Oenpelli has signed up for federal subsidies for the fuel, but will not be able to roll it out fully until the road into the town reopens, which could be months away

NT land owners sue over mine expansion
A group of traditional land owners has begun legal action against the Northern Territory government over the expansion of the territory's largest zinc mine. The $110 million expansion, approved by the Northern Territory government in October last year, will turn the McArthur River Mine from underground to open cut mining. Part of the project by Swiss mining giant Xstrata and its subsidiary McArthur River Mining (MRM) involves diverting the McArthur River, near the Gulf of Carpentaria, by 5.5km.
Death of euthanasia
More than one hundred people are marking the 10th anniversary of the overturning of the Northern Territory's voluntary euthanasia law with a bus trip from Sydney to the nation's capital. The so-called "freedom ride" began at midday (AEST) Sunday, with elderly and seriously ill voluntary euthanasia supporters boarding two buses covered in "Day Of Shame" banners, organisers said.

Judge Dean Mildren told a public lecture at the University of Adelaide that the high rate of indigenous people in jails across the country was a "horrible statistic".
