WHERE DID WE WANT IT? NOT HERE! WHEN DID WE WANT IT? NEVER!

It would appear that the last major external obstacle to York’s rejuvenation has been removed with SUEZ shelving its planned Allawuna Farm project.

The surreptitious demand for this project by a Shire of York clique led by Ray Hooper, approval by the then Elected Member for Central Wheatbelt, Brendon Grylls, ridiculously flawed findings by environmental and administration agencies and the failure of the current Elected Member, Mia Davies, to heed the personal appeals from the second largest town in her electorate- has been stymied by the will of the people.

Was it a commercial decision as the WA Managing Director of SUEZ, Niall Stock says? No it was not!

Allawuna Farm was an $8 million single project commenced by SITA nearly four years ago. The June 1, 2016, $87 million acquisition of Perthwaste was a total market-share repositioning by SUEZ who had rebranded its local company, SITA Australia, under the world-wide parent company’s name in 2015.

Stock was told by SUEZ not to proceed with an unnecessary project that was likely to cause public condemnation from here to eternity.

Stock claims that the Allawuna Farm project was acknowledged as an environmentally safe and appropriate development for this site. No it was not. Even the Premier, Colin Barnett, had some strong reservations regarding the site’s suitability.

The SUEZ ‘feel the love’ descriptions of waste management as recycling and re-use solutions and resource recycling did not apply to the Allawuna Farm project. It was to be strictly a huge hole in the ground to be filled with domestic and commercial waste, and asbestos.

Its only recyclable resource would have been the 99.9 per cent Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Methane and Carbon Dioxide with 1 per cent of unknown gases. Both Methane and CO2 are asphyxiates with Methane highly flammable. Both are toxic to humans and animals in high concentrations.

What the other gases would have been and how toxic? No-one knows!

SUBJECT :- PRESS RELEASE

SUE-US DUMPS ALLAWUNA DUMP


Leading contaminate recycling and dross and grot resource convalescence and rehabilitation purveyors, SUE-US, formally known as SHITA Australia has dumped the dump known as the Allawuna Farm Land-Fail near York.

SUE-US State General Manager, Nail Toxicstock, said the decision was made for commercial reasons, not because of water pollution problems, earthquake concerns, land degradation factors, seriously adverse atmospheric conditions, road fatality possibilities and Mercury, Venus and Mars were not in alignment, as the company had acquired a new waste-dump toy, PerthCrap.

“While the Allawuna Farm debacle was acknowledged as environmentally safe and appropriate for the site by those who had received our very generous handouts before enjoying a free holiday flight with Pig Airways, the PerthCrap acquisition delivered additional infrastructure to SUE-US in Western Australia, which allowed us to remove any possible desire by the people of York to bury my front lawn in 5,000 tonnes of sheepshit”, Mr Toxicstock said.

The $87 million purchase of PerthCrap became effective as of July 1 and has expanded the SUE-US contamination portfolio in WA with additional infrastructure including a polluted landfill at North Bannister, two infected waste transfer stations, two poisonous materials recycling facilities, two used drug needle depots and a decomposing facility.

“SUE-US is excited by our ever expending big and dirty footprint which allows us to deliver innovative and efficient rubbish collection, contaminant recycling and regurgitation solutions to even more local authorities, commercial customers and the broader community in WA” Mr. Toxicstock said.

  1. A much deserved slap in the face for all the York Councillors involved in the dodgy 'dump' deals secretly going on behind Shire closed doors with Ray Hooper.

    You all got it wrong!

  2. MIA didn't have the power to stop the Landfill, but she does have the power to agree to pumping treated??? sewerage into the aquifers for future generations to drink.
