The BESS introduces life-threatening chemical risks (HF, heavy metals, PFAS), irreversible environmental damage, fire hazards, and national security vulnerabilities.

DPHI’s modification shortcut is completely unacceptable; full exhibition is essential.

This proposal is a public health and environmental disaster waiting to happen.
BESS present irreversible contamination, fire hazards, toxic gas emissions, and short-term energy storage, demanding exhibition, not a rushed modification.

DPHI’s modification process is unacceptable.
Proper exhibition and IPCN review are essential.

BESS release hydrogen fluoride, contain PFAS and heavy metals, are unsustainable short-term energy sources, threaten food security and human lives.

Manildra Solar MOD-3 is not minor.
Lithium-ion BESS are toxic, fire-prone, and CCP-supplied.
The bushfire assessment is deeply flawed, and there is no risk research on public health, requiring full exhibition.

Message
This is a misguided and dangerous project.
The hazard analysis ignores PFAS release, lithium-ion thermal runaway, and irreversible contamination, while the SIA dismisses community mental health impacts.
DPHI must conduct proper Exhibition.

The DPHI’s fast-tracking is grossly negligent. Lithium-ion batteries are toxic, short-lived, and fire-prone, release hydrogen fluoride, and threaten biodiversity and agriculture.
Exhibition is the minimum legally and ethically required step.

This modification attempt is completely deceptive. The SIA, Bushfire Assessment, and hazard reports are desktop fantasies.
The BESS presents life-threatening fire hazards, permanent land contamination, and grid instability, all requiring full Planning Portal Exhibition.

Message
The BESS is economically and environmentally unsound.
Lithium-ion batteries fail after 10–15 years, leak toxic chemicals, inevitably burn and can’t be extinguished - emitting life threatening fumes.

There is no essential decommissioning bond, therefore, burdening landowners and council.
DPHI must require proper exhibition.

Manildra Solar has never included energy storage. DPHI’s modification route is a breach of procedural integrity.
Hazard analysis ignores fire plume toxicity, irreversible soil contamination, and lack of recycling plans, which must be publicly exhibited.

DPHI’s approach is irresponsible.
Lithium-ion BESS have a short operational life, present thermal runaway hazards, and exacerbate PFOS and heavy metal contamination already present at Manildra Solar.

The community deserves full exhibition and independent assessment.
