Opposed

Can you see any benefits or opportunities related to the environment for offshore renewable energy projects in this proposed area?

No

Do you have any concerns related to the environment for offshore renewable energy projects in this proposed area?

Yes

Please list your key concerns.

I grew up in Port MacDonnell and have had family members make there only living from the fishing industry which has all helped develop the community and township of Port MacDonnell to be what it is today.
We see the Offshore Turbine project as detrimental to not only lively hoods, but will affect Tourism, Marine Life and wildlife and be an absolute eyesore.
The Humm created by the Wind Turbines is said to create damage to the Whales, birds that migrate through out seasonal periods affecting marine life and natural migrations. This will Create irreversible damage to marine life and affecting the local fishing industry which serves as the largest Rock Lobster fishing fleet in the Southern Hemisphere.
If you support Wind or solar energy you cannot be an environmentalist. Landfill and resources taken from our environment that distribute poisons and pollution to our soils and water ways are just some of the damages following the creating of Wind Turbine towers.
Please reconsider before destroying this beautiful town.
