Subject: THANK YOU - Planning Assessment Commission rejects Coalpac project

The review panel of the Planning and Assessment Commission have unanimously rejected the Coalpac Consolidation Project proposal entirely. The open-cut mining propsal threatened to rip and destroy a large part of the Ben Bullen State Forest, the western gateway to the iconic Gardens of Stone, NSW.

This outcome has been achieved thanks to the help of this wonderful network of encouraging supporters.
A big thank you from me and everyone else at the Blue Mountains Conservation Society.

The Dept of Planning will now write up its Environmental Assessment for the Director General, then a second panel of the Planning and Assessment Commission will make a final decision.

For now, enjoy the rewards of our collective work that helped the community of Cullen Bullen immensely.

Attached is the copy of the Department of Planning's media release.
