A ‘best practice’ approach requires plans and procedures for situations where equipment or facility failure could result in a spill or emergency discharge. A specific response guide has been developed for unforeseen emergency discharges from critical elements in the water management system and related infrastructure. The focus is on risk scenarios using the likelihood or potential to cause significant impacts on MNES. This document presents the QGC Upstream Gas Field - Unforeseen Emergency Discharge Plan (UEDP) for the QCLNG project. The plan has been prepared to fulfil Commitment 36 of the Stage 2 CSG WMMP for compliance with the requirements of EPBC approval 53B c (formerly conditions 49h (I) and (II)) and 53B e (i) (III) (formerly Condition 52d (I) (IV)) of federal approval EPBC 2008/4398 to develop a Stage 3 CSG WMMP. 16.1.1 PLAN FRAMEWORK AND CONTEXT The UEDP has been designed as an overarching plan and Emergency Response Guideline (ERG) that links directly with existing QGC incident management and emergency response plans developed under QGC’s Environmental Management System (EMS) in accordance with the international standard AS/NZS ISO 14001. The plan is a specific response guide developed for handling unforeseen emergency discharges from critical elements of QGC’s water management system and related infrastructure. The plan is focused on scenarios that are ranked in accordance with or potential to cause significant or long-term impacts or harm to a Matter of National Environmental Significance (MNES) and events or situations that results in an abnormal state and require an immediate response in order to contain, minimise and/or to prevent – serious environmental harm as defined in Queensland's Environmental Protection Act 1994. 277 The primary risk scenarios specifically identified in this Plan include: • Loss of containment or discharges from CSG water storages and aggregation ponds; • Loss of containment or discharges from brine storages and aggregation ponds; • Uncontaminated discharge of CSG water, brine or treatment chemicals from water treatment facilities; and • Serious rupture or damage to CSG water or brine trunklines. This Plan complies with the relevant HSSE Management System standards and procedures as listed in the table of references (Section 16.1.2) and has been developed to complement all existing and future management plans and procedures for responding to environmental incidents including QGC’s site-based emergency management procedures, dam safety emergency response plans and individual pond operating plans for individual CSG regulated storages and water treatment plant (WTP) operations management plans. Emergency preparedness and response at QGC is not described in one document. There are several layers of emergency management at QGC and a range of standards, plans, procedures and guides prepared for the various organisational and system levels. An overview of emergency management at QGC is provided in Figure 16-1. This UEDP shall function as an Emergency Response Guide (ERG) for the purpose of QGC’s management structure and should be read and implemented in conjunction with the QGC Environmental Emergency Incident Response and Reporting Procedure (QCOPS-OPS-ENV-PCE-000012) and any relevant site-based emergency response procedure in place for a particular site or asset type. 16.1.2 REFERENCE DOCUMENTS This list of reference documents to the UEDP presented here should be read in conjunction with this Stage 3 WMMP: • Emergency Management Standard: QCQGC-BX00-HSS-STD-000011 (QGC, 2012); • Incident Management Plan: QCQGC-BX00-HSS-PLN-000002 (QGC, 2012); • Procedure for Environmental Emergency Incident Management: QCOPS-OPS-ENV-PCE-000014 (QGC, 2012); • Environmental Emergency Incident Response and Reporting Procedure: QCOPS-OPS-ENV-PCE-000012 (QGC, 2012); and • Site Emergency Response Procedure – Kenya: QCOPS-BX55-HSS-PCE-000001-4 (QGC, 2013). 278 BG Internal Incident Reporting Crisis Safety Case Environment Control and Investigation Management BG Standards are BG-ST-HSSE-AI- BG-ST-HSSE- Framework BG-ST-HSSE- BGA-HSSE-GEN- documents developed by 001 ENV-001 (Standards) EFF-001 ST-0900 BG Group Governance Committee .

Figure 16-1 – QGC's environmental emergency management structure 279 16.1.3 EXCLUSIONS AND RELATIONSHIP WITH EXTERNAL PROJECTS The UEDP has been developed to incorporate QGC’s QCLNG upstream gas field CSG water management activities. In accordance with the Department variation to project conditions dated 2 November 2012 EPBC 2008/4398 QCLNG Gasfield, this plan does not incorporate elements relevant to treated CSG water provided to SunWater under the Glebe Weir or Chinchilla Weir Pipeline Projects. 60A: The proponent must treat all coal seam gas water as required under this approval before the coal seam gas water associated with the approved action enters the following pipelines: • The Kenya to Chinchilla Pipeline referred to the Department (EPC 2011/6000); and • The Woleebee Creek to Glebe Weir pipeline (EPBC 2011/6181). Once the CSG water has been treated as required under this approval and has entered the pipelines specified above, conditions 43-60 will no longer apply to that water. QGC is actively engaged with SunWater through relevant water service agreements for the projects and to develop and implement resource management and monitoring plans and operating protocols to ensure compliance with project conditions and sustainable beneficial use. While the Kenya to Chinchilla Weir and Woleebee Creek to Glebe Weir pipelines are not included in this plan, QGC has amended the Kenya Site Emergency Response Procedure (ERP) (QCOPS-BX55-HSS-PCE-000001-4) and QGC Incident Reporting Investigation Procedure (QCQGC-BX00-HSS-PCE-000017) to ensure notifications and response actions are in place to appropriately manage risks associated with augmentation of town water supplies for the Kenya to Chinchilla Pipeline Project, including relevant notification procedures. 16.2 ENVIRONMENTAL VALUES PROTECTION OBJECTIVES QGC has identified the following objectives for protecting environmental values in relation to CSG water management: • The extraction and treatment of CSG water is not causing adverse impacts to the surrounding environment, including site specific environmental values; • Treated water for beneficial reuse is meeting specified water quality criteria tailored for the intended reuse application and to avoid any adverse environmental impacts; • Avoid the potential for accidental spills and leaks of brine ponds and saline waste; • Avoid surface water contamination of nearby waterways; • Protect the groundwater quality in the vicinity of the WTP and storage ponds by minimising the potential for seepage of

  • Queensland's Coal Seam Gas Development and the Engagement with Knowledge, Uncertainty and Environmental Risks
    Getting the Science Right: Queensland's Coal Seam Gas Development and the Engagement with Knowledge, Uncertainty and Environmental Risks Martin Espig Master of Arts (Hons) (Sociology & Anthropology) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2017 School of Social Science Abstract Along with the current global ‘gas revolution’, Australia’s natural gas industry grew rapidly over the last decade. As part of this growth, unconventional gas reserves in the coal basins underlying the State of Queensland have been developed at a large scale. These coal seam gas (CSG) projects are expected to involve the drilling of up to 20,000 gas wells in southern Queensland alone. On a small — but likely increasing — number of the existing 9,000 wells, CSG companies apply the controversial extraction technique of hydraulic fracturing (‘fracking’). One hotspot of development is the rural Western Downs region where the CSG industry’s rapid expansion and accompanying socio-cultural changes have intensified land use competition between agricultural and extractive industries, while also affecting non-agricultural landholders and regional residents. In this region and elsewhere, CSG extraction has sparked debates over associated risks, uncertainties and possible unknown environmental impacts. Based on ethnographic research in the Western Downs, this thesis addresses the resulting environmental risk controversy by examining the ‘problems of knowing’ associated with CSG developments. My analysis focuses on how a variety of actors come to know CSG and its environmental risks as well as the ways in which uncertainties and unknowns are negotiated. I particularly attend to scientific knowledge claims regarding potential environmental and health impacts.

  • 2021 Land Valuations Overview Western Downs
    Land valuations overview: Western Downs Regional Council On 31 March 2021, the Valuer-General released land valuations for 17,760 properties with a total value of $4,403,967,344 in the Western Downs Regional Council area. The valuations reflect land values at 1 October 2020 and show that Western Downs region has increased by 21.6 per cent overall since the last valuation in 2019. Rural land values have generally increased moderately, except for around Wandoan where there have been significant increases, due to the strength in beef commodity prices as well as a low interest rate environment. Residential land values in the townships of Dalby and Miles have generally remained unchanged, with moderate increases in Chinchilla, and moderate reductions within the towns of Tara and Wandoan. Commercial and industrial lands generally remain unchanged, except for some isolated changes along the Warrego Highway in Dalby.

  • Wambo Shire Handbook
    WAMBO SHIRE HANDBOOK An Inventory of the Agricultural Resources and Production of Wambo Shire, Queensland Compiled by: W. Bott, District- Adviser, Dalby Edited by: P. L. Lloyd, Extension Officer, Brisbane Published by: Queensland Department of Primary Industries September 1976 FOREWORD The Shire Handbook was conceived in the mid-1960s. A limited number of a series was printed for use by officers of the Department of Primary Industries to assist them in their planning of research and extension programmes. The Handbooks created wide interest and, in response to public demand, it was decided to publish progressively a new updated series. This volume is one of the new series. Shire Handbooks review, in some detail, the environmental and natural resources which affect farm production and people in the particular Shire. Climate, geology, topography, water resources, soils and vegetation are described. Farming systems are discussed, animal and crop production reviewed and'yields and turnoff quantified. The economics of component industries are studied. The text is supported liberally by maps and statistical tables. Shire Handbooks provide important reference material for all concerned with rural industries and rural Queensland. * They serve as a guide to farmers and graziers, bankers, stock and station agents and those in agricultural business. * Provide essential information for regional planners, developers and environmental impact students. * Are a very useful reference for teachers at all levels of education and deserve a place in most libraries. I commend this series to students of agriculture and all whose business is associated with the land and rural people. (V.B. Sullivan) Minister for Primary Industries ii CONTENTS Page 1.

  • Referral of Proposed Action Form
    Referral of proposed action Warrego Highway Upgrade Program Project title: Dalby to Miles Overtaking Lanes 1 Summary of proposed action 1.1 Short description The overall Project is Warrego Highway Upgrade Program (WHUP, 2012) Warrego Highway Safety Package. The project objective is to improve the efficiency and safety of vehicles along the Warrego Highway between Oakey and Miles, Queensland. Part of this project is to construct eastbound and westbound overtaking lanes on a 2.3 km section of Warrego Highway, approximately 21 km north west of Chinchilla (Figure 1). To construct these overtaking lanes, an adequate safety zone (10.5m both sides of carriageway) must be established in order to provide as safe driving environment along this section of Warrego Highway where the maximum speed limit is 110 kph. The vegetation that requires removal is dominated by Brigalow (Acacia harpophylla). The south- eastern side contains endangered brigalow (Acacia harpophylla) threatened ecological community (TEC). An area 0.30 ha of this TEC needs to be removed to construct the proposed overtaking lanes. Figure 1.
