The Proposal
B G & J M Barwick Pty. Ltd. had proposed the establishment of a facility at 3 Weily Park Road, Bridgewater for the shredding of up to 300,000 end of life tyres per annum and transport off-site for disposal.
The proponent has lodged a Development Application with a supporting Environmental Effects Report (EER) to the Brighton Council.
The application was referred to the Board of the Environment Protection Authority (the Board) for assessment under the Environmental Management and Pollution Control Act 1994 (EMPCA).
Public Exhibition of Documentation
A copy of the permit application and all plans and other documentation submitted with the permit application (including the EER) were made available for public inspection. The public comment period is now closed.
Environmental Effects Report

The EER was prepared by the proponent on the basis of the project specific guidelines for preparation of an EER which were provided by the Board.
