A Beautiful Day for Industrial Drones

5.45am. 18 February 2011. Near to the Great Ocean Road, Port Campbell, Victoria

It looks like it is going to beautiful morning; the sun is overcoming its shyness and rising out of the black and there is no wind. The country air has been laundered by the night and the occassional bird is moved to song.

But the birds have plenty of competition. The gas plant(s) is roaring. Drilling into our brains. Good morning Port Campbell (we would normally email a complaint to the EPA but considering this would be our 61st complaint for 2010-11 we've given up on doing that.)

About Us

Hi,

we live on the coast in south-west Victoria (Australia). We're near to the renowned 12 Apostles and the Great Ocean Road. For some four years we've been fighting against Woodside and Origin, just two of the companies that were inexplicably granted permission to build gas plants within sight of Victoria's Great Ocean Road. They make our life hell with noise and gas flares and explosions of sound that shake buildings more than a kilometre away.

Of course, as a lone voice it's very difficult to get authorities to listen; not even the EPA seem interested in battling Goliath. Anyway, enough sop. We thought there must be other people like us who have been rogered by the lies, deceit and mis-placed self-righteousness of big business.

So, if you've been shafted, let us know We'll keep you updated with our fight along the way

sincerely

Rogered
