With so much arid land in the country which is isolated from populations and food producing areas, and not connected to the major waterways and catchment areas, they suggest building this wonderful facility near Wiruna, probably because some landholder has seen this as a way to make a quick dollar (read here 4 to 5 times the actual current value of their land).............
One would think it would be obvious that such a venture should be kept away from any area which drains its water into larger waterways. Sally's Flat water runs into the Macquarie River, to Lake Burrendong which is a recreation area.
Wavy, You haven't actually stated whether you agree with the siting at Sally's Flat or not and you haven't given any reasons for or against ..... perhaps they could site the 'Dump' at Killara and save transport costs .....
