Community

We value input from Gippsland communities and are excited about the benefits Star of the South would provide for the region.

Consultation

 

Involving people from the very beginning is the best way to make projects better. Consultation with Traditional Owners, stakeholders, local communities and landholders is continual and ongoing.

At key stages we run formal consultations to seek feedback on specific activities or decisions which can be influenced by community feedback – but we’re always available and open to hearing ideas and feedback.

Consultation is an important part of our environmental assessment process. We’ve prepared a plan which sets out our approach to community consultation during the preparation of our Environment Impact Statement (EIS) and Environment Effects Statement (EES). Read the EIS/EES Consultation Plan (PDF, 5.2 MB).

Our Get Involved consultation website has information about opportunities to provide feedback.
