“Consultation just a propaganda exercise”
By Save Eumundi Team • Jan 1st, 2010 • Category: NewsListen to the recording of Jack Connolly being interviewed by Diet Simon on the EIS and “consultation” on Noosa Community Radio.
From the Noosa Community radio website:
Powerlink the electricity lines builder owned by the bullying Queensland government, has dropped a nasty pre-Christmas present into the laps of the people resisting plans for a 275,000-volt line from close to Gympie to just outside Eumundi. It would run through the picturesque Eerwah Vale, where nature is still pretty pristine; many of its residents have moved into idyllic homesteads for a change of lifestyle. Koala habitat would be destroyed. In their usual steamroller fashion, the seemingly unaccountable Powerlink have left impacted people in the dark, although one rumour has it that building is due to start in January. Diet Simon talked to Jack Connolly, president of PAGE, Powerlines Action Group Eumundi.
Save Eumundi Team is a group of people who are keen to see our environment protected and insisting that the Queensland State Government and its agencies (like Powerlink) consider viable alternatives rather than the business as usual approach to electricity generation and transmission.
