Logue Brook Dam Dialogue!

My spies tell me, that there's a meeting to be held in Harvey somewhere on Sat 22 July, with regard to any future fishing access for Logue Brook Dam once it goes back to a drinking water dam.

Apparently it's by "invitation only" and the number of invites is being 'controlled' in some way to try and influence the outcome toward no access at all!

I believe someone called Felicity on 1300 369 809 is in charge of issuing the invites!

Despite having rung and expressing interest and being advised an invite would issue for my young fella and myself to attend, - nothings yet been forthcomming with 9 days left to go!

Perhaps Terry F or someone else knows whats happeneing in this regard and would care to chip in?

Seems like just another Govt "done deal" behind closed doors, secret arrangements again at this point in time!!

Don't know what else anglers can do - when the odds are so heavily stacked against them at the outset!

I guess maybe Anglers could just turn up en mass uninvited if they are deliberately being excluded from the process - maybe blockade the entire town with boats and trailers or something and get the media chpoppers down there to expose the backroom deals being done for all too see!

Wouldn't mind hearing from anyone who knows more than I do already about this supposed "secret" meeting!

Cheers!

Logue Brook Dam public meeting

Fri, 2006-07-14 12:59

It originally started out as by invitation only to "scientific random sample" of ordinary people, but has since been opened up with email invitations to more people and public notices.

There was an advert in Wednesday's West Australian Page 47 - gave that number 1300 369 809 to call.

More details and links, email addresses, transport, etc are on http://www.westernangler.com.au/forum/Logues_brook_dam_and_other_access_to_SW_drinking_water/m_105607/tm.htm

I don't know what happens when people ring and what confirmation people get or not..... Haven't called myself because I have too much else on....
