“The original economic evaluation for the full sized scheme of 58,500 hectares was forecast to
boost the district economy by $480 million and result in an additional 3,400 jobs in the region,”
says Adams.
“The initial scheme size will be smaller, closer to 20% of that size but still represents a $100

extraordinary challenges and threats it faces,” he says
