We have been involved in developing, and fully support, the New South Wales Mineral Council’s (NSWMC) submission. Our submission includes a formal response to the Initial Report released by the government in December 2018 as well as further issues for consideration as part of the Panel’s final report due to be released in August 2019. The Initial Report is a beneficial addition to the growing knowledge base about mining and water resources in the region. Importantly, the Initial Report highlights the significant progress that has been made, and continues to be made by industry, to improve the understanding and management of mining in the catchment. Peabody is acutely aware of the sensitive environment in which we operate, we take our environmental responsibilities seriously and operate under a well-established and strict regulatory framework, which includes stringent performance criteria and comprehensive monitoring requirements. We have ten years of operating data under the current Project Approval – subject to rigorous internal and external review – which demonstrates that our narrower longwalls and depth of operation at the Metropolitan Colliery have not resulted in connective cracking between the surface and the mine.
