I’ve been told by SSA numerous times and have literal proof of “no jetski’s”.  Categorically no interest in using them for the KI surf music proposed event.

Now I see… like so many other promises and claims of environmental responsibility from SSA and the Tourism Commission, that the information provided was bull.

This means the submission recently put to the Dept. responsible for compliance of the Environmental Protection, Biodiversity and Conservation Act, will have to be upgraded.  It will now have to include the impact on populations of National Environmental Significance found within the surrounding ocean at Spot-X.

With the largest population of Australian Sealion’s only 2 minutes on a jetski away, one has to wonder at the possibility for significant impact to that population.

Please explain SSA.  Why go back on your word… again?

Does this mean the “no surfing event roaming around the island” claim was bogus aswell?

And while I have your attention, the phone application Steve Reddy described at the community meeting on the 8th of Sept…

How can you knowingly send thousands of people to remote beaches around KI without assessing those ecosystems suitability for such an influx???

Will you provide wardens and volunteers for all the surfing beaches you plan to send the festival goers to???

Once again, I ask you to please set up ethanol cleaning stations at the Cape Jervis ferry terminal to save the island from potential environmental disaster.

Thank you all for reading.  Although you may not be aware, there are many people and organisations/departments receiving this correspondence and I will be contacted for the response from SSA.  I only hope I have one to provide…
