I note you are seeking all documents held the department relating to “Cloud seeding” throughout Queensland, including all documents for air traffic reports, dates and times, contractors and expenses for these operations.

For your assistance, enquiries were made with the department’s Engineering and Technology Branch and also the department’s Environment, Cultural Heritage and Corridor Management team.

As a result, I have been advised that the department does not hold any records responsive to your request.

In this case, as the department does not hold the information you are seeking, you may wish to direct your enquiry to another agency.
