‘Major pollution incident’: Toxic sludge poisons pristine Sydney river, expert says

The NSW Environment Protection Authority warned about the pollution two years ago but has made no attempt to clean it up.

I agree - this 'Environment Protection Licence' in reality is a licence to pollute. And by the way, EPA charge nearly $1000 a week to regulate this! app.epa.nsw.gov.au/prpoeoapp…

(1/2) Lithgow yesterday with Channel 10's Hugh Riminton. A nuclear power station is an unacceptable risk to Sydney's drinking water catchment (Warragamba). Risk of a major accident or leakage might be remote. But consequences could make the water supply undrinkable, forever.

Sydney water catchment expert, Professor Ian Wright, says the Coalition’s plan to put a nuclear power plant at Mt Piper, poses an “unacceptable risk” to Sydney water safety. Details ⁦@10NewsFirst⁩ 5pm

The risk of a major accident or leak of radioactive contamination from the proposed nuclear power station would be very small. But the consequences would be catastrophic for Lithgow, NSW and all of Sydney. To manage this risk - don't build it in a drinking water catchment!
Hugh Riminton@hughriminton

His reasoning is that Mt Piper sits atop the Warragamba catchment, where 90% of Sydney’s water comes from. He says even the “minute risk” of a major malfunction is unacceptable because it could contaminate Sydney’s water “for multiple generations.”

Walking amongst the walk up flats - wouldn’t they be so easily civilised by more landscape & trees…& less driveway & concrete.. @RandwickCouncil had an excellent policy to try to improve them, but what’s happened? Really planning needs to prioritise tree planting & urban shade
