Warragamba Dam Wall

PLANS TO RAISE WARRAGAMBA DAM THREATEN ONE OF NSW’S
WILDEST RIVERS IN BLUE MOUNTAINS NATIONAL PARK

Raising the Warragamba Dam wall is a developer-driven proposal that will make it easier to build on flood-prone land in western Sydney. Raising the dam wall would also destroy 65 kilometres of wilderness rivers and inundate 4,700 hectares of the world heritage listed Blue Mountains National Park.

The Greens are supporting the grassroots community campaign to stop the destruction of the Blue Mountains national park and the over development in western Sydney from the raising of Warragamba Dam wall.

Petition – Don’t Flood The Blue Mountains

The NSW Government’s plans to raise the Warragamba Dam wall by 14 metres will flood thousands of hectares of World Heritage-listed Blue Mountains National Park and threaten the wild Kowmung River, without giving the protection residents need during peak flooding events.
