The Association opposed the 2010 Development Application regarding the Dargues Reef Gold Mine by Big Island Mining Pty Ltd in 2010, and again opposed the Modification to that Development Approval in 2015. That experience highlighted some major deficiencies with the development approval process.
If it is not too late, the Association requests these deficiencies be considered by Government, and be included into the NSW Planning Law changes to the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.
