Please select the concerns that you have about Western Power's site selection process

many stakeholders missed out on the opportunity to express their concerns at the public meetings last year
the site selection process paper contains very little information on the project that would enable informed comments
the deadline for submissions of June 16 is too short to allow many people and organisations to submit comments
no sustainability criteria were used in the decision to site the terminal in the hills area
the proposed criteria for assessing the various options are flawed and the definition of degree of impact for each criteria is unreasonable
there is no mechanism to provide feedback to the community on submissions made to Western Power

Other:

Western Power could improve its site selection process by

holding open meetings as soon as possible to enable the community to be properly informed
extending the comment period to at least 2 months
applying sustainability principles to the question of whether an Eastern Terminal should be located in this study area
reviewing the criteria listed in Table 3.1 using community workshops to enable open discussion of the criteria
publishing an accurate account of community members’ comments

Other:

We encourage you to provide a closing paragraph with your additonal comments here.
