Submitted by Flowerpower on Sun, 10/07/2011 - 4:08pmThursday, 30 June 2011: Media release New legislation due to be debated in State Parliament today will set the Victorian Government on a collision course with environment and community groups over plans to expand the Port of Hastings in Westernport Bay.
The legislation will establish a new Port of Hastings Development Authority to fast-track port expansion plans and transform the area into a highly urbanised industrial zone, projected to be busier than the Port of Melbourne.
