The modern trend with water management is towards Water demand management, water (rain and storm) harvesting techniques and infrastructure, and recycling systems. This is also WHAT THE COMMUNITY EVERYWHERE ARE ASKING FOR. As voters, as rate payers, we DEMAND that priority be given to implementing water management systems and techniques and that the RIVERS BE LEFT ALONE.
Thankyou.

Dams are an old and out dated method of water storage. Get everyone storing rainwater, reticulating their water, and not 'wasting' water and there is no need to dam rivers and valleys anymore.
Shame on them for giving all those residents and farmers years of'stress' while wasting tax payers money with all the process.

Please don't dam the pristine William's River, it would be an irreversible loss to Australia's biodiversity, prosperity and asthetic value. Enough mistakes like this have been made in the past- lets not invest $300 million in another.

Humans need to learn not to waste water,I know this river,and the distruction of this waterway,is criminal.Already the Williams river is dammed at Raymond Terrace,there is also ample underground water that is pumped up into the Grahamstown dam, this water is sent down to the central coast to feed them in dry times,I dont even want to think of the DRY riverbed below the new un necessary dam.Dead /dying wildlife,and beauty lost,Bloody humans again!!!

Imagine walking in a forest, where the air you breath is as fresh as can possibly be and the only noises you hear are from high up in the trees. Imagine that which swims both up and down,in the blue rich river that extends all around.Both cattle and farmers use some of this land to support the community large at hand.Though beautiful the landscape must truly be,this land will soon become an in-land sea.All that once was here will soon be gone,thanks to the project Williams Valley has undergone.

We don't need the dam, so why build it here. If the water is needed for the Central Coast, Sydney region then it needs to be built there... Surely there is a suitable spot in their region....

Magnificent natural resources will be destroyed by damming the Williams River.
Harvest and recycle stormwater like other more enlightened societies. We don't need to shower daily or flush the toilet every time. Water is a precious resource. We can no longer take it for granted.

This dam will create grave consequences to the environment that will become irreversible. There are many other solutions to a water shortage. We live in a dry country, and we all need to learn the value of water and how to better use and consume it. Please don't let this dam go ahead for the sake of this country and region's environmental, economical and ecological future. There are better solutions to our water shortage, and part of it is common sense! No Tillegra Dam!

Why, Why, Why...??
Why dam someones home town, someones home town from 40,000 years ago!! The remnants of all the people who have lived there, whether it’s worn down grinding stones beside the river, or homesteads and sheds, it shows their towns heritage. If this dam goes ahead, all of this will be lost. Their stories, memories, all washed away. All this loss for a dam nobody needs and nobody wants. Im only 15, but even i know that this is wrong. So i say...
Why, Why, Why...??

There are other ways to conserve water without another dam and needless expense.
If your seriously thinking of the future, consider the ecological implications and let commonse prevail.

The public should be given an opportunity to vote on the proposal at a state election, rather than it being rushed through prior to 2011. The dam is not required and funding should be directed towards capturing run-off water that currently goes to waste.

In 1995 the Labor Government, which is still in power declared that there would be no more dams built in NSW. There is no need for this dam, other ways have been found to conserve water. Why destroy more important biodiversity and heritage listed communities? This is one of the many reasons why the Labor government is collapsing. If this dam goes ahead Labour will not get my vote.
