Dear Airservices Australia,

International Civil Aviation Organization Environment reports indicate that aviation emissions up to approximately 3,000ft above ground level contribute to surface air quality.
Airservices references ICAO in their own documents.
Why is it that all airplanes travelling over Primrose Sands on your RWY 30 flight path are well below 3,000ft and in my opinion as close as <1,000ft over my tank water dependent home?
You know these planes are low and still we experience >30 per day and nothing is done.

Please provide a copy of all paperwork and documents that directly relate to any of your studies on the impact of aircraft emissions on tank water quality.
This would also include the findings related to the types of emissions studied and the results of those tests.

Yours faithfully,

Cathy Minnucci
