Unless things have changed - and they may have, and I can't quickly lay my hands on the plan details - my understanding is that the site of the proposed substation is pretty much where the existing smaller pump station etc is, opposite the Kelly Swamp carpark. That to me seems less alarming than proposals to Disneylandise the area to attract 100,000 recreationists (or breakfast meetings - presumably not in the hides or on the grass!), apparently just because....

This morning's CT  .  "Revitalised wetlands may attract business breakfast meetings".  Riversmart--go to riversmart.org.  to get details---100,000 visitors, but they won't be birds.
