The Proposal
Rushy Holdings Pty Ltd has proposed to construct and operate a Level 2 quarry (1879P/M) off Cape Portland Road, removing up to 20,000 cubic
metres of dolerite resource per annum.
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).
The Proponent lodged a Development Application with a supporting Environmental Effects Report (EER) to the Dorset Council.
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.
Public Exhibition of Documentation and Public Representations
A copy of the permit application, and of all plans and other documentation submitted with the permit application (including the EER)
were advertised for public comment. The public comment period is now closed.
Following the public comment period the proponent was required by the Board to prepare an EER Supplement to address the issues raised in
public and Government Agency consultation.
