THE WATER CENSUS

THE WATER CENSUS 
RSWUA encourages everyone to participate – a clear understanding of our water resource will help to protect it. More information, see Newsletter-24/8/10.

PUBLIC MEETING PRESENTATION
The presentation Centennial Coal gave at the public meeting can now be viewed on their website www.centennialcoal.com.au On the left side menu click Operations & Community, then go down to Projects and click on Inglenook Exploration Project. At the bottom of that page you will find the link: Community Update - August 2010

THE PUBLIC MEETING was attended by nearly 100 people. Most stayed for the sausage sizzle afterwards which proved a great opportunity to discuss it all amongst each other. Many thanks to Peter Seeto for donating the sausages, our chefs Jonathon, Peter and Josh, and Helen, Prudie and Pam who provided the rest. Our thanks also to the Hall Trustees who provided the much welcomed warming tea and coffee! And many thanks to those that stayed on to clean up afterwards.
There was about an hour of questions following Centennial’s presentation and they clearly demonstrated the community’s concern and passion regarding this precious water resource. It was only the increasing cold and tantalising smell of sausages that closed the meeting! We look forward to regular public meetings with Centennial as feedback from those present indicated that the community regards this format as the real “community consultation”.
