This is an extract from the latest Newsletter from the Ewamian Aboriginal Corporation that represents the TOs in Native Title issues. It was issued in early October 2017!!

"
The Board has held 2 Board Meetings since our last Newsletter issues in May. The focus for these meetings has largely been about advancing the Talaroo Hot Springs Tourism Project and our Consultants Jim Gleeson and Birdy Bird have been instrumental in working hard with myself and the Board to ensure that no stone is left unturned in our quest to reestablish Talaroo Hot Springs as one of the major tourism attractions in our region. We have also been approached by some pastoralists who wish to develop projects and upgrade their leases which therefore require tenure changes. As these changes will affect our Native Title Rights and Interests an ILUA will need to be negotiated with each pastoralist. EAC will keep Ewamian People updated on any further discussions.
There are also other major projects at varying levels of development occuring on Ewamian country such as the Kidston Hydro-Solar Project and the Gilbert River Irrigation Project. EAC continue to engage with all stakeholders when possible and are also discussing possible partnerships also on a couple of projects including a research project.
No mention of Agate Creek gold project with Laneway!!
I understand that there is another meeting today in Mareeba and I'll try to get some information to post here.
