MEDIA RELEASE 19 July 2013 Alliance to Save Hinchinbrook Inc. OPEN LETTER IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST to all the owners at "Port Hinchinbrook", the interested public, and the Queensland and Commonwealth Governments Port Hinchinbrook Services is in provisional liquidation. Williams Corporation, the development company, is under voluntary administration. Previous developers Tekin Australia (Resort Village Cardwell) were also wound up, in 1990. So what's the problem? The short story is that "Port Hinchinbrook's" waterways cannot be kept navigable by dredging, because of an unchangeable characteristic of the Hinchinbrook Channel coast: "severe siltation". This problem is inherent in the site; it is not caused by cyclones. |
