  • Galilee Basin Housing Market Analysis
    Appendices | RP Data Galilee Basin Housing Market Analysis Galilee Basin Housing market analysis Prepared for Waratah Coal Considering the increased requirement for housing related to the proposed construction and operation of the Galilee Coal Project (Northern Export Facility) and associated railway and facilities, Waratah Coal have approached RP Data to provide an analysis of local housing market conditions and assess how the proposed influx of workers may impact on those conditions. Specifically this research has focussed on assessing and measuring housing market conditions and the extent of housing supply across relevant townships that are likely to be impacted by the proposed project. These townships include Alpha and Jericho which are the closest established residential areas to the proposed mine. Additionally the study has included the closest major service centre which is the town of Emerald, located about a 170km drive east of Alpha. The townships of Collinsville and Bowen have also been included in the study due to their proximity to the proposed loading facilities at Abbot Point. The analysis also provides a separate focus on two established communities outside of the Galilee Basin. The communities of Moranbah and greater Gladstone provide an interesting and important reference point about how commodity driven housing markets can be affected by surging labour demand.

  • Hansard 29 October 2003
    29 Oct 2003 Legislative Assembly 4451 WEDNESDAY, 29 OCTOBER 2003 Mr SPEAKER (Hon. R. K. Hollis, Redcliffe) read prayers and took the chair at 9.30 a.m. PRIVILEGE Government Advertising; Auditor-General Hon. P. D. BEATTIE (Brisbane Central—ALP) (Premier and Minister for Trade) (9.31 a.m.): I rise on a matter of privilege. I refer to an article which appeared in today's Courier-Mail headed 'Government ads under scrutiny as election looms'. I wrote to the Auditor-General on 21 October in these terms— ... I advise that my Government will be advertising information in relation to the TAB merger, a new hearing service for newborn babies, and seeking to attract investment in tourism in conjunction with the Rugby World Cup. There may be additional advertising, still according to these guidelines. There is no way that my Government is going to miss the opportunity to encourage international and interstate Rugby World Cup visitors to enjoy our tourist facilities or to invest in Queensland. I also wrote to the Auditor-General this morning about the article in today's Courier-Mail because I am concerned that the position taken here, on the advice of the Leader of the Opposition, could politicise the role of the Auditor-General. That is a very serious issue. I seek leave to have incorporated in Hansard the letter I have written to the Auditor-General of 21 October and the letter I have written to the Auditor-General today. I also seek leave to have incorporated in Hansard a statement I put out which draws to the attention of the Auditor-General a matter that is still unresolved—that is, in June 1999, based on the 1998 election, the Australian Broadcasting Authority found that the government advertising for the then Borbidge government, of which the Leader of the Opposition was a minister, engaged in political advertising.

  • Outback & Sapphire Gemfields Loop
    OUTBACK & SAPPHIRE GEMFIELDS LOOP Explore the road less travelled and enjoy a detour full of surprises. The stretch of highway between Rockhampton and Mackay is known as being a little less than exciting and a trend is starting to emerge among travellers to partake in an exciting detour to get a taste of the outback via the Sapphire Gemfields (just west of Rockhampton) before heading north to Mackay. Distance: Suitable for: Duration: 795km detour All vehicles 1-4 Nights HIGHLIGHTS • Fossick for Sapphires • Outback Towns • Bushwalking • Swimming Holes • Aboriginal History • National Parks • Fishing Rockhampton > Blackdown Tableland National Park (201 km) From Rockhampton, follow the Capricorn Highway west towards Emerald. This drive boasts stunning scenery and easy access to Blackdown Tableland National Park. Located just outside of Blackwater, Blackdown Tableland is a popular overnight destination for campervans and tents. The National Park has stunning bushwalks, swimming holes, and aboriginal artwork. The road in to the national park is not recommended for Caravans.

  • QMEA Newsletter July 2013
    QMEA Newsletter July 2013 Teachers hone their skills Almost one hundred and fifty teachers have participated in a range of professional development (PD) activities this semester, including 10 teachers who participated in the BMA- sponsored QMEA Rock Tour. Participants described the recent three day workshop as ‘the best PD ever – it rocked!’ The tour included laboratory activities at Moranbah State High School with BMA Geologists Brendan Mapham and McLean Watson, and underground and open-cut site experiences at BMA’s Broadmeadow and Goonyella Riverside mines. Teachers were exposed to basic Earth Science principles and their application in planning mining operations, and engaged with a number of site geologists to learn more about the mining process, including new long wall mining techniques. Following time onsite in the Moranbah region, teachers headed to the Gemfields near Emerald where Miners Heritage staff explained the sapphire mining process and participants were provided an opportunity to apply their knowledge to explain the depositional environment of local deposits. Thanks must go to BMA Head Office and Site staff for enabling this opportunity. Thanks also to staff at Miners Heritage for their assistance. In addition, 35 teachers from across the QMEA have taken the opportunity to be involved in Teacher Earth Science Education Program webinars and workshops this term to increase their understanding of geology and rock types. www.qmea.org.au Page 1 Xstrata MINE Challenge Twenty-one QMEA students are a step closer to a Made it now with engineering career in engineering following their participation in the 2013 Xstrata MINE Challenge in Mt Isa during June.
