<FONT FACE="Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:12.0px'>The Public Environment Report has been released. Please read below about what you can do:<BR>
<I><BR>
Important!!!!<BR>
<BR>
Here is a link for the PER for TS09 - Unfortunately, the deadline for response has passed (Nov 19). <BR>

<BR>
The Dept of Defence has indicated that we can still send responses through - to either the company Sinclair Knight Mertz (the company in charge of the process) and/or to the Dept of Defence's Colin Trinder - Director of Environment Management on:<BR>

I recommend sending them to both company and DoD - just in case the company no longer accepts them. Colin has indicated that he will pass them on and the DoD will respond.<BR>
<BR>
I haven't read the report but from my discussion with DOD, it seems that some of the activity will be taking place further north than in the past: air activities will be based in DARWIN and a battlegroup will be in the Arafura Sea (not the Coral Sea) - not around Shoalwater Bay. <BR>
<BR>
Please take the time to have a look - it is over 2 megabites so not emailable on this list, I think. If you have a problem, let me know and I will email you a copy.<BR>
<BR>
I think it is important for groups to send in some kind of response. Please let me/us know if you intend to do so - or if somehow we can collaborate...<BR>
<BR>
Thanks!<BR>
<BR>
Peace,<BR>
