EA Condition
Action Program
B5 The standard fuels which may be burned in mining process fuel burning equipment is natural gas/coal. N/A Monitoring of Contaminant Releases to the Atmosphere B6 The holder of this approval must conduct and keep records of a monitoring
As per condition A3 of the EA, the EA holder is operating under Care and Maintenance and the Project is managed by DNRME. Only minor activities will occur on site during the term of this PoO. These will include maintenance and environmental investigations. Upon commencement of mining, a new plan will be provided, and monitoring will be undertaken if requested by the administering authority.
program of contaminant releases to the atmosphere at the release points, frequency, and for the parameter specified in Table 82 – Required release point determinations and which complies with the following: (a) Monitoring provisions for the release points listed in Table 82 – Required release point determinations must comply with Australian Standard AS 4323.1 — 1995 'Stationary source emissions Method 1: Selection of sampling provisions' (or more recent editions); (b) All determinations of contaminant releases to the atmosphere must be made in accordance with methods prescribed in the most recent version of the administering authority's Air Quality Sampling Manual. If monitoring requirements for specific contaminants are not described in the administering authority's Air Quality Sampling Manual, monitoring protocols must be in accordance with: i. for odour, Australian and New Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4323.3:2001, Stationary source emissions — Determination of odour concentration by dynamic olfactometry; and ii. for other contaminants, a method as approved by administering authority. (c) The following tests must be performed for each required determination specified in Table 82 – Required release point determinations: i. gas velocity and volume flow rate; ii. temperature and oxygen content; and iii. water vapour concentration. (d) Where practicable samples taken must be representative of the contaminants discharged when emissions are expected to be at maximum rates; (e) During the sampling period the following additional information must be gathered: i. plants throughput rate at the time of sampling; ii. fuel type and consumption rate; iii. any factors that may influence odour and particulates emissions; iv. the odour and particulates treatment system operating, system status and rate; and v. reference to the actual test methods and accuracies.
