PAGE ii SINCLAIR KNIGHT MERZ © Rio Tinto 2008 Cape Lambert Port B Development Executive Summary Introduction This Public Environmental Review and draft Public Environment Report (PER) assesses the environmental impacts of a proposed iron ore handling, processing and ship loading facility at Cape Lambert (the Cape Lambert Port B development), located near Wickham and Point Samson in the Pilbara region of Western Australia. The Proponent for the Cape Lambert Port B development is Pilbara Iron Pty Limited, a management arm for the Rio Tinto Iron Ore product group (Rio Tinto). The Proposal is subject to a co-ordinated parallel environmental assessment process which requires assessment by both the Western Australian and Commonwealth governments in accordance with the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (WA) (EP Act), the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cwth) (EPBC Act) and the Environment Protection (Sea Dumping) Act 1981 (Cwth). The PER has been prepared to fulfil the requirements of the approved Environmental Scoping Document and Guidelines by the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) and the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts (DEWHA). The Proposal The existing Cape Lambert operation (Port A) has recently been upgraded, increasing the Port A approved capacity from 55 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) to 85 Mtpa. With the global demand for iron ore predicted to continue in the long term, a second port facility with a throughput capacity up to 130 Mtpa is proposed to be developed at Cape Lambert. In combination with Port A, the Port B development will increase the Cape Lambert throughput capacity to nominally 215 Mtpa. The Port B development is effectively a green-field development located within an area associated with Port A. Development of a second port facility at Cape Lambert encompasses both onshore and marine works (Figure ES-1-1) and includes: ore handling facilities (incorporating rail tracks, car dumpers, conveyors, stackers, stockpiles, reclaimers and screenhouses) supporting operational infrastructure (including offices, warehouses and workshops) marine facilities (incorporating jetty and wharf, and shiploaders) dredging for berth pockets, turning basins, departure channel, service wharf and tug harbour supporting construction infrastructure (including laydown and storage areas). SINCLAIR KNIGHT MERZ PAGE iii © Rio Tinto 2008 Cape Lambert Port B Development Figure ES-1-1 Indicative location and key components of the Port B development PAGE iv SINCLAIR KNIGHT MERZ © Rio Tinto 2008 Cape Lambert Port B Development The key project characteristics for the Port B development are provided in Table ES-1-1. Table ES-1-1 Preliminary key project characteristics Project Characteristic Cape Lambert Port B Development * Nominal Cape Lambert Port B Up to 130 Mtpa capacity Access jetty and wharf Up to 2700 m (from conveyor junction on land to end of wharf) Number of ship loading berths Up to 4 Dredging Dredging for berth pockets, turning basins, departure channel, Service Wharf B and tug harbour extension. Placement of spoil at existing spoil grounds. Estimated dredge volume up to 16 Mm3. Stockyard Stockpiles to accommodate nominal 130 Mtpa throughput Bulk stockpile capacity No separate or dedicated bulking stockyards Facility footprint Approximately 340 ha land based Major plant components 3 car dumpers 2 screenhouses (lump rescreening plants) 2 sample systems 3–4 stackers 3 reclaimers 2 ship loaders Conveyors and transfer stations *Characteristics refer to the Port B development only and do not include Port A operations Community Consultation The Proponent has engaged in a public consultation process since 2007 for the Port B development. This consultation is ongoing and will continue with regard to this current proposal. Key issues raised through the consultation program for the Port B development were: identification and assessment of the environmental impacts from dredging and dredge spoil disposal activities impacts and management measures for nesting turtles risks to marine mammals water supply and use over life of project dust management workforce strategy. Environmental Impacts and Management The Proponent identified marine biodiversity, terrestrial fauna, water resources, air quality (particulate dust), ambient noise as key factors relevant to the assessment of the Port B proposal.

  • A Review of Archaeology and Rock Art in the Dampier Archipelago
    A review of archaeology and rock art in the Dampier Archipelago A report prepared for the National Trust of Australia (WA) Caroline Bird and Sylvia J. Hallam September 2006 Final draft Forward As this thoughtful and readable survey makes clear, the Burrup Peninsula and adjacent islands merit consideration as an integrated cultural landscape. Instead, the Western Australian government is sacrificing it to proclaimed industrial necessity that could have been located in a less destructive area. Before being systematically recorded, this ancient art province is divided in piecemeal fashion. Consequently, sites that are not destroyed by development become forlorn islands in an industrial complex. Twenty-five years ago the Australian Heritage Commission already had noted the region’s potential for World Heritage nomination. Today, State and corporate authorities lobby to prevent its listing even as a National Heritage place! This is shameful treatment for an area containing perhaps the densest concentration of engraved motifs in the world. The fact that even today individual motifs are estimated vaguely to number between 500,000 and one million reflects the scandalous government failure to sponsor an exhaustive survey before planned industrial expansion. It is best described as officially sanctioned cultural vandalism, impacting upon both Indigenous values and an irreplaceable heritage for all Australians. Instead of assigning conservation priorities, since 1980 more than 1800 massive engraved rocks have been wrenched from their context and sited close to a fertilizer plant. The massive gas complex, its expansion approved, sits less than a kilometre from a unique, deeply weathered engraved panel, certainly one of Australia’s most significant ancient art survivors.

  • The Natural History and Cultural Heritage of the Karratha District
    The Natural History and Cultural Heritage of the Karratha District Aboriginal Culture and Heritage Archaeological dating suggests that Aboriginal people have inhabited the Pilbara region for the past 40,000 years. Discoveries in other parts of Australia suggest they arrived on the continent sometime between 45,000 and 60,000 years ago. By the time Europeans settled in Australia, the whole of the continent had been occupied, from the deserts to the high mountains, with people speaking several hundred languages and associated with tribal territories. The evidence of their past lives and activities are present throughout the landscape and comprise a significant cultural heritage asset. Aboriginal culture and land tenure are inextricably interwoven with the creation period known as ‘the Dreaming’. According to Aboriginal belief, mythic beings traversed the country performing heroic deeds, creating physical features, plants and Pansy Hicks on Ngarluma Ngurra Photo by Sharmila Wood 2013 animals, and providing a moral basis for Aboriginal alliances. Ties of marriage influence associations social institutions. Many parts of the landscape between different tribal groups, with some members remain as testament to these ancestral beings spending extended periods outside their own territory, whose spiritual essence resides in places and particularly when going to their spouse’s homeland. objects fundamental to the continued well being and order of the social and natural world. This is the basis of the close and enduring relationship Effects of European Settlement existing between Aboriginal people and their With the rapid development of the pastoral industry traditional lands, forming the focus and control in the 1860s, coastal tribes of the Pilbara suffered of all aspects of Aboriginal life.
