Sheet 4 – Amenity and Environmental Quality SHEET 4 – AMENITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY The objective of this information sheet is to: • summarise the status and the key findings of the amenity and environmental quality investigations to date; and • invite feedback on the draft environment effects statement (EES) scoping requirements relating to amenity and environmental quality. Status of study program Study Consultant Status Landscape and visual impact assessment Urbis Ongoing Noise impact assessment AECOM Commencing Vibration impact assessment Yet to be awarded Proposed Air quality impact assessment ERM Ongoing Energy and greenhouse gas assessment Yet to be awarded Proposed Traffic and transport impact assessment TrafficWorks Commencing Radiation impact assessment Yet to be awarded Ongoing Hazard and risk assessment Yet to be awarded Ongoing Socioeconomic impact assessment EMM Commencing Key findings to date The EES will assess Project-related impacts on amenity and environmental quality, including air quality, noise, vibration, radiation, socioeconomic, hazards and risks, traffic and transport. These assessments will be informed by the baseline monitoring results and will include a particular focus on potential impacts on the residences within the mine layout development envelope and the immediate vicinity. Amenity and environmental quality baseline monitoring to date includes: • Meteorology: Iluka installed three automatic weather stations in February 2019 to measure meteorological conditions for a one-month period. One station was installed within the proposed mine layout envelope (at the WIM100 test pit), one at the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) Horsham Aerodrome automatic weather station (AWS) approximately 35 kilometres (km) north-east of the test pit, and a third at the BoM Kanagulk AWS approximately 25 km south-west of the test pit. The stations measured wind speed, wind direction, temperature, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure, with the data used to assess whether the existing BoM AWS locations are representative of weather conditions at the Project site. A continuous weather station was installed within the mine layout development envelope in July 2019 and measurement of temperature (2 m, 10 m), barometric pressure, solar radiation, rainfall, relative humidity, and wind direction and speed commenced in August 2019.
