Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2000 Week 1 Hansard (17 February) . . Page.. 295 ..

MR SMYTH (continuing):

10. The Government is aware of two proposals to conduct controlled burnout activities in accordance with the new provisions:

� The proposal by Mr Chic Henry, the promoter of Summernats, for the purpose-built burnout track at Exhibition Park in Canberra (EPIC) to be made available for burnouts outside Summernats. (EPIC does not currently permit the use of this track for burnouts at other times.) Mr Henry has suggested that relocating the track could reduce noise impacts on nearby residents.

� A proposal by the Rotary Club of Canberra City to use the former AFP driver training facility on Majura Road. The Rotary Club is negotiating with Transport Training ACT for access to this facility and is currently seeking sponsorship for burnout events.

11.1 Consideration will be given to any specific proposals for the relocation of the existing track at EPIC, within the context of the Master Plan for EPIC. Should this occur, it is envisioned that EPIC would need to retain control over access to the facility in order to ensure that the EPP on Motor Sports Noise is complied with.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
