Hunter Transmission Project community drop-in session - Cessnock
EnergyCo is committed to genuine community engagement. That means working closely with all stakeholders to minimise the impacts of the HTP on people and the environment and to maximise the benefits of the project for the Hunter community.
EnergyCo are talking to affected individuals and groups. They value their opinions and try to address their concerns.
They're engaging with the local Aboriginal community to make sure the HTP doesn’t affect any sensitive cultural areas.
They're consulting with environment groups to minimise impacts on endangered ecological communities and threatened species, and to deliver strategic offsets that improve biodiversity values in the Hunter.
They're also seeking input from recreation groups, making every effort to align or realign the transmission line to minimise any disruption to recreation activities in the State forests.
With the community’s help, they want to get the details right as they continue to refine the project ahead of its environmental impact assessment.
Ways to get involved
EnergyCo hold community drop-in sessions and pop-up events to chat about the project, answer your questions and share updates.
The Cessnock Drop-in session goes from 3 pm to 7 pm on Monday 8 September.
