Inkerman Landfill Facility

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:52): Supplementary question: assuming that local residents are still aggrieved, what is the course of advice the minister has for them to feel that they can make representations?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:53): As I said, I am advised that the EPA's community consultation period closed on 25 September. That doesn't mean that any members of the community who are still aggrieved can't take up further communication with the EPA. The period that they set for the community consultation has closed, but I would be very surprised if the EPA turned away any community member or any further correspondence on that matter. As I have said, the EPA has determined, in accordance with the licensing conditions, the approval for the combustion event in the presence of the CFS and the MFS, but a date has not yet been set for that. Of course, that date would then need to be approved as being appropriate for the weather conditions at the time.
