Warkworth Coal Mine Continuation

I believe the mine consent should go ahead as it supports lives of workers,and pays for the education(through familes) of the up coming adults of the comunity that will be the charge and carers of the lands we leave behind.

We need to support the mining companies that provide employment for many of our local people both directly and indirectly.

I support it,We need people in jobs.

i support it,Its good job for us young people in the Hunter.

I wish to support this project for social and economical benefits the hunter needs these jobs and with these jobs comes better local economy.

It will benefit our local economy.

without mining in the local area there will be higher unemployment adversely impacting on the local community

I think mtw should go forward because it is one of the heart and soul of the working industry in singleton, it supplies a lot of industries around the singleton area eg. The butcher, the baker and the candle stick maker. Singleton depends on mining it is a mining town, I have lived in singleton all my life for 46 years, when I was younger the town depended on the farming industry we know depend on the mining industry I would like to see mining continue in the hunter valley because coal is the future and for the future generations as long as we have the right ecological balances

I support the extension for MTW because my dad works out there and he needs his job.

As a resident of the hunter valley I believe that the extension is very important to the social and financial future of the region, the closing of such an important job source will be felt a lot further than just the mine site. Many small business in the hunter will shut or move to other areas in Australia or even overseas, costing the nsw government even more money, not included welfare being higher in area, plus probably an increase in crime with people not affording to live in hunter

I am against the extension in its current form

I believe the mine should go ahead but not how it's setup now

All properties in the Bulga communities are being devalued by this extension and with no financial assistance
All the people effected should be offered to be paid out and offered to be helped pack up and resettle

I've just spent $100000 on my property over the past two years and I had valued and it has gone up by $10000 a absolute joke as the mine is not offering myself a buy out
If they did I'd be gone in no time

My property is constantly effected by noise and dust
I don't use my clothes line and constant kept awake with noise levels exceeding the maximum and the mine sometimes take a hr or two to quieter the pit down

Not good enough

The whole pit should be shutdown straight away and the maximum levels need to be lowered so there bearable

Rio tinto made a agreement with the community that it would never come across the Wallaby Scrub rd which now they do

There word is worth a piece of shit

The government should never allow this sort of stuff to happen

We need to support the continuation of the mine to secure the future of the community.

I am proud to say I have worked at MTW for the past 8yrs and in mining in the Hunter Valley for 9yrs. I moved here from WA with my disabled son, to give myself and my family the opportunity to live a more product and stable lifestyle. Working at MTW has given me just that.
MTW are like family to me. We rely upon each other. It is a huge comfort being gainfully employed and in turn being valued for the work you do. I have always had a strong work ethic and have never worked for a company who looks after their employees as well as they do and who gives so much back to the greater communitee, in so many ways.
We need this extension granted, PLEASE save our jobs and the hundreds of others, who ultimately, will be affected due to the flow on if MTW shuts down operating.

I rely on MTW to provide my place of work business!! I am a boily and without the growth in the mining industry my livelihood is in jeopardy!

I rely on MTW to provide my place of work business!! I am a boily and without the growth in the mining industry my livelihood is in jeopardy! Please approve this extension!

My family, friends and colleagues rely on the continued operation of MTW to sustain our way of life.

For the growth of the region

Mining and the environment is critical for NSW people and full consideration must be given to all aspects of health. environment and how it effects any local people.

Mines must work with the local community, but a minority of NSW people must not be allowed to effect the life style of the majority of people of NSW .

Without a strong mining industry for NSW, We cannot afford our teachers and nurses, These people should also get behind this project extension.

lets be fair safe and honest and keep the NSW economy strong so our people can live life to the fullest

I support the continuation of mining in this area
