## Resource

A major fish kill in Budgong follows a fuel tanker spill of 2,500 liters, with dozens of dead fish, eels, and shrimp found in contaminated water—smelling strongly of diesel and cleanup still pending. This isn’t the first incident on the same narrow dirt road, which also saw another tanker get stuck just eight days prior. Locals suspect poor signage is leading big trucks astray. The company, Can Do Petroleum, was en route from Sydney to Kangaroo Valley but went off course—possibly due to GPS rerouting from roadworks. The EPA is now sampling water and wildlife to assess damage, while Shoalhaven City Council vows enforcement action. Complicating matters, Can Do’s director also runs Nour Corporation, which pleaded guilty last year to safety breaches after a South Sydney explosion, facing up to $3 million in fines—with sentencing still pending.
