Reason for this Petition

This petition of residents of the Australian Capital Territory, is submitted on behalf of certain residents of Collector, NSW to draw to the attention of the Assembly that as local residents of Collector, NSW living within a 10km radius of the proposed Collector Windfarm, we declare that we do not support the development of an Industrial Wind Turbine Installation as proposed by Ratchiburi.

Petitioners therefore request the Assembly to please ensure that the ACT Government does not sign an agreement with Ratch to supply energy to the ACT, noting the lack of support for it by the Collector and surrounding community who will be directly impacted.
