Alcoa<br />
(1) Mineral Lease 1SA (ML1SA) is the only tenement held by Alcoa. ML1SA was<br />
granted under the Alumina Refinery Agreement Act 1961, which is the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Minister for State Development. ML1SA covers 7,129 square kilometres.<br />
(2) Approximately 600 <strong>hectares</strong> in total are mined and rehabilitated each year. This<br />
information is publicly available at:<br />
http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/info_page/mining rehab.asp<br />
(3) Alcoa is currently producing at full capacity. The Wagerup refinery Unit Three<br />
expansion remains on hold. This information is publicly available at:<br />
http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/infopage/WAG home.asp<br />
(4) Approximately 16,727 <strong>hectares</strong> (excluding infrastructure, haul roads, conveyors etc).<br />
(5) Approximately 20,747 <strong>hectares</strong> (including infrastructure, haul roads, conveyors etc).<br />
(6) Approximately 16,727 <strong>hectares</strong>.<br />
(7) Native species have been used in rehabilitation since 1988. Non-native eucalypt<br />
species were used up until 1988 in accordance with prescriptions agreed with State<br />
Government agencies. This was due to the concern that the native forest dominant ( jarrah)<br />
would be killed by dieback caused by a tropical fungus (Phytophthora cinnamomi) if it<br />
was established in rehabilitated areas.<br />
As a result <strong>of</strong> research showing that jarrah has survived well in rehabilitated areas that<br />
were known to contain the fungus only native species have been used in rehabilitation<br />
since 1988. More information is available at:<br />
http://www. alcoa. com/australia/en/infopage/mining rehab. asp<br />
(8) See (1) above. This information is publicly available on Alcoa's website at:<br />

(11) The following active drying areas are required for each refinery:<br />
Kwinana 135 <strong>hectares</strong>;<br />
<strong>Pinjarra</strong> <strong>294</strong> <strong>hectares</strong>; and<br />
Wagerup 201 <strong>hectares</strong>.<br />
Alcoa's residue area requirements are described in the Long Term Residue Management<br />
Strategy (LTRMS) documents for each location. These are published on Alcoa's website<br />
at:<br />
http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/infopage/our challenges residue management. asp<br />
Note: The Kwinana and Wagerup LTRMS documents are currently being reviewed.<br />
Updated versions will be published on Alcoa's website when finalised later this year.<br />
(12) Kwinana 543 <strong>hectares</strong> (as at December 2011);<br />
<strong>Pinjarra</strong> 780 <strong>hectares</strong> (as at November 2010); and<br />
Wagerup 610 <strong>hectares</strong> (as at April 2012.
This information is made available in LTRMS documents for each location. These are<br />
published on Alcoa's website at:<br />
http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/infopage/our challenges residue management. asp<br />
Note: The Kwinana and Wagerup LTRMS documents are currently being reviewed.<br />

(14) Approximately 18 million tonnes. This information is publicly available on Alcoa's<br />
website at:<br />
http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/pdf/Sustainability/2010 Alcoa <strong>of</strong> <strong>Australia</strong> Sustainab<br />
ility Report.pdf<br />
(15) As at December 2011, the following amounts <strong>of</strong> residue had been produced by each<br />
<strong>of</strong> Alcoa's refineries:<br />
Kwinana 147,819,698 tonnes;<br />
<strong>Pinjarra</strong> 211,927,157 tonnes; and<br />
Wagerup 93,536,685 tonnes.<br />
(16) See (3) above. Further information is publicly available at:<br />
http://www.alcoa.com/australia/en/info_page/WAG home.asp<br />
(17) Alcoa has a Long Term Residue Management Strategy (LTRMS) for each refinery<br />
which incorporates community consultation. The LTRMS includes information about<br />
life-<strong>of</strong>-mine planning, rehabilitation plans and residue reuse research. These documents<br />
are publicly available on Alcoa's website at:<br />
http://www. alcoa. com/australia/en/info_page/Residue Management LTRMS . a sp<br />
(18) ML 1SA currently expires in 2045 but provision exists in the Alumina Refinery<br />
Agreement Act 1961 for Alcoa to apply for a further mineral lease. This information is<br />
publicly available at:<br />
http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/wa/consol act/araa1961256/<br />
(19) See (3) above. Further information is available at:<br />

(21) Alcoa's operations in <strong>Western</strong> <strong>Australia</strong> are covered under three State Agreement<br />
Acts and are governed by Ministerial Statements and conditions imposed by the Minister<br />
for Environment, pursuant to the provisions <strong>of</strong> the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP<br />
Act). Compliance is monitored through various reports that are provided to appropriate<br />
regulatory agencies for consideration. Generally, EP Act Part V "licencing" requirements<br />
are dealt with by Alcoa and the specific regulatory agencies directly.<br />
(22) The Mining and Management Program Liaison Group (MMPLG) was established in<br />
1979 and formally endorsed under the EP Act by Ministerial Statement 390 in 1995. The<br />
MMPLG is comprised <strong>of</strong> representatives from appropriate State Government agencies<br />
whose areas <strong>of</strong> responsibility are affected by Alcoa's operations. The MMPLG receives<br />
rolling 5 year Mining and Management Plans (MMPs) from Alcoa on an annual basis for<br />
review. Agencies provide comments through the MMPLG on the adequacy <strong>of</strong> the<br />
information provided by Alcoa. The MMPLG recommends to the Minister for State<br />
Development the approval <strong>of</strong> Alcoa's annual MMP. Prior to approval being granted, the
Minister for State Development seeks the endorsement <strong>of</strong> the Minister for Environment<br />
that sufficient consultation has taken place, including local community consultation.
Worsley Alumina Pty Ltd<br />
(1) Mining Lease 258SA was granted in accordance with the Alumina Refinery (Worsley)<br />
Agreement Act 1973, which is the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the Minister for State Development. It is<br />
approximately 269,611.42 <strong>hectares</strong> in size.<br />
(2) This figure varies each year as the mining program is designed to meet its annual alumina<br />
production target. The area mined each year will depend on the productivity <strong>of</strong> the ore body.<br />
In FY2012, 179 <strong>hectares</strong> was mined.<br />
(3) Worsley's future mining program is designed to meet its 4.7 million tonne per annum<br />

<strong>hectares</strong> <strong>of</strong> private property.<br />
(7) Jarrah forest species have been used in all rehabilitation undertaken at the mine.<br />
(8) See (1) above.<br />

(18) Mining Lease 258SA was granted under the Alumina Refinery (Worsley) Agreement Act<br />
1973 in 1983 and allows for two consecutive renewal periods <strong>of</strong> 21 years. The current expiry<br />
date is 2046 but provision exists for a further mining lease to be granted under the Mining Act<br />
1978.<br />
(19) Construction has been completed and commissioning is progressing with an anticipated<br />
completion date <strong>of</strong> mid-2013.<br />
