The NSW department of planning and environment is keen to hear the community’s views on Orica Australia’s application which seeks to increase the annual production limit of ammonia by 25,000 tonnes, a spokesperson for the department said.

The local community always has an opportunity to share its views, according to the department.

“Community consultation is an integral part of the planning process and the applicant will have to respond to the feedback we receive and this is taken into consideration when we develop our recommendations,” the spokesperson said.

“It’s easy to participate by going online and we encourage everyone to take a look and have their say.”

The application will be assessed against strict, consistently applied environmental criteria.
