It is concerning that aerial fire fighting is completely omitted from mention in this modification. Presumably this is because Aviation Projects don't see any possibility of aerial fire fighting aircraft ever entering the project area.

We note that the impact to the Namoi BlackJack radar is unresolved. This radar is used constantly by our community to monitor impending weather. Is the community aware that this will no longer be a useful tool? What plan does TILT have to resolve this issue.

Aviation projects list the ALA's that will be impacted by the 173 turbines. Are the owners of these ALA's aware of this? Or will they only learn the impacts when the project is complete. If Aviation Projects knows of the existence of the ALA then they know who to contact regarding impacts. Just burying this information in Mod 3 Appendix K is unacceptable.

The cumulative impacts of this project remain unaddressed and unresolved.

I object I object I object.

There are still 173 too many turbines.

Put this project in the already destroyed environment in our major cities.

Protecting two land hosts homes from visual impact of transmission lines is a joke, what about the countless people impacted who did not choose this. Anyone who chooses to take part should have to wear the full impacts, not cherry pick the ones they will suffer.

The cumulative impact on this community will be irreversible.

The photomontages presented in this modification should be re submitted without the 'fish eye' lense which deliberately makes the turbines look smaller. These turbines will be unnatural monsters on our landscape and highly visible from our town. Tilt need to make public the photomontages without distortion.

What does TILT propose for fire fighting given that no aerial fire fighting will take place in the entire project area? No mention by the aviation "experts" on aerial fire fighting despite a whole appendix on aerial impacts. Do all the owners of the ALA's listed in this aerial appendix know anything about the impact of the TILT turbines to their ALA? If Tilt knows of the existence of the ALA they know who owns the ALA.

12 turbines down and 173 to go! Good on the land hosts who had the foresight and courage to remove at least 12 of these monsters.

It is noted that some of the land hosts have rearranged the transmission lines so they don't see this infrastructure from their homes. Pity about those who did not choose this destruction and have to wear the visual, health and business impacts of transmission infrastructure just to get the transmission line out to those same land hosts who prefer not to look at them!

Of concern is the stated impact to the Namoi Blackjack radar. No resolution by TILT, will we see one?

Nothing in this modification regarding the impact to aerial fire fighting, guessing that means this will go the same way as the Namoi Blackjack radar, part of our past and not in our future. No pilot will consider it safe to fly around the 173 turbines, 112 transmission towers, 7 Microwave towers and 10 wind monitoring towers in a smoke filled sky.

Still nothing about the decommissioning, the only certainty is that the land hosts will be expected to fund it.

Yet Tilt manage to weave into the modification the latest catch phrase "intergenerational equity", I wonder how that looks when thousands of trees have been bulldozed in the name of the open cut mine for quarrying material, new roads, widening of roads, transmission towers, substations, cement batching plants and the turbines plus associated towers.

Cumulative impacts? no more aerial fire fighting, no more Namoi Blackjack radar, destruction of native vegetation, endless diesel for bulldozers and trucks, endless water for making concrete and dust suppression and no affordable reliable electricity.
