MEDIA ALERT: BROOME COMMUNITY NO GAS CAMPAIGN

2nd August at 22.30. For the first time in 12 months the Broome Community have successfully turned back a convoy of equipment heading to the Woodside compound on Manari Road. This evening a convoy of trucks carrying lighting equipment and a huge crane returned to yards in the town while protestors celebrated the power of community determination. The two people locked on earlier today released themselves after Police told them there was a tourist needing urgent medical treatment. But they were replaced by a turtle blocking the entrance to the Woodside compound on the side track off Manari Road. 2

Police have issued the person locked on to the turtle with a move on notice and cordoned off the area. Police specialists are expected on the scene as early as 6am. For more information contact Nik Wevers on 0417998598. For an idea of what the turtle looks like, check out the No Gas Facebook site on http://www.facebook.com/BroomeNoGas

Woodside doing it hard at James Price Point

Broome Community No Gas Campaign

We have a lock-on. At 9:30 am this morning, a convoy of vehicles including 3 semi trailers, a 90 tonne crane, 1 fuel truck and 5 security vehicles has been held up by a community blockade south of James Price Point.

The convoy was headed for the site of the proposed Browse LNG facility near James Price Point near Broome.

Phillip Roe Goolarabooloo Law Boss stated " I will continue to fight for our country and culture, the WA Governement can change laws to suit themselves, Woodside can fight us with their millions of dollars, but we wont give up.

The Secret Out

The season of Larja, the season of built up for the wet, is now moving along and away from country. The winds strengthen from westerly to north – westerly during this time. Gubinge (Terminalia ferdinandiana) and the white gum gunurra (Eucalyptus) Corymbia flavescens are in flower. It was a great year for bush honey. Stingray, reef and shellfish were fat. Turtles are now mating. Country is eager and waiting for the arrival of Mankala, the wet. Strong north-westerly winds and cyclones (wirdu wangal) will blow throughout this season. Ngaliwany (Persoonia falcate), gabiny (Terminalia ferdinandiana) and magabala (Marsdenia viridiflora) are all heavy with fruit. Flying foxes are all out getting fat on the fruits of this season. Kangaroos are skinny, as are the shellfish. Bush honey will be hard to find. Turtles are now laying eggs.

And the enemies of Country, Woodside, Western Australian State Government and now the Broome Shire Council are all in cohoots, determine to destroy Country. They can try and hide behind their corrupt paperwork and their moot deceitful processes. They can imagine that they have the God given right the rip Country away from people and destroy biodiversity because of their blinding ambitions to satisfy their greed, their selfish orientated egos without any thought for future generations, our community, our Country and our planet. They are dreaming up a nightmare for their own children. It is not going to happen! Dream on!

I can't see you torn apart

Jabirr Jabirr traditional owners signing a Heads of Agreement with the Premier Colin Barnett and Woodside Chief Executive Don Voelte at James Price Point, the area we have been told is the location for the proposed Kimberley LNG hub. Goolarabooloo the Native Title Claim Group, who currently have a Native Title application lodged with the Federal Court waiting determination, refused to attend or sign off their country, heritage or their culture. Until there is a determination handed down no one has the legal right to sign anything.

Kimberley LNG hub at Quondong or James Price Point? What's the truth?

Redhand queries whether it is James Price Point that is the focus of the proposed location of the Kimberley LNG gas hub, or is it in fact Quondong Point?

Consider?

The Northern Development Taskforce Site Evaluation Report October 2008 set aside Quondong Point and did not include it in the 4 sites to be further considered on heritage, cultural, social and environmental grounds

The Worley Parsons Resources and Energy Site visit Report 20 November, 2008 (for the Department of Industry and Resources) showed 3 locations at James Price Point, the third and south location indicated the hub inland from Quondong Point.

The Environmental Protection Authority’s report Kimberley LNG Precinct Review of potential sites for a proposed multi-user LNG processing precinct in the Kimberley Region December 2008 interestingly refers to the James Price Point Area which covers about 20 kilometres of the coastline and “considers that a site towards the northern end of this area (between James Price Point and Flat Rock) may have less impact on the main fishing and camping areas between Quondong Point and James Price Point”.

The $1.5billion Agreement (between Traditional Owners Jabirr Jabirr, Goolarabooloo and KLC, the State Government and Woodside) last week was reported as an agreement to locate the hub at James Price Point but no specific details have been released to the media by any of the parties. Nor was there clarity about the area covered by the Agreement.

During the recent negotiation for that Agreement, Redhand alerted to the maps showing Woodside’s operations area, the maps dated 17 March 2009 indicated Quondong Point as the hub location.

At that time the Premier Colin Barnett denied that Quondong Point was to be used and that the focus was on James Price Point. (ABC news and radio 27 to 30 March 2009) reports.

Woodside’s 2008 Full Year Results Briefing by Don Voelte Managing Director and CEO 18^th February, 2009 on page 37 shows Google Earth Maps. Quondong Point has been incorrectly labelled as James Price Point. This is not an error. This is misleading information to the public and to Woodside’s shareholders and other stakeholders.

Quondong Point is at 17^o 34’ 41.59” S and 122^o 09’ 14.48” E and James Price Point is at 17^o 29’ 01.63” S and 122^o 08’ 30.20” E ?

Well you might say that a short distance of 12 kilometres makes little difference to the overall concept, the point is, are we being lied to? Where actually is the proposed location of the Kimberley LNG precinct? Quondong Point? Or James Price Point?

The Premier said it wasn’t Quondong on ABC Radio and Woodside’s CEO in his briefing to the market indicates it is despite incorrect place names on the maps, and publicity around last week’s Agreement doesn’t say. Who is telling the truth?

Don't Lose Heart

Like alot of people Red Hand has been very disappointed and somewhat dismayed by the news that the Traditional Owners have signed an Agreement in Principle in support of a gas precinct on the Dampier Peninsular. Red Hand believes that there are alot unanswered questions.

Given the fact that James Price Point currently has two over-lapping Native Title Claims Jabirr Jabirr and Goolarabooloo registered under the Native Title Act. How then did the Government, the spin doctors from Woodside or KLC understand who actually has the legal right to sign off on this country, if it is still pending in the courts for determination?

It was understood throughout the negotiation process that the decision making would be based on a consensus decision making model not a majority vote. This was preferred to ensure that process would not be railroaded, open to political manipulation or stacked by certain families. Why then was this meeting conducted on majority rules principles?

Is it true that one major claimant group walked from the meeting refusing to take part in the vote?

Is it true that during the voting process at this meeting certain people openly abused and intimidated other participants?

Is it true that many of the participants had no legitimate rights to be at this meeting as they are not on the existing Native Title Claims but are signatories to other Claim areas on the Peninsular?

Who are the signatories to this document?

Is it true that there was no Legal representative at this meeting to provide legal advice or over see the counting of votes?

Is it true that nothing has been actually signed?

Is it true that the Agreement document is still being drafted?

What is the actual location or area over which this purported Agreement necessitates?

How can KLC honestly represent the current Claimants in the Native Title Tribunal if they are actively working to sell the very same country?

Will the minutes, list of participants and the outcome of this meeting be available to the public or will it require application under Freedom of Information Legislation to access to this information?.

Red Hand has never wanted to get involved in the Indigenous politics of this issue because the focus has always been the protection of the environment and Standing Up for the Planet. However, Redhand believes that a lot of people have been greatly disheartened over the events of the past week and the misinformation and lack lustre media reports.

Don’t give up. It will be a long hard struggle to educate, inform and convince people that industrialisation of the Kimberley Coast is not an option. In ten years time, water will be far more valuable than gas. You can live without gas, but not water, just ask the people on the east coast!

Hands Off Country Stand Up for the Planet

Barnett to Open Helicopter Port at the Broome International Airport,

On Thursday, the 26^th March, at 12 noon. Barnett will be in Broome to open helicopter port at the Broome International Airport.

Apparently, the Broome International Airport Management are frantically ringing around town, seeking traditional owners to welcome Barnett into country.

In additional, there are five Woodside Maps being currently circulating around.

Map 1. Operations Only

Map 2. Operations and Construction

Map 3. Full Expansion, Operations Only

Map 4. Full Expansion, Operations and Construction

Map 5. LNG Precinct – Entire Precinct

However, Redhand questions whether these maps are a red heron, circulated to discredit both the indigenous and environment groups! Should we view these maps with a grain of salt? Although, the maps are labelled Woodside the format and legends appear very similar to Department of Planning and Infrastructure maps!.

Hands Off Country has sighted Map 1 and 2 which clearly shows that the Operations and Construction site for this 25 Mtpa Gas Plant will not be located at Walmadan (James Price Point) but at Murrjal (Quondong Point).

The entire precinct will stretch from Biningankuny (Coulomb Point Nature Reserve) to Kardilakan Jajal (Barred Creek) with the estimated 6000 – 8000 square hectares not the 1000 – 3000 hectares we all have been lead to believe. According to the maps sighted: up to seven trains will be operated, a main road cut through from the Derby Highway, desalinations plants, seven kilometres of jetty and break water constructions. Once, Red Hand has a bloggerable size copies of these maps, they will be posted.

Meanwhile, the local quarry has been asked by Woodside for a quote on 2 million tons of road base and 80 thousand tons of rock.

James Price Point, Fragile Pindan Tableland

Pindan is a collapsible silty-sand or clayey-sand soil that occurs extensively in the Kimberley region of Western Australia, and is typically red in colour. James Price Point, the proposed location for the LNG Gas Hub will be basically built on a Pindan tableland. Pindan is usually considered deleterious, but many pindan display a self-cementation property upon dryback during construction, with a substantial strength gain in dry moisture conditions which was thought to be due to the bridging effect of clay in the pindan. This strength is lost upon re-wetting. The use of pindan sand-clay presents particular problems where it could be subject to dynamic or vibrating loads such as foundations for large motors and generators, since these could destroy the clay bridges when the material is dry and cause a collapse. Collapse potential can be minimised by ensuring that the pindan is compacted to a high asdensity as possible (100% standard MDD), but cannot be avoided entirely. The material may well still densify (and strain) after construction and continued exposure to the vibrating load.

The interests we are up against are MASSIVE

The following email was send to Redhand from John John
The interests you are up against are MASSIVE. You need to make sure that you know who you are going up against and get SMART with your campaigning.

Research is important, so is developing a strategy to win support from people not just in WA, but the world over.

Book: Indigenous Peoples: Resource Management & Global Rights

Book Description
Rapid industrial development and urban growth increasingly threaten indigenous peoples and their ways of life. As a result, a grassroots movement is spreading among indigenous cultures, and the 1992 Rio Earth Summit catalyzed a UN legal investigation. Indigenous Peoples challenges the assumption that these processes are empowering indigenous peoples in tangible ways by examining the ongoing work, and offers a detailed analysis of the legal, political and institutional implications. This volume is an engaging study of the issues involved in indigenous peoples' rights.

Book: Rethinking Resource Management: Justice, Sustainability and Indigenous People

Book Description
This book offers students and practitioners a sophisticated and convincing framework for rethinking the usual approaches to resource management. It uses case studies to argue that professional resource managers do not take responsibility for the social and environmental consequences of their decisions on the often vulnerable indigenous communities they affect. It also discusses the invisibility of indigenous people' values and knowledge within traditional resource management. It offers a new approach to social impact assessment methods which are more participatory and empowering. The book employs a range of case studies from Australia, North America and Norway.

Conoco, Karoon fire on Browse gas hunt

On the 26th the Western Australian were repoorting that ConocoPhillips and Karoon Gas Australia plan to this week spud the first well in a $150 million drilling program aimed at discovering the latest massive gasfield in the Browse Basin.

In what is shaping as a pivotal year for companies with Browse Basin acreage, operator ConocoPhillips (51 per cent) and Karoon (49 per cent) are using the Sedco-703 semi-submersible rig for a 200-day program, starting with the Poseidon-1 well.

The partners have plans for up to five wells, with each likely to cost $30 million. The partners have high expectations, given their WA-315-P permit is close to the 12 trillion cubic feet Ichthys gasfield discovered by Inpex and Total and near Woodside Petroleum’s fields, Torosa, Calliance and Brecknock, which are thought to contain about 18tcf.

Analysts have described the Browse Basin’s high strike rate as a case of not “if they find gas, but how much”. Karoon’s shares have risen sharply since bottoming at $1.64 in October in anticipation of the drilling program, and closed at $2.80 on Friday.

Although the company floated on the Australian Securities Exchange five years ago ostensibly as a coal-bed methane gas exploration company, the Browse Basin acreage and the fact ConocoPhillips is its partner has aroused investor interest.

The basin’s prospectivity has attracted most of the world’s big oil and gas companies, although the challenge of developing discoveries continues to be an industry concern. Given the high level of environmental concern about gas processing developments on the Kimberley coastline, the various Browse Basin acreage holders are increasingly considering either floating development options (like Royal Dutch Shell and Nexus Energy) or a tie-back to existing infrastructure.

Woodside will decide by the end of June whether to construct a pipeline to link its Browse Basin fields to existing liquefied natural gas plants on the Burrup Peninsula. ConocoPhillips already operates an LNG train in Darwin and has room to expand.

Should the WA Government’s proposed Kimberley LNG hub concept fail, then ConocoPhillips would be expected to follow the lead proposed by Inpex and pipe any Browse Basin gas to Darwin.

ConocoPhillips and Karoon are still years off being able to make a development decision, assuming that Poseidon-1 and subsequent wells strike commercial quantities of hydrocarbon.
With the State’s hard-rock industry closing mines and laying off thousands of workers, WA is hoping the oil and gas sector will provide some economic relief during the current upheaval by continuing its active exploration and development program.

Nexus, hard-hit by its failure late last year to secure Japanese trader Mitsui as a principal partner for its $1 billion Crux project, remains confident of securing a new investor this quarter in what is likely to shape as the precursor to a final investment decision for the liquids play.
Nexus owns 85 per cent of Crux, which contains proven and probable reserves of 75.2 million barrels of light oil, but wants to offload about half its stake to reduce its risk profile.

Broome International Airport Environmental Vandalism

In 2008, the Broome International Airport built helicopter hangers on the salt marsh as you enter Broome. At the time of construction concerns were raised with the EPA about the pindan and the amount that had been dumped over the delicate and vital salt marsh, in order to lay foundations for this construction. This video clearly demonstrates the pindan erosion and the subsequent bleeding of the pindan over the salt marsh and into the mangrove eco-communities. Broome at its highest point is only 7 metres above sea level. This construction is on sea level and subsequently is incredibly vulnerable to the rising sea levels, because the mangrove community, (which they are killing) is the only barrier that is currently keeping the sea at bay. This is the beginning of the gas industry invasion into the Kimberley coast. Hands Off Country Stand up for the Planet

It's ridiculous that no study was done to determine if there would be damage done to the mangroves. The mangrove forests around Broome are vibrant ecological communities which form part of an ecotone between the land and the bay. Of all tropical mudflats studied Roebuck Bay has the greatest diversity and abundance of invertebrate life. Roebuck Bay is home to a variety of marine turtles, dugong, dolphins and a great diversity of fish. It is also a key location on the East Asian-Australasian Flyway for migratory shorebirds - visited by 100s of thousands of birds every year. It's a global treasure and cries out for respect and conservation. Given the thoughtless damage to the mangroves, can anyone be trusted with a major development like a LNG hub in the same locality and environment? Comment from Save the Kimberley

Can't build a footpath, how about a gas hub?

......"Redhand is currently at the corner of Clementson (Street) and Port Drive in Broome. What we would like to illustrate to you today is how pindan reacts when a slab of concrete is placed on top of it. Now this pathway is only 3 months old and already you can see huge damage in regards to erosion. Now, pindan is a very difficult sand to work with and James Price Point is basically all pindan. Redhand questions, do we have the technology and the ability to put huge amounts, slabs of concrete over pindan and believe that it is stable? Now this is a very simple illustration, but a very clear illustration of how pindan reacts when it has got concrete placed on top, ......and we have rain."

Hands off country

Environmental damage at Woodside's base in Broome

........"Redhand is currently down at the Woodside site near the Broome Port. What Redhand would like to show you today is that this simple compensation basin which has really only seen one 'wet' has completely and totally eroded away. They've currently got a generator on at the moment, a pump to try and pump the water out and as we pan around this very small compensation basin you'll see that the workers are frantically trying to fill in the hole. Redhand questions that if this Company does not have the engineering ability or understanding of how to look after and work with the environment and pindan then how can they honestly be entrusted to put an LNG gas hub on the Kimberley coast if they cannot make

a simple compensation basin without this type of wanton environmental damage?"

Urgent repairs to the compensation basin at the Woodside site at the Port of Broome following rain from Cyclone Billy. This is a new compensation basin and Broome has not had significant rains this wet.

Beagle Bay Blockade 10th Nov 2008

Albert Wiggan on behalf of major stakeholders: Stolen Generation, Beagle Bay Community Residents, Leaseholders and residents greeted the Department of Indigenous Affairs representatives (standing under the tree beside the road) and Northern Development Taskforce representatives, Duncan Ord and Gail McGowan with a refusal to enter Beagle Bay.

Albert Wiggan: "We don't want to engage in any decision making process until we have generated our own governance."

The meeting then went on to talk about an understanding of how the community can be represented so that the people can be heard. Concerns about Western Australia's Premier Colin Barnett's public preference for North Head over the Northern Development Taskforce site evaluation process were also discussed.

This meeting at Beagle Bay went for a few hours, the video of just over 10 minutes has been split into 4 parts.

All video on Hands off country is unedited. Over time we will have each video transcribed. Further videos will become available of the other meetings held on the Dampier Peninsula this week. Downloading takes some time so thanks for your patience.

Lombadina Welcoming Signs

Some of the welcoming signs to greet Northern Development Taskforce into Lombadina when they arrived to discuss the LNG gas hub proposal on the Kimberley coast.

Kimberley Land Council Sits at Woodside's Table

It has come to the attention of Eyesoncountry, through a very reliable source that whilst the Dampier Peninsula communities were standing up for their country, their lifestyles, their culture and heritage with representatives from NDT, even to the point of blockading entry to Beagle Bay, KLC have been in Perth, negotiating with Woodside, bartering with the hopes, dreams and aspirations of all the Indigenous people living in Dampier Peninsula.

Only last week, KLC’s CEO was on the Peninsular meeting with some leaseholders and Beagle Bay community members supporting them to directly bring their major objections and grave concerns about the proposed LNG Gas Hub and the North Head site to the NDT’s representatives at the proposed meetings the following week. KLC were aware that NDT were seeking to inform people of their intention to drill. At no time did the KLC's CEO inform people about being at the table with Woodside.

In addition, our source informed us that Don Voelte, CEO, Woodside has the following options up their sleeves:

• The Burrup is achievable but the Browse gas would need to be processed through the joint venture LNG plant with additional trains built to existing infrastructure (not Woodside’s sole operator plant Pluto)

• Floating platform is a very serious option. This is the cheapest option and will be the way of the future (generally speaking) to give more flexibility. LNG deposits are becoming increasingly smaller and this option makes sense for the future direction of the industry. The problem at this stage is that the technology is untested and would be built at considerable risk

• And of course North Head and apparently Perpendicular is still on their agenda!!!!!

• According to our source, the Beagle Bay Blockade was the first time Woodside’s CEO had heard that there was an Indigenous problem. Apparently, Woodside had honestly thought that KLC had won the hearts and minds of all Indigenous people.

We understand that KLC is a Prescribed Body Corporate that represents Traditional Owners, however, Eyes On and Hands Off Country believe that KLC have an ethical duty of care to ensure that all Indigenous people have an equal say in something that will change their lives, their culture and heritage forever.

KLC, Woodside, Northern Development Taskforce, State Government Departments, Premier's Office and the Department of Indigenous Affairs, when are you going to be open and transparent, consult and inform all major stakeholders: Traditional Owners, Leaseholders, Stolen generation, long-term community residents?

What part of country are you negotiating over?

At what point in this ”process” will the people of the Peninsula’s objections and their categorical “No’s” be heard, listened to and taken seriously?

Please view for yourselves, people’s adverse reactions to the prospect of a gas hub on the Peninsula.

Barnett facing fresh conflict of interest claims

Premier Colin Barnett was facing fresh conflict of interest claims in his State Development portfolio last night after it was revealed that his daughter-in-law Sasha Pendal works as a senior executive with gas giant Woodside.

Mr Barnett has insisted that Environment Minister Donna Faragher refer issues concerning Woodside to Planning Minister John Day because her husband Scott Faragher works for Woodside in government relations.

Ms Pendal, who is married to Mr Barnett’s son Russell, is Mr Faragher’s boss in her position as Director of Government Relations and Sustainability on Woodside’s Sunrise LNG project in the Timor Sea.

Although Mr Faragher transferred to the Sunrise project when his wife became Environment Minister in order to avoid any conflict of interest concerns, Mr Barnett told The West Australian this week that, on the advice of the Crown Solicitor, he had put in place a procedure for the Planning Minister to deal with any issues related to Woodside and the environment in Mrs Faragher’s place.

A Woodside spokesman said yesterday that Ms Pendal, the daughter of late Liberal and Independent South Perth MP Phil Pendal, dealt with the Australian, East Timorese and Northern Territory governments in her position but not the WA Government, although she is based at the company’s Perth headquarters.

Mr Barnett issued a one-line statement yesterday claiming that his situation was materially different to that of Ms Faragher’s and her husband.

“The situation outlined does not involve a spouse or a direct dependant,” the statement said. “There is, therefore, no conflict that would prevent the Premier dealing with Woodside.”

But Opposition Leader Eric Ripper said while he agreed the relationship did not have the same direct prospect of a conflict of interest, Mr Barnett had to demonstrate how he was going to manage the situation.

“It’s not quite the same as a marriage where there are shared finances, I wouldn’t imagine that Mr Barnett and his daughter-inlaw have financial interests in common, nevertheless I think Mr Barnett is going to have to carefully manage separation between family and business activities,” Mr Ripper said.

The Opposition kept up the attack on Ms Faragher’s position in Cabinet, pointing out that ban on her dealing with Woodside on environment matters did not preclude her staying in Cabinet while other issues to do with Woodside were discussed.

“And how does Ms Faragher propose to deal with Woodside’s partners?” shadow environment minister Sally Talbot said. “That list includes BHP Billiton, Shell, Chevron and BP. What about Woodside’s competitors and customers?”

Ms Faragher has said she would only disqualify herself from issues “that specifically related to Woodside”.

The Passion, Broome

Received this by email today. We agree the video on the Woodside home page should be watched, we'll add to our links, thanks kurkara.

Hello Red hand
Thank you for your passion, thank you for caring for country, thank you for your protests, Voicing opinions, and work ongoing....thankyou.

The Blog is fantastic, better and better all the time. What are your thoughts on placing the link for the Woodside video where all can access it easily; on Hands Off Country? It is shocking to think....I don’t want to say it.

I feel this video http://www.woodside.com.au/ gives an insight into the physical size, the disruption to country, and the associated infrastructure and industries, of such a development; if all visitors to the blog are able to easily view this footage?
