  • Ceduna 3D Marine Seismic Survey, Great Australian Bight
    Referral of proposed action Project title: Ceduna 3D Marine Seismic Survey, Great Australian Bight 1 Summary of proposed action 1.1 Short description BP Exploration (Alpha) Limited (BP) proposes to undertake the Ceduna three-dimensional (3D) marine seismic survey across petroleum exploration permits EPP 37, EPP 38, EPP 39 and EPP 40 located in the Great Australian Bight (GAB). The proposed survey area is located in Commonwealth marine waters of the Ceduna sub-basin, between 1000 m and 3000 m deep, and is about 400 km west of Port Lincoln and 300 km southwest of Ceduna in South Australia. The proposed seismic survey is scheduled to commence no earlier than October 2011 and to conclude no later than end of May 2012. The survey is expected to take approximately six months to complete allowing for typical weather downtime. Outside this time window, metocean conditions become unsuitable for 3D seismic operations. The survey will be conducted by a specialist seismic survey vessel towing a dual seismic source array and 12 streamers, each 8,100 m long. 1.2 Latitude and longitude The proposed survey area is shown in Figure 1 with boundary coordinates provided in Table 1.

  • Annual Report Details the Last 12 Months Activity Undertaken by the EPLGA, Its Financial Accounts, and Operative Regional Collaborative Partnerships
    EYRE PENINSULA LOCAL GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION A N N U A L R E P O R T 2019-20 W W W . E P L G A . C O M . A U Authors: Peter Scott Executive Officer Eyre Peninsula Local Government Association Sue Henriksen Business Support Officer Regional Development Australia Eyre Peninsula Inc. Cover photo: Murphy's Haystacks, Eyre Peninsula. Photo: SATC. Eyre Peninsula Local Government Association THE PRESIDENT’S REPORT This annual report details the last 12 months activity undertaken by the EPLGA, its financial accounts, and operative regional collaborative partnerships. The vision and goal of the EPLGA, to “enable Eyre Peninsula councils to excel, innovate, and thrive”, has never been more relevant for the region than now. We have been facing many challenges and opportunities, with the need for the councils of the EP to be working closely together. The EPLGA has seen a change in the position of Executive Officer, with Tony Irvine retiring at the end of 2019. The contribution which Tony has made over many years of involvement with local government on the Eyre Peninsula deserves recognition, especially his time as the EPLGA Executive Officer. The EPLGA is in a much stronger position due to the work which has been done by Tony over his tenure. Peter Scott was appointed in February 2020, bringing with him already established knowledge and relationships from his prior employment. With this appointment, there was also developed a shared service agreement with RDAEP to deliver economic development projects agreed with a joint workplan arrangement. These new and unique arrangements will help local government have a strong interest in economic development and also make economic savings for both organisations.

  • The ISA Discussion Paper (DP) Identifies The
    The ISA Discussion Paper (DP) identifies the following four projects within the Eyre & Western Region as priorities ‐• 6‐Star $500m International Holiday Resort • Competitive Export Pathways for Primary Industries • Super School in Whyalla Education & Training Precinct • Energy Transmission and Generation on EP. This information is sourced (acknowledged) from the RDSA Infrastructure Priorities Report. The priorities require updating to reflect changes since the report was published and the report, within the context of this region and ISA’s objectives, requires a broader perspective. For instance RDAWEP has successfully supported and advocated for; the $100m Super School (due for completion in 2021) and has broadened the agenda to advocate for an integrated Education and Innovation Precinct (EIP) an $280m upgrade of the energy transmission network (Electranet due to commence construction in 2020) and is progressing various energy generation projects across the region – however the planned transmission upgrade will be at maximum capacity when completed and therefore requires greater capacity than is planned Competitive Export Pathways for Primary Industries which is a catch‐all for the ports of Thevenard, Port Lincoln, Lucky Bay, Whyalla, approved port at Cape Hardy together with bulk handling, storage and transport network efficiencies, including road & rail, for agriculture, mining and processing – this catch‐all represents many projects that drives efficiency, enhances global competitiveness and collectively exceeds $1bn, ranging from maintenance and enhancement of existing assets (i.e. dredging Thevenard) to building new Infrastructure (i.e. Cape Hardy Port and connection to national rail grid) Early high level master planning, identification of key stakeholders, location & land acquisition and potential partners for a multi experience International Resort.
