EIS Scoping Study\Final draft\NRPP EIS Scoping Study_130312.docx Revision D - 13 March 2012 i AECOM Nepean River Pump and Pipeline Executive Summary This Environmental Impact Statement Scoping Study is submitted on behalf of Penrith Lakes Development Corporation in support of a development application for the construction and operation of a pumping station and pipeline (the Development) to pump water from the Nepean River to the lakes of the Penrith Lakes Scheme. The objective of the Development is to allow the extraction of water from the Nepean River to discharge into the Penrith Lakes Scheme to enable initial filling of the lakes as well as securing a long-term water supply, to maintain water levels in the lakes. The Development would be submitted under Division 4.1, Part 4 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 as a State Significant Development. A project application was previously submitted and approved in 2007 under Part 3A of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 for a pump and pipeline at a different location to that proposed for this development. The previous approved location has since been reviewed due to the Western Sydney Recycled Water Initiative – Replacement Flows Project. A new location was determined to be more suitable following changes since the 2007 approval. The 2007 Part 3A approval will lapse in 2012. The Development The Development to be assessed would involve the construction of a pumping station, motor control centre and up to 150 m of pipeline from the Nepean River to the discharge point on Penrith Lakes Development Corporation land. From the discharge point the water would filter through a constructed wetland into the lakes system. The detailed design of the wetlands will form part of the PLDC two-year plan approval process. Key Environmental Issues The key environmental issues associated with the Development would include: - Hydrological regime and water quality of Nepean River and Penrith Lakes Scheme; - Terrestrial and aquatic ecology; and - Indigenous and non-Indigenous heritage. Other environmental issues that would be considered in the Environmental Impact Statement but are not considered to be key environmental assessment issues include land use, landscape and visual amenity, topography, geology and soils, noise and vibration, and waste. As part of the preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement, studies would be carried out to assess the potential environmental impacts of the Development and to identify mitigation and management measures to minimise impacts on the environment during construction and operation of the Development. The preparation of the Environmental Impact Statement would include consultation with key stakeholders, including State government agencies, and the local community as required.

EIS Scoping Study\Final draft\NRPP EIS Scoping Study_130312.docx Revision D - 13 March 2012 1 AECOM Nepean River Pump and Pipeline 1.0 Introduction Penrith Lakes Development Corporation (PLDC) is seeking approval for the construction and operation of a pumping station and pipeline to extract water from the Nepean River and discharge it into the Penrith Lakes Scheme (PLS) (the Development). The Development would provide the infrastructure required to pump water from the Nepean River to initially fill the lakes within the PLS and to maintain ongoing lake water levels. The PLS is located on 1,935 ha of the Cumberland floodplain on the banks of the Nepean River, to the north-west of the Penrith Central Business District (CBD), and approximately 55 km to the west of the Sydney CBD (Figure 1.1) (PLDC, 2007). PLDC and the concept of the PLS was established in 1980, comprising an alliance between the companies originally mining in the area. Since the establishment of the PLS, sand and gravel mining in the area has provided approximately 50% of Sydney’s sand and aggregate requirements, with approximately nine million tonnes of raw material remaining to be extracted (PLDC, 2012).

  • Possible Outline of Research Design
    13 2.0 Historical Background 2.1 Development of Sydney7 From its establishment in 1788 Sydney developed rapidly into a dominant, large and urbanised city. This was not the original intention of its founders who expected New South Wales to take its place within a network of trading centres, channelling raw materials and acting as an administrative centre. Therefore, the colony was not supposed to manufacture goods and, to the ruling classes, was a difficult entity to explain. In Britain urbanisation was the product of industrialisation.8 Sydney 1788 - 1830 Aboriginal people had been living in the Port Jackson estuary and wider area for tens of thousands of years, although they left little evidence of their occupation on the landscape. Following British settlement at Port Jackson in 1788 the landscape changed rapidly, in a short period of time. The colony embarked on an extensive land clearance program with the aim of cultivation. This proved unsuccessful and eventually the main food production took place further west, on the Nepean and Hawkesbury Rivers. Poor land cultivation practises promoted incredibly high erosion, resulting in increased sedimentation in the Port Jackson estuary and surrounding watercourses.9 Within a week of landing the Governor’s house had been constructed, tents had been erected and some small huts compiled from bush materials. A hospital and storehouses were constructed within the first five months. By 1790 more substantial store buildings were being constructed, as increasing amount of produce came from the river regions, and goods were imported. Also around this time allotments started to be fenced and rough streets and lanes laid out.
