I wish to lodge my objection to AGL's proposed extension of time for the commencement of work on the proposed gas fired power plant project at Dalton (DPP), NSW. AGL have not provided sufficient cause for extension.

The community distrusts them. This has been acknowledged by the Department of Planning who noted AGL's appalling community consultation.

AGL have not supplied adequate time for an appropriate response.

AGL will rely on an Environmental Assessment that is 7 years old and does not include recent discoveries including the population of endangered Southern Pygmy Perch in Oolong Creek less than a few kilometres from the proposed construction.

This is a new proposal and needs a new assessment. AGL received its original approval under legislation repealed in 2011 after a corruption scandal that brought down the then NSW government. By repealing this legislation, the NSW Government acknowledged corrupt and unfair practices, such as undisclosed political donations made during the assessment of the original Dalton proposal and for which AGL have been convicted and fined. Hence it may be argued that the original assessment and approval were made under a defective head of authority which does not provide a legitimate basis for the project.

The rate of development of battery and alternative generating technologies is such that in two years' time a gas-fired generator may well be obsolete and, if built, a stranded asset.

AGL would appear to be pursuing a flawed and obsolescent if not obsolete business model. The whole-of-life cost of this project to the government and citizens of NSW may be an impediment to growth in this state. This proposed development is at odds with the electricity market now and in the future.

Finally the construction of this power plant will close down the business of Vince & Janet Heffernan at "Moorlands" Dalton who supply me and my family lamb. I object to this loss and this destruction of their business.

Thank you

Although I am 'pasting' a submission that I am sure others have submitted I wholeheartedly agree with the submission as it is written and have looked into the matter seperately.

I wish to lodge my objection to AGL's proposed extension of time for the commencement of work on the proposed gas fired power plant project at Dalton (DPP), NSW. AGL have not provided sufficient cause for extension. Their dishonest and illegal failure to declare Political donations, particularly in light of the call-in powers under which this project were approved, make this impossible at an ethical level to approve. It must not be extended. AGL's wish to `modify' the initial plan in an `open ended fashion' smacks of arrogance that we, the Australian people, should oppose. There is no reason AGL should not have their proposal scrutinised as per the normal process of approval. They are asking for an open ended "modification" option. AGL are not working with the community, are not fulfilling the conditions of the initial approval and must not be allowed to extend approval of this project.
This approval impacts me through the loss of product from my lamb supplier, if it were to proceed.

Thank you
