 Submission to Ranger and Jabiluka Senate Inquiry

 I ask the Senate Inquiry to recommend:
 - an overhaul of the present environmental regulatory regime, to provide
   greater transparency and independence;
 - greater involvement of traditional Aboriginal owners in the
   establishment and oversight of any new environmental monitoring and     
reporting regime;
 - more statutory monitoring points at both operations and a greater
   frequency of monitoring;
 - event-based monitoring, whereby weather events trigger immediate response
   monitoring;
 - that the so-called 'limit' for uranium concentrations detected in Kakadu
   National Park downstream of the operations be reduced from 5.8 parts per
   billion to 0.5 parts per billion.
 - return unprocessed ore down the Jabiluka decline, which can be cemented
   in and revegitated
