Require the inclusion of water bodies within Melgund Township in the "safeguarding of water" and "interconnected systems of water" baseline studies mentioned in the Reconciliation Journey section.
Strategic Rationale
"The text highlights a "Water Statement" and protection of interconnected systems. Melgund residents rely on private wells and local lakes for drinking and household use. This recommendation ensures that the 'interconnected systems' studied include the specific water sources of Dyment and Borups Corners, rather than just WLON territory. The expected result is a comprehensive baseline that protects local health and property values, preventing future disputes over water quality changes."
