1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND

Dixon Sand (Penrith) Pty Ltd (Dixon Sand) operates sand quarries on Old Northern Road (Lots 29, 196 DP 752025 and Lots 1, 2 DP 547255) and Haerses Road (Lot 170 DP 664767, Lots A and B DP 407341, and Lots 176 and 177 DP 752039) Maroota, approximately 40 kilometres north of Parramatta. The Maroota area is illustrated in Figure 1.1 and the location of Dixon Sand’s Maroota quarries are shown in Figure 1.2.

The purpose of the AEMR is to satisfy the Director-General and Council of the overall environmental performance and management of the operations and their compliance with the conditions of consent. The reporting period is from 01 July 2009 to 30 June 2010, based on the date of the original quarry development consent 796/00/HE.

OLD NORTHERN ROAD SITE

Development consent for the quarry on Lots 29 and 196 and extension into Lots 1 and 2 was issued by the Land and Environment Court on 7 July 2000 (796/00/HE) and 24 May 2004 (250-09-01) respectively. Consent No. 796/00/HE applies to Lots 29 and 196 DP 752025 and allows sand extraction, processing within the plant on Lot 196, and rehabilitation of the site. Consent No. 796/00/HE lapses on 22 March 2010 (however continuation of processing is approved under consent 250-09-01). Consent No 250-09-01 applies to Lots 29 and 196 DP 752025 and Lots 1 and 2 DP 547255 and enables sand extraction on Lots 1 and 2, continued use of the central processing plant on Lot 196, transport of product from the site, and water management and rehabilitation operations over Lots 29, 196, 1 and 2. Consent No. 250-09-01 lapses on 24 May 2022. Sand extraction in the reporting period has included ongoing extraction within Lots 1 and 2, and continued extraction in the north western corner of Lot 196. Consent 250-09-01 required the preparation of an Annual Environmental Management Report (AEMR) for the entire site for the life of the consent.

Monitoring locations for this site can be seen in Figure 1.3.

HAERSES ROAD SITE

Development consent was granted by the Minister for Planning on 14 February 2006 (165-7-2005) for the extraction of sand from Dixon Sand’s property at Lot 170 DP 664767, Lots A and B DP 407341, and Lots 176 and 177 DP 752039 Haerses Road, Maroota, approximately two kilometres south of the existing Old Northern Road operations. To date, sand extracted from the Haerses Road site has been trucked, processed and stockpiled at the existing processing plant on Lot 196 DP 752025 (Lot 196). The development involves the blending and processing of variable quality sands from the Haerses Road site at the plant on Lot 196, and uses the existing processing plant and ancillary facilities such as the workshop, weighbridge and office, as well as the existing haul roads via the intersection with Old Northern Road.

The operation on the Haerses Road site will maintain an average extraction rate of 250 000 tonnes per annum for a period of 25 years, of which approximately 190 000 tonnes per annum will require processing. The existing approvals permit an annual production rate of 495 000 tonnes from the processing plant on Lot 196. The expected annual output of product from Lots 1 and 2 at the processing plant is expected to be approximately 300 000 tonnes. The processing of sand extracted from the Haerses Road site and Lots 1 and 2 will therefore maintain the approved production rate of the existing processing plant on Lot 196 for approximately 25 years after commencement of extraction on the Haerses Road site (November 2006).

Consent was granted to modify the conditions of development consent 250-09- 01 by the Minister for Planning on 14 February 2006, which enables the existing processing plant on Lot 196 to receive, stockpile and process material from the Haerses Road site, to increase the number of inbound laden truck movements to Lot 196 to 32 per day, and to allow the


disposal of tailings from the processing of sand from the Haerses Road site on Lots 29, 196, 1 and 2.

A consent modification application (Section 96) was lodged with the Department of Planning to increase truck movements approved under 250-09- 01. This modification (DA 250-09- 01 Mod 2) was approved during the 2008/09 reporting period, in August 2008. AEMR reporting for the Haerses Rd site will satisfy Schedule 5, Condition 5 of DA 165-7-2005. Monitoring locations for this site can be seen in Figure 1.4.

2 AIR QUALITY

2.1 DUST SOURCES & MITIGATION MEASURES

SOURCES

Potential dust sources from the Dixon Sand sites include the following:

• topsoil stripping;

• ripping with a bulldozer;

• extraction with an excavator and truck;

• crushers and screens at the processing plant;

• wind erosion from stockpiles;

• loading product sand into trucks;

• product transportation along unsealed haul roads; and

• occasional haul road grading.

MITIGATION MEASURES

Measures to mitigate dust from the above sources include:

• minimising the area of disturbance by only clearing areas immediately prior to extraction;

• progressive rehabilitation;

• maintaining dust suppression equipment to all processing plant;

• maintaining a manual sprinkler system including fine sprays on the conveyors of the dry processing plant, overhead sprinklers and a conical jet stockpile sprinkler;

• stabilising topsoil stockpiles by planting with a cover crop of non-invasive cereal or legumes;

• using a water cart to suppress dust on unsealed roads, during dry conditions on days of operation;

• sealing Haerses Rd;

• limiting vehicle speed to 20 km/hr on internal, unsealed access tracks;

• ensuring all loads leaving the site are covered; and

• regularly maintaining mobile and fixed equipment to minimise exhaust emissions.

2.2 MONITORING RESULTS

CLIMATIC DATA

Monthly climatic measurements were recorded by the weather station associated with the Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM) monitoring station, in accordance with:

• condition M2.3 of the Environmental Protection Licence #3916 and

• condition 4.2 of consent 250-09-01; and

• condition M2.3 of the Environmental Protection Licence #12513.

These results are shown in Table 2.1.

Data presented in Table 2.1 shows that the highest total monthly rainfall during the reporting period occurred in February 2010. Average temperature data was gathered from Richmond RAAF weather station 67105 from July 09 to November 09, and from the TEOM for December 10 to June 10.

In accordance with the Environment Protection Licences for the Dixon Sand sites, two wind sectors have been nominated as reflecting the impacts of the sites on PM10 levels received at the TEOM. Wind recorded within 270° to 315° represents the Old Northern Road sector, and 180° - 240° represents the Haerses Road sector. Chart 2.1 summarises wind data indicating the percentage of wind data recorded in both sectors for each month, and also displays the average wind speed. It can be seen from Chart 2.1 that a higher percentage of wind was received from the 180° - 240° sector for the majority of the reporting period. Chart 2.1 Frequency of Recorded Wind Direction (as % of data collected)

DUST DEPOSITION

Five depositional dust gauges are located on the Old Northern Road site and two gauges at the Haerses Rd site. Results are collected and analysed monthly by a NATA accredited laboratory. Chart 2.2 displays the results received during this monitoring period. Monthly laboratory results for the reporting period are presented in Annex A.


PM10

In accordance with conditions 4.3 of consent 250-09-01, and condition 11, Schedule 3 of DA 165-7-2005, the concentration of particulates with an aerodynamic diameter less than ten microns (PM10) is monitored via the continuous dust monitor (TEOM) near Maroota Public School. The TEOM records data for 360 degrees, of which two arcs of data, 270-315º and 180-240º, indicate potential contributions from the Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sites respectively. A summary of the average monthly and annual data is shown in Table 2.2 and Table 2.3. The validated TEOM data provided by Ecotech and Carbon Based is included in Annex B.

2.3 COMPLIANCE

Condition 3.3 of consent 250-09-01 and condition 11, Schedule 3 of consent 165-7-2005 requires that ambient air quality at affected residences and Maroota Public School complies with the following EPA limits:

• dust deposition - 4g/m!/month (annual average) or 2g/m!/month increase;

• total suspended particulate matter (TSP) – 90µg/ m" (annual mean); and

• particulate matter <10µm (PM10):

o 50 µg/m" (average for 24 hour period) o 30 µg/m" (annual mean).

DECC requires the automatic alarm system of the TEOM continuous dust monitoring device to be set at a PM10 trigger value of:

• 42 µg/m" (average for rolling 24 hour period between 270° - 315° and 180° - 240°).

This level was set in a notice issued by DECC on 5 September 2006 notifying that the trigger level had been raised to 42 µg/m" to accommodate newly approved operations in the Maroota area.


2.4 ANALYSIS

DUST DEPOSITION

The annualised averages for deposited dust levels at Dixon Sand gauges were within consented levels for all of the monitoring sites except Dust Gauge 1.

Dust Gauge 1 (D1) received consistently high readings, above the 4g/m!/month annual average, for 8 out of the 12 monitoring periods. These high readings were attributable to sand present in the samples. Sand entering samples is at this site is most likely a result of the proximity of D1 to the access road at the front gate, with localised deposition caused by quarry traffic. Gauge 2 at Haerses Rd also received one high reading.

The presence of sand in the static dust gauges may not result in a true measurement of dust dispersion from the site, as sand particles would contribute significantly to the overall weight of the sample, but are not of a particle size to be distributed off site. Localised events in the direct vicinity of the gauges are most likely the cause of sand deposition in the samples. Despite this, the gauge levels will continue to be monitored, with actions taken where necessary to ensure compliance, such as the use of water truck in areas of high activity and sweeping of the access track near the front entrance.

Results for October 2009 were consistently elevated across all sites, but below 4g/m!/month, due to deposition from dust storms in September 2009.

PM10

The annual mean 24 hour average PM10 levels recorded onsite was 14.3µg/m! which is well below the DECCW criterion of 30µg/m! for the reporting period. The highlighted monthly PM10 average for September 2009 (Table 2.2) exceeded the DECCW criteria due to a major dust storm that swept through Sydney on the 23rd of this month. Data from the TEOM correlated directly with this phenomenon, and therefore it cannot be attributed to sand quarrying activities.

Elevated maximum 24 hour PM10 readings (Table 2.3), above the trigger level of 42 µg/m! and DECCW criterion of 50 µg/m!, were received during September, October and November. The following is an explanation behind the likely causes of the exceedances.

The high maximum 24 hour PM10 for September was a result of the dust storm on the 23rd of September 2009 as explained above.

The result for November was caused by a high pollution index received Sydney wide on the 22nd of November 2009, due to northerly winds and temperatures in excess of 40 degrees.

The high maximum 24 hour PM10 in October was caused by an unexplained jump of 100,000µg/m" on the 8th of October, with this event occurring in the space of 5 minutes, and lasted approximately 20 minutes. This is a massive change in particle levels in such a short period of time, and could only be explained by an intense localised event at the TEOM itself or TEOM malfunction. It is highly unlikely that quarry operations would produce a result this high within the timeframe of the event.

2.5 FINDINGS

The EIS prepared for the extension of the quarry onto Lots 1 and 2 (ERM 2001) predicted dust deposition at the nearest receptors to be between 2.2 and 2.9g/m"/month. Annualised monthly dust averages are generally below 2.9g/m"/month, with only two gauges showing levels above this limit on a number of occasions during the reporting period. The dust gauges as established, do not necessarily reflect dust deposition at the receptors, as some are over 500m away from the nearest receptor (ie. D1 front gate). D6 (school), however, is located in such a position to provide an indication of dust at the School.

The EIS predicted a 6th highest PM10 24 hour average of 42 µg/m! and PM10 annual average of 7 µg/m! (maximum values for 7 discrete receptors modelled). The air quality statement of


evidence presented in the Land and Environment Court of NSW for Lots 1 and 2 (ERM 2003) predicted that the highest 24 hour PM10 ground level concentration would be 37 µg/m! at

receptor 3. Consent 250-09-01 and the Environment Protection Licence subsequently set a maximum rolling 24-hour average of 42 µg/m! for the site.

The PM10 annual average for the 2009 / 2010 reporting period was 14.3µg/m!, well below the DECC criterion of 30µg/m!, yet higher than predicted in the EIS. The highest 24hr average PM10 within sector 270° - 315° was 1803.4µg/m!, which was caused by extreme climatic conditions in the form of a major dust storm throughout Sydney on the 23rd of September 2009. Excluding results effected by the September dust storm and high pollution, the 24 hour PM10 Dust levels on the site have largely been satisfactory during the reporting period, demonstrating that site management has been effective. The EIS for Haerses Rd (ERM, 2005) predicted dust deposition during quarrying Stages 1 and 5 to be between 2.2 and 3.0 g/month/m" for all receptors. Annualised dust deposition levels for the majority of Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sites were consistently at or less than 3 g/month/m" for the reporting period. Front Gate levels were consistently above 4g/month/m", however as mentioned previously sand in the static dust gauges may not result in a true measurement of dust dispersion from the site, as sand particles would contribute significantly to the overall weight of the sample, but are not of a particle size to be distributed off site. Insect/plant matter is also not representative of the deposition of airborne particles. Slightly elevated results for October 2009 at all sites correlate with the significant dust storm during September 2009.

2.6 CHANGES TO ENVIRONMENTAL PROCEDURES

No changes to environmental procedures occurred during this monitoring period.

3 WATER MANAGEMENT

3.1 GROUNDWATER LEVELS

OLD NORTHERN ROAD GROUNDWATER LEVELS

At the Old Northern Road sand quarry site groundwater levels have been measured monthly since 2003 from five groundwater bores on the site. The bores are located in the following positions:

• MW1 (Lot 2 near creek) • MW2 (Lot 1 near house) • MW3 (DS2) (northern edge of Lot 1) • MW4 (DS3) (western edge of Lot 2) • MW5 (Lot 196 down on the bank of Main Dam)

Long-term groundwater levels are plotted in Graph 3.1, and the 2009/2010 groundwater levels are plotted in Graph 3.2. In general the bores show groundwater levels are stable with little fluctuation since the last monitoring period. It can be seen from the graphs that a very slight rise is evident within the bores during monitoring in April. This is possibly due to elevated rainfall received during February and March 2010. Data on the groundwater levels from the current reporting period are provided in Annex C.


HAERSES ROAD GROUNDWATER LEVELS

There were originally 14 groundwater bores sunk at the Haerses Rd site, however there are now only 8 bores remaining as H3 ran dry, and H1, H4, H5, H8 and H10 were removed to make way for quarry and road works. The 8 monitored bores are located as follows:

• H2 (back of Ron’s house) • H6 (near horse shed) • H7 (south of David Dixon’s house) • H9 (south of house) • H11 (middle of Stage 2) • H12 (next to shed) • H13 (end of paddock) • H14 (in bush)

Long-term groundwater levels are plotted in Graph 3.3, and the 2009/2010 groundwater levels are plotted in Graph 3.4. Similar with the Old Northern Road bores, the Haerses Road locations show groundwater levels are stable with little fluctuation since the last monitoring period, and also the slight rise in April possibly due to elevated rainfall during February and March 2010.

3.3 COMPLIANCE

GROUNDWATER LEVELS

Sand extraction at the quarries is required to remain more than two metres above the wet weather high groundwater level across the site (Condition 3.25 of consent 250-09-01 (Old Northern Road Quarry), and Condition 10, Schedule 2 of consent 165-7-2005 (Haerses Rd Quarry).


The extraction levels at both sites have conformed to the specified wet weather high groundwater levels; the presence of onsite water in the excavation pits is attributed to rainfall that has been captured in the depression. The evidence for this statement is the diminishing water levels in the excavation pits during dry weather. No site survey for this site has been undertaken to date.

GROUNDWATER QUALITY

The following criteria must be complied with for discharge of stormwater from the Old Northern Road site:

• TSS less than 50 mg/L • pH between 4.5 and 6.5

All storm water was captured and contained within the extractions pits during the monitoring period; therefore no stormwater was discharged from the site.

3.4 ANALYSIS

GROUNDWATER LEVELS

The 2001 Environmental Impact Statement for the Old Northern Road sand quarry found that groundwater levels across Lots 1 and 2 varied from 175.29 to 194.07 metres AHD, with movement in a west-south-westerly direction. During the 2009/2010 reporting period the average groundwater levels varied between 162.58 and 200.17 metres AHD, which is a greater difference than the levels reported in the 2001 EIS. However groundwater levels have remained predominantly static and have showed little variation over the last 2 reporting periods.

The 2005 Environmental Impact Statement for the Haerses Road sand quarry showed groundwater levels at approximately 171.5m to 184.4m (AHD) across Stage 2 on the western side of Haerses Rd. Groundwater levels varied between 171.43 to 186.49 (AHD), which is generally consistent with the EIS predictions.

Overall groundwater levels at both sites continue to remain stable.

GROUNDWATER QUALITY

Groundwater quality results for the Old Northern Road site in the 2009/2010 reporting period show similar results to previous reporting periods, with no anomalies or distinct changes to trends that would indicate impacts from quarry operations. A number of the bores sampled at Haerses Road site during the 2009/2010 reporting period received extremely high readings for Turbidity and TSS. This was evident during sampling the bores, with heavy sediment visible in many of the samples taken. Purging the wells during sampling should flush any localised suspended sediment present as the well recharges, however even after purging the wells the sediment remained. This is an indication that the wells require maintenance or have not been installed correctly and are not being flushed as groundwater passes through the bores. Further investigation is needed to determine the cause of suspended sediments entering the bores.

3.5 FINDINGS

As quarry extractions has remained above the required height above high wet weather groundwater levels at both sites, and groundwater levels have become stabilised, it is considered that current operational management measures are appropriate for the protection of groundwater on the site.



An investigation into the adequacy of groundwater bores across both sites has been initiated due to variable monitoring results, and will be reported on during the 2010/2011 reporting period. Until the findings of this investigation have been finalised, the bores will continue to be sampled as per the approved management procedures.


4 NOISE

4.1 NOISE SOURCES AND MITIGATION MEASURES

SOURCES

Noise sources at the quarry sites include:

• Plant operating at the site including dozers and excavators • Trucks accessing and egressing the quarry sites • wet/dry processing and associated loader; • ancillary activities

MITIGATION MEASURES

Measures to mitigate noise impacts include:

• construction of noise bunds in strategic locations as stipulated in EIS and consent conditions

• compliance with approved hours of operation • regular maintenance of road surfaces, vehicles and equipment to reduce noise • enforcement of speed limits for trucks and limited use of exhaust brakes in

residential areas.

4.2 COMPLIANCE

Noise monitoring was conducted by On-site Environmental Management (OSEM) for both the Old Northern Road sand quarry and Haerses Rd sand quarry. The noise reports resulting from this monitoring are attached as Annex D.

OLD NORTHERN ROAD NOISE CRITERIA

• noise must not exceed LAeq10 (15 minute) 44dB(A) (7am-6pm) Monday to Saturday;

• noise must not exceed a LAeq (15 minute) 37dB(A) (6am-7am) Monday to Saturday;

• no works on Sundays and Public Holidays; and

• noise from the premises must not exceed LAeq (1 hour) 45dB(A) at the most affected

classroom of Maroota Public School.

4.3 RESULTS

Results of the noise monitoring identified both the Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sand quarries to be beneath the compliance limits for operation and loading activities at all assessed receivers.

4.4 ANALYSIS

OLD NORTHERN ROAD NOISE ANALYSIS

The 2009/2010 noise monitoring revealed that operation of the site was rarely audible at the surrounding residences. Refer to the noise monitoring report in Annex D for more details.

HAERSES ROAD NOISE ANALYSIS

The Haerses Road EIS did not make predictions for noise impacts during the quarrying of Stage 2, where quarrying has been carried out to date.

Monitoring results from the 2009/2010 monitoring investigation show that the noise generated from quarry activities was inaudible or barely audible at sensitive receivers surrounding the quarry sites. Refer to the noise monitoring report in Annex D for more details.

4.5 FINDINGS

Noise monitoring conducted in 2009/2010 reporting period has been consistent with the noise predictions made in the Old Northern Road EIS. Noise levels recorded at the nearest sensitive receptors remain below the various limits set by the consent.

The 2009/2010 monitoring investigation report showed that both the Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sand quarry sites were operating in full compliance with the approval limits.

Noise monitoring has consistently indicated compliance with EPA noise criteria, and it can be concluded that mitigation measures currently employed at the quarry are appropriate for the site.


There have been no proposed changes to noise monitoring procedures during the reporting period.


5 TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORT

5.1 ONGOING MANAGEMENT MEASURES

VEHICLE MOVEMENTS

Vehicle movement records have been sent to Council on a monthly basis along with Section 94 payments. There were no exceedences of permitted vehicle movements during the reporting period.

INSPECTIONS

The monthly site inspection checklist includes observations of road conditions. Road sweeping is routinely undertaken to reduce sand deposition on public roads, in particular near the front gate to the Old Northern Road quarry.

COMMUNITY LIAISON

Liaison between Dixon Sand and the Principal of Maroota Public School is conducted on a regular basis. Dixon Sand also distributes a School Survey to parents at the school to provide an opportunity to the community to voice their opinions of quarry impacts (further discussed in Section 7), as well as flyers reminding parents of the traffic complaints procedure.

5.2 PRODUCTION DATA

The following data is a summary of the annual production quantities for Dixon Sands Maroota quarries during the reporting period.

All truck movements from the Haerses Rd site since commencement in November 2006 have delivered product to the Old Northern Rd site for processing. No product has been delivered directly from the site to buyers. A total of approximately 103516 tonnes of sand has been transported from the site, in 3090 truck loads. These truck numbers will continue to be accurately recorded upon the commencement of trucks delivering product directly offsite.

5.5 ANALYSIS

During 2009/2010 reporting period there were no traffic related complaints lodged with Dixon Sand. However the Community Survey forms revealed that local residents are still concerned with truck movements on the local roads. Responses to truck driver behaviour ranged from excellent to terrible, and the majority of respondents had considered making a complaint. Overall the results of the survey show continuing concern over truck movements on local roads, however the respondents did not elaborate on the reasons for their concern.

5.6 FINDINGS

The Haerses Rd EIS predicted that the Haerses Road quarry would not increase the total number of truck movements to or from the existing processing plant (max 120 movements per day). A consent modification approved in August 2008 has since increased these numbers to a maximum of 180 vehicle movements per day.

Mitigation measures proposed in the EIS have either been implemented, or are in the process of being approved, such as the Wisemans Ferry Road / Haerses Road intersection upgrade.



No changes to the environmental procedures are proposed, or deemed necessary.


6 REHABILITATION

As of December 2006, new rehabilitation and bush management contractors (Bush-It Pty Ltd) were bought on site to manage both the Old Northern Road and Haerses Road rehabilitation and revegetation. An Annual Report provided by the contractor, Bush-It, for 2009-2010 is attached as Annex G. Monthly reports were also provided to Dixon Sand.

6.1 REHABILITATION WORKS

HAERSES ROAD Works undertaken at Haerses Road offset area during this reporting period have predominantly involved a topsoil translocation trial, maintenance of weeds, and planting of canopy species. Topsoil was translocated over two small patches of approximately 12x12m and 10x10m in area. These trial plots have been undertaken in preparation for more extensive translocation works which are planned during the next reporting period. Maintenance weeding has involved a combination of herbicide spraying and manual removal, with spraying targeting couch and manual removal targeting annuals and grasses such as Crofton Weed, Whisky Grass and Paspalum. Weed maintenance efforts have been effective at controlling weed densities within brushmatted and planted areas. Approximately 470 canopy species were planted at the northern end of the site, within the area that had previously been brushmatted with Hakea species. These species included Sydney Peppermint Gum, Grey Gum, Scribbly Gum and Allocasuarina sp. OLD NORTHERN ROAD Works at Old Northern Road during this reporting period involved maintenance weeding, spraying and brushmatting works in Zones 1 & 2. Weeds targeted within these zones include Whisky Grass, Paspalum, Crofton Weed and Couch. Works at Old Northern Road were undertaken during July 09 to September 09. Minimal work occurred at this site for the rest of the reporting period due to more intensive works focused at Hearses Road in preparation for topsoil translocation.

6.2 BACKFILLING & FINAL LANDFORM WORKS

No shaping of final landform was carried out in the reporting period.

6.3 MONITORING RESULTS

Dixon Sand’s rehabilitation contractors, Bush-It Pty Ltd, completed monthly reports on the rehabilitation and an annual report (Annex G).

6.4 COMPLIANCE

Condition 4.9 of consent 250-09-01 requires the implementation of the flora and fauna monitoring program, which incorporates the annual survey for threatened species and monitoring of the threatened species conservation area.


A targeted annual assessment of threatened species conservation and buffer areas, and Kunzea population and exclusion zone was not undertaken during this monitoring period. However these areas are inspected and maintained on a regular basis during site monthly inspections and bush regeneration works. This information is contained within the monthly site inspections checklists and Bush Regeneration Annual Report 2009-2010 and monthly reports. Threatened species monitoring is planned to occur within the next monitoring period 2010-2011.

6.5 ANALYSIS

The EIS (ERM 2001) identified the potential impacts to flora and fauna of the site through the removal of approximately six hectares of vegetation, including foraging habitat and approximately 40 trees with potential roosting habitat.

The EIS concluded that impacts on wildlife movement to adjoining areas would be minimal and the proposed extraction was not expected to place a viable local population of any identified threatened species at risk of extinction.

The quarry has maintained links between the conservation area and adjoining areas of native vegetation, while known populations of threatened species have been protected from potential impacts of the quarry.

The EIS (ERM 2005) identified that the proposed quarry area would be confined to mainly cleared areas to maintain natural links to Maroota State Forest. The quarry area has remained confined to those areas outlined for quarrying in the EIS. The EIS predicted that it was unlikely that the quarry would have a significant impact on threatened species in the area. The commencement of soil translocation into Offset Area 1 will ensure a diverse array of local species establish in the Area, resulting in a continuation of the surrounding bush and viable habitat through the Area.

6.6 FINDINGS

Monitoring through monthly site inspections and bush regenerations works indicate that the exclusion and buffer zones are being effectively maintained at the quarry, and that the threatened species identified on site have been adequately protected.

6.7 FUTURE REHABILITATION

The focus areas for Hearses Road site for 2010-2011 will be the topsoil translocation area. This area will require intensive maintenance throughout the year to prevent weed invasion from suppressing natural regeneration.

No significant changes to the maintenance program will occur at the Old Northern Road site, although care should be taken not to neglect these areas due to the heightened focus on the Haerses Road soil translocation area. These areas will be monitored closely for weed incursion during monthly site inspections.


No changes to environmental procedures occurred during this monitoring period.


7 SOCIAL IMPACTS

7.1 COMPLIANCE

Dixon Sand is required to:

• record all complaints received in a Complaints Register;

• implement strategies outlined in the Community Relations Plan to monitor social impacts and improve relations with the local community; and,

• meet biannually with the Community Consultative Committee (CCC). The CCC acts

as a combined committee for both Dixon Sand’s Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sites.

7.2 COMPLAINTS AND FOLLOW-UP ACTIONS

There were no complaints received during the 2009/2010 reporting period.

7.3 COMMUNITY CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE MEETINGS

There were two Community Consultative Committee (CCC) meeting held in the 2009/2010 reporting period, in accordance with the consent conditions. The CCC meeting were held on the 9th of November 2009, and the 30th of June 2010. The minutes from each meeting are provided in Annex H.

7.4 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

The local community are provided an opportunity to comment on Dixon Sand’s impact in the region through the School Survey questionnaires, which are distributed at Maroota Public School twice a year. The information is also available on the Dixon Sand website, and is published as a Press Release every 6 months following the CCC meetings. COMMUNITY SURVEYS

The Surveys provide a method for the local community to comment on the adequacy of Dixon Sands impact in the local region. The surveys are distributed to Maroota Public School and are mostly filled out by parents of children that attend Maroota Public School, and secondarily by teachers.

After distribution only four forms were returned. Similarly with previous reporting periods most of the concerns were raised over the presence of heavy trucks on local roads. Given that no complaints were received in this reporting period, these concerns are likely to be general regarding truck movements, as they did not specify whether the trucks were operating for Dixon Sands Quarry.

It should be noted that the respondents are providing minimal information on the returned surveys, for example no dates were provided on any of the surveys. If the responses continue to be lacking in the next monitoring period, there may need to be a review of the method of distribution and content of the survey form to encourage greater participation in the survey.

LOCAL INITIATIVES


Dixon Sand undertook a number of community initiatives during the 2009/2010 reporting period, including:

• issuing of two press releases to local newsletters; • distribution and collation of community surveys; • provision of all current consents and site management plans for public viewing on

the Dixon Sand website; • donation of sand to local schools for fundraising auction; • continuation of Crofton weed removal from the site.

7.5 ECOLOGICALLY SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Ecologically Sustainable Development (ESD) can be defined as “using, conserving and enhancing the communities resources so that the ecological processes, on which life depends, are maintained and the total quality of life, now and in the future, can be increased” (Commonwealth of Australia, 1992).

The four principles of ESD are listed in Schedule 2 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2000 as follows:

• the precautionary principle; • inter-generational equity; • conservation of biological diversity and ecological integrity; and • improved valuation, pricing and incentive mechanisms.

Both of Dixon Sand’s quarry sites continue to manage all potential threats to the quality of the environment determined with a reasonable degree of certainty through the use of scientific investigation and analysis of the individual and cumulative environmental impacts of the proposal. Long-term environmental fluctuations have been monitored throughout extraction. Groundwater levels, for example, are being monitored to ensure extraction does not reach the groundwater table. Similarly, noise and air quality monitoring will continue throughout the life of the developments. Mitigation measures are in place to minimise the potential adverse impacts likely to affect social and intergenerational equity. These measures relate to erosion and sediment control, surface and groundwater management, air quality control, and noise and waste management. Community relation strategies have continued to ensure the community is well informed and has an effective means of voicing concerns and receiving feedback. The developments aim to protect the biological diversity and ecological integrity of the sites through;

• progressive rehabilitation of the extracted areas; • maintenance of buffer areas to ecologically sensitive sites; • rehabilitation of the site with agricultural and native species; • establishment of native vegetation offset areas to maximise native fauna • habitats; and • providing a final landform that integrates elements of the local area.

The value placed on environmental resources by Dixon Sand is represented as costs associated with the implementation of monitoring and mitigation measures throughout quarrying.


There have been no changes to the social management procedures.


8 WASTE MANAGEMENT

8.1 RECYCLING

During the reporting period, waste oil was removed from the site by a licensed contractor, Nationwide Oil Pty Ltd, for refining and recycling. Scrap steel has been stored on-site in a scrap bin and disposed of off-site by AusScrap Pty Ltd.

Glass, paper, cardboard and plastic was recycled via Council’s collection and waste recycling service. Vehicle tyres (trucks and cars) were sent to SimsMetal for recycling and large tyres are stocked for disposal/recycling.

No building or putrescible wastes have been disposed on the site; no offsite waste has been received at the quarry for storage, treatment or processing. Asquith Miniskips continued to be used for the disposal of office and putrescible waste from the site.


There have been no changes to the waste management procedure during the reporting period.


9 CONCLUSION

9.1 COMPLIANCE STATEMENT

The 2009/2010 Annual Environmental Management Report is a comprehensive annual review of the environmental management measures that have been implemented on the Dixon Sand Old Northern Road and Haerses Road quarries. This report provides a method for Dixon Sand to demonstrate the compliance of each quarrying site with the relevant consents and conditions imposed upon them. A summary of the findings of the report follows:

• Static dust gauge 1 received consistently high readings above the 4g/m!/month annual average, resulting in 8 exceedances out of the 12 monitoring periods. It was determined that this is a result of localised deposition occurring due to quarry traffic through the front gate, and has not resulted in impacts off site. Other notable exceedances occurred at gauge 2 at Haerses Rd; however this was a one off occurrence, showing no trend towards high readings, and with all other results below the criteria. It should also be noted that the results received for October, which would have included deposition from dust storms in September, were not significantly elevated. The annual PM10 level recorded by the TEOM were below the EPA criteria throughout the reporting period. It again should be noted that the monthly PM10 average for September 2009 is exceptionally high due to a major dust storm that swept through Sydney on the 23rd of this month.

• There were originally 14 groundwater bores sunk at the Haerses Rd site, however

there are now only 8 bores remaining as H3 ran dry, and H1, H4, H5, H8 and H10 were removed to make way for quarry and road works.

• A number of the bores sampled at Haerses Road site during the 2009/2010 reporting

period received extremely high readings for Turbidity and TSS which is suspected to be a result of required maintenance or incorrect installation and are not being flushed as groundwater passes through the bores. Further investigation is needed to determine the cause of suspended sediments entering the bores.

• Quarry extractions have remained above the required height, above high wet weather groundwater levels at both sites, and groundwater levels have become stabilised, it is considered that current operational management measures are appropriate for the protection of groundwater on the site.

• An investigation into the adequacy of groundwater bores across both sites has been initiated due to variable monitoring results, and will be reported on during the 2010/2011 reporting period. Until the findings of this investigation have been finalised, the bores will continue to be sampled as per the approved management procedures.

• Results of the noise monitoring identified both the Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sand quarries to be beneath the compliance limits for operation and loading activities at all assessed receivers.

• There were no traffic related complaints received during the 2009/2010 reporting period. However the Community Survey forms revealed that local residents are still concerned with truck movements on the local roads. Dixon Sand has responded by re-enforcing their good driving behaviour policies, and warning individual truck drivers where appropriate.

• The Haerses Rd EIS predicted that the Haerses Road quarry would not increase the total number of truck movements to or from the existing processing plant (max 120


movements per day). A consent modification approved in August 2008 has since increased these numbers to a maximum of 180 vehicle movements per day.

• Monthly site inspection and bush regenerations reports indicate that the exclusion and buffer zones are being effectively maintained at the quarry, and that the threatened species identified on site have been adequately protected. The focus areas for Hearses Road site for 2010-2011 will be the topsoil translocation area. This area will require intensive maintenance throughout the year to prevent weed invasion from suppressing natural regeneration.

• Community impacts are being effectively and responsibly managed through the continued observance of Community Consultation Committee meetings, press releases of CCC meeting minutes, the distribution and collation of School Surveys (feedback forms), and the advertising and ease of access to the Dixon Sand complaint procedures. Dixon Sand has maintained a proactive standard in engaging the local community and key stakeholders. There were no complaints received during the 2009/2010 reporting period.

The AEMR has determined Dixon Sand to be generally compliant with the conditions of consent, and found that the quarries have been operating in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. Based on these outcomes the continued operation of the Old Northern Road and Haerses Road sand quarries is permissible.

9.2 RECOMMENDATIONS

The continued compliance of the Old Northern Road and Haerses Rd sand quarries is indicative of a system that is operating effectively and has little need for improvement. However two items was noted regarding the effectiveness of community surveys:

• The results of School Surveys should be monitored closely during the 2010-2011 monitoring period to determine if sufficient information is being gathered from the community. A change in the survey content and method of distribution may be required depending on how many surveys area returned.

• Access road where vehicles turn out of quarry at front entrance near dust gauge, should be regularly swept to clear sand buildup.

Despite the continued compliance of the quarry sites, the current monitoring procedures should be adhered to and remain unchanged for the 2010-2011 monitoring period.

Noise monitoring was conducted using a Rion NL-32 Sound Level Meter (SLM) set to A weighted / Fast response. Monitoring was conducted at each site, within the shoulder period (6am – 7am) and within normal operating hours (7am – 5pm). Each site was monitored for a duration of 15 minutes within periods mentioned above, with the following data recorded:

• Instantaneous noise levels of background sources such as traffic, aircraft, birds, surrounding industry

• Instantaneous noise levels of audible quarry operations such as crushing, screening, quarry machinery (movements, reverse beepers), trucks (loading & transport)

• Time, location, duration of sample

• LAeq, LAmin, LAmax, LA10 and LA90 parameters

Due to high background noise levels produced by sources such as traffic, surrounding quarry operations and the like, a noise attenuation calculation is used to predict the ‘quarry only’ noise that is likely to be received at any particular resident, which excludes the influence of background noise sources. In order to calculate this, an additional 15 minute measurement is required close enough to the quarry operations so that background noise sources are not audible. Two additional measurements were taken at 15 to 20m from active quarry operations.

4 RESULTS

Noise monitoring at each site provided the following results.


5 DISCUSSION & CONCLUSION

Monitoring has shown that noise emissions produced as a result of quarry operations are below the criteria set out in the consent conditions.

Dixon Sands quarry operations were not distinctly audible at any of the monitoring locations. Traffic was the dominant noise source at the Old Northern Rd monitoring sites. Similarly traffic on Wisemans Ferry Rd was the dominant noise source at Haerses Rd monitoring sites. Birds also contributed considerably to background noise levels. Quarry activities at PF Formation adjacent to Dixon Sands were also intermittently audible Site 2 Haerses Rd.

Bush Regeneration Works

2009-2010

Introduction

The bushland in the area has a high level of biodiversity and it had been a pleasure to work on this site. Bush-it has worked to conserve, maintain and enhance the remnant vegetation on the site that will not be disturbed by the quarry and assist the natural regeneration of the bush in areas previously mined.

Description of works undertaken

Haerses Rd (refer to map)

Old sub–soil capping

Regeneration is encouraging in this area with colonization of native Senecios, Hakeas and grasses. Work in this area has focused on spraying the Whisky grass and other weeds as well as manual removal of the weeds. The following species were planted.

Date Species Qty Dixon Sands, 14 Apr 2010 Eucalytpus piperita (Sydney Peppermint Gum) 200

Dixon Sands, 14 Apr 2010 Eucalyptus haemastoma (Scribbly Gum) 20

Dixon Sands, 14 Apr 2010 Allocasuarina sp. (She Oaks) 30

Dixon Sands, 05 May 2010 Eucalytpus piperita (Sydney Peppermint Gum) 100

Dixon Sands, 05 May 2010 Eucalyptus punctata (Grey Gum) 120

Future translocation site

This area is being prepared for the soil translocation. The weeds, primarily Couch have been sprayed.

Hakea regrowth

This area has been hand weeded and sprayed focusing in Crofton weed to protect the creek line.

Soil source for translocation

This area has been spot sprayed and hand weeded to ensure that there is no weed seed in the source soil. The native seed bank continues to build up and the area shows high resilience.

Mine site (refer to map)

Zone I Western edge

This area shows good regrowth. The area is hand weeded and brush matted. There is a good supply of material in the nearby bush for brush matting.

Zone 2 Southern edge

This area shows good regrowth. It has the highest biodiversity of the areas that we work. The area is hand weeded and brush matted. The Couch is sprayed. There is a good supply of material in the nearby bush for brush matting. The nearby endangered Kunzea rupestris has flowered and set seed.

Achievements

Natural regeneration has been good due to the weeding program. In addition to this it has been assisted by plantings at Hearses Rd. At Hearses Rd some of the leaf litter from the good bush was raked up and spread over the capping. The results are pleasing with regeneration of species that are usually slow to regenerate such as Eucalyptus. It has however not worked as a weed deterent.

Recommendations

The next financial year will see the soil translocation take place and I look forward to seeing the results. Continued native growth in the other areas increase their natural defence against weed invasions and our work over the coming years will increase the biodiversity of the site.

David Dixon (DD)

1.3 INTRODUCTIONS

CH welcomed the new attendee David Gathercole from the Department of Environment, Climate Change and Water (DECCW).

2 PREVIOUS MINUTES

The minutes for the previous meeting were tabled. KM requested that the email of the 09/06/2009 from KM to JC be included. This email states the following:

Kristine McKenzie wrote: 26 May 2009 10:32am

“Hi Jacinta,

I have a concern with one section of the minutes that you sent out last week from the Dixon Sand meeting as I feel that it does not contain adequate detail to address the discussion. Section 5 'General Business' (first dot point) relates to David's question to me


2

about the dwelling which is currently under construction on Lot 2 DP 595538. My recollection is that my comments were as follows:

KM stated that the dwelling was approved by the Building Control Team and that consideration was given to the location of the site in proximity to extractive industries. DD also commented that the current application from PF Formation may impact on the dwelling and that the dwelling was not sited at an adequate distance from the extraction area. KM stated that this was considered in the assessment of the application (not yet determined) and that the separation complied with the DCP requirements. KM also stated that the property owner had been notified of the application.

Is there any way that these comments, if you agree with them, are able to be inserted into the minutes or does it have to wait until the following meeting for me to raise it?”

JC agreed with the tabling of this email and therefore has been included in these minutes.

CH presented the amended minutes for the previous meeting 12 May 2009, a motion was passed by KM to agree the minutes and TB seconded this motion to be a fair record.

3 BUSINESS ARISING FROM PREVIOUS MINUTES

JC was to upload data and previous minutes to the website however due to website maintenance most historical data and reporting had been lost.

Action: JC to copy all documents listed in the agenda and forward to Dixon Sand.

Update: JC has forwarded a DVD to Dixon Sand with all historical data to be uploaded to the website.

4 WORK ACCOMPLISHED IN THE PERIOD

4.1 MPS SCHOOL SURVEY

JC provided an update to the CCC on the results of the MPS survey sent out in May 2009. Discussion among the group was had about the issue of flashing lights at the school and whether Dixon Sand and other quarries would be willing to pursue the installation of non-RTA style flashing lights. CH provided the name of Peter Olsen as a contact for the lights and gave an approximate cost of $1500.00.

NK agreed that this issue has been discussed a few times and that Dixon would be happy to contribute to the installation of the lights.

Action: CH to liaise with MS and MPS regarding the cost and installation of the lights. A letter from the RTA not objecting to the installation of these


3

lights would be required before Dixon Sand would contribute to the cost of the installation.

JC advised that the next round of surveys are due to be sent to MPS for comment.

Action: JC to forward surveys to the school.

Update: JC forwarded surveys to MPS on 02 December 2009.

4.2 NOISE MONITORING

JC informed the CCC that the analysis and report for the continuous 3 month noise monitoring in accordance with condition 4.6A of DA-205-09-01 was finalised and sent to DoP with a copy provided to MPS

Action: JC to forward report to MPS, upload results to the website.

Update: JC forwarded report to MPS 3 December 2009 and file sent to website coordinator

4.3 ANNUAL REPORTING

JC advised the CCC that since May, Dixon’s have forwarded the 2007/2008 AEMR to the DoP who have approved its receipt. JC advised that Dixon Sand are now gathering data for the 2008/2009 AEMR and will be submitted in the New Year

Action: JC to finalise AEMR and forward to DoP once complete.

4.4 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION LICENCE (EPL) RETURNS

JC informed the CCC that Dixon Sand have submitted their annual returns for both the ONR and Haerses Road EPL’s. The EPL’s detailed periods when ‘No Data’ was received from the TEOM during late 2008 and early 2009.

JC also advised the CCC that upon receipt of the Ecotech annual report for the TEOM that the results indicated a very unusual high spike (approx 300) on Midnight 15th April to a peak of approx. 520 in the early morning of the 16th and remained high throughout the day and did not level-out until late evening of 16th April 2009. Due to this exceedence Dixon Sand are required to report this even to DECCW and amend the EPL.

Action: JC to obtain further data from Ecotech, amend relevant page in EPL and submit to DG (DECCW).


4

4.5 HAERSES ROAD INTERSECTION

JC advised the CCC that Dixon Sand are finalising contracts with contractors. The RTA advised that pavement upgrades will be taking place at the intersection of ONR and Wisemans Ferry Road in the new year and to minimise disruption Dixon’s will liaise with the RTA to coordinate works.

4.6 CROWN ROAD ONR

JC informed the CCC that the Crown Road between Dixon Sand and PF Formation has now been finalised and is in operation. Dixon are still continuing to monitor the dust levels at the front gate to determine what effect the opening of the Crown road is having on dust levels and what contribution is due to PF Formation trucks. JC will briefly report on this in 2008/2009 AEMR report, however as it is during the 09/10 reporting period the results will be fully addressed next year.

Action: JC to add comment in the 2008/2009 AEMR.

5 LOTS 1 & 2, LOTS 196 & 29 ONR WORKS

5.1 EXTRACTION AND PROCESSING

JC and NK informed the CCC that extraction and processing material at the ONR site is continuing as planned in the same extraction areas.

NK advised that Dixon Sand will start quarrying the existing PF Formation road which has a good supply of white brickies sand and will take 3-5 years.

5.2 S75W APPLICATION (NW CORNER OF ONR)

JC advised that all consultee responses (DECCW, DII and DoL) have been received and no objections to the proposal have been raised. Owners consent is now required from the DoL to submit the application to DoP.

Action: JC to forward documentation to DoL to support application for owners consent.


5

5.3 DUST RESULTS

5.3.1 Depositional Static Dust

JC advised that Dixons has complied with the EPA criteria of 4.0g/m²/month with the exception the month of March 2009 where dust gauge 1 (front gate) had a broken funnel and a reading was recorded of 6.4/m²/month.

JC noted that the school dust receptor (D6) has complied fully.

JC also noted that the October 2009 results were elevated to 3.7, 3.2 and 3 for D1, D4 and D5 respectively and this may have been contributed by the dust storm in late September.

5.3.2 PM10 Dust

JC again advised that upon receipt of the Ecotech annual report for the TEOM that the results indicated a very unusual high spike (approx 300) on Midnight 15th April to a peak of approx. 520 in the early morning of the 16th and remained high throughout the day and did not level-out until late evening of 16th April 2009. This spike therefore gave a very high monthly average of 217.9(ug/m³). Due to this exceedence Dixon Sand are required to report this even to DECCW and amend the EPL.

Action: JC to obtain further data from Ecotech, amend relevant page in EPL and submit to DG (DECCW).

5.4 WATER QUALITY

5.4.1 S18 Weir

JC stated that there have been no releases in the past 6 months.

5.4.2 Groundwater

Biannual Groundwater Quality

JC presented a table of the monitoring wells at ONR and the results from the April 2009 monitoring event. JC advised due to a fault with the monitoring equipment and the calibration electrical conductivity could not be recorded.

JC also advised that the second monitoring event will occur within the next couple of weeks and that the equipment has only just been calibrated and should record accurate results.


6

The CCC asked JC provide a discussion of the trends and results of the levels and whether they are representative of the area.

Action: JC to ask an ERM water quality expert for a small discussion.

Update: Monitoring is planned for Thursday 10 December 2009, once results have been received a short discussion will be provided and emailed to the CCC.

ONR Groundwater Levels

JC advised that the wells are ‘dipped’ monthly and after a rain event for the current water level by Dixon Sand.

JC presented the groundwater levels of the wells at the ONR site. No abnormalities have been indicated and the wells remain generally consistent.

5.4.3 Revegetation and Weed Management

JC advised Tim and Neridah’s Bush-It team have been working diligently on site to control couch and other weeds on the Sandstone outcrop and buffer area to the south of the site in Lot 29.

TB advised that the management of this area will continue as is through the next 6 months with Fusilade ™ sprayed in autumn when the weather is cooler. Fusilade ™ is a herbicide that treats grasses only. It is an experimental treatment which takes 8-10 for results to appear.

TB advised that the growth of the plants is excellent due to some constant rain and almost all plants are strong and have flowered well during the past 6 months. The organic matter is building up on the sandstone to assist the protected Darwinia growth.

NK also added that he would liaise with DD to get access to the nursery reinstated.

Action: NK to liaise with DD regarding access to the nursery before the New Year.

Action: JC to follow-up with NK before the end of the year and liaise with TB.


7

6 HAERSES ROAD QUARRY

6.1 EXTRACTION AND TRANSPORTATION

JC and CM informed the CCC that eextraction works continuing within stage 2 and that stage 1 was opened about 2 months ago. Transportation of material still continues from the Haerses Road site to the ONR quarry for processing and distribution.

CM advised that the final ground level had been reached in the bottom of the pit in stage 2 and that there is approximately 12 months left in stage 2.

JC also advised that material stored adjacent to stage has now been removed at the request of KM. Small stockpiles of road base and gravel of materials remain as they will be used to maintain Haerses Road.

6.2 DUST RESULTS

6.2.1 Depositional Static Dust

JC advised that notwithstanding the insects and sand in the samples in February, April and June and the dust storms in late September giving the higher readings of 3 and 3.7 in October there has only been 1 exceedence to report. The exceedence was in late August early September due to a field at Haerses Road being released and ploughed ready for crops. This gauge has now been relocated to record a more accurate representation.

6.3 WATER QUALITY

6.3.1 Groundwater

Biannual Groundwater Quality

JC presented a table of the monitoring wells at Haerses Road and the results from the April 2009 monitoring event. JC advised due to a fault with the monitoring equipment and the calibration electrical conductivity could not be recorded.

JC also advised that the second monitoring event will occur within the next couple of weeks and that the equipment has only just been calibrated and should record accurate results.

The CCC asked JC provide a discussion of the trends and results of the levels and whether they are representative of the area.


8

Action: JC to ask an ERM water quality expert for a small discussion.

Update: Monitoring is planned for Thursday 10 December 2009, once results have been received a short discussion will be provided and emailed to the CCC.

Haerses Road Groundwater Levels

JC advised that the wells are ‘dipped’ monthly and after a rain event for the current water level by Dixon Sand.

JC presented the groundwater levels of the wells at the Haerses Road site. No abnormalities have been indicated and the wells remain generally consistent.

6.3.2 Revegetation and Weed Management

JC advised that Tim and Neridah’s Bush-It team have been working diligently at the translocation area to control invasive grasses such as couch, pigeon and whisky grass and other weeds such as Crofton weed. TB advised that they are monitoring the Crofton weed and keeping it under control and away from the lower edge of the area.

The regeneration in the translocated area is slowly coming along with a good representation of diversity, approximately 30 species. TB advised that Mark Walters was on site last week and recommended orange safety fencing to restrict Wallaby’s from entering the area and eating the young plants.

TB stated that with regard to the newly spread subsoil, couch will be a problem due to historical contamination therefore specific attention to keep this under control is needed. TB advised that after 6 months of treating weeds and in the winter time topsoil can be laid.
