The noise generated by the turbines will be constant and intrusive. This will affect our ability to sleep, work, and enjoy our rural area, leading to increased stress and health problems

The potential for fires is a major concern. Our region is already prone to bushfires, and the addition of a turbine installation could exacerbate this risk, endangering lives and property. We do not want a fire here with a hot west wind.

The visual impact of the subsequent transmission lines and the turbine will detract from the natural beauty of our area, which is a key attraction for tourism. People love to holiday in the wide open spaces. This could negatively impact our local economy.

These turbines will cause transmission line to be built. I am concerned about the impact of the transmission lines on the critically endangered Regent Honeyeater (Anthochaera phrygia). These birds are already struggling, and further habitat disruption could be catastrophic

I object to the Mallee Wind Farm because of the location. Obviously major road traffic delays will occur, but more importantly this is a predominantly a low wind area. Solar farm is far more suited to this region of Australia.

The risk of fires associated with the turbines cannot be overstated. Rural towns have limited firefighting resources, and a large-scale fire could devastate our community and surrounding ecosystems

As a farmer, I am concerned about the impact on the critically endangered Small Purple-pea (Swainsona recta) and the endangered Superb Parrot (Polytelis swainsonii) that inhabit our area. This project threatens their habitats and could push these species closer to extinction. I'm worried Turbines will make the swift parrot extinct! There is only a few hundred left in the wild and many many turbine in their flight path an nesting, area they won't survive

The constant noise from the turbine blades will affect not only humans but also local wildlife. Species such as the endangered Malleefowl number are dropping they are a ground dwelling bird.
they could be driven away from their habitats, further endangering their survival.

The installation of the Turbines will bring high voltage transmission lines close to our community. Not only is this a visual blight on our landscape, but it also poses significant health risks due to prolonged exposure to electromagnetic fields

I am deeply worried about the constant noise that the installation will generate. Our quiet rural life will be disrupted, affecting our mental health and wellbeing. Moreover, the increased risk of fires is alarming, we already live in a high fire danger area. This project puts our homes and lives at risk

Hi,
I am concerned about what the Mallee Wind Farm will do to our beautiful region. I propose that the Mallee Windfarm be set back further from the Gol Gol & Buronga communities.
