Western Victoria Transmission Network Project EES

Published on 16 November 2021

Continuing Council's efforts to keep the Pyrenees community informed about developments with the Western Victoria Transmission Network Project (WVTNP), we can report that  Ausnet has just released information pertaining to the Environmental Effects Statement (EES) that will be prepared as part of the project. 

Interested parties can now download five EES Preliminary Information Sheets that outline the existing conditions for: Agriculture & Forestry, Biodiversity, Geology & Contaminated Land, Historic Heritage, and Landscape & Visual.

Understanding the existing conditions within the project area of interest is the first step towards developing the impact assessment reports that will be part of the EES. 

You can find the five downloadable PDFs at this link.
