1. THE POLICY GUIDELINE 1.1 The State Planning Policy Guideline: Protection of Extractive Resources (the Policy Guideline) provides information and advice on implementing the State Planning Policy: Protection of Extractive Resources (the Policy). 1.2 The Policy cites the Policy Guideline as ‘extrinsic material’ under the Statutory Instruments Act 1992, giving the Policy Guideline legal status in assisting in the interpretation of the Policy. 2. POLICY OUTCOME Need to protect extractive resources 2.1 The Policy outcome is to identify those extractive resources of State or regional significance where extractive industry development is appropriate in principle, and protect those resources from developments that might prevent their future extraction. 2.2 Extractive resources are deposits of sand, gravel, quarry rock, clay and soil. They are essential to the State and regional economies, and the community, as the primary raw materials for the construction industry. Extractive resources are extracted and processed for use in concrete, road bases, asphalt, rail track ballast, breakwater construction, drainage materials, mortar and plaster, and a range of other products. 2.3 Extractive resources are high volume, low value products, and the economic viability of an extractive resource depends on its proximity to markets and urban areas. Encroachment by incompatible development can restrict or prevent the extraction, processing and transportation of extractive resources to markets. The amenity of the community surrounding the extractive resource and transport route also needs to be protected from any potential adverse effects of extractive industry. 2.4 Under the Integrated Planning Act 1997 a local government, both in plan making and in development assessment, is required to advance the Act’s purpose. This includes, amongst other matters, the sustainable use of non-renewable natural resources such as extractive resources. The Act recognises extractive deposits of economic value as ‘valuable features’, which are a component of the ‘core matters’ the Act requires planning schemes to address.

3. APPLICATION OF THE POLICY 2 Effect of the Policy 3.1 The Policy is a statutory instrument under the Integrated Planning Act 1997. Under the Act the Policy has effect— (a) in development assessment when the Policy is not appropriately reflected in the applicable planning scheme; (b) when planning schemes are made or amended; and (c) when land is designated for community infrastructure. Areas to which the Policy applies 3.2 The Policy identifies extractive resources of State or regional significance as Key Resource Areas. The criteria for determining extractive resources of State and regional significance are described in Appendix 1. 3.3 The Policy applies to premises within Key Resource Areas. Key Resource Areas contain the following elements— (a) a resource/processing area; (b) a separation area; and (c) an associated transport route (which also includes a separation area) where such a link is needed from the resource/processing area to a major road or railway. 3.4 The Key Resource Areas are listed by local government area in Annex 2 and are shown on maps in Annex 3 of the Policy. Appendix 3 of the Policy Guideline provides information about each Key Resource Area. 3.5 The resource/processing area indicates the extent of the extractive resource and any existing or future operational areas associated with extraction and processing of the resource. Extraction can include ripping, blasting or dredging and processing can include crushing, screening, washing, blending or grading, wastewater treatment, and associated activities can include storage, rehabilitation, loading, transportation, administration, and maintenance facilities. 3.6 The separation area surrounds the resource/processing area and is needed to maintain separation of people from undesirable levels of noise, dust, ground vibration, or air blast overpressure 1 that may be produced as residual impacts from existing or future extraction or processing of the extractive resource. 3.7 The mapped extent of the resource/processing area was based upon the best information available when the Policy was prepared. However, it may be possible that an extractive resource deposit may extend beyond the boundary of the resource/processing area. Where this occurs extractive industry development should only take place in the separation area where the function of the separation area as a buffer is not compromised. 1 See Section 6, Glossary.
