For this reason RailCorp believe ample opportunity was provided for the generalpublic and interested parties to provide their input into the consultation process and raise anyissues or concerns they might have with the proposal.All submissions received from the general public were responded to in personal letters. Allissues raised in their submissions were responded to where a response to their issue orquery was possible.For the purposes of compiling and presenting the issues raised by the public in thesubmission report, all submissions were classified by the key issues raised such that ifmultiple items were raised in a single submission, all distinct issues would be collated andaddressed in The Response to Submissions section (see section 3.3). To avoid duplication,responses to common issues were collated and responded to under single categories.2.6 Proposed Consultation Following Project ApprovalIf the Warrawee Substation project is approved then consultation will continue with all relevantstakeholders through the pre-construction and construction phase of the project.The following sections provide an overview of the consultation activities that will beundertaken during the pre-construction and construction phases of the Project.2.6.1 Project NewsletterA project newsletter will be sent to residents and other stakeholders in the area around theproject site to advise them of the determination and completion and availability of theSubmissions Report and detailing the future project steps and timeline.Construction specific impact notifications including, access changes, detours, high noisegenerating works activities and work required outside the nominated working hours will beadvised to the local community at least five days prior to such works being undertaken.2.6.2 Determination NoticeThe decision whether to proceed with project approval will be communicated to the publiconline at http://www.railcorp.info/Page 12
