	The Wilderness Society - Massive Cape York Peninsula water grab should be stopped by the Queensland Government
		The extraction and depletion of groundwater at Cape Flattery is particularly undesirable given the documented and internationally important relationship between ecosystem health and available groundwater and surface water availability, particularly during the long and protracted dry season, throughout Cape York Peninsula.
		This reflects, amongst other things, that Cape York Peninsula retains a continuous cover of native vegetation/soil landscape ecosystems; and that human exploitation of water resources remains at a low level due to the overall small size of the human population and the limited extent of industrial activity.
		The ecological function of these landscapes in the dry season is particularly sensitive to the persistence of geographically restricted surface water/near surface water resources, and hence the continued functioning of systems that affect groundwater recharge and discharge (including perennial springs and water holes, the maintenance of river base flows, and perennial stream flow).
