  • Moorabool Shire Council Submission to the PADR
    Niluksha Herath 26 June, 2019 Manager Western Victorian Renewable Integration RIT-T Australian Energy Market Operator Via electronic lodgement File: 13/03/010 [email protected] Dear Niluksha, MOORABOOBL SHIRE COUNCIL SUBMISSION - WESTERN VICTORIAN RENEWABLE INTEGRATION PROJECT ASSESSMENT DRAFT REPORT Introduction Moorabool Shire Council (the Shire) welcomes the opportunity to provide a submission in response to the Western Victoria Renewable Integration Project Assessment Draft Report (PADR). We thank the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) for their recent briefing and the opportunity to provide this submission. The Shire recognises the importance of this significant renewable energy infrastructure project and applauds AEMO for commencing a project that has the potential to provide significant community benefit including increased employment opportunities, not just for Moorabool Shire residents but more broadly across Western Victoria. The Shire is generally supportive of renewable energy, which is evidenced through the substantial number of wind farms that are both operational and under construction within the municipality. However, the Shire is also mindful of achieving a balanced outcome where the amenity of the Shire is not unreasonably compromised by the visual intrusion that such infrastructure projects can have on the landscape and angst this causes within the community. As per our recent briefing from AEMO, it is understood that there is currently insufficient capacity within the existing transmission infrastructure to enable the amount of proposed renewable energy generation in Western Victoria. As a result, AEMO is undertaking a Regulatory Investment Test for Transmission (RIT-T) to assess the viability of increasing transmission network capacity in the Western Victoria region, to facilitate the efficient connection and operation of new and existing generation in the region.

Photos: Dean Anthony Creswick Creek Footbridge The new walk-ride bridge across Creswick Creek, adjacent to Melbourne Road was officially opened on Friday 19 June by Hepburn Shire Mayor Cr Kate Redwood AM. The $120,000 bridge was fully funded by the State Government and links the existing walking trails and provides safe access across the Creek. The 20 metre long bridge is constructed of a galvanised steel frame, aluminium panels and timber deck and has been built above the 100 year flood level. Assistance with the official cutting of the ribbon was given by Cr Don Henderson, GDTA Past President Alison Lanigan and Creswick Tourism representative Margaret Giles. Cr Henderson said that GDTA was a key community group that had given ongoing concerted reminders to Council over 20 years about the need for the bridge. Cr Henderson was instrumental in finally securing funding for the bridge and completing the project and the GDTA appreciates his enthusiasm and effort in providing a safe crossing for walkers and riders along the Goldfields Track in Creswick. Other GDTA members at the bridge opening were Brian Lanigan, GDTA Treasurer and Glenda Dimond, along with representatives of several community groups and government organisations, including Siobhan Rogan, Area Chief Ranger Ballarat and Paul Fernandez from Parks Victoria, several Hepburn Shire Council representatives, walkers from Creswick Walkers and students from Creswick Primary School. The students were given the honour of being the first riders to officially ride across the bridge.

  • Darley-Power-Fight.Pdf
    Response to the Renewable Energy Zone Development Plan Directions Paper I am contacting you to provide feedback on the State Government of Victoria REZ Development Plan Directions Paper with specific reference to the Western: V3 Project, the Western Victoria Transmission Network Project (WVTNP) North Ballarat to Bulgana. This project involves constructing a 500kV overhead transmission line from North Ballarat to Sydenham. The project has been identified in the REZ Development Plan Directions Paper as having a ‘High Risk’ of delivery for the following reasons: • Project within greenfield area therefore vegetation clearing required. • Infrastructure close to sensitive areas • Conflicting land use • Potential conflicting regarding future residential development. • Potential community concerns regarding increased visual impacts and environmental impacts. The proponent for the WVTNP, AusNet Services, has identified an Area of Interest (AoI) and has further narrowed potential corridors, one of these is immediately north of Darley between existing residential and the Lerderderg State Park. I am the spokesperson for Darley Power Fight, a group representing communities in Darley, Coimadai and Merrimu, Victoria. We are in full support of Renewable Energy Zones provided associated projects are delivered through effective stakeholder consultation with consideration of communities, the environment, and economic impacts. The current regulatory framework does not consider the projects disbenefit and only considers project cost versus economic benefit

They are reflections of how Aboriginal people engaged with their world and experienced their surroundings and are the product of thousands of generations of economic activity, material culture and settlement patterns. The landscapes we see today are influenced by the skills, knowledge and activities of Aboriginal land managers. Parks Victoria acknowledges the Traditional Owners of these cultural landscapes, recognising their continuing connection to Victoria’s parks and reserves and their ongoing role in caring for Country.
