MOD 1 - Increased Processing Capacity, Additional Wastes Streams and New Shedding

Thank you for the opportunity to provide comment on the above Modification. As the site is located downslope of Prospect Reservoir with a large earth bund associated with the Sydney Water supply pipeline between the site and the Reservoir, WaterNSW considers the potential for impact on our assets and Special Area is low, and therefore have no comments or particular requirements.
WaterNSW requests that the Department continue to refer proposals for comment that have the potential to impact on our land, assets and infrastructure using the email address Environmental. [email protected]

I wish to add my name to submissions list against Cleanaway's amended application to build Western Sydney Energy & Resource Recovery centre or as we the residents know it as - Toxic incinerator. Each time Cleanaway, Dialadump or any of the 4 other companies that are trying to force this development onto the residents of Western Sydney come back with amendments the original idea is the same - burning toxic rubbish to make poisonous pollution. There are no benefits to local residents if they die because of toxic fumes being breathed in. Cheap electricity isn't that cheap if you are dead. The idea of a 24/7 operation turning waste into electricity is a dangerous concept if it means killing residents, or worse giving them cancers so they linger in agonising limbo for years. These companies keep trying to get their ideas approved but they don't change the base concept of TOXIC incineration. The evidence from overseas models of this type of incinerator should be enough for any government to block this development, why must residents continually have to fight these companies for their right to live without being poisoned. I live in Penrith, but the pollution from this development will impact my health as all Sydney's pollution gets carried by winds and gets trapped by mountains to hover over Penrith. I refuse to be forced out of my region due to the short sighted vision of politicians that do not live in this area, therefore will not be poisoned.Politicians that make decisions based on money and not facts are dangerous people to have in leadership

Please see attached letter outlining issues of concern

This will affect the air quality in my area
