the government and casino council who is telling people its not going ahead but refusing to take it off the table and refusing to put it in writing that they are not building a massive incinerator here in casino
the government and casino council are talking to other councils taking all their rubbish from tweed heads to kempsey and all councils in between taking their rubbish and burning it here in casino which casino is known as the beef capital of australia.
the dioxins which cannot be stopped and has been proven by over seas existing incinerators proving cancers, death in unborn children, animals, the poisonous gases cannot be stopped which will affect every persons water tanks the town water is within 900 mtrs and the high school within 1 mtr
the dioxins float in the air and land on the grasses that get into the beef , cattle sheep industry as well as cropping
where they casino council is wanting to put it in the job precinct right next to all the disabled low economic housing commission and high aboriginal area of housing
the government has another 4 places all around nsw and will build more in qld and other states affecting all farmers and people as the dioxins go as far as the wind blows and they have made a study to ballina from casino
we the people have a right to fresh air water and land as you cannot sell infected animals at all we need to stop it from happening and need your help in telling all farmers to get on bord and stop it from happening
as it will one day affect their farms and familys if it goes ahead companies such as viola who want one in has broken the epa laws mulitple times and get small fines they just dont care we need our farmers to help stand up and fight please
i am a small cattle farmer of 200 acres approx and just starting again after the floods so please help protect our water ways our air and tank waters thanks pat
