Free environmental law workshop

The Environmental Defenders Office (EDO) is holding a workshop in Lithgow next Thursday 17th March at the Lithgow Information & Neighbourhood Centre (LINC), Cnr of Railway Pde/Padley St from 6:00 - 9:00pm.

The workshop will provide an overview of some of the key laws governing mining in NSW, the planning and environmental law framework in which decisions are made, public participation in this process, and other useful information. It will also look at the new process for making local environmental plans (LEPs) and the contents of the standard instrument.

We help individuals and community groups who are working to protect the natural and built environment.  You can go to their website to find out more about the workshop http://www.edo.org.au/edonsw/site/default.php
