The mining lease is transferred to the operating entity. This involve an application and what is termed a \u2018mining plan\u2019 which describes the activity and includes a quarrying plan to show how the resource will be fully developed in an efficient manner over time<\/p>\n

The operators have a comprehensive mining management plan approved by and under lease permit condition requirements, flora and fauna survey conducted and continue to be monitored to ensure that the quarry is low risk to disturbing any threatened flora, fauna or communities.<\/p>\n

The Operator has constructed sediment retention basin to prevent uncontrolled runoff from the quarry entering the receiving environment.<\/p>\n

Weed incursion risks are monitored and controlled for ongoing treatment by introducing weed and disease hygiene management measures.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Specialised Consulting Contractors are commissioned by Highland Mineral Resources to conduct monitoring and risk assessment for weeds and Phytophthora cinnamomi <\/em>(Phytophthora) at the Arthurs Lake Quarry and adjacent internal property areas.<\/p>\n

Monitoring for weed species entering and or present on-site, also carry out mitigation control methods and report any necessary implementation actions required, and evaluates the likelihood of Phytophthora occurring. monitoring protocols for early detection and recommends management actions to prevent or limit the pathogen\u2019s spread if detected and ongoing weed control for quarrying processing and cartage equipment hygiene measures.<\/p>\n

The Operator had blasting noise modelling undertaken that shows no existing proximity dwellings will experience air-blast overpressure or ground vibration in excess of acceptable limits.<\/p>\n

A mechanical noise study found that under worst case scenario condition requirements of the Quarry Code of Practice with regard to mechanical noise will be within the required limits.<\/p>\n

The existing surrounding eucalypt forest and woodland that screens the quarry from Arthurs Lake Road are supplemented with an additional planting to ensure that the quarry remains concealed from the direction of Arthurs Lake.<\/p>\n

Arthurs Lake Quarry can continue to operate at an annual production rate without any adverse effects on the receiving environmental or the local community.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
