PAGE is encouraging the State Government and its agencies to devise more sustainable and visually acceptable alternatives to Powerlink\'s current proposal for giant power pylons through Eerwah Vale and a substation at Eumundi in the Sunshine Coast\'s hinterland, Queensland. The organisation is doing this by reviewing issues such as alternative routes for the transmission lines, renewable energy options, energy demand management and undergrounding the lines. PAGE\'s suggestions address the short to medium term needs of the electricity network, while seeking viable and sustainable long-term solutions that are more in keeping with Government and community thinking.

PUT THEM UNDERGROUND. It is 2018 not 1950. We shouldnt be putting ugly steel eyesores all over our gorgeous hinterland.

Ridiculous proposal. Think about the local wildlife and the character of Eumundi. We dont want this.

Total disaster for Eerwah Vale. Please look at the alternatives instead of rushing this through.

Ruining the landscape for no good reason. Not in our backyard.

Keep our valley beautiful. These massive towers will absolutely ruin the view and property values in the area. Find another way.

Why do they always pick the path of least resistance through our backyards? Wrong spot for a substation.
