Nationals candidate for Hunter Michael Johnsen, Running Stream Water Users Association (RSWUA) president Jolieske Lips, Member for Parkes Mark Coulton and RSWUA member Nell Schofield and vice-president Peter Docker overlooking the Capertee Valley.
“It’s time for us all to pull up and take a look at where we’re going and think about what kind of a place this will be in 200 years time” Member for Parkes Mark Coulton told a public meeting in the Running Stream Hall on Friday, June 11.
Mr Coulton was speaking to local farmers and landowners who are concerned about the loss of spring water that could occur if proposed coal mining in the area goes ahead.
Before the meeting, members of the Running Stream Water Users’ Association (RSWUA) Committee took Mr Coulton on a drive along Mt Vincent Road, with a detour along Vulcan Road to see the vistas across the Capertee Valley.

The meeting with Mark Coulton was very worthwhile with some good advice given and some ideas for further action to get our message out. The committee is currently working on these.
