  1. I would encourage the people of the district to view Gaslands. I am an ex-Victorian now living in the hell of Gaslands Queensland on the Surat Basin. This industry uses stealth to infiltrate your community, make very few rich and the rest adversly effected. I know your area very well coming from Maryborough Vic. The effect on ground water, the poisonous BTEX which is both naturally occuring as well as being used in the drilling process, known carcinogenic. It also slices up your land, every well needs to be connected to other wells, compressor stations, pipelines accross the land, holding ponds for the water. You live in a beautiful area, this industry turns you into an industrial waste dump. Lock the Gate, do not allow this industry into your area, you will live to regret it. Your children and grandchildren will look you in the eyes and say WHY?????????? Fight a good fight against this and do not trust legislation to help you, it changes to suit the needs of the industry. Read the all but daily reports of spills, contamination, shoddy practices reported in Qld, you have the heads up, blockade this before it is too late.
