Guideline TRACKABLE WASTE & POLLUTION INCIDENT MANAGEMENT

US-050055-ENV-GL-011 Page 2 of 16 PROJECT-1301499482-339 Uncontrolled when printed VERSION 1.1

1. Introduction

The purpose of this Trackable Waste Transport Pollution Incident Response Management Guideline (US-050055-ENV-GL-011) is to provide information, instruction and management strategies to effectively manage all potential pollution incidents on land or marine environments relating to the Kendall Bay Sediment Remediation Project. The plan provides compliance with Department of Planning & Environment Conditions, outlined in Section 5.4 (Appendix F – DP&E Compliance Elements) of this Guideline, and NSW EPA EPL 21302 requirement R1.1 to prepare a Pollution Incident Response Management Plan.

2. Purpose

Jemena Limited holds an Environment Protection Licence with the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) for Kendall Bay and Staging Site at 140 Tennyson Road, Mortlake, NSW, 2137. As per the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 (the POEO Act), the holder of an Environment Protection Licence must prepare, keep, test and implement a pollution incident response management plan (PIRMP) that complies with Part 5.7A of the POEO Act in relation to the activity to which the licence relates. If a pollution incident occurs in the course of an activity so that material harm to the environment (within the meaning of section 147 of the POEO Act) is caused or threatened, the person carrying on the activity must immediately implement this plan in relation to the activity required by Part 5.7A of the POEO Act. A written copy of this plan must be kept at 140 Tennyson Road, Mortlake, or where the activity takes place in the case of mobile plant licences, and be made available on request by an authorised NSW EPA Officer and to any person who is responsible for implementing this plan. Parts of the plan must also be available either on a publicly accessible website, or if there is no such website, by providing a copy of the plan to any person who makes a written request. The sections of the plan that are required to be publicly available are set out in clause 98D of the Protection of the Environment Operations (General) Regulation 2009.
