  • Why Tasmania Needs the Meander Dam
    Why Tasmania Needs the Meander Dam Meander Dam Report 2003 Acknowledgement This document has been produced and published by the Water Resources Division of the Department of Primary Industries, Water and Environment. Special acknowledgement must go to the people of the Meander Valley who agreed to be interviewed and photographed for this report. As well as pointing out the social, economic and environmental benefi ts of the Meander Dam proposal, the publishers trust this report accurately portrays the community’s aspirations for a vibrant and sustainable future. Why Tasmania Needs the Meander Dam Construction of the Meander Dam will provide jobs, raise economic prospects and narrow the social divide by giving young people a reason to remain part of the Meander Valley community. If it is built, the Meander Dam will provide: P More jobs for Tasmania’s young people P Increased agricultural output and exports P A more viable and profitable farming sector P An improved standard of living for a vulnerable rural and regional community P A healthy river environment P Water-based recreational and tourism opportunities The Meander Dam is supported by a diverse range of stakeholders, including the Government of Tasmania, the Parliamentary Liberal Party, the State’s Labor and Liberal Federal Parliamentarians, Local Government representatives and the State’s peak farming and agricultural bodies. The Meander Dam is an essential infrastructure project that will lead to a more vibrant, prosperous and environmentally sustainable Tasmania. It has the potential to make the Meander Valley community strong, proud and confident. 3 A Community at a Critical Point “The rural sections of the Meander Valley community stand at a critical point where solutions must be sought urgently to protect their economic and social future.
