Sustainable communities Karen Elphick – Manager Community Development at Cloncurry Shire Council, hosts a meeting at Cloncurry Shire Hall. Karen’s position has been funded by EHM under the Xstrata Community Partnership Program North Queensland (XCPPNQ) from 2008–10 An action plan considering each of these concerns will be developed and implemented during 2011. The Community Attitudes Survey (CAS) conducted in 2009 identified four main areas of concern facing the Cloncurry community. During 2010 we continued to address the community’s concerns: Water problems EHM installed additional surface water management infrastructure on site to improve its ability to capture and control surface water and to reduce the risk of discharge events occurring. Further improvements will be made during 2011. These improvements will help protect natural waterways and aquatic environments and will also increase our water re-use capabilities on site. Please refer to the Environmental performance section from page 96 for more information on these and other improvements. Unemployment EHM continued to deliver the Graduate and Vacation Work programs and provided work experience opportunities for local students. We also expanded our Indigenous training and employment initiatives through various programs. Towards the end of the year we commenced the recruitment process for six new locally-based apprentices to commence employment at EHM in 2011. Through the XCPPNQ we continued to support the Cloncurry Shire Council and its Community and Economic Development Advisor role. Fly-in/fly-out workforce In 2010, EHM offered improved incentives for locally-based employees to help attract more people to live and remain in Cloncurry. Please see the case study on page 52 to read about these incentives. Future of EHM and town EHM advanced its shaft underground mine and magnetite processing projects during 2010. Please see the case study on page 27 for more information on these projects. We also continued to support the Cloncurry Community Precinct project by providing $750,000 under the XCPPNQ. Corporate Social Involvement program In 2010 the XCPPNQ supported 10 initiatives in Cloncurry with a program value of $665,000. Details of these partnerships are located in the community partnership table on page 72. In addition, EHM invested $196,898 in 2010 on sponsorships, donations and other community support initiatives in Cloncurry (see pie graph below). A selection of our sponsorships and donations in 2010 included support for the Cloncurry and District Agricultural Show; Cloncurry Stockman’s Challenge; Curry Merry Muster Festival; Australian Festival of Chamber Music’s Community Concert; a new prep playground at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School and a rail history display facility to be constructed by the Cloncurry Historical Society at Mary Kathleen Memorial Park. Funding was also provided to support the purchase of new equipment for Cloncurry Authentic Taekwondo Club and Cloncurry Scouts. We also completed maintenance work and repairs at the Cloncurry Recreation Grounds; loaned equipment to Cloncurry PCYC to assist with fundraising activities; provided materials required for the installation of the new prep playground at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School; performed electrical maintenance works at Cloncurry Blue Care; and provided funding towards trees planted at Cloncurry Cemetery as part of National Tree Day.
