pine stands were of scattered distribution in small to moderate stands which made harvesting to the Permit quota tricky. Apart from Pine (both Hoop and Klinkii) considerable volumes of prime hardwoods were also available, but less sought after by NGG. Monthly harvesting returns were submitted by NGG to the Regional Forest Office for the area and were not sighted by the local Forest Officer responsible for overall supervision. The harvesting system required that the logging crew marked logs taken from the forest. These should have been measured for royalty purposes at the log ramp. Obviously, this messy system had the potential for many failings including the theft of timber. With the staff available, adequate supervision and checking of log harvesting was impossible, and remained a source of irritation. Despite this, relations between the Wau Forestry staff and NGG’s logging crew generally remained relaxed, and with the state of roads, mutual assistance was frequent.
22
The final logging operation in the Kauli Creek area in 1960 was about as disastrous as it ever was, with the NGG tractor operator inadvertently (we trust) knocking out a few trees from Anderson’s Plot and leaving a main road in a non-accessible condition after its use as a log loading ramp. The ancient and huge Araucarias, towering over the understory and often growing in precarious ridge-top locations, were valuable trees. To fell them was dangerous work, even for a skilled tree-faller. The cutting tools available for this work in 1960 were axes and crosscut saws. In the case of New Guinea Goldfields’ crew, the fallers were New Guineans paid no more than a few dollars a month plus keep. Some trees were lost irretrievably by slipping into deep valleys, yet although these were unaccounted for, the number lost was relatively small. So was the number of accidents in the logging crews. For all its difficulties in this most uninviting environment, the saw-milling operation in Wau as operated in 1960 was probably a commercial success. It would only have been better to have been run by the Forestry Department, which at that time had the surplus staff capacity to do so as its Lae and Kerevat saw-mills closed.

The first plantation burn on the northern site of the Bulolo River took place on 29 September 1960. It was a tricky compartment to burn as it was spread around three sides of the new Forest Station site, known as Cedar Creek. It was known as Compartment 1, Izzy Dizzi Creek Logging Area. Wandumi land adjoined this area on the eastern side, and south of the Forest Station site. The vehicle road to Wandumi ran along this southern boundary and crossed Cedar Creek at a fossiliferous site. Plantations burn in Beenleigh Creek, seen from Wau 1961. Photo Credit D Harries.

A five-chain wide belt of rainforest was retained around the nursery/forest station clearing, and additional land set aside on the western side to provide gardening sites for the labour lines (up to three, i.e., ninety men, were initially housed here).

Commonwealth Department of Works undertook the construction of the permanent Forest Station structures. The first of these was the office building, followed by the tubing shed and the building used as the store and vehicle garage. A year later the residence for the Wau Forest Officer was built on this site as well as three married quarters for local officers. Des and June Harries with arrival of daughter Julia were the first occupants with no electricity. Electricity was connected to this site in 1962.Photo Credit Ian Whyte 1976. Road works continued to the west over the ensuing several years, providing eventually an alternative route from Wau to Bulolo to that of the old gorge road. Sandy Creek Road crossing construction, 1961. Photo Credit Des Harries. The progress of this roading program suffered a severe setback when it reached Sandy Creek. This problem was complicated by issues associated with so-called ‘native mining’
Work on the Sandy Creek Crossing, c.1961. Photo Credit Des Harries. A well-constructed pre-war water-race existed on the western side of Sandy Creek. It had been recently reactivated for the purpose of small-scale alluvial gold extraction at the junction of Sandy Creek and the Bulolo River.

The road location which would have been shortest and cheapest to construct would have meant the destruction of the water-race. This was ruled as unacceptable. The Sub-District Officer also ruled that the miner should not be asked to relocate. The resulting solution involved cutting the road bench for the full distance along the
25
eastern bank of Sandy Creek until a crossing could be made upstream of the water-race. The road location then ran down-stream above the water-race on the western bank. The problem of construction of the road bench was exasperated by the fact that the location ran into granitic rock. This required extensive pneumatic drilling and blasting. Expatriate Staff at Wau With its Sub-district status, Wau office and its operations depended extensively on the resources of the Bulolo office. This resulted in considerable interaction of staff, and this increased in the early 1960s. The roadwork program, with a large component of maintenance and repair work, relied for some years on one Wau based tractor operator until late 1960 when he returned to Australia. This was Alan (Red) Harrison. There was regular support from Bulolo based tractor operators Bob Cattanach and Bill Jenkins. Then with the relocation of the Lae Sawmill staff, Peter Woolcot was transferred to Wau. On the silviculture side, support came from short term stays by Cadet Forest Officers, firstly Evan Shield followed by Neil Brightwell. The Fraser brothers, Ken and Alan moved up from the Lae Sawmill and took over roles in supervising the labour lines involved in plantation establishment. To provide support in the office, Mrs. Best, a resident of Wau was engaged. The fact that the forest office was located five miles out of town placed an additional burden on motor vehicles held at Wau, with Mrs. Best, Alan Fraser and Peter Woolcot requiring transport to and from the office each day. Without the expatriate residence constructed at the Forest Station, which had been a contentious issue at the start, operations at Wau would have been calamitous, because so much had to be organized early each morning at the Forest Station.

The Kauli Lake Amenity Once the labour line compound and forestry store had been removed from the former nursery site at Kauli lake, the decision was made to turn this location into an amenity for the community of Wau. 26
The existence of this small lake on the ridge near Kauli Creek had always been an intriguing natural feature. It also benefitted from having a magnificent view over the Wau Valley. As part of the site cleanup, it was decided to clear and burn some surrounding regrowth and to poison the extensive kau kau (sweet potato) gardens using herbicide. An unfortunate occurrence during the burn-off was that a spot fire in the neighboring Hoop plantation not being noticed in time and about an acre of plantation was destroyed. Extensive effort was put into the establishment of ornamentals, pathways, etc. around the lake. Some planting material was even flown in from Port Moresby. The resulting efforts were quickly appreciated by Wau townspeople, who used the site for family picnics. One family even had a small sailing boat brought up to use on the lake. The McAdam Memorial In late 1960 the Department of Forests sent draftsman Laurie Edwards to Wau to develop a plan for a permanent Memorial to its first Director. The site chosen was close to Kauli Lake but on its own grassland knoll. A massive concrete slab shaped as a stylized arrowhead was designed. This imposing memorial is visible from the air. It points true north across the Wau Valley and the site of Jim McAdam’s first Forest Station, and towards the imposing mass of Mt. Missim which lies between Wau and Salamaua on the North Coast. All these areas had played a significant part in Jim McAdam’s life. We hope he would have approved of what came after.

Notes for Forestry at Wau. Note No. 1. P.N.G. Forest Products Brochure (2004). (?) Extracts: P.N.G. Forest Products evolved from Bulolo Gold Dredging Limited that commenced operations in large scale alluvial mining in 1932. As the mining operation scaled down the plywood factory and sawmill were constructed by Commonwealth New Guinea Timbers Ltd. This was a collaboration between Bulolo Gold Dredging and the then government of Australia (New Guinea Timber Agreement Act, No. 40 of 1952). “In 1954 plywood production and the export of product to overseas destinations commenced and for the past 50 years the company has been involved in the conversion of both hardwood and plantation (conifer)resources to high value end products. The pine plantations were also established as part of a large-scale post-mining reforestation program by the Department of Forests. Note No. 2. Lane-Poole had determined through his systematic classification of floral zones that the coniferous forests occurred in what he called the Mid- Mountain belt, between one and two thousand metres in altitude. Note No. 3. The location of these mills (sic) in Wau is not known, but one may have been on the site subsequently used for a sawmill by New Guinea Goldfields Pty. Ltd. Machinery would have been flown in as were components of the No. 6 Gold dredge at this time. A suitable rafting site would have been at the site of the subsequent road crossing of the Bulolo River to Crawford’s farm on the northern side of the river. This was adjacent to the eastern extremity of the No. 6 dredging site. Note No. 4. The location of the first forestry operations in Wau at a distance of five miles, may have related to a clause in The Timber Ordinance (Consolidated) 1909, an adaptation of the old Queensland Act. This Ordinance, among other things, provided: - For the declaration of timber reserves on any Crown land, except within 5 miles of a mine shaft. The above Ordinance was replaced (possibly following the recommendation of Lane-Poole) with The Forestry (New Guinea) Ordinance 1936. It is not known, however, if the 5-mile clause was still invoked in 1938 when it was known that McAdam commenced forestry operations at Wau. Note No. 5. During April and May 1960, the risk of fire damage in the plantations adjacent to Anderson’s Plot became severe, with clearing and burning being conducted on the forestry side of Magnetic Creek near Kaisenik Village. This was in the vegetation left as a firebreak. The perpetrators here and in other locations at around this time were generally native miners. 30
It required considerable cooperation and assistance from officers of the Mining Wardens Office and the police to redress this risk to government forestry plantations. Native miners did not require an official license to operate but were granted leases and were assisted by an officer assigned to this task, in this case Mr. Ray Frazer. A similar fire risk also resulted from employees of leaseholders with forestry boundaries in the Kauli Creek area extending their gardening into forestry land left as “green breaks.” Fire lookouts equipped with knapsack sprays were maintained in the Kauli Creek area at this time. Note No. 6. The first buildings constructed at the Cedar Creek Forest Station were of native materials. These included a compound building, a store, and a shade house structure. The shade house was intended to hold orchids salvaged from the crowns of trees during the plantation site clearing. This was an arrangement with the Division of Botany in Lae. However, the shock of removal to ground level appeared too great and this project failed.
