    Appendix 1 – Project Changes to the New Acland Coal Mine Stage 3

    22nd November 2011 Prof David Shearman Secretary, Doctors for the Environment Australia Dear Professor Shearman I am writing to ask if you could please bring the health experience and expertise of your organisation to help us with a matter of extreme concern to our community. It is regarding the proposed Stage 3 expansion of New Hope Corporation (NHC) open cut coal mine, a Project of State Significance currently under consideration by the Queensland Coordinator General, Mr Keith Davies. The Oakey Coal Action Alliance is greatly concerned about this large mine due to existing and future health and social impacts on nearby residents. Residents of Acland, Jondaryan and Muldu are already experiencing intolerable living conditions and impaired health which will worsen considerably with approval of the expansion, doubling output from 4.8 million tonnes per annum to nearly 10 million tonnes per annum of coal. Summary of the project Acland is a small town 14 km north of Oakey, and is part of the Walloon coal measure. It previous population was between 200-400 people. There were a number of small underground collieries in the district including the Acland No 2 Colliery, a unique complex on the QLD Heritage Register. It ran from 1911-1984 and as a museum thereafter. Acland had a proud history of Tidy Town participation including judged QLD first Tidiest Town in 1990, due largely to the community parks and gardens established by Mrs Thelma Beutel. Acland is located in good quality agricultural land which supported 5 generations of farming families. 1999 New Hope (a subsidiary of Soul Pattison Group) purchased coal tenements from Shell.
