In summary, the development of Barrow Island would provide wide ranging, long term conservation benefits to the community, contribute to world class conservation programs while Australia would benefit from a new major competitive and more secure gas supply for the next phase of energy- intensive industry development and power generation, making Barrow Island the only acceptable location where the development can be commercially competitive. ... Weeds infestations have already proved impossible to eradicate and the potential for disease causing pathogens could very quickly devastate Barrow ...
