Thanks for sharing.

LOL QLD... Super Cool compared to da West Side

The only place more hardcore than WA is an little island off the coast which is being used as the basis for Australia Largest LNG Plant.

They inspect every zip, pocket and shoe.

Then test the scrapings for plant, seed and other matter.

Add Trich pachanoi to thata list too... :-(

Used to work for Chevron on Barrow Island rebuilding and servicing all the oil pumps.

550 oil wells and counting, plus water injection sites, plus the "traffic"of all the aLNG processing from offshore all on an island approx 35 x 5kms yet they intend to leave no footprint and damage no ecology?

Pfffft!

Glad I am heading into horticulture and sustainable development!
