Palmer is a rural locality of the Shire of Collie in the South West region of Western Australia. The southern part of the locality, south of the Collie–Williams Road, is dominated by coal mining and the Collie Power Station, while the remainder is split between state forest and farm land.[1] [2]

Palmer and the Shire of Collie are located on the traditional land of the Kaniyang and Wiilman people of the Noongar nation.[3] [4] [5] [6]
