The attached Brief represents the concerns of the Agricultural Business Community of Perth East, the
Agricultural Business Community of Perth South and the Agricultural Business Community of Wilmot
regarding the PIC 2 B Highway 7&8 Transportation Corridor Planning and Class EA Study Reports.

We appreciate the assistance of the project managers providing us with background copies of the reports,
their flexibility and the time they continue to invest in answering our questions.

We have reviewed the material provided at the last round of PIC’s and have identified several serious
limitations in the study methodology that are still leading to directions not appropriate for our
communities.

In the spirit of meeting the consultants stated report expectations of “informed decision making” (Report
A, page 19) the agricultural business communities within the study area are continuing to provide
information. In this round we have provided recommendations to better inform the consulting team
about our activities and to assist them in reaching more enlightened decisions in the development of the
proposed corridor and route options.

The committees preparing this report are not opposed to growth or changes resulting from innovation. In
fact many of the agricultural businesses represented within our group are innovators in their own areas.
We appreciate accurate information reflective of our community and not directions pulled from afar.

This planning process is a serious venture and our members, who represent hundred of voices, appreciate
the opportunity to contribute to the process as it will affect our future and our children’s future.

Please contact us at [email protected] or the undersigned if you have any questions regarding our
report. We want to help and contribute to the best decision for our community.
