Pierces Creek is a former rural forestry settlement in the Australian Capital Territory which was managed by Housing ACT since the 1980s. The 13 homes at the settlement were destroyed during the 2003 Canberra bushfires and have never been rebuilt despite a proposal by the ACT Government in the mid-2000s. The Pierces Creek settlement was originally established as a semi-permanent camp in the 1920s to house workers in the surrounding forest plantations with permanent housing being constructed in the 1930s to attract men with their families to work in the industry. In the 1980s, the forestry industry had dramatically changed and workers were no longer required to live in the settlement and the management of the houses along with the existing tenants handed to Housing ACT. Tenants could not purchase their houses due to the settlement being zoned as "plantation forestry" under the National Capital Plan. Before the fire, the settlement consisted of: 13 housesBlacksmith's shopMature exotic plantingsSite OfficeDepotExplosives MagazineOrchardPlayground Along with the other former forestry settlements in the ACT (Stromlo & Uriarra), the settlement was virtually destroyed in the 2003 bushfires, displacing 12 families. Following the fire, the ACT government led by then Chief Minister Jon Stanhope proposed the construction of a "world class sustainable village with 50 houses". The proposed development required an amendment to the National Capital Plan. The National Capital Authority (NCA) responsible for the National Capital Plan rejected to amend the plan, stating that the settlement was too large and initially rejected the proposal, but agreed to amend the National Capital Plan to allow the former residents to purchase their houses from the ACT Government. The ACT Government instead proposed a settlement of 25 to 30 houses, however this too was rejected by the NCA. The NCA instead wanted a settlement of the original size of 13 homes to be rebuilt. However the proposal eventually fell through and the project was cancelled. After further clarification, the NCA was informed that the existing National Capital Plan allowed for the purchase of the homes and did not require to be amended, with Draft Amendment 51 – Pierces creek formally withdrawn on 10 December 2009. The settlement to this day has not been rebuilt. In 1991, a bushfire also destroyed $1.5 million worth of pine trees at Pierces Creek.

Yarrolumla Parish is a former parish of Murray County, New South Wales, a cadastral unit for use on land titles. It was formed in the nineteenth century, and existed until 1 January 1911, when the Seat of Government (Administration) Act 1910 came into force, after the land was transferred to the Commonwealth government in 1909 to be used to form the Australian Capital Territory. It is one of the four former parishes of Murray County which became part of the ACT, along with Canberra, Narrabundah and Gigerline. While other parishes lost land to the ACT, these were the only ones to lose all of the land within the parish. It was bounded to the north by the Molonglo River, and to the west and south by the Murrumbidgee River. It includes the area around Mount Stromlo, and the north-western part of Weston Creek, including Duffy. It does not actually include the present day suburb of Yarralumla, which was in Narrabundah parish, but it was close to it.

The Lower Molonglo Water Quality Control Centre is a sewerage and waste water treatment facility in the Australian Capital Territory, owned and operated by Icon Water. The Lower Molonglo Water Quality Control Centre (or LMWQCC) is the largest inland treatment facility in Australia, treating more than 90 million litres of Canberra's wastewater (including sewerage) per day using a combination of physical, chemical, and biological methods. The centre treats waste to an extent that much of it may be safely released back into the environment by way of the Molonglo River. Solid waste is however separated during treatment and incinerated at high temperatures resulting in an ash that is sold to local farmers and gardeners as a fertiliser.

The Molonglo River is a perennial river that is part of the Murrumbidgee catchment within the Murray–Darling basin. It is located in the Monaro and Capital Country regions of New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory, in Australia.

The Murrumbidgee electorate is one of the five electorates for the unicameral 25-member Australian Capital Territory Legislative Assembly. It elected five members at the 2016 ACT election.
