Introduction This Initial Advice Statement (IAS) has been prepared on behalf of Queensland Rail Limited (QR) identifying the potential environmental impacts associated with the construction and operation of the Moura Link - Aldoga Rail Project. 1.1 Background To cater for new tonnages from existing and new coal mines, QR is proposing a major expansion of its rail network in the less populated areas to the immediate north of greater Gladstone. This will include the construction of a new rollingstock maintenance facility, provisioning facility, new rail corridor and expansion of existing rail corridor. These works will be developed in parallel to and service a number of facilities, including the new Wiggins Island Coal Terminal (WICT) located in the Port of Gladstone. The Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared for the WICT included rollingstock maintenance and provisioning facilities, and new rail works, but at a location closer to the proposed coal terminal. In response to feedback received during the EIS consultation phase, QR has decided to proceed with a revised concept for the proposed rail works. The revised rail concept has the proposed rollingstock maintenance facility, provisioning facility and associated infrastructure located away from the WICT in the north of the Gladstone State Development Area (GSDA). The WICT Supplementary EIS therefore proposed a corresponding reduction in the scope of the WICT rail works. The WICT rail works now include only a rail loop to service the terminal, and the quadruplication of the North Coast Line (NCL) between the new rail loop and the north-western edge of the Mount Stowe State Forest (just east of Yarwun township). The proposed rollingstock maintenance facility and provisioning facilities are now to be constructed alongside the NCL, within the northern GSDA at Aldoga. The new rail corridor will extend north from the Moura Short Line (MSL), with a link to the East End Mine Branch Line (EEMBL) and into the existing NCL. Additional tracks are proposed to be added to the NCL between Mount Larcom and Yarwun. The proposed project area is shown in Figure 1. 1.2 Queensland coal transport QR is the provider of major linkages in the coal supply chain. QR’s Coal Fact Sheet (2007) states that QR has grown its coal tonnages in Queensland: • From 96 million tonnes (Mt) in 1997/98 to 164.7 Mt in 2006/07 • 7% more than the 2005/06 figure of 153.7 Mt • This figure could increase to 240 Mt by 2010 Major Queensland coal rail systems are shown in Figure 2. Gladstone is the hub for the Blackwater and Moura rail systems and accommodates both electric and non-electric locomotive haul trains. QR aims to upgrade the Moura and Blackwater systems from the current 55 Mtpa to approximately 90 Mtpa in the future. The ultimate capacity will be further refined during the Preliminary Engineering and EIS phase. 1.2.1 Moura system The Moura rail system is a non-electrified line that connects the Moura, Callide and Boundary Hill mines to the RG Tanna and Barney Point coal export terminals at Gladstone. It also links the three mines with domestic coal users such as Queensland Alumina Limited (QAL) and the Gladstone Power Station.

The GIRTP Study Team acknowledges the fi nancial support provided by Queensland Transport, Department of Main Roads, Gladstone Port Authority, Calliope Shire Council, Gladstone City Council and QR. The GIRTP Study Team expresses, too, its appreciation of the assistance and support provided by the members of the GIRTP Steering Committee and GIRTP Technical Committee. foreword forewordGladstone is a significant, growing regional and industrial centre. The sustainable growth of the Gladstone area is vital to both the Central Queensland region and the State, due to its employment generation capacity and contribution to the nation’s trade position and transport is critical to achieving this. The Queensland Government and Gladstone City and Calliope Shire Councils are committed to generating jobs and prosperity in the region. The development of the Gladstone Integrated Regional Transport Plan (GIRTP) is a practical example of this commitment to regional economic development. Given the significance of Gladstone as a major industrial centre in Queensland, an important emphasis of the GIRTP is on freight and commodity movements. However, the GIRTP also considers other transport issues such as passenger transport in and through the region and walking and cycling, and recognises that the region’s transport system must be developed in an ecologically sustainable manner and in a way which contributes to an attractive lifestyle for residents.
