The Environmental Protection Authority has commented on the general energy supply question and attendant issues in a report on the proposed Collie Power Station (Environmernal Protection Authority Bulletin 472). A private power generation option was proposed near Mount Lesueur, in an area previously proposed for nature... Read more...Last updated: February 6, 1992
