an unsafe road is a serious threat to life of the inexperienced quad bike riders,
residents and service vehicles drivers that use the road. :
Compounding an existing problem
7. The business's proposal to operate as a tour in Woondum National Park will
significantly impact upon the local environment and endanger our protected flora and
fauna, eroding the habitat that has been set aside for protection of our natural
environment. The tour will likely have invasive impacts like disturbance to animal and
bird breeding and the introduction of weeds.
8. We understand that'Noosa Parks:‘Association,‘Noosa Biosphere Ltd, National
Parks Association QLD, Wildlife Preservation Society QLD, Australian Centre-for «:
Agricultural Health & Safety and Noosa Landcare have also raised their concerns.
On this basis, | would not consider this proposal to be in keeping with proper.
development of the area and would ask that the application be refused.
Yours Faithfully,
