Hi all,
This mainly for those living in the west side of Lake Macquarie. Some
wonderful bushland is at risk. I had the privilege to walk in the area
yesterday.
All help is appreciated.

*AN URGENT MESSAGE*
AN OPEN-CUT MINE WILL SOON BE OPERATING NEAR THE SUBURBS OF BLACKALLS PARK,
FASSIFERN, AWABA AND TORONTO,
UNLESS WE ALL ACT NOW!!
UNITE TO STOP THIS MINING NOW!!!!
Centennial Coal proposes to develop its 'Olstan' mine in bushland near
BLACKALLS PARK, FASSIFERN, AWABA AND TORONTO.
Due to the ban on OPEN-CUT MINING in the Lake Macquarie area, Centennial
wants us to think that Olstan would be operating as an UNDERGROUND mine. NOT
TRUE. Large Access Pits would be dug up to2.5km long to expose coal seams to
be auger mined from the surface.
Residents would be adversely affected by DUST, NOISE and FALLING PROPERTY
VALUES.
Environmental damage would degrade the bushland, Palmers Creek, Stony Creek.

ACT NOW TO STOP THIS MINING
*ATTEND: Centennials Coal's Open Day at Blackalls Park Public School on
SATURDAY 14 MARCH from 9.30 am to 12.30 pm*
