Anger on fuel price response

Collie shire councillors reacted angrily to a claim by then-state Consumer Protection Minister John Kobelke that average Collie prices were only 2.7 cents a litre dearer than those at Bunbury.

Councillors described the response from Mr Kobelke on the issue of high regional fuel prices as “a slap in the face for the people of Collie”, “a pretty weak response”, “jargon” and “a joke.”

Muja deal critical to pine project

Major Perth-based pine pallet manufacturer Pinetec wanted Western Power to buy pine waste from its proposed new Collie plant for burning at Muja Power Station.

Such a deal would have overcome one of the biggest hurdles that held up Pinetec’s $10.5 million move to Collie.

Joint citizens of the year

Emergency services volunteers Jay Hewson and Monika Nicholson were named Collie’s joint Citizens of the Year for 2003.

The announcement was made before a crowd of several hundred at Collie’s Australia Day breakfast.

Marroners battle to bag limit waited

Fishers at popular South-West marroning spots were battling to reach the daily bag limit of 10 marron caught per day.

This came after the drastically shortened 2003 marron season opened, according to the Fisheries Department.

Then-southern supervising officer Peter Geoffrey said most marroners were taking home an average three to four marron a day.
