Air Quality & Greenhouse Gas Management Plan 4/12 The Proponent shall prepare and implement an Air Quality & Greenhouse Gas Management Plan for the project to the satisfaction of the Director-General. This plan must be prepared in consultation with DECC by a suitably qualified expert whose appointment has been approved by the Director-General, and submitted to the Director- General for approval by the end of June 2010. It must also provide for real-time air quality monitoring. SOIL & WATER Discharges 4/14 The Proponent shall ensure that all surface water discharges from the site comply with the discharge limits (both volume and quality) set for the project in any EPL. Surface Facilities Water Management Plan 4/15 The Proponent shall prepare and implement a Water Management Plan for the surface facilities area and two ventilation shaft sites to the satisfaction of the Director-General. This plan must be prepared in consultation with DWE and DECC by a suitably qualified expert/ whose appointment has been endorsed by the Director-General, and submitted to the Director-General for approval by the end of June 2010. In addition to the standard requirements for management plans (see condition 2 of schedule 7), this plan must: (a) (b) include a comprehensive water balance for the project; and ensure that suitable measures are implemented to minimise water use, control erosion, prevent groundwater contamination, and comply with any surface water discharge limits. Note: The water balance in this plan must be suitably integrated with both the Catchment Monitoring Program and the Water Management Plans that form part of the Extraction Plan. Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Management Plan, Dec 2011 Letter from Planning re Approval of Air Quality and Greenhouse Management Plan, 14 Apr 2011 Environmental Earth Sciences Monitoring Data Reports, Aug-Nov 2011 Surface Facilities Water Management Plan, Sep 2010 Letter from DP&I re Endorsement of Experts, 12 Mar 2011 Letter from Planning re Approval of Surface Facilities Water Management Plan, 14 Apr 2011 C Noted C C An Air Quality and Greenhouse Gas Management Plan was submitted to the Director-General in June 2010, and approved by DP&I. The Plan included real time air quality monitoring with TEOM PM 10 monitoring and SMS alert system established at the mine site. The TEOM unit has a minimum reporting interval of 10 minutes, a local storage of two months and a telemetry system connected to a computer for data storage and display of results via a wireless data link to a control point within the Metropolitan Coal offices. The Revision Table notes that the first revision (Rev A) of the Surface Facilities Water Management Plan (SFWMP) was distributed to DECC, NSW Office of Water and DP&I. The Surface Facilities Water Management Plan was prepared by Gilbert & Associates Pty Ltd and HCPL. These experts were endorsed by DP&I on 12 March 2011. The Surface Facilities Water Management Plan was prepared in consultation with DECCW, NSW Office of Water and DoP in September 2010. The revised document addressing comments received from the authorities was approved by DoP on 14 April 2011.
