How can the environmentalists accept this dangerous situation. Shame on the council. Will this lead to cancer in local community.

This is absolutely bloody criminal to say the least! It just goes to show that money supercedes above all common sense and as for the councils and politicians whom have approved these blueberry farms to go ahead obviously have to have their heads read. Total DILLS!!!! That's my opinion.

Please stop these greedy people polluting our land and waterways, plus killing off our wonderful wildlife and plants. We do not need these highly toxic, poisonous growings, and why so many terrible sprays to grow a tiny berry? Please help our local farmers, many years on the land before these perpetrators came along for a quick buck, to keep their cattle properties intact and non toxic. Thank you.

Please think about the long term consequences of these farms.. The environment is more important than a fruit product..

Save the Orara River. This is not the first time it has been threatened by reckless and illegal land clearing for fruit growing. Many land owners and wildlife depend on this pristine river for water. I onced owned property fronting the Orara River. It was our life blood. Clean water. Do not destroy this beautiful river.

I thought the post on Facebook that I was about to read would be in reference to mining exploration licences for gold, etc BUT it wasn't - here's ANOTHER threat to the local area!
