Council to consult communities after major pool review and recommendations

q Tea Gardens Pool closed mid-afternoon on a Saturday.

By Thomas O’KEEFE

MAJOR waves emanated from the recent MidCoast Council-commissioned LGA-wide review into swimming pools, with newly adopted recommendations requiring direct community consultation. MidCoast Council’s nine swimming pools - Forster, Gloucester, Taree, Wingham, Krambach, Tea Gardens, Nabiac, Bulahdelah and Stroud - all received suggested operational changes that Council hopes will make them more sustainable and safer into the future. “Pool usage figures, costs, and safety were examined during the review, and the Royal Life Saving Society also conducted independent safety audits of each pool,” a MidCoast Council spokesperson said.

q The Y’s operating times are updated weekly, via this paper and social media: Closed Sundays and Thursdays, open different hours on different days.

Adopted recommendations include opening and closing all outdoor pools in line with Eastern Daylight-Saving Time, rather than with school holiday dates, subject to agreement with pool operators, and fees and charges will be introduced across all pools. Management of pools at Bulahdelah, Nabiac, Stroud, Tea Gardens and Wingham will be offered to either a community group or small operator. Recent community meetings in Tea Gardens have shown widespread displeasure with the pool’s management under The Y NSW (part of an international organisation), most locals citing the Pool’s odd and ever-changing hours, closed most Sundays, and shut during recent busy holiday periods. “The Progress Association welcomes further consultation and greater detail with respect to a community group operator, and issues of concern include operational and insurance costs, risk management, and reliability,” a Hawks Nest Tea Gardens Progress

Association spokesperson told NOTA. Invited to comment, The Y’s Trudy McEnearney has declined at this time. Historical lengthy explanations on The Y’s Tea Gardens Pool Facebook page have blamed staffing issues and availability. “We believe that community group managers or small operators will be able to meet the unique needs of their community better than larger operators, in smaller centres,” said Council’s Director of Liveable Communities, Paul De Szell.

WIND FARM WORRIES FROM Page 1

wind farms on Thursday 26 October at Hawks Nest Community Hall. Speakers included the Hawks Nest Tea Gardens Progress Association (HNTGPA), the Myall Koala and Environment Group (MKEG), the Save the Myall Coast group, Worimi Aboriginal Reference Group, and Federal Member for Lyne, Dr David Gillespie MP. MKEG’s Richard Streamer provided ecological perspective, citing potential impacts upon all local sea creatures, mapping how the proposed zone abuts two major Marine Parks. “We support alternative energies, but see problems with this proposal, the main concerns being impacts on tourism, commercial

and recreational fishing, shipping, whale and bird migrations, and the effects of seismic testing - all need more research before the developers submit on 14 November.” HNTGPA President Bruce Murray claimed that “the 13.5GW of renewable energy available now is unreliable, making this an enormous investment and environmental cost, ultimately a revenue opportunity for large multinationals, not going to save the planet”. Dr Gillespie reiterated his previous public outings, declaring the wind farms as “bad environmentally on this scale” and “unbelievably stupid”. “Economically speaking, this is an irrational place to put it,” he said. Consensus coalesced on the desire for more

Most community members believe that the original community

The court may consider factors such as the age and health of each party, their capacity to work, the length of the marriage or relationship and the contributions of each party to the marriage or relationship. The court may also consider whether one party has the capacity to pay spousal maintenance and whether there is a need for the other party to receive it.

q Member for Lyne Dr David Gillespie echoes sentiments from recent rallies about the ‘stupidity’ of placing wind farms off the Myall Coast.

Spouse maintenance: Australia's answer to alimony Spousal maintenance is a payment of money from one former partner to another after the breakdown of a marriage or de facto relationship. It is the Australian version of what is commonly referred to in other countries, such as the USA, as ‘alimony’. In Australia, spousal maintenance is governed by the Family Law Act 1975 which outlines the circumstances in which a court can order one party to make payments to the other. Under the Family Law Act, the court can order spousal maintenance in a variety of circumstances. Spousal maintenance can be paid as a lump sum or as a periodic payment; and can be ordered on a long term (final) basis or a shorter term (interim) basis. Generally when considering an application for spousal maintenance, the court will look at the financial circumstances of both parties, their needs and their ability

By Doug CONNOR ADDRESSING the media in Port Stephens last week, for the second time in a month, Federal Opposition Leader Peter Dutton branded the Albanese Government’s handling of the Hunter offshore wind zone a “national disgrace”. Mr Dutton, alongside Shadow Minister for Climate Change and Energy Ted O’Brien, answered the media in Nelson Bay following an excursion across Port Stephens with local fishing and tourism operators. Mr O’Brien was first to speak, claiming that the Federal Government was “steamrolling over local communities” in an attempt to reach a target of 82 percent renewables by 2030. The Shadow Minister then slammed the Government’s consultation process, which he said has shown “reckless disregard” towards the community of Port Stephens. On 4 July, the Minister for Climate Change and Energy announced a review of the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water’s community engagement processes. Eight days later, on July 12, the Australian Government declared an 1854 square kilometre area in the Pacific Ocean off the Hunter as suitable for future offshore wind development. Mr O’Brien suggests the timing indicates the Government knew their community engagement processes to be flawed, but declared the zone regardless. “The Albanese Government effectively conceded there was a problem with the community engagement process when the Minister commissioned a review of that very process, but within two weeks the Minister came out and declared this wind zone,” Mr O’Brien said. “That doesn’t make sense. “If there’s a problem, it needs to be fixed. “You don’t just plough ahead with disregard to the local community. “That is why we are calling on the Albanese Government to rescind the declaration of this zone to fix the broken community engagement

Maitland-Newcastle, commenced service in early 2021. Madie Leeming, from the Diocese, told NOTA, “All parties were notified at the beginning of the term to allow sufficient time for a new provider to commence operations. “We are working closely with the NSW Department of Education and Tea Gardens Public School to ensure a smooth transition, and the Catholic Diocese of MaitlandNewcastle appreciates the inconvenience this may cause to the Tea Gardens community.”

Local parent Sam Anderson told NOTA that “no alternative was offered”. “This is very difficult for someone who’s just re-entered the workforce after finding a decent position in the field in which I trained. “They offered only two online drop-in info sessions, on Tuesday, 17 October, 1pm and 6pm. “OOSH at TGPS allowed me to work as a chef, but next term I’ll be stuck again, we only have a term to organise for next year.” Parents stand to lose work-hours, or must commute to Karuah and back twice daily, where the nearest OOSH service is run by

Karuah Preschool. “Karuah Public School faced a similar crisis last year, but community members spoke to us, we identified significant need in the local community, assessed how we could take it on, and have been running since July 2022,” said a Karuah Preschool spokesperson. “Carers, cleaners, hospitality workers are all younger demographic here, many are parents, and the cost of living is exorbitant, too,” said Jade Watt, Manager of Tea Gardens Boatshed, a parent herself, with several parents on staff. “A little consistency would not go astray in preventing our predominantly younger workers from leaving town altogether.”

process before then reopening for public consultation here in the Hunter,” O’Brien said. Taking centre stage, Mr Dutton said the offshore wind situation in the Hunter was quickly “growing into a national scandal”, claiming the Government “hasn’t done the work” with regards to understanding the environmental impact of potential offshore renewable projects. Mr Dutton also took aim at Federal Labor MP Meryl Swanson, who represents Paterson, for perceived inaction on the issue. “I think Meryl Swanson has been completely missing in action – nice person, completely ineffective in representing her local community,” he said. “Residents that we speak to feel abandoned by their local Member and the Prime Minister should be receiving a hot phone call from Meryl Swanson and from her colleagues to say ‘stop this nonsense’. “I think Meryl Swanson has completely let her community down, and I think there’s going to be a very significant backlash against her and against Emma McBride (Member for Dobell) and Sharon Claydon (Federal Member for Newcastle) and others because they are not standing up for their communities, they’re not fighting for their communities, and I think it’s very obvious that the local people that we’ve spoken to are completely and utterly bewildered by the lack of support from their local members.” In response, Ms Swanson accused Mr Dutton of using the situation in Port Stephens to gain a political advantage despite the Liberal Party’s overwhelming support for the development of the offshore wind industry in the past. “I find it offensive that Mr Dutton blows in to try and score political points when it is me who is serious about reflecting the views of my community and working with Minister Bowen for the best outcomes for the people of Port Stephens," Ms Swanson said. “I certainly have not been missing in action. “Just this week I have had numerous conversations with concerned locals, the Minister, his staff and two windfarm proponents. “I continue to fight hard for my community. “Mr Dutton and his colleagues have been very supportive of offshore wind in the past.” The Liberal leader reiterated that his party was in support of renewable energy projects, but “not at any cost”. “Not where you’re destroying jobs and livelihoods and the environment,” Dutton said. “Why would we seek to destroy the natural environment here to try and save the planet?

“There are other ways that we can firm up renewables. “There are other ways that we can introduce zero emission or low emission technologies into the energy mix. “We have long term sustainable jobs now in the tourism and in the fishing industry, and I’ll give you the Coalition’s commitment: we’re not putting those at risk, we’re not going to destroy these jobs to create some short term construction jobs, we’re not going to destroy the local environment here in an effort to achieve our emission reduction targets.” The Liberal Party’s opposition to the Hunter offshore wind zone is in stark contrast to their support for the Offshore Electricity Infrastructure Bill 2021, introduced under Scott Morrison, which established the regulatory framework to enable offshore infrastructure activities, such as the construction of wind farms, in Commonwealth offshore areas. “The Offshore Electricity Infrastructure Bill 2021 provided a robust mechanism for granting licences to allow the development of offshore electricity projects in Commonwealth waters while providing protections for the safety of workers and strong protection of other maritime stakeholders,” Mr O’Brien said in 2022. In October 2021, Angus Taylor, the Coalition’s then Minister for Energy and Emissions Reduction, praised the ability of offshore electricity sectors to “coexist with other offshore sectors and activities, such as fishing and shipping industries”. “This bill protects these maritime stakeholders by requiring developers to take into account the impacts that potential projects may have on existing users of the offshore area. “Importantly, under the bill, areas will not be available for offshore electricity infrastructure projects if their impacts cannot be appropriately managed and enforcement

action can be taken if licence holders interfere with existing users of a declared area.” Fast forward to October 2023, and the Liberal Party leader appears not to agree with that assessment, at least not in the case of Port Stephens. “I do think when you go out into the waters and see the natural beauty, the bird life, all of that which is at risk, the marlin fishing, obviously, which is a big part of the environment here, when you look at the whales and the mother and the calf that we saw out there, the dolphins, all of that is at risk because there's no environmental consideration of what these huge wind turbines 260, 280 metres out of the water will mean for that wildlife and for the environment.” The Offshore Electricity Infrastructure Act also established the requirements for community consultation on offshore infrastructure projects, including a minimum submissions period of 60 days, which Mr Dutton and his colleagues now claim to be inadequate. Minister for Climate Change and Energy Chris Bowen told News Of The Area it was “rich for Mr Dutton and Mr O’Brien to criticise a consultation scheme which they designed and legislated when in government”. “Once again, they’re putting politics ahead of genuine outcomes,” Mr Bowen said. According to the Federal Government, the Hunter offshore wind zone will create 3,000 jobs in the construction phase and 1,500 ongoing, including opportunities for engineers, electrical technicians, cable installers, boilermakers, crane operators, riggers, divers, seafarers, dockworkers and administrators. It is hoped to generate enough power for over four million homes and be able to support energy security and jobs in existing large heavy industry.

Wind farms require ‘social licence’ By Thomas O’KEEFE

ANXIETY amplifies across the Myall Coast, as residents worry their voices may go unheard on the controversial wind farm zone proposal. When a Hawks Nest information session was run on 9 March by the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water, attendance was barely a dozen residents, despite notice being published in the 2 March edition of NOTA. While it appears ‘silence implied consent’, the opposite also holds, as the Central Coast community of Norah Head proved. Originally the closest land point to the wind farm zone, intense community consolidation, with significant support from all levels of Government, helped affect drastic changes in the recently-declared zone. “We knew about it, just by chance, only two weeks before the submissions closed,” Mr Anderson, of the Love Norah Head community group, told NOTA. “Our notifications were wrapped up in junk-mail on the driveway. “We got our message out quickly, using Facebook, and succeeded because we kept badgering the various Government levels.” Mr Anderson claims that 1300 of the 2000 submissions in March originated from Norah Head, ostensibly verified by their Federal Member Emma McBride’s office. “Our major concern was marine environment impact; our official Surfing Reserve is asking UNSW for a swell survey, checking the offshore wind farms’ impact on surfing in the National Surfing Reserve at Norah Head. “Central Coast Council, like all Councils, knew they must submit by 28 April, and they wrote a good objection to the Federal Government, not supporting it from the start, even as all other Hunter zone councils did.” “It’s not too late,” Mr Anderson reassured. “The Gippsland community engagement was late but still quite strong, and they got it moved off Wilsons Promontory. “Developers actually came and spoke to the Norah Head community, realising that they need to gain ‘social licence’, they cannot truly proceed without all communities being onboard.” Minister Chris Bowen’s office apparently confirms this, stating, “The government will only be licensing projects that work well with existing industry and the environment, and deliver meaningful, long-lasting community benefits.”

Helicopter wreck found off Yaacaba Headland By Doug CONNOR

EMERGENCY services descended on Hawks Nest’s Bennetts Beach last Friday after debris was found in the search for a missing helicopter reportedly carrying 54-yearold Jindabyne man Ed Kraft and his dog. According to NSW Police, the helicopter departed Cessnock at about 8.50am on Thursday 26 October bound for a property at either Wallis Island, near Forster, or Belmore River, near Kempsey. When the helicopter did not arrive at either location, officers from Port StephensHunter Police District were later notified and commenced inquiries. Investigators began conducting an extensive land and sea search around the Port Stephens area, with assistance from Marine Area Command, Police Rescue, NSW SES, Westpac Rescue

Helicopter and Surf Life Saving NSW. As part of inquiries, police examined debris located on Bennetts Beach to establish if it was from the missing aircraft. Emergency services utilised the Hawks Nest Tea Gardens Surf Life Saving Club as an operational base. Members of the NSW SES Stroud Unit and Port Stephens Unit completed an extensive search of the sand. “A ‘Line Search’ pattern was used to conduct the search on foot, north from the Hawks Nest Tea Gardens Surf Life Saving Club, for approximately three kilometres,” a NSW SES Stroud Unit spokesperson said. “We were supported by the NSW SES Mid North Coast Local Commander who provided liaison and communications. “A number of items

of interest were located between the waterline and dunes which were collected by Police for examination.” The search continued in earnest the following day until the Robinson R66 single-engine turbine helicopter was located on Saturday afternoon in waters off Yacaaba Headland by NSW Police with the assistance of Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) transport safety investigators. As of Tuesday, the bodies of the pilot and his dog were yet to be found. The ATSB has since commenced an investigation, deploying a team of four transport safety investigators with expertise in aircraft operations and maintenance to the area. They have commenced a range of evidencegathering activities, including examination of recovered components, interviewing

involved parties and witnesses, obtaining and reviewing relevant recorded information including flight tracking data and CCTV footage, and collecting pilot and aircraft maintenance records, plus weather information. Among the recovered items was the helicopter’s cockpit video camera, which

investigators will analyse at the ATSB’s technical facilities in Canberra. The ATSB currently anticipates publishing a preliminary report, which will detail factual information established during the investigation’s initial evidence collection phase, in approximately six to eight weeks.

The ATSB will then publish a final report, detailing contributing factors and any identified safety issues, at the conclusion of the investigation. As investigations continue, anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Myall Quays shops revitalisation begins By Thomas O’KEEFE

AESTHETICALLY pleasing upgrades have begun around Tea Gardens’ Myall Quays shopping precinct, the façades and features of which had been wearied by time. “After writing to Prosper Group, the property manager for the shops area, since July, we later learnt that an audit had been completed, and contractors were being located,” a spokesperson for the Hawks Nest Tea Gardens Progress Association told NOTA. “The area is our largest gateway shopping precinct and in a degenerating state that requires redress and we will continue to advocate for improvements.” Prosper’s spokesperson, Alex Henderson, informed NOTA that work has been limited by the lack of availability of trades locally.

“We would love to use locals, but have been somewhat unsuccessful in that, however, works are proceeding now,” Mr Henderson explained. “It was originally aimed to be done by last year and we didn’t want the delay, either.” So far, the trees have been pruned, garden beds rewoodchipped, and timber beddividers have been cleaned or replaced, new plants put in and general maintenance underway. Several shiny, new picnic benches also line the mall before the post office, replacing the old, rotted, weather-worn park benches. “We know how that property should present, and want to get it back to the way it should be – this is just the start, we’ve got further plans,” Mr Henderson explained.

q After: Weather-hardy covered metal picnic tables line the side-mall.

“The Progress Association has offered to help with the garden, sourcing and paying for ground cover plants, etc.,” the HNTGPA spokesperson said. “We have also offered to assist with restoring the Dolphin Pond – it is the entry point to town and the shops.” Where a fountain once showered gracefully diving silver dolphins, now the pitifully corroded cetaceans, gasp in the weed-choked reeds and murky mire, and the fountain has not worked for years. The ownership of the Dolphin Pond, however, is a complex, shared situation that appears to have no easy pathway to action, but both Prosper and HNTGPA are keen to get the owners onboard for some beautification out front, too.

Amended Karuah South Quarry development on exhibition

q The proposed site for the amended Karuah South Quarry application is marked in red.

By Doug CONNOR

AN amended State Significant Development proposal to develop and operate a hard rock quarry approximately four kilometres north east of Karuah is on exhibition until November 6. The proponent of the proposed Karuah South Quarry, Wedgerock PTY, seeks to extract hard rock resources from a single extraction area covering up to approximately 7.6 hectares (ha), producing up to 600,000 tonnes per annum of quarry products for around 25 years. The total project site is close to 27 ha. According to the proponent, the project would utilise conventional drill and blast, load and haul and processing methods to produce aggregates, pavement products, manufactured sand, select fill and other products. Plans for the Karuah South Quarry were initially put forward in 2019, however potential environmental issues delayed the project. “In 2019, I submitted a development application for a State Significant Development through the Department of Planning to quarry the front of my property,” Michael Kiely, the director of Wedgerock PTY, told News Of The Area. That project was located directly to the south of the existing Karuah Quarry and to the southwest of Karuah East Quarry. 54 initial submissions were received. Among other community groups, EcoNetwork Port Stephens opposed the project

at that time, citing potential sediment discharge issues in relation to Yalimbah Creek, which flows directly into the Karuah River. The Port Stephens Branch of NSW Farmers and the Port Stephens Shellfish Program also opposed the project, claiming a lack of consultation between the proponent and the region’s prominent oyster industry. In September 2023, an amended development application was submitted, with plans to relocate the project to the extraction area floor of the existing Karuah Quarry, with extraction activities at that operation expected to cease in the near future. As a result, a smaller extraction area is now proposed in order to mitigate visual impacts and increase the separation distance from the operation to the Pacific Highway. The project’s surface water management system has also been redesigned to account for the larger catchment area being used for the development and to capture and store water for on-site use while permitting occasional discharge of water of suitable quality. “We have reduced the environmental impact by 40 percent,” Mr Kiely told News Of The Area. A development report compiled by R.W. Corkery & Co, on behalf of the proponent, states that the “importance of environmental flows to the Yalimbah Creek system has also been recognised in the design of the site”. “The amended project is a largely closed catchment and

water storage dams have been designed and positioned to collect runoff from disturbed catchments, provide storage and where needed discharge. “These areas have been separated from the south of the property to preserve the hydrologic function in receiving waters. “The Applicant has also been mindful of previously identified concerns raised by oyster farmers with the Karuah River regarding water quality of discharge. “The site design ensures that, to the greatest extent possible, environmental flows would be retained and water quality remain acceptable.” The site is located between two existing quarries and the Pacific Highway, which the proponent states will “limit land use conflicts and build upon the existing successful extractive industry development that has been supplying essential construction materials for over twenty years”. “Considering the pending closure of the Karuah Quarry, the project would effectively replace the production capacity of that operation, albeit with both extraction and processing in slightly different locations,” the amended development report states. “Given the close proximity of these two operations it may be considered that the project effectively extends the production capacity of the land for a further 25 years.” The project is located in a strategic hard rock resource precinct that has been

planned runs into Wauchope, with a second run planned in two weeks with an additional 34 trucks joining the effort. Overall, the combined effort of these two runs will see 68 trucks covering a total of 166,964 kilometers, carrying 3,560 bales of hay valued at $338,200. This assistance will

directly benefit 250 farmers, their families and their communities. Despite their commendable efforts, some farmers in the area have unfortunately been unable to receive aid. Linda Widdup, a member of the team, acknowledged the challenges, saying, “It’s

selected for historic development due to the high quality of the material to be extracted and location adjacent to the Pacific Highway. The pending closure of the Karuah Quarry would remove up to 500,000 tonnes per annum of supply from the market. Mr Kiely said the Karuah South project would employ around fifteen people. EcoNetwork Port Stephens President Iain Watt said while the amended proposal was an improvement on the 2019 plan, it still “falls well short on offering benefits to the long-term liveability and sustainability of our coastal region”. “On one hand the new quarry proposal has redesigned the site layout so that around 4ha of vegetation can be retained. “However, it has introduced new ancillary activities that will increase heavy traffic movements, create more noise and dust, and use diesel fuels for operations and machinery. “The surrounding

vegetation will only effectively serve as a visual screening for road frontages, and it is incorporated into their flyrock zone.” Mr Watt also questioned the necessity of another quarry in the Karuah area given existing operations in the close proximity and others in the planning stage. "The proponents have not justified why Karuah South Quarry is warranted above any other existing operational quarry in our region, including their neighbour Karuah East Quarry, which has been approved for operation to 2054. “NSW and Federal government reports show there is no current shortfall of quarry materials and there won't be until around the mid-2030s if today's quarry capacity is not systematically replaced. “The Karuah South Quarry will potentially add another 250+ heavy vehicles to the already proposed increase of quarry vehicles using the Tarean Road access to the Highway. “If all the proposed

Stinker’s History: The airfield that could have been By John ‘Stinker’ CLARKE

Nuclear or wind? DEAR News Of The Area,

THE Opposition leader Peter Dutton and Nationals leader David Littleproud want the government to overturn Australia’s two decade ban on nuclear energy and investigate the use of small modular nuclear reactors to replace the power

currently generated by coal fired generators. Is it a coincidence then that Barnaby Joyce attended the recent anti-wind farm rally in Port Stephens and Peter Dutton has also visited the area recently? Do they have a secondary motive for being in Port Stephens?

MYALL COAST News Of The Area It is acknowledged that an alternative power source would be best sited in the Hunter region with relatively easy access to the power grid. The Newcastle/Port Stephens area satisfies this requirement for alternatives, including nuclear reactors. Could it be that the secondary motive for Dutton and Joyce being in Port Stephens was the

identification of suitable sites in the area for nuclear reactors? Locations such as Pindimar, Bobs Farm, and Fullerton Cove come to mind. Of course they’ll deny it but, what’s the old saying, where there’s smoke there’s nuclear power! Regards, Grant KENNETT, Corlette.

DEAR Jasminda, WE are going on a holiday with another couple -- my best friend and her obnoxious, bigot of a husband. Normally I stay away from him, but we are sharing accommodation. My best friend laughs off his behaviour and says he's harmless. To me his comments and opinions aren't harmless, they are hurtful and damaging. What on earth should I do?

The Write Direction By John BLACKBOURN

A Healthy Constitution HOW lucky we are to have so many constitutional experts giving us free information on how the document works - explaining how they have it right and the rest of us are wrong. I believe that nearly every one of those experts has never taken the time to read that document in full. Even if they did, they probably do not have the legal experience or

authority to interpret it correctly. Whilst the High Court of Australia is seen to be the only legal expert we have when needing to interpret how issues involving our Constitution can be settled, many people extract certain passages from it to help their causes. The Australian Constitution is the set of rules by which Australia is run. It was developed by a British Act of Parliament in 1900 to become effective for Australia on January 1, 1901. The Constitution establishes the composition of the Australian Parliament. It describes how Parliament is expected to operate and divides powers and responsibilities between Federal and State Parliaments. Nowhere does it give any value to Local Government, which has since been developed as a side act to support each State Government to handle day-to-day issues for local areas. As one of those 99.99 percent of

Heidi S. Dear Heidi,

You can't go on this holiday. At best you'll be miserable, and at worst you will potentially lose your friendship with your best friend.

I'm not sure why you agreed to it in the first place. Clearly you are already feeling completely stressed out about what should be an enjoyable and relaxing time away for all of you. Life is too short to put up with bad behaviour. It might make for great television, but this isn't reality TV, it's your life. It sounds as though you've just agreed to go to appease everyone else and maybe that's half the problem. Sometimes it's important to call out bad behaviour and set boundaries. Otherwise situations can end up festering over many years as one person makes more and more concessions and the other gets more bold in what they say or do. Your friend is married to this man and has made the decision to put up with him. You're not married to him, and you don't have to make concessions. If she's really your best friend, she should respect that. Carpe diem, Jasminda

citizens that has not read our Constitution, nor is competent to offer a legal view on its provisions, I still think it is good to have a set of rules that guide who we are and how we should conduct our existence. Our democratic processes are now set in stone as to how we select our governments, and the great majority of my fellow Australians accept these rules. Of the 44 attempts to change the Constitution, only eight have been successful. There are provisions in place to effect change, but the overall majority of our citizens and a majority of our six States must vote in favour of it. If it isn’t broken, then don’t change it, is the sentiment that seems to dominate

that line of thinking. Obviously, needs change in life, but does that convenience replace the ethics and aspirations that saw sound provisions set into law from the beginning? Our Constitution has looked after our nation really well over the 123 years it has operated and has provided very little change. When change has come, the majority has prevailed as the prime mover in our democracy. In life we never get all we want but at least we accept the majority view of our fellow citizens. It is written that way in the Constitution.

An array of arguments against offshore wind DEAR News Of The Area,

I AM a Tea Gardens resident and a member of the Port Stephens Great Lakes Marine Park Advisory Committee. I am also the Treasurer of the Myall Quays Community Association and a member of the Australian Institute of Energy’s Newcastle Branch. I operated my own company for 25 years assessing public and private infrastructure projects. I am writing to express my opposition to the proposed location of an offshore wind farm project off the MidCoast and Port Stephens area of NSW. I am aware that this project is a federal government initiative but it is also my understanding that, if power cables from this project come ashore, then those cables and supporting infrastructure come under the control of the NSW Government. There are a number of strong arguments why the NSW MidCoast area is a poor location for this proposed facility. Newcastle Port is one of the busiest bulk shipping ports in the world. Newcastle Port has started development of its container terminal on Kooragang Island which is now operating and will grow greatly in volume in the future. This will result in increasing shipping movements in and out of the Port. A container terminal in Newcastle has huge potential to service northern NSW

Thursday, 2 November 2023

goods and container traffic via our excellent road and rail connections to the port. The Inland Rail Project between Melbourne and Brisbane has suffered massive cost increases since starting and may not be completed due to these cost blowouts. Goods traffic carried on the completed section of the Inland Rail line as well as the rest of the northern NSW rail network could easily and efficiently be transported by sea in and out of Newcastle container terminal. The federal government is currently spending $160 million to further develop Newcastle Airport into an international airport facility to enhance local produce exports from the MidCoast region as well as international and domestic tourism. Newcastle and the Hunter are enjoying strong growth in domestic and international tourism and its fantastic scenic appeal could be damaged in the longer term by the proposed offshore wind farm. The Port Stephens area is an international standard scenic area of incredible natural beauty and would be adversely impacted by any offshore wind farm arrangement. There are thousands of vessels travelling up and down the Australian east coast each year which could also be adversely affected by the offshore wind farm project. The 300 odd wind towers will not be embedded in the ocean bottom but will be tethered by chains and anchors to the seafloor - what happens if one or more of

these towers breaks loose in a big storm? We get regular major storm events off the NSW Mid Coast and Novocastrians and local residents can clearly remember when the Pasha Bulker was blown ashore at Newcastle a decade ago. Bulk carriers and container vessels move quickly across the ocean and can come from the horizon to where you are in 20 minutes what happens if a loose wind tower collides with a travelling vessel in a major storm event? It is obvious that the federal government is ignoring adverse local opinion and resident opposition to this offshore windfarm project because we have a small local population and are seen as a “safe” Labor electorate. As greater Sydney is the major regional user of power in NSW, why shouldn’t this offshore wind farm be located closer to Sydney? One can just hear the screams if it was proposed to build this project off Palm Beach in northern Sydney or off the eastern suburbs - just imagine Bondi Rescue being filmed with dozens of wind towers in the ocean off the beach area! It is apparent that the federal government is treating our local residents opposed to this project with contempt as we have a small regional population and “just don’t matter”. The cost of building and operating these offshore wind “factories” is much higher than the cost of land based wind facilities and hence the cost to be charged for the power

from them will be much higher than from alternative sources. No matter who produces any product or service for the market, in the end someone has to buy that commodity. It appears to me that the big driver of the international interest in these offshore electric “factories” would be the carbon credits and clean energy certificates that the investors could sell in the market to polluters to offset their carbon emissions. It is interesting to note that Fortescue Metals Group Ltd announced on 26 October in their September 2023 Quarterly Production Report that they have completed the acquisition of the Phoenix Hydrogen Hub in the USA where Phase One proposes an 80 MW electrolyser and liquefaction facility. They further announced that, from FY24 onwards, Fortescue will no longer buy voluntary offsets unless required by law, with the funds saved reallocated to the Company’s own decarbonisation plan and, in October 2023, Fortescue opened a new zero emission battery factory in Kidlington, UK. For these practical reasons I regard the proposed offshore wind farm in the MidCoast region as poorly sited and urge its relocation away from our magnificent environmental treasure that is the Port Stephens and MidCoast area. Yours faithfully, Chris TAYLOR, Tea Gardens.

Palm Lake Songfest fundraises for Red Cross

By Thomas O’KEEFE

SONGS from the heart reverberated around the Promenade at Palm Lake Resort (PLR), Tea Gardens, as the first ‘Songfest’ since the pandemic was held on Tuesday, 10 October. The more than 120-strong local audience was graced with the choral strains of PLR’s local choir ‘Villa Voce’, and a special guest appearance by Lake Macquarie-based all-male singing group the ‘Rathmines/Wangi Singers' (RWS). “It was an unbelievable rollup, fantastic voices all

around, and RWS’ newlyacquired pianist Peter Cummings was excellent,” Allan Anton, a former member of the Rathmines/ Wangi Singers, and current member of Villa Voce, told NOTA. “The visiting choir had all-live music and whipped up a storm with fun-filled performances, inviting very willing audience participation.” All of Villa Voce’s music had also been put together by their Musical Director, and PLR resident, John Davies, of ‘Old Spice’ fame. Attendees were asked for

a simple gold-coin donation at the door, which was collected and later presented as a cheque for $400 to Tea Gardens Red Cross on Monday, 23 October. Red Cross Treasurer Elisabeth Fenton and Secretary Jenny Kelly accepted the cheque and presented a Certificate of Appreciation to the singers. Villa Voce, which is currently conducted by Jill and musically directed by John Davies, has 27 members with an average age of 75 years, and rehearses every week. “We like to have a q

repertoire to go to the community, having performed at various concerts at Estia

Lions Hearing Dogs By Thomas O’KEEFE

LIONS Tea Gardens members learned the life-altering story of an Australian Lions Hearing Dog (ALHD) recipient at their fortnightly dinner on Wednesday, 25 October at Mumm’s On The Myall, Tea Gardens. ALHD was an initiative of two Lions members in the 1980s, inspired by a similar program run in the United States. The recent Hearing Dog recipient, Adrienne

Roberts, was accompanied by Charlestown Lions’ Bronwyn Percy, as well as Louie, the dog of the hour. “Charlestown Lions have supported me magnificently, with no better support person than Bron,” Ms Roberts told the 30-plus attendees. Diagnosed at age twelve with hearing impairment, Adrienne would be profoundly deaf by her 50s. Despite assistant devices including one Cochlear implant, times when her devices are switched off,

such as nights and mornings, are made more secure and safer by a well-trained canine companion. Each Hearing Dog is chosen as a puppy, and costs around $40,000 to train properly, including eight months of socialisation with humans and other animals, then another eight-month period of specific training at the Adelaide Hills facility, the only one of its kind in Australia. A recipient’s house must be rigorously inspected, before going on a lengthy waiting list. For Adrienne, it took nearly two and a half years, delayed by COVID, before obedient and calm borderterrier Louie was finally able to be matched to her on 28 February, 2022 – and then the ALHD people had to train her, too.

Villa Voce at Songfest.

Christmas Carols around the Village – another recent event was singing at Peter Sinclair Gardens on Sunday 8 October,” Mr Anton explained. “Joining a choir and singing is phenomenal for the brain and socialisation, it’s easy, costs nothing to do, and it is believed that Villa Voce is the only SATB Choir between Newcastle and Forster in this age bracket.” Villa Voce hopes to continue their ‘Songfest’ next year, and will be dazzling audiences at the upcoming Lions Christmas Festival on 15 December.

q The Tea Gardens Lions Club enjoyed a wonderful meal at Mumm’s On The Myall.

“Deafness is a hidden thing, it doesn't get as much attention as other situations,” Adrienne said. “Louie is wonderful, and he sends a powerful message, allowing people and health

professionals to be aware of hearing disabilities, and life for hearing-impaired people – I am really lucky to have him.” Local Lions members enjoyed a scrumptious three-course meal from

Mumm’s kitchen, and widely commented that the night was “informative and inspirational” and that it was “good to hear how Lions’ work is helping peoples’ lives”.

UNDER THE VINES

ABC, 8.30pm

The dynamite charms of Rebecca Gibney (Packed to the Rafters) and Charles Edwards (The Crown, pictured with Gibney) cultivate this quirky and fail-safe comedy of characters about suddenly running an inherited winery in New Zealand, with mixed results. While the characters often tread a predictable path, it’s the free-flowing humour that hooks you in. As season two kicks off, the promise of romance between Daisy (Gibney) and Louis (Edwards) always dangles but is yet to ripen, as he makes another gallant attempt to save his flailing marriage.

After the marathon 51 episodes of fervent painting, tiling, setting up candles and/or flowers and general bickering between the contestants, it’s finally time for the moment of truth: auction night! It might only feel like yesterday since last year’s couples gave us both boom and bust tales in the tree-change spot of Gisborne, but now it’s time to find out if Charming Street, in coastal Hampton East, will serenade everyone with fairytale results. If host Scott Cam (pictured) appears a little nervous and sweaty, it’s understandable; real estate is an unpredictable beast. Will millionaire veteran bidder Danny Wallis come out to play? And can this year’s villains, Kristy and Brett, win their happily ever after?

MILLION DOLLAR MURDERS

NBN, 9.05pm

Crime shows and podcasts are a wildly popular genre. From unnerving crime scene photos to witness testimonies and newly discovered evidence, they offer a fascinating, macabre look at the very dark side of human nature. It’s compelling to play armchair detective, putting together the pieces of the puzzling crime to perhaps even solve it. In this cold-case series, retired detective Deborah Wallace (pictured) is unravelling clues to some of Australia’s most baffling unsolved murders, with the backing of local police, in an effort to finally bring closure and put these cases to bed. Tonight, it’s the case of 26-year-old new mother Lynette White, who was tragically murdered in her Coogee apartment back in 1973. 0311
