Week 3 of our Land Court hearing began with Waratah Coal’s Nui Harris and Social Impacts expert Daniel Holm. Today, Wednesday, the Court will hear from Simon Welchman on Dust and Odour and Shane Elkin on Noise and Vibration.
A big day on Thursday for TBA, when, after Hilary Bambrick on Public Health, Bimblebox Nature Refuge carer Ian Hoch and TBA president and Refuge co-owner Paola Cassoni appear. Voices from the coalface, so to speak!
Patricia Julien, TBA researcher and fountain of knowledge on biodiversity, will also be questioned that day, after Eric Andersen – whose name may be familiar from his many great bird photos taken on the Refuge, and which we have featured.
Friday will include Carl Rudd, BNR co-owner, and Bimblebox Art Project co-ordinator, (and Instagram poster!) Jill Sampson. Andrew Vitale on Surface Water will be heard after Jill.
