Mallee Wind Farm

Given the area’s flat terrain, the project could alter natural water drainage, increasing flood risk for nearby properties.

Turbine installations have been known to cause fatalities in birds by killing them with the blades, impacting both local and migratory species.

Large amounts of water will be needed for construction, potentially straining local water resources

Clearing native vegetation for the project may impact bee and insect populations crucial for local crops. Bat will be greatly affected by these turbine, they will not be able to hear.

I have spent a lot of my professional career in the area and OBJECT to the proposal on the grounds that it will destroy habitat and visual amenity that cannot afford to be lost and WILL impact on existing protective mechanisms such as nature reserves.
This area is FRAGILE and must NOT be impacted by these industrial proposals.

I support renewal energy projects in Australia including wind farms. However, this project appears to be too close to townships and the river system. I am not satisfied that the project is in an appropriate location in terms of its impacts on social, amenity (visual, noise etc) and water aspects.

Stop destroying farming land for unreliable and intermittent forms of energy.
The destruction to farming land, the environment and rural communities by renewable infrastructure will be absolutely disastrous and irreversible.
Stop this nonsense now before it is too late.

Stop destroying agricultural land.

I object to these projects. I object to the destruction of rural Australia. I object to the destruction these being to primarily farm land that provides Australia with food and fibre. These projects are destroying the spirit of rural communities through division.

These forms of energy are not proven; they are unreliable and intermittent. Stop destroying our rural landscapes, communities and our environment with these projects.

These projects are not only detrimental to our health, but also the health of livestock and wildlife. The plastics that come off the blades will slowly destroy the health and lives of all surrounding living things. The toxic run-off from the blades will impact our crops and livestock. As soon as word gets out that our food and fibre has been contaminated within a radius of these structures, that will be the end of the Australian ag industry as nobody will want to purchase from these properties. Why is it acceptable that rural Australia be lumped with these burdens?

These are toxic structures that will destroy not only our land, but the health of our livestock and communities.

These projects will make aerial firefighting impossible in the case of paddock / bush fires, thus endangering lives.

There is too much research coming out now outlining the dangers this infrastructure has on the health and safety of not only humans, but our animals and environment.
Our government must put a stop to this before it is too late.

waste of resources and money, counterproductive - see attached document.

projects like this are no good for rural communities in NSW. Keep them out and put them closer to the cities. protect our landscapes, wildlife and lifestyles!
I object to the overall destruction this project will cause.

Refer to attachment.

I Object Vehemently to Mallee Wind Farm proposal.
What race Invaded an Island they named Australia without Permission or Consent from Local Inhabitants, Inhabitants who Had Held a Land Pristine for Over 67, 827 years. Unfortunately the dirty filthy white people from Britain claimed an island it's own. Which island ? How many ? All inhabited, All inhabited by Indigenous here for over 67, 827 years.
Get the dirty filthy race off the Precious island Unfortunately claimed by British, a filthy race, yes yes yes, bringing their filthy ways to the World, the World, sadly.
No Respect White Race be Off this Land now named Australia, in the Wrong Hands Absolutely.
We need a Different Future.
It's Organic and Is. To offer the Next 8 Generations the Care we must offer a Dry Continent now from now Hey.
How do you reduce Emissions ?
1. Protect Wetlands Inland Australia. Understand why. Lots of Carbon Sequestration in that!
2. Cease Renewables On Country On Farmlands In Wilderness In Oceans Immediately Now in Australia and Worldwide.
3. Cease Chemicals. Work it out.
4. Grow Organic and no other.
5. Use Less being No AI, No SMART, No 5G, No Internet using 5G.
6. Living Simply being us all quite Awake to the individuals we are all Contributing to Harm and Loss to a nation named Australia, Inappropriately Managed.
7. Grow Trees En Masse and Stop removing them now from now.
8. Clean up Waterways, the Dumps to most of us who are Ignorant about our every way of life and its Impact upon our waterways and those of the World.
9. Less gov.au employees.
10. More Green Armies growing Trees and Plants, Plantations, Forests, Food Forests etc etc etc.
11. Eat what grows On Your Nation and not from any other.
That Will Reduce Emissions here and Worldwide.
We won't need any more Renewables, especially 3 Bladed Wind Turbines Harming Our Environments Dry Continent named Australia.


I Object Vehemently to Mallee Wind Farm proposal 16km NE of Buronga in the Murray region, and 17 km north east of Mildura, Spark Renewables Claim “providing enough renewable electricity to power 450,000 Australian homes on average, over the course of a year.”
Comment: Over the course of A Year ? What ? Don’t you Get It nsw.gov.au ? Wind farms are Unreliable over a year – a year.

Cease Now Mallee Wind Farm, a Not Need upon Sacred Land. Yes. Upon Sacred Land.

Protect Mildura Wetlands Region from Mildura to Menindee to Leeton to Burra, SA Immediately from 3 Bladed Wind Turbines/Farms I Demand.

Aren’t you knowing the Mildura Region waters the Murray River Catchments to the Sea, to the Sea, the mouth to the Sea, the Southern Pacific Ocean, gov.au?
Do you understand?
No.
Cease your way of offering 3 Bladed Wind Turbines/Farms upon the Sacred Catchments of the Murray Darling Basin, the Sacred Murray, the Sacred Murray, the Sacred Murray. This Region Mildura to Menindee to Leeton to Burra, SA, is a Nationally Significant Region that Must be under Protection from renewables.

God Be Protecting the Region Mildura to Menindee to Leeton to Burra now from Now.

God Be Present To Assist Cessation of renewables On Country Sacred, Mildura to Menindee to Leeton to Burra Country. Wetlands that Water the Murray, Sacred, Yes, Sacred, Yes, Sacred.

Research 3 Bladed Wind Farms please. They Dry the Land aka Soil. Do you. Understand?

Protect Inland Vital Wetlands Murray Darling Basin from 3 Bladed Wind Turbines Now from Now.

First announced in 2022, the Mallee Wind Farm initially proposed to install up to 150 wind turbines. Down to 76 turbines, 280m tip height, yeah right ! Stop Fooling us who Protest 3 Bladed Wind Farms and Know Why, and Know Why. It Says 76 turbines hey ! 76. 76. Not 150. This is In View. 76 turbine proposal.
And to feature a containerised BESS, Dear God! Don’t you Know what batteries do to Catchments, nsw.gov.au? It’s a Reason to Ban them Now from Now, it Is, Is.
Who is Claiming this please :- “a containerised battery energy storage system would offset up to 2 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually”. Sparks Renewables ? Investigate them thank you nsw.gov.au. What do BESS offer please, and How are they Made, please? Add the Journeys from Raw Materials to from the country they are made to to to and to ports in Australia to Regions Outback Australia. I Do Demand a Moratorium on 3 Bladed Wind Turbines and BESS Immediately. Figures are conjured up, how, gov.au? Needs a Inquiry.
When are you going to Protect Wetlands and Plant Trees En Masse to absorb CO2 instead, gov.au?

Cease and Desist Mallee Wind Farm proposal and Declare the Region Mildura to Menindee to Leeton to Burra a Nationally Significant region, Sacred Murray River Wetlands.

https://reneweconomy.com.au/community-meetings-for-proposed-victoria-wind-farm-cancelled-due-to-safety-concerns/
Acen Renewables, has cancelled community information sessions for a proposed wind farm in central Victoria citing unspecified “safety” concerns. 
The developer was supposed to be pitching to communities in the Buloke shire in central Victoria
Acen Renewables said: “Due to safety concerns, our planned Corack East Wind community information sessions on 26-27 November and 3 December have had to be postponed…The company declined to provide further details or reasons for its safety concerns, but members of the Wimmera Mallee Alliance Facebook group pointed to a group of protesters outside the session in Wycheproof on Tuesday as the potential cause of the developer’s discomfort….communities along the VNI-West line scared by a badly mishandled consultation on the transmission line…AR is also the proponent of the heavily contested 900 MW Robbins Island and Jim Plains wind projects in north-west Tasmania, which the Bob Brown Foundation and other groups are vigorously opposing.
Do you understand what’s going on, gov.au?
When will you?
You need us.
You do.
Next 8 Generations Do.
How Will you Explain what you are Doing to Our Nation, the Driest Continent on Earth you have NO idea how to manage do you?
You are Ignorant and a Threat to Ours and Next 8 Generations Futures. You Must All Resign, and Immediately, thank you.

Keep this out of rural NSW. We don't want them. They will destroy our small communities, businesses, homes and ways of life. They are an absolute monstrosity on the landscapes

Wind Away Wentworth (WAW) is a community group formed to advocate in relation to the wind, battery and solar projects seeking approval in Wentworth Shire.

WAW believes Wentworth Shire is an inappropriate location for wind turbines given Wentworth Shire:

- is a fast growing municipality
- is a tourism hub for South West NSW; and
- features significant natural assets such as the Murray Darling system, wetlands, Mungo National Park and the Mallee Cliffs National.

It has not yet been possible to hold a public meeting for WAW given the timing off the EIS exhibition. WAW seeks to make additional submissions after a public meeting which will be held after the holiday season at end Jan or early Feb 2025.

Yours sincerely

Bob Wheeldon
Convenor

I object to this project. The proposed industrial wind turbines will ruin the beautiful views the local residents and communities have loved for their entire lives. These structures will destroy the landscapes in such a way that they will have negative impacts on tourism and therefore impact local economies. There are also the negative health impacts these industrial wind turbines will have on the nearby residents. Living so close to these is not safe.

i object to the Burrendong Wind Farm project.
the community and wildlife seem to have no say in this and i am acting as a voice in support of them. this project will destroy the landscape and health of nearby residents and wildlife/livestock. They did not ask for this, so they should not have this project forced upon them.
additionally the koala populations in this area needs to be protected. I doubt a resident would be allowed to develop on the hills and build a number of homes or sheds, so why should Ark Energy be allowed to develop wind turbines? There is no reasoning to this logic.

The Mallee wind farm is another wind monster development that city voters won't accept anywhere in sight of their own homes. It will wreck regional natural and rural landscapes, destroy native habitat and undermine community cohesion.
At 30% capacity it will only provide power for 2 full days per week. This will contribute to the severe ongoing degradation of the east coast power grid, due to the replacement of baseload power with unreliable region wrecking 'renewables'.
