Farmers in Victoria's West Gippsland are angered and upset by construction work linked to the Wonthaggi Desalination plant.
Glen Forbes farmer Dorene Blum says 120 farms have had a road and pipeline put through their properties to link amenities to the site.
She says no amount of financial compensation will cover the damage the project has created.
"We were angry, and then I think now I'm still bitter. And I think David's just now numb," she says.
"And I think you'll find that 120 families are pretty much the same.
"There was massive anger to start with and then when it was like you've got no rights, no choice, no hope. People either become bitter or numb."
