The Goldfields Environmental Management Group (GEMG) is a technical and professional body of people working to achieve environmental excellence. Most of our members predominantly work within the mining industry of the Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia, which includes employees of mining and exploration companies, environmental consultancy and service organisations and government agencies. The GEMG was formed in 1988 by a small number of individuals involved in land rehabilitation in the Eastern Goldfields region of Western Australia.

The GEMG provides a source of information on environmental management practices with a focus on the mining industry; exploring issues such as community & external stakeholders, ecology (flora & vegetation, fauna, stygofauna etc.), environmental education & communication, environmental management systems, legislation, regulatory approvals & processes, materials characterisation, mine closure, rehabilitation, waste management, recycling, water management.

Every two years the GEMG facilitates a conference on Environmental Management held in Kalgoorlie- Boulder, Western Australia. The first workshop was held in 1988 and is now regarded as the premier environmental event to attend. This event offers great value for money and provides an excellent networking opportunity for environmental professionals from all over Western Australia (and beyond) and is attended by approximately 300 delegates.

At the Goldfields Environmental Management Group (GEMG) workshop in 2014, there were discussions around opportunities to improve upon existing waste management practices in the Region with many organisations, represented by GEMG members, committed to enhancing their social licence to operate. GEMG recognise the issues the Region faces and, as such, has a strong desire to assist in the advancement of Region’s waste management systems. Out of these discussions, the idea for undertaking a Waste Data and Priorities Study in the Goldfields Region was born.

This Study aims to support and build upon existing work undertaken in the Region on the matter. Specifically, the Study was undertaken to collect and publish data to achieve the following key objectives:

1. Support regional policy development; 2. Assist waste services and infrastructure planning; 3. Understanding regional waste management priorities; and 4. Guide investment.

In order to achieve these objectives, stakeholders across the region were invited to provide their waste data to obtain a comprehensive picture of current waste management systems and practices within the Study Area for the key waste streams. In addition to the data request, respondents were asked to provide their views on what they believe to be the key waste management priorities in the Region.

Methodology

In order to gather the waste data in a consistent manner from all respondents, a three level Waste Classification System (WCS) was utilised. The WCS was similar to that developed for the Pilbara and Broome Waste Data Study in 2012. The WCS aligns with the Department of Environment Regulation’s (DER) Controlled Waste Category list, which was revised in 2014. The WCS classifies waste materials according to the following three levels:

 Stream: the three traditional waste streams of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), Commercial and Industrial (C&I) and Construction and Demolition (C&D);  Sector: the sector of the economy from which the waste was generated (e.g. domestic; mining); and  Material Type: describing the composition of the waste (e.g. kerbside refuse).

To guide the analysis and presentation of the data, six Sub-catchment Areas were formed reflecting the key generation, treatment locations and waste flows within the Study Area (Figure 1). The Sub- catchment Areas are:

 Greater Wiluna Sub-catchment Area (including Wiluna townsite);  Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (including Leonora and Laverton townsites);  Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (including Menzies to Norseman and towns in between);  Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area;  Esperance Sub-catchment Area (including Esperance townsite); and  Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment Area (including Ravensthorpe and Hopetoun townsites).

Waste Treatment

A breakdown of the treatment of waste generated within the Study Area is shown in Figure E2. The most commonly used treatment method for waste in the Study Area was landfill disposal with 61.7% disposed of to public landfills and 17.9% disposed of to on-site landfills. 15.4% of waste was recycled.

Some waste materials were exported from one Sub-catchment Area to another for treatment. In addition, 36,499 tonnes of waste was exported outside of the Study Area for treatment, predominantly to Perth or interstate.

Projections

Population growth rates combined with per capita waste generation rates are utilised for the waste projections. As with the Pilbara and Broome Waste Data Study, it is considered that population provides the most reliable indicator for growth in waste generation across all three waste streams despite its acknowledged limitations as an indicator for C&I and C&D wastes. Population growth also results in increases in construction activity, producing C&D waste, and new operating facilities producing C&I waste.

As a consequence, waste generation up to 2035 was projected using published population growth scenarios along with current per capita waste generation rates for each of the three waste streams. TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c The Study adopted three growth scenarios (high, medium and low) for each Sub-catchment Area and June 2016 | Page 16 the Study Area overall in order to consider varying levels of future population growth and associated waste generation. The primary sources of population data were the Australian Bureau of Statistics and Western Australian Planning Commission’s (WAPC) WA Tomorrow. The following three population growth scenarios, based on current per capita waste generation rates, are:

 High growth rate –WAPC, WA Tomorrow 2026 (Band E)  Medium growth rate – GEDC Regional Investment Blueprint (aspirational)  Low growth rate – GEDC Blueprint (historical)

The following graph (Figure E3), shows the projections of waste generation in the Study Area to 2035.

The use of past trends to predict future population and economic activity can be unreliable due to impacts of individual projects. Given its geographical isolation, relatively small and dispersed population and typically large-scale resource development projects, population is considered to be strongly influenced by growth in the resources sector. Within the Study Area, a significant proportion of the population is involved directly, or indirectly, in the resources industry.

Waste Data Findings

 256,945 tonnes of waste generated in Study Area in 2014/15;  Across the Study Area, nearly two thirds (63%) of waste was generated from the C&I stream, 27% originated in the MSW stream and the remaining 10% was generated from the C&D stream.

Month YYYYThe Study Area achieved an overall diversion from landfill rate of 20.4% across all waste streams.  There was an estimated 36,499 tonnes of waste exported from the Study Area for treatment. However, the actual quantities of waste exported are likely to be higher as waste that was recorded as being recycled in the Study Area (predominantly in Kalgoorlie-Boulder) would be subsequently sent outside of the Study Area for export to international markets.

 Figure E5 sets out the waste treatment methods breakdown by Sub-catchment Area. This illustrates the variation between Sub-catchment Areas, with the southern Sub-catchment Areas of Esperance and Ravensthorpe relying predominantly on public landfill for waste disposal with 86% and 66% respectively. The Greater Wiluna and Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Areas have little to no reliance on public landfills with private on-site landfills for waste disposal being the predominant waste treatment method.  The Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area is unique to the Study Area in that waste generators utilise both public and on-site landfills for waste treatment with 79% and 7% TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1crespectively. June 2016 | Page 16  Overall, the Study Area has a high reliance on landfills, both public and on-site, for waste treatment accounting for 77% of all waste generated.

Key waste management priorities

In addition to requesting waste data, stakeholders were also invited to provide their views on what they believed to be the key waste management priorities in the Study Area. As part of this process, respondents were asked to provide their views on:

 Peak waste streams;  Problematic waste;  Waste management infrastructure gaps and opportunities; and  Market gaps and opportunities.

Problematic wastes were identified by both Local Government Authorities and Waste Generator respondents (Table E6). Waste Generators highlighted a number of similar problematic wastes like tyres and packaging materials, along with industry-specific wastes such as contaminated soils.

Table E6: Problematic waste identified by Local Government Authorities and Waste Generator respondents Local Government Waste Generators  Tyres  Tyres  Glass  Glass  Light gauge steel  Miscellaneous hazardous materials (e.g. waste  Household hazardous waste chemicals)  Litter/ illegal dumping (non-specific waste  Used Intermediate Bulk Containers materials)  Polypipe  Mattresses  Used cars  Chemical plastic (20L containers)  Waste oil  Wood including pallets  Hydrocarbon contaminated soil  Hydrocarbon drums (44 gallon)  Rubber C&D waste (e.g. piping, old building materials)  Aerosol cans TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c  Class I, III & IV waste June 2016 | Page 16  Cardboard

Lastly, respondents were asked to provide their views on waste infrastructure and market gaps in the Study Area as well as their proposed solutions. A key message communicated from numerous respondents was that there are limited waste management services in the Region to treat problematic waste in a cost effective manner.

The following waste infrastructure and market gaps were identified by Study respondents:

 Local industrial waste and recycling management facilities;  Hydrocarbon contaminated soil collection and processing service;  Lack of market for recyclables;  Household waste recycling in the Northern Goldfields;  A lack of appropriate household hazardous waste management;

Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group

Month YYYY

Goldfields Regional Waste Data collaboration and Priorities Study for waste management infrastructure; Goldfields Environmental Management Group  Organic waste processing facility in Central Goldfields; and Month YYYYAlternative waste treatment (AWT).

Talis undertook a review of the key waste management priorities identified by respondents and proposes a variety of potential solutions that would warrant further detailed consideration including a Regional or joint approach to waste management. These potential solutions include:

 Amalgamation and commitment of waste tonnages;  Regional or joint tendering of waste management services; and  Further reporting of waste tonnages and priorities to the waste sector.

Discussion

 There is a high reliance on landfill across the Study Area for the treatment of waste generated. There are a number of reasons for this including both regional and local factors. Currently, there is no landfill levy within regional Western Australia, which financially penalises the use of landfills to drive the diversion of material from landfills.  There are 50 landfills located in the Study Area, this includes 30 licensed landfills and 20 registered landfills. There is significant variation in the utilisation of public and on-site landfills across the Study Area with 38 on-site landfills and 12 public landfills.  A total of 14%, or 36,499 tonnes, of waste generated is exported out of the Study Area for treatment. Most of this waste is exported to Perth with a small proportion also being transported interstate for treatment.  The potential development of numerous uranium mining operations in the Study Area presents both challenges and opportunities. There may be opportunities for the region to use the introduction of this new resource industry as a means for advancing waste management systems and infrastructure for the betterment of the region as a whole.  Under a high growth scenario, waste generation over the whole Study Area may increase to over 340,000 tonnes per annum by 2035. Under the low growth scenario, it may increase to around 307,000 tonnes per annum by 2035.  Total per capita waste generation across the Study Area is 4.17 tonnes, which exceeds the State average of 2.6 tonnes per capita.  C&I stream was the best performing stream in the Study Area reaching a 26% landfill diversion rate against a 2015 target of 55% (for C&I) and 70% by 2020.  The overall MSW landfill diversion rate was 12% (against a 2015 Waste Strategy target of 30%). TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c June 2016 | Page 16 Recommendations

Talis recognises that this Study is a very important step in the regional collaboration on waste management initiatives within the Region through all sectors of the waste industry working together to collect and publish data on waste generation, materials flows and treatment activities. This data will greatly assist all key decision makers across the waste sector, from generators, Local Governments and Private Waste Service Providers to make informed decisions on future waste planning exercises as well as, services and infrastructure investments.

Leveraging from this significant Study and its associated findings, Talis provides the following recommendations to GEMG and the wider waste sector stakeholders to further advance the waste management systems across the Region, set out in Table E7.

MonthRecommendations YYYY Responsibility  Local Governments continues to work collaboratively on waste management issues across the Region and look to establish a formal Regional Local Government Forum to progress regional waste management initiatives, potentially using an existing forum, such as Goldfields Voluntary Regional Organisation of Councils (GVROC). Specific initiatives may include: o Amalgamation of waste tonnages from multiple LGAs to provide Local Governments economies of scale with potential for regional or joint tendering for waste management services, such as mobile plant for Greenwaste processing, tyre recycling, inert material crushing; and o Knowledge sharing and further reporting on tonnages and priorities to the waste sector.  Waste Generators should look to establish a formal Regional forum to collaborate and progress regional waste management initiatives and priorities, which may include: o Commitment from multiple waste generators to amalgamate Waste Generators waste tonnages to provide economies of scale with potential for regional or joint tendering for waste management service; and o Knowledge sharing and further reporting on tonnages and priorities to the waste sector.  Both Groups should collaborate together on regional waste management issues and initiatives such as joint group meetings, data All and knowledge sharing.  Continued collation and sharing of waste generation and treatment All data across the region to facilitate the above initiatives.  All stakeholders should consider the adoption of a Waste Classification System to provide a framework for consistent data gathering and All reporting across the Region. As part of this process, consideration should be given to the Waste Classification System utilised in this Study.

Draft recommendations were presented at the GEMG Workshop in May 2016 and were subsequently revised as part of the consultation process.

Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group

Month YYYY

Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study 1Goldfields Introduction Environmental Management Group Month YYYY The Eastern Goldfields region covers an area of 950,995km2 in the south-eastern corner of Western Australia. It includes the entire Goldfields-Esperance Region along with the Shire of Wiluna, which is over one third of the area of Western Australia and larger than the state of New South Wales.

The region’s current economic profile is dominated by mining in the central and northern parts with agriculture, fisheries and aquaculture significant industries in the south. Tourism is also a growing industry across the region.

The Goldfields-Esperance region makes a significant contribution to the Western Australian economy with an estimated 4.2% of the State’s Gross Regional Product (GRP), almost 10% of the State’s mining sector ($9,058.3 million in 2012-13) and the second highest per capita contribution in the State with $163,367 per capita (Department of Regional Development, 2014).

Kalgoorlie-Boulder was identified as a major regional centre within the Western Australian Waste Strategy (Waste Strategy) prepared by the Waste Authority in 2012 and, more recently, the WA’s Regional Development Council identified Kalgoorlie-Boulder and Esperance as regional centres that are vital hubs for the State’s economy.

The Waste Strategy provides targets for diversion of materials from landfill across the three key waste streams being municipal solid waste (MSW), commercial and industrial (C&I) and construction and demolition (C&D). The Strategy aims for major regional centres, such as Kalgoorlie-Boulder, to reach targets of 30% for MSW by 2015 and 50% by 2020. In addition, there are State-wide targets for C&I waste of 55% by 2015 and 70% by 2020 and C&D waste 60% by 2015 and 75% by 2020.

Current consumption patterns, particularly within the developed world, are generating high volumes of materials which have traditionally been regarded as waste and disposed of to landfill. Landfilling waste results in a loss of materials and energy from the supply chain and putrescible landfills generate methane, a harmful greenhouse gas. In essence – traditional waste management practices are wasteful.

With an increasing global population and growing demand for resources, these traditional waste management practices are not sustainable. A fundamental change in current consumption patterns and waste management systems, as shown in Diagram 1-1, is required to ensure that our natural resources are preserved for future generations. As robust as our earth has been, the current level of TW15032 - Main consumptionReport Draft.1c and wasteful waste management practices cannot be sustained. The ‘do nothing’ June 2016 | Page 16 option is not an option.

Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group

Month YYYY

SomeGoldfields of theWaste Local Data G andovernments Priorities Study within the Eastern Goldfields have already collaborated on a regional StrategicGoldfields Environmental Waste Management Management Group Plan, which identified waste management issues and recommeMonth YYYYndations aimed to facilitate strategic waste management infrastructure planning. The Goldfields-Esperance 2013 Regional Plan identifies that:

“Effective waste management is growing in importance as a regional issue, given the commitment to sustainably manage both domestic and industrial waste. There is opportunity to increase the uptake of comprehensive waste management in the mining and processing sectors”.

At the Goldfields Environmental Management Group (GEMG) workshop in 2014, there were discussions around opportunities to improve upon existing waste management practices in the Region. GEMG members work within organisations committed to enhancing their social licence to operate. GEMG recognise the issues the Region faces and, as such, has a strong desire to assist in the advancement of waste management systems within the Region. Out of these discussions, the idea for undertaking a Waste Data and Priorities Study in the Goldfields Region was born.

This Study aims to support and build upon existing work undertaken in the region. Specifically, the Study was undertaken to collect and publish data to achieve the following key objectives:

1. Support regional policy development; 2. Assist waste services and infrastructure planning; 3. Understanding regional waste management priorities; and 4. Guide investment.

In order to achieve these objectives, stakeholders across the region were invited to provide their waste data to obtain a comprehensive picture of current waste management systems and practices within the Study Area for the key waste streams.

1.1 Scope

For the purposes of the Study, the Eastern Goldfields Region (the Study Area) refers to the coastal Shires of Ravensthorpe and Esperance in the south, the Shires of Dundas and Coolgardie, City of Kalgoorlie- Boulder, Shire Menzies in the central region and the Shires of Laverton, Leonora and Wiluna in the north (see map Figure 1).

The scope of this Study was to identify, capture and present data for the three key waste streams – MSW, C&I and C&D across the Study Area for the 2014/15 financial year. TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c June 2016 | Page 16 Future waste generation quantities for the Study Area have also been predicted, across three different growth scenarios, up until 2035 to provide an indication of the quantity of waste materials that may require management in the future.

To guide the analysis and presentation of the data, six Sub-catchment Areas were formed reflecting the key generation, treatment locations and waste flows within the Study Area. The Sub-catchment Areas are:

 Greater Wiluna Sub-catchment Area (including Wiluna townsite);  Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (including Leonora and Laverton townsites);  Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (including Menzies to Norseman and towns in between);  Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area;

Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group

Month YYYY 2Goldfields Project Waste Data Approachand Priorities Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group

TheMonth methodology YYYY utilised to undertake the Study involved the following tasks, which are discussed in greater detail in the sub-sections below:

 Revision and updating of the Waste Classification System;  Initial discussions with Regional stakeholders including State Government Departments and Industry Bodies;  Development and implementation of a stakeholder consultation strategy, including workshops in Kalgoorlie and Perth;  Data collection process;  Data entry and analysis;  Waste streams projections;  Review of regional waste management priorities; and  Reporting.

2.1 Waste Classification System

A Waste Classification System (WCS) was used to assist in the gathering and reporting of waste data for the Study. The WCS was originally developed for Pilbara and Broome Waste Study that Talis completed for the Waste Authority in 2012. The WCS was reviewed and updated for the Study to reflect the latest DER Controlled Waste categories, which were amended in 2014. The WCS was adopted to achieve the following objectives:

 Reflect existing waste management practices to allow mapping of waste management activities;  Achieve consistency both within the WCS and with standard industry terms and classifications;  Prioritise identification of waste by its source as well as its composition;  Identify the sector of the economy from which the waste is generated, to inform future analysis and policy development;  Cover ‘cradle to grave’ as much as possible;  Maintain relevance to waste generation within the whole of Western Australia;  Ensure the system is user-friendly; and  Minimise potential for double counting.

To achieve these objectives, each waste type is classified by the WCS using a three-part coding TW15032 - Main system,Report Draft.1c as follows: June 2016 | Page 16

 Waste Stream – the first part of the WCS identifies the source of the waste by stream, each with its own Waste Stream Code as follows, Code A – Municipal Solid Waste (MSW), Code B – Commercial & Industrial (C&I) and Code C – Construction & Demolition (C&D). Each of the waste streams are defined in Table 2-1.

TableGoldfields 2-1 Waste: Waste Data stream and Priorities definitions Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group Waste Definitions MonthStream YYYY Residential waste typically managed by Local Government including:  Kerbside or vergeside collections, or dropped off waste; MSW  Waste from public places including from road verges, reserves, beaches, litter bins, events and street cleaning; and  Incidental commercial waste collected via residential kerbside collections. Waste generated from, or as the direct result of, commercial and industrial C&I operations, and waste that is not MSW or C&D waste. Materials generated as a result of construction, refurbishment or demolition C&D activities.

 Sector – The source of the waste is further identified in the second part of the WCS by the Sector of the economy within which the waste was generated. 13 Sectors have been used, based on a similar concept to the Classification of Economic Activities within the European Commission’s waste database and also within the Australian Waste Database (Sub-stream 1 Secondary Source). The Sectors used were selected to reflect the activities within the Goldfields and to assist in clarifying the intent of the WCS. Examples of Sectors include ‘Domestic’, ‘Mining, Exploration, quarrying, physical and chemical treatment of Minerals’ and ‘Metals processing and thermal processes’. Each Sector was allocated a Code from 01 to 13.  Material Type – The third aspect of the coding system reflects composition of the waste. Each of the waste material types are allocated a Material Type code within the range of 100-899 and grouped into eight series. As far as reasonably possible, the material types adopted were developed in line with existing systems. For example, the 100 series of material types are all the wastes classified through the DER’s recently updated Controlled Waste Category List. Users of the WCS were encouraged to classify waste by single substance waste types as much as possible (where the data was available), but use mixed types where these materials are collected as a mixed stream. A key objective of the WCS was to accurately reflect waste management practices and, therefore, the system was designed not to necessitate the splitting of commingled waste streams.

The full Waste Classification System is contained within Appendix A.

2.2 Initial discussions with regional stakeholders

TW15032 - Main ThReporte project Draft.1c team held discussions and meetings with the following Government Departments and June 2016 | Page 16 agencies:

 Department of Environment Regulation (DER);  Waste Authority;  Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP); and  Goldfields-Esperance Development Commission.

In addition, the team met with key regional industry bodies, namely Chamber of Minerals and Energy of Western Australia and Kalgoorlie-Boulder Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

2.3 Development of Consultation Strategy

A Consultation Strategy was developed to set out a clear approach for how the project team would communicate with key stakeholders.

2.3.1Goldfields Identification Waste Data and Prioritiesof Stakeholders Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group The first task was to identify the key stakeholders within the Study Area. These included State Month YYYY Government Departments, Industry Bodies and Local Governments along with waste generators such as resource companies as well as Private Waste Service Providers. A database of all relevant contacts was developed and maintained for the duration of the Study to track all communication with them.

2.3.2 Data Collection Sheets

Three distinct Data Collection Sheets were developed to reflect the different roles of stakeholders in the waste management systems of the Study Area. Three groupings were identified - Local Government, Private Waste Service Providers plus Industry and Resources companies. Each of the Data Collection Sheets contained slight variations in the information requested. However, all three Data Collection Sheets included the following common elements:

 Respondent’s Details - This sheet requested basic contact information for the stakeholder, details on the waste facilities and, for Local Government, details regarding current population and predicted future population of the area of concern. Data on anticipated future growth was also requested to assist in projecting future waste streams in the Study Area.  Waste Register – The Waste Register requested details on the source, quantity, collection method, treatment and/or disposal method for each waste stream generated by the stakeholder.  Waste Facility Outputs – This sheet recorded the source, quantity and treatment and/or disposal method for each output (product and residue), where relevant, from waste management facilities operated by the stakeholder.  Priorities – This section invited stakeholders to highlight the waste management priorities that they consider to be important with a focus on peak and problematic waste and waste infrastructure and market gaps and opportunities.

Although stakeholders were encouraged to utilise the Data Collection Sheets where possible, Talis also accepted raw data from stakeholders. This data was then transcribed into the required data format for the data analysis stage by the project team. Copies of each of the Data Collection Sheets can be found in Appendix B.

2.4 Implementation of the Consultation Strategy

As part of the implementation of the Consultation Strategy, a number of key engagement activities TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c June 2016 | Page 16 were identified to be undertaken to optimise the number of participants for the Study. These activities are set out in Table 2-2 below.

AsGoldfields mentioned Waste above,Data and t woPriorities stak eholderStudy workshops were held in October 2015 in Kalgoorlie and Perth. TheGoldfields workshops Environmental had a goodManagement participation Group rate with positive feedback on the Study and its objectives. It wasMonth apparent YYYY that this approach was effective in gaining buy-in from the stakeholders who attended. 2.4.1 Data request communications

Following the workshops, Talis and GEMG circulated the Data Collection Sheets to all contacts inviting them to provide their waste data for the 2014/15 financial year. Circulation was undertaken via email. The documentation was also made available for download from the GEMG website. The Study was promoted by Talis, GEMG and supporting bodies, including the Waste Authority, via social media.

Additionally, the project team made follow-up phone calls and sent follow-up emails to prompt the return of data.

2.4.2 Follow up communications

Talis undertook follow-up telephone calls to key stakeholders to confirm their buy-in to the Study, which was generally seen to be an effective approach to increasing participation. Some stakeholders chose to provide general feedback to the Study over the telephone, which were captured in Data Collection Sheets by the project team. There were also a small number of stakeholders that declined to participate in the Study altogether due to lack of time, resource constraints or because they felt they did not have any relevant data to contribute to the Study. This was particularly relevant to a number of resource companies whose mines are currently under care and maintenance.

2.5 Data Analysis

2.5.1 Geographical Breakdown

Whilst it is acknowledged that the vast majority of waste exported from the Region is first sent to Kalgoorlie, in order to guide the analysis and presentation of the data, six Sub-catchment Areas were created to reflect the key waste generation locations within the Study Area. The development of the Sub-catchment Areas were based on the following criteria:

 Within the vicinity of Kalgoorlie and Coolgardie, a 150km radius buffer was applied.  For the other main town sites that were outside of the above Sub-catchment Area, namely Esperance, Ravensthorpe, Leonora and Laverton and Wiluna, a 100km radius buffer was applied. TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1cMajor projects or ‘clusters’ of mines that fell outside of these buffers were included in the closest June 2016 | Page 16 Sub-catchment Area if they were within 30km (i.e. a total of 130km as the crow flies from the town site).

The Tropicana Gold Mine did not fall within any Sub-catchment Areas using the above criteria. Given its remoteness and the potential for another major resource project to be developed in the area, it was allocated its own Sub-catchment Area.

In addition to identifying the key areas of waste generation, the amalgamation of information into these Sub-catchment Areas ensures anonymity of the waste data provided by participants of the Study.

Any areas outside of the Sub-catchment Areas within the Study Area have been excluded from the Study. This is because, for the purposes of the Study, these areas are considered to contribute

Certain industrial premises with potential to cause emissions and discharges to air, land or water are known as ‘prescribed premises’ and trigger regulation under Part V of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act). In Western Australia, the DER is responsible for the regulation of prescribed premises under the EP Act. Schedule 1 of the Environmental Protection Regulations 1987 lists the activities, and their associated production or design thresholds, that are considered to directly or indirectly cause or increase emissions. Table 2-3 sets out the waste management infrastructure that requires a licence (or registration) to operate.

Due to the nature of waste management infrastructure in the Study Area, Talis differentiated the treatment methods of waste materials between public landfills, which are generally managed by the relevant Local Government, and on-site landfills, which are managed privately usually by mining companies. Given the remoteness of many mine sites in the Study Area, on-site landfills are a common feature for many mining operations and represent a convenient and cost-effective means of waste disposal when transportation of waste materials off-site may not be considered viable.

Talis requested a data extract of all prescribed premises that are located within the Study Area from the DER, which was received in December 2015. The ‘key waste management facilities’ located within the Study Area are listed in the relevant Sub-catchment Area’s sections. No spatial information for these facilities was available at the time of the drafting of this report. As such, the facilities’ locations, shown on each of the Sub-catchment Area maps (Figures 2-7), should be considered indicative. Talis endeavoured to include additional facilities, where notified by Study respondents. However, as a result of the data limitations there may be some facilities located in the Study Area that have not been captured.

2.5.3 Extrapolation of Data

TW15032 - Main ItReport was not Draft.1c practicable to collect relevant data from every waste generator and waste service provider June 2016 | Page 16 within the Study Area. However, the data that was collected for the Study can be considered a representative sample. This data was subsequently extrapolated to estimate the total waste quantities within each Sub-catchment Area and the Study Area overall. Where possible, this was undertaken by applying per capita, or similar, waste generation rates from the collected data to operational areas and sites for which the data was not collected. Data obtained from the Department of Mines and Petroleum (DMP) was used to determine the number of mine sites that were operational or under development and to estimate workforce numbers on sites within each of the Sub-catchment Areas. Any mine sites that provided data were removed from this list to avoid double counting.

The response rate from waste generators equated to 25% of those invited to participate. However, it is understood that those generators that did respond represented most of the major resource operations in the Study Area.

Group Month YYYY In addition, specific waste data gaps were identified and quantities estimated based on corresponding collected data, informal communication with waste generators and Talis’ industry experience in other regional areas across Western Australia. The table of per capita extrapolated data for Sector 2 (Mining) is provided in Appendix C.

2.5.4 Assumptions

It was necessary to make a number of assumptions when inputting and analysing the data received. Some of the key assumptions adopted for the Study are as follows:

 In circumstances where a waste material was listed as being generated but no volume quantified (e.g. due to a lack of recording system), this waste material was included using extrapolated data, or if none existed, was omitted from the waste generation figures.  Septage waste (Controlled Waste category K210) and wastewater was excluded from the scope of the Study.  Where required, conversion factors were applied to raw data to ensure all material quantities were in tonnes. A list of conversion factors utilised are provided in Appendix D.  In circumstances where waste treatment data and/or locations were not provided in the survey, this information was populated from information on similar materials by other stakeholders and Talis’ understanding of the waste management systems in the Study Area. There was limited data provided relating to the treatment and disposal of hazardous waste materials. Consequently, care should be exercised in using the data relating to the treatment and disposal of hazardous wastes.  Where waste generation was reported for a period of less than 12 months, the quantity was factored up to 12 months unless stated by the stakeholders that this was a periodic waste stream.  Where relevant, data from Local Governments was broken down into the various town sites based on advice from the relevant Local Government.  Where data from different sources was conflicting, more accurate (weighbridge) data was adopted, if available.  Waste from Aboriginal communities was not included in the Study as it is governed through arrangements made with the Commonwealth government.  Waste rock from hard rock mine sites was excluded from the Study as it is stockpiled on TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1csite for future use in rehabilitation works, or disposed of on-site as part of the mining June 2016 | Page 16 operations and is, therefore, not considered to be a waste material.  Where truck tyres (Code 192) were listed as a generated waste but the type of tyre not specified, it was assumed 'light truck' tyres for calculation purposes.  Whilst there are numerous mine sites in the Study Area that have employee camps/accommodation villages associated with their activities, the limited data received from respondents was not considered robust enough to be included as a separate sector (Sector 10). Some sites outsource the employee camp waste management to third party contractors and, as such, data was not available to include in the Study. Any data known, or believed, to originate from Sector 10 has been amalgamated with Sector 2 (Mining activities).  Given the period of relatively low C&D activity in the region, there was very limited C&D waste data provided for resource projects that are under development (as defined by DMP). Consequently, C&D waste data (material types and per capita quantities) from the

Goldfields WastePilbara Data and PrioritiesBroome Study Waste Study was used as a proxy and extrapolated based on each Goldfields EnvironmentalSub-catchment Management Area’s Group C&D workforce for 2014/15, as published by DMP. Month YYYY Some Sub-catchment Area’s data is comprised of predominantly extrapolated data. In these circumstances, waste quantities and projections should be considered indicative only and used with caution.  Tyres may be noted as being stockpiled (i.e. diverted from landfill) but this material is ultimately disposed of to landfill (often monofills).  There was limited data available to the Study on fly-in, fly-out (FIFO) vs resident population workforce. As a result, for extrapolated data, workforce numbers have been used to estimate waste generation. In reality, some of this workforce may be part of the resident population and would be likely to generate less waste on site than a FIFO worker who is based at an accommodation village.  Whilst almost all waste that is exported from the Study Area is sent to Perth, a proportion of this waste is subsequently sent interstate and overseas for final treatment.

2.5.5 Projections

Population growth rates combined with per capita waste generation rates are utilised for the waste projections. As with the Pilbara and Broome Waste Data Study, it is considered that population provides the most reliable indicator for growth in waste generation across all three waste streams despite its acknowledged limitations as an indicator for C&I and C&D wastes. Population growth also results in increases in construction activity, producing C&D waste, and new operating facilities producing C&I waste.

As a consequence, waste generation up to 2035 was projected using published population growth scenarios along with current per capita waste generation rates for each of the three waste streams. The Study adopted three growth scenarios (high, medium and low) for each Sub-catchment Area and the Study Area overall in order to consider varying levels of future population growth and associated waste generation. The primary sources of population data were the Australian Bureau of Statistics and WA Planning Commission’s (WAPC) WA Tomorrow.

For areas with limited, or no, population data due to an absence of population centres, such as the Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area, predicted economic and construction activities and their associated proposed timescales were utilised to project future C&I waste and C&D waste quantities. These forecasts are based on available information at the time of writing.

The use of past trends to predict future population and economic activity can be unreliable due to TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c June 2016 | Page 16 impacts of individual projects. Given its geographical isolation, relatively small and dispersed population and typically large-scale resource development projects, population is considered to be strongly influenced by growth in the resources sector. Within the Study Area, a significant proportion of the population is involved directly, or indirectly, in the resources industry.

A summary of the sources for the low, medium and high population growth scenarios by Sub- catchment Area are shown in Table 2-4.

Impact of Major Resource Projects

In the Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area, the high growth scenario includes the development of the proposed uranium mine, Mulga Rock located to the south-west of the existing Tropicana gold mine. The area is cited as encompassing one of the largest undeveloped uranium resources in Australia. At the time of writing, construction of the project was anticipated to commence in 2017, subject to environmental approvals. If the project was to proceed, it would bring an estimated 1,200 additional people to the area as part of the construction workforce reducing to an estimated 315 people for the operational phase. By applying these additional estimated workforce figures to TW15032 - Main wasteReport projectionsDraft.1c for the Sub-catchment Area, there is evidence to suggest that there would be June 2016 | Page 16 significant increases in the amount of waste generated within this Sub-catchment Area.

3.1Month YYYYArea Profile

The Greater Wiluna Sub-catchment Area (Figure 2) covers an approximate area of 27,576km2 and is the most northerly of the Sub-catchment Areas in the Study. The primary population centre within this Sub-catchment Area is Wiluna town site, which is located within Shire of Wiluna. Whilst the Shire of Wiluna itself is not located within the Goldfields-Esperance administrative region (it is included within the Mid- West Region), it has been included within the Study due to its strong links with the Goldfields Region. This Sub-catchment Area has a similar economic profile and faces similar challenges to the rest of the Study Area in relation to waste management.

Economic activities within the Greater Wiluna Sub-catchment Area are comprised predominately of mining, pastoral and tourism industries. The Shire of Wiluna documented that the mining sector accounted for over half of the entire workforce in 2011, with gold and nickel operations being the principal resources mined currently.

The northern section of the Goldfields Highway runs through Wiluna town towards Meekatharra (about 180km west of Wiluna). This is the main route to access the area from the rest of the Goldfields Region with the closest population centre, the mining town of Leinster, located 170km to the south.

The key waste management infrastructure currently located within the Greater Wiluna Sub-catchment Area is shown in Table 3-1.

As can be seen in Table 3-1, the waste management infrastructure in the Sub-catchment Area is dominated by landfills, both public (run by the Shire) and private, which are referred to as on-site landfills.

3.3 Key Findings

During 2014/15, there was an estimated 7,559 tonnes of waste generated, with the majority (95%) originating from the C&I stream. This reflects the large resource industry presence in the Sub- catchment Area, which was the primary contributing sector. The remainder of waste was from MSW (4%) and a very small quantity (1%) generated from the C&D stream, also associated with the resources industry.

The largest waste material generated was mixed refuse with an estimated 3,319 tonnes (44% of total waste). This was followed by ferrous scrap metals and mixed scrap metals with 1,053 and 711 tonnes, respectively.

All MSW waste (308 tonnes) was recorded as being disposed of to the public landfill near Wiluna. The C&I stream had significantly greater recovery rates with an estimated 42% of waste being diverted from landfill to be recycled, including scrap metals and packaging materials.

The majority (95%) of the waste that was recycled or treated was exported outside of the Sub- catchment Area. This reflects the relatively small number of waste management facilities in the Sub- catchment Area (one public and several on-site landfills).

In terms of population projections, the high growth scenario could lead to a 2035 population of 2,998 people. This could lead to an estimated 18,558 tonnes of waste being generated by 2035. However, these growth projections only take into account resource projects that are currently operational or under development1. There are numerous projects that are proposed to be developed within the Sub- catchment Area. However, given a high degree of uncertainty around when these projects will proceed, they have not been included in the Study’s population projections. As such, the future C&D waste generation figures are considered to be conservative and significantly higher C&D waste figures would be expected to eventuate when these major resource projects do proceed to the development stage.

The Shire of Wiluna has previously acknowledged that Wiluna’s future growth will be driven by the increase in the surrounding mining activity. As mentioned above, there are a number of large resource projects proposed in the Sub-catchment Area, which are expected to significantly contribute to growth. At the time of writing, the Wiluna Uranium project had received State and Federal approvals and was set to start development, which would bring an estimated 350 jobs to the Sub-catchment Area for its construction phase and 170 for its operational phase. The Yeelirrie Uranium project is also

TW15032 - Main locatedReport Draft.1c in the Sub-catchment Area and, if developed, is expected to have a 1,200 strong June 2016 | Page 17 construction workforce. These projects would bring significant economic benefits to the Sub- catchment Area but also have the potential to place enormous pressure on existing waste management infrastructure. As there are currently no operational uranium mines in Western Australia the information on how site-specific waste would be managed is limited.

4 Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area

4.1 Area Profile

The Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (Figure 3) covers an approximate area of 57,193km2 and predominantly encompasses the Shires of Leonora and Laverton as well as small sections of the Shire of Menzies. The main population centres within this Sub-catchment Area are Leonora, Leinster and Laverton. In 2014, the Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area had a population of 3,921. The Sub-catchment Area’s boundary extends southwards as far as 175km north of Kalgoorlie and to Leinster, located close to the Sub-catchment Area’s north-west boundary. The town of Leonora is located in the approximate centre of the Sub-catchment Area, approximately 235km north of Kalgoorlie on the Goldfields Highway. The town of Laverton is situated in the east of the Sub-catchment Area, approximately 125km to the north-east of Laverton.

The Goldfields-Esperance Development Commission determined that mining accounts for around half the jobs in the Sub-catchment Area (Shire of Leonora 49.5% and Shire of Laverton 55.5%) and includes gold, nickel and rare earth mining. As testament to the significance of mining to the economy of the area, the town of Leinster was established in 1976 as a company town (now owned by BHP Billiton) to support mining activities in the area. According to DMP, there are 18 operating mines and four mine sites under development, including expansion proposals, within this Sub-catchment Area.

The Goldfields Highway runs through the Sub-catchment Area with two main roads off the highway leading to Leinster and Laverton. The Goldfields Highway is the primary road for accessing the area from the rest of the Goldfields Region and Perth via the Great Northern Highway.

The key waste management infrastructure currently located within the Northern Goldfields Sub- catchment Area is shown in Table 4-1.

As can be seen above, the vast majority of the waste management infrastructure within the Sub- catchment Area is privately operated. There are two public landfills in the Sub-catchment Area, one in Leonora and one in Laverton. Both are registered (Category 89 putrescible) landfills limited to accept up to 5,000 tonnes of waste per year.

4.3 Key Findings

An estimated 46,296 tonnes of waste was generated within the Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area during 2014/15. Of this, the vast majority, 96%, originated from the C&I stream with 2% from the C&D stream and 2% from the MSW stream. The largest waste material type was mixed refuse with 21,615 tonnes or 33% of the total waste generated in the Sub-catchment Area. Other significant waste materials generated included ferrous metals (4,669 tonnes) and mixed metals (3,780 tonnes).

In total, 63% of total waste generated was disposed of to landfill with an estimated 97% of this being sent to on-site landfills, with the remainder (3%) being transported to public landfills (local and exported outside of the Sub-catchment Area) for disposal. Many of the mine sites in this Sub-catchment Area have their own registered or licensed landfill. This makes landfill disposal a convenient and cost- effective option for waste generators, many of whom are located significant distances from town sites and other waste management facilities. A total of 34% of waste was recycled with all recyclable materials originating from the C&I and C&D streams. The predominant waste management facilities situated within the Sub-catchment Area are on-site landfills so all recycled materials need to be exported out of the Sub-catchment Area for treatment. Based on available data, the landfill diversion rate for this Sub-catchment Area is 37% of all waste generated in 2014/15. However, waste generation and disposal is likely to be underreported. The registered landfills in Leonora and Laverton are unmanned and waste volumes being disposed of at the landfill outside of kerbside collections by the council have not captured as part of the Study. Additionally, the waste generation figures should be considered rough estimates as the majority (90%) of this Sub-catchment Area’s waste volumes and treatment methods were based on extrapolated data.

The Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area experienced a high level of growth for the period 2004- 2014, with an annual average growth rate of 4% (shown as the high growth rate). Under the high growth scenario, the population of the Sub-catchment Area could grow to 8,935 people by 2035 with an estimated total waste generation of 105,497 tonnes by 2035. Given the recent downturn in global commodity prices and the Sub-catchment Area’s high reliance of the mining sector for employment, at the time of writing the likelihood of sustained growth at these historical growth levels appears unlikely.

The more moderate medium growth rate of 1.19% would still increase the population of the Sub- catchment Area to an estimated 5,027 people and an associated increase in waste generation to an estimated 59,351 tonnes by 2035 or an additional 13,055 on 2014/15 waste levels.

5 Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area

5.1 Area Profile

The Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (Figure 4) covers an approximate area of 83,450km2 and is the largest and most populous Sub-catchment Area within the Study Area. The Central Goldfields includes the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder and the Shires of Coolgardie, Menzies and Dundas. In 2014, the Central Goldfields had a population of 39,108. The main population centres in this Sub-catchment Area are Kalgoorlie-Boulder, Coolgardie, Kambalda, Norseman and Menzies.

Economic activities within the Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area include mining, education and tourism activities. Mining is cited as being the predominant employment industry for City of Kalgoorlie- Boulder (21%), Shire of Coolgardie (44.8%) and Shire of Dundas (32.6%) with education the largest employer in Shire of Menzies with 19.8%. In line with most of the other Sub-catchment Areas in the Study Area, the Central Goldfields’ economy is strongly influenced by the level of activity in the mining sector which is dominated by gold and nickel mining.

There are several major road networks in the Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area. These are the Goldfields Highway running north of Kalgoorlie linking to the Coolgardie-Esperance Highway, which runs south to Esperance, the Great Eastern Highway which is the main road connection with Perth and the Eyre Highway, which connects the Region to the eastern states. There is also rail infrastructure running from Kalgoorlie to Perth, Esperance, Leonora and to the eastern states.

5.2.1 Key Findings

There was an estimated 155,207 tonnes of waste generated in the Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area in 2014/15. This was split between the three waste streams with C&I the largest contributor at 54%, followed by MSW (32%) and C&D (14%).

The largest contributing sector was Domestic with 51,384 tonnes or one third of the total waste generated for 2014/15. The next largest sector was Other/Mixed with 26% and the Mining sector with 18%. Based on discussions with key stakeholders within the Sub-catchment Area, Talis determined the Other/Mixed sector predominantly included waste arising from commercial and industrial activities Waste Generation by Sector within the various townsites along with some mining sector waste collected within close proximity to the various townsites.

By far the largest waste material generated during the 2014/15 period was mixed refuse with 65,889 tonnes originating from both the MSW (24,963 tonnes) and C&I (40,926 tonnes) streams. The mixed refuse from the MSW stream is comprised primarily of community drop-off to one of the public landfills (Yarri Road, Kalgoorlie). Other significant waste materials were waste treatment plant residue (18,226 tonnes), kerbside refuse (14,426 tonnes) and clean fill (13,890 tonnes).

85% of waste generated was disposed of to landfill within the Sub-catchment Area with the vast majority of this, 78.7% (122,150 tonnes) sent to public landfill and the remainder (10,435 tonnes) disposed of at on-site (privately managed) landfills. Approximately 11% (16,571 tonnes) of waste materials are recycled within the Sub-catchment Area or exported from the Study Area for treatment. Commonly recycled materials in this Sub-catchment Area include scrap metals (ferrous and mixed), waste oils and paper and cardboard. There was 65% diversion rate of greenwaste from landfill in the Sub-catchment Area, with 5,072 tonnes mulched.

In all, 15,691 tonnes of materials were exported from the Sub-catchment Area for treatment. This was predominantly comprised of recyclable materials being sent to Perth for export to international markets.

In terms of future population and waste projections, the high growth scenario (1% annual average growth rate) would result in the Sub-catchment Area’s population reaching 52,151 by 2035. This could result in an increase in waste generation to 206,971 tonnes per annum by 2035 (a 133% increase on 2014/15 levels). As mentioned earlier, the GEDC reported that the mining sector employs a significant proportion of the workforce in the Sub-catchment Area. As such, future population growth in this Sub-

6 Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area

6.1 Area Profile

The Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area (Figure 5) covers an approximate area of 11,376km2 and is primarily located within the Shire of Menzies. This Sub-catchment Area is particularly isolated, with the closest population centre accessible by road, Kalgoorlie, approximately 370km away. There are currently no permanent population centres located within this Sub-catchment Area. The current economic activity in the area can be entirely attributed to the Tropicana Gold Mine, which has been operational since 2013 (Tropicana JV, 2016) and is populated by a transient Fly-in Fly-Out (FIFO) workforce from Kalgoorlie and Perth.

The only road access to the site is via a purpose-built access road from Pinjin to Kalgoorlie, which at 220km in length, makes this site extremely remote.

The only waste management facilities currently located within this Sub-catchment Area are part of the Tropicana Gold Mine. These are listed Table 6-1.

Table 6-1: Key Waste Management Facilities within the Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area

Name Type Operator Category 64 putrescible landfill (on-site) AngloGold Ashanti Tropicana Gold Mine Category 57 Used tyre storage Australia Ltd

The Sub-catchment Area also includes the area associated with the proposed Mulga Rock Uranium Project, which is considered to be one of largest undeveloped uranium resources in Australia. At the time of writing, the project was expected to commence construction in 2017, pending environmental approvals. Should the project proceed, it is expected to bring to the Sub-catchment Area a workforce of up to 1,200 people during the construction phase and approximately 315 people for the operational phase over its estimated 16 year life. As a result, there would be a significant increase in the amount of waste generated within the Sub-catchment Area with the addition of this project.

6.3 Key Findings

6,112 tonnes of waste was estimated to be generated within the Sub-catchment Area during 2015, with all of this attributed to the C&I stream. There was no MSW waste recorded as there are no population centres, located within the Sub-catchment Area.

The largest waste material generated, by quantity, was mixed refuse with 2,076 tonnes. The next most substantial waste materials generated were an estimated 1,425 tonnes of contaminated soil and 720 tonnes of concrete.

Just under half (49%) of the waste generated within the Sub-catchment Area was diverted from landfill. However, this landfill diversion rate is likely to be overestimated due to the omission of several waste materials that were generated but not included in the total due to a lack of quantified data2. There is limited waste management infrastructure present in the Sub-catchment Area other than an on-site landfill (Class II putrescible landfill), used tyre storage area and a bioremediation pad for contaminated soil. As such, most of the recycled materials are treated outside of the Sub-catchment Area in Kalgoorlie or Perth. A total of 1,563 tonnes of material was exported for recycling or treatment including waste oils, scrap metals and mixed paper and cardboard. In relation to waste treated within the Sub-catchment Area, two thirds (3,124 tonnes) was disposed of at the on-site landfill with the remainder (1,425 tonnes) being treated using the on-site bioremediation pad.

Due to the remoteness of the Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area and limited waste generators, Talis has included the development of Mulga Rock within the waste projections. Based on similar construction projects, Talis has adopted a conservative waste generation projection for the construction phase of the project, which is forecast for 2017.

Under the high growth scenario, with construction and operation of the Mulga Rock uranium project and on the assumption that Tropicana continues to operate at comparable levels to those recorded as part of the Study, total waste generation within the Sub-catchment Area could peak at 16,112 tonnes in 2017 before reducing to 9,843 tonnes up to 2035. As mentioned above, the waste generation projections include broad estimates of construction and demolition (C&D) waste that would be associated with construction of Mulga Rock uranium project, should the project commence construction in 2017 for an estimated period of 12 months.

Limited data is available on the future economic activities and population of the Sub-catchment Area given there are no current or planned permanent population centres in the Sub-catchment Area. As TW15032 - Main such,Report the Draft.1 actualc population and associated future waste generation quantities could fall to zero if the June 2016 |35 current mine site closes. Given the uncertainty of future economic activity in this Sub-catchment Area and the cyclical nature of the resource sector, these projections should be considered indicative only.

2 These include, for example, mixed organics, food waste and mixed refuse.

7.3 Key Findings

In 2014/15, 38,248 tonnes of waste was generated within the Esperance Sub-catchment Area. A little over half (52%) of the waste generated originated from the C&I stream. The MSW stream contributed 41% of total waste generated in the Sub-catchment Area with C&D waste making up the remaining 7%.

The sector that generated the most waste in this Sub-catchment Area was the Other/Mixed sector with 54% of total waste generated reflecting the commercial and hospitality industries within the Esperance town site. This includes waste from Esperance Port. The other main contributing sectors were Domestic (41%) and Agriculture (5%).

The largest quantity of waste material generated was mixed refuse with 13,892 tonnes, making up 36% of the total waste generated in the Sub-catchment Area. This was followed by kerbside refuse (11,178 tonnes) and clean fill from commercial generators (5,917 tonnes).

A total of 32,656 tonnes (85%) of waste was disposed of to the public landfill in Esperance. From this, the landfill diversion rate was estimated to be 12.5% for waste treated in the Sub-catchment Area. There was 4,641 tonnes diverted from landfill within the Sub-catchment Area through greenwaste processing (2,504 tonnes), recycling (1,027 tonnes) or stockpiling (1,110 tonnes). A further 951 tonnes of waste was exported from the Sub-catchment Area for treatment. Of this, 831 tonnes (87%) was sent for recycling to Kalgoorlie-Boulder (480 tonnes), elsewhere in Western Australia (451 tonnes) and interstate (20 tonnes). The inclusion of exported waste materials increases the total landfill diversion rate for the Sub-catchment Area to 14%.

The Esperance Growth Plan, a joint publication by Shire of Esperance, Goldfields-Esperance Development Commission and Esperance Chamber of Commerce and Industry, was published in 2012. It includes different growth scenarios for the Shire and cites an aspirational population for 2036 of 25,000 people. Using the aspirational growth rate from the Esperance Growth Plan of 3%, as the ‘high’ population growth scenario applied to 2014 population figures, the Sub-catchment Area’s population could increase to 26,950 by 2035. This could lead to a resultant increase in total waste generation of 71,153 tonnes per annum, almost double (186% increase) on 2014/15 waste generation levels.

8 Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment Area

8.1 Area Profile

The Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment Area (Figure 7) covers an approximate area of 9,839km2, which represents the entire Shire of Ravensthorpe. The Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment Area is a coastal area situated in the south-west of the Study Area and bordered by the Esperance Sub-catchment Area to the east. The main population centre within this Sub-catchment Area is Ravensthorpe and Hopetoun. The population of the Sub-catchment Area in 2014 was recorded as 2,310 (ABS).

The key economic activities within this Sub-catchment Area are mining, agriculture (both grain and livestock exports) and tourism. The mining industry is the largest employer representing 28% of jobs in the Ravensthorpe area (GEDC, 2015). Mining in this area is primarily focused on nickel although, given the cyclical nature of the mining industry, the proportion of people employed by the sector is likely to fluctuate.

The South Coast Highway runs through Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment with two main roads off the highway leading to Hopetoun and Perth.

The key waste management infrastructure currently located within the Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment Area is shown in Table 8-1.

In 2014/15, 3,524 tonnes of waste was generated within the Ravensthorpe Sub-catchment Area. This waste was comprised of 66% C&I stream waste and 34% MSW stream waste. The largest waste generation sector was mining representing 53% of the total waste generated.

The largest materials type generated was mixed refuse with 1,203 tonnes from local businesses, mining and households. Other notable material types generated were scrap (ferrous) metals with 299 tonnes and kerbside refuse (624 tonnes).

34% of all waste generated was diverted from landfill for recycling or treatment. Of this, the vast majority was exported outside of the Sub-catchment Area. Waste materials that were transported for recycling include waste oil and scrap metal.

For waste that was treated within the Sub-catchment Area, 95% (2,306 tonnes) of waste disposed of to a publicly managed landfill, with 2% (50 tonnes of greenwaste) recovered for mulching and 3% (69 tonnes of contaminated soil) undergoing treatment by bioremediation.

If the population continues to grow at the current rate of growth (an annual average growth rate of 3.95% from 2004-2014), the population is projected to reach 5,211 by 2035. This increase in population could lead to an associated increase in total waste generation of 7,949 tonnes by 2035. Conversely, under the low growth rate scenario, the Sub-catchment Area’s population could decline from 2014 figures to 1,976 by 2035, representing a 14% decrease and an associated projected reduction in waste generation to 3,015 tonnes.

As the waste projections have been based on current per capita waste generation and there were no major resource or development projects under construction during the 2014/15 period, C&D waste projections are likely to be significantly under estimated. A polymetallic exploration project, Great Southern, is located within the Sub-catchment Area approximately 18km south-east of Ravensthorpe (Kundip Polymetallic Project). Should exploration of this area be successful, the development of mining operations in the area would likely result in a significant increase of C&D waste generated from the mine’s construction.

10 Waste Data Findings

This section sets out the key waste data findings from the data analysis of the Study for both individual Sub-catchment Areas and the whole Study Area.

10.1 Waste Generation  Total waste generation within the Study Area for 2014/15 was 256,945 tonnes.  The largest quantity of waste was generated in the Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area with 155,207 tonnes. Followed by the Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area with 46,296 tonnes and Esperance Sub-catchment Area with 38,248 tonnes.  Across the Study Area, 27% of total waste was generated from the MSW stream, 63% from the C&I stream and 10% from the C&D stream.  A breakdown of waste generation by stream across the Study Area is shown in Figure 10-1. The distribution of waste streams varies significantly between Sub-catchment Areas. The Greater Wiluna, Northern Goldfields and Remote East Goldfields (REG) Sub-catchment Area’s waste generation was dominated by C&I with less than 2% of waste originating from the MSW stream reflective of these Sub-catchment Areas’ low population density.  Less than 10% of waste across the Study Area was generated in the C&D stream. This reflects the relatively low level of major resource project developments in the Area during the 2014/15 period.

 The sector generating the most waste across the Study Area in 2014/15 was the Mining sector with 35% of total waste generation (89,819 tonnes). The next largest sector was Domestic, generating just over a quarter (27%) of the total waste with 69,409 tonnes, followed by Other/Mixed sector with 61,559 tonnes (24%).

10.2 Waste Treatment  The Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area exported the largest quantity of waste materials with 15,944 tonnes, representing 34% of total waste generated.  The Study Area achieved an overall diversion from landfill rate of 20.4%. This compares with a diversion from landfill rate of 39% for the whole of WA in 2013-14 (Recycling Activity in Western Australia 2013-14).  The Study Area’s landfill diversion rate was also significantly lower than that of other regional centres such as the Pilbara region, which achieved a 43% diversion rate in 2011/12.  The Waste Authority also looks at kilograms (kg) of waste diverted per person vs kilograms of waste landfilled by person. Compared with the State average for the years 2010-11 to 2013- 14, the Study Area performed better for diversion of waste from landfill with 850kg compared with the State average of 979.5kg but the Study Area is found to be significantly higher (50% greater) for waste landfilled per person with 3,324kg compared with the State average of 1,654kg.  The C&I sector had the greatest proportion of waste materials recycled with 26% of all waste generated, compared with the C&D sector (6%) and the MSW sector (12%).  15.4% of total waste generated was recycled. The C&I sector had the greatest proportion of waste recycled with 22% of all waste generated, compared with the C&D sector (6%) and the MSW sector (3.4%).  There was an estimated 36,499 tonnes of waste exported from the Study Area for treatment. However, the actual quantities of waste exported is likely to be significantly higher as waste that was recorded as being recycled the Study Area (e.g. in Kalgoorlie-Boulder) would be subsequently sent outside of the Study Area for export to international markets.  The most prevalent waste materials that were exported for treatment were mixed scrap metals (9,677 tonnes), ferrous metals (non-packaging) (8,601 tonnes) and waste oil (4,085 tonnes). These materials were predominantly sent to Perth and surrounds for treatment or onwards exporting to international markets.  The remainder of waste materials diverted from landfill (5% or 12,750 tonnes) were treated by greenwaste processing, stockpiling, or by undergoing hazardous or thermal treatment.  The Sub-catchment Area with the greatest diversion from landfill rate from the Study data was the Remote East Goldfields with 49%. However, this landfill diversion rate is likely to be overestimated due to the omission of several waste materials that were generated but not included in the total due to a lack of quantified data.  The Sub-catchment Areas with the lowest diversion from landfill rates were Central Goldfields TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1cand Esperance with 15% and 14% respectively. However, this may reflect the fact that these June 2016 |51 Sub-catchment Areas have more comprehensive waste generation recording systems that other Sub-catchment Areas.  Figure 10-2 sets out the waste treatment methods breakdown by Sub-catchment Area. This illustrates the variation between Sub-catchment Areas. The Sub-catchment Areas that utilised on-site landfills for waste disposal more so than public landfills were Remote East Goldfields with 100% of waste landfilled sent to on-site landfill and Greater Wiluna with 92% of landfilled waste going to on-site landfills. This is likely to be due to the remoteness of these Sub-

Month YYYY

catchment Areas in relation to public landfills, making on-site landfill disposal a more convenient and cost-effective option.  The southern Sub-catchment Areas of Esperance and Ravensthorpe rely predominantly on public landfill for waste disposal with 86% and 66% respectively. The Greater Wiluna, Northern Goldfields and Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Areas have little to no reliance on public landfills with private on-site landfills being the predominant waste treatment method.  Overall, the Study Area still relies on landfills, both public and on-site, for waste treatment with 80% of waste disposed of to landfill.

10.3 Waste Projections  Waste generation up to 2035 was estimated, based on future population projections. Each Sub-catchment Area, and the Study Area as a whole, was allocated three growth rates and a resulting scenario – low, medium and high.  Population and waste projection growth rates for the Study are predominantly linear although the Study Area’s population is likely to deviate from uniform growth over the next 20 years due to the cyclical nature of the economy.  The growth scenarios show that by 2035, the Study Area’s population could increase to 78,924 TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c under the high growth scenario or, potentially, grow to 71,275 people under the low growth June 2016 |52 scenario.  Total waste generation could reach 329,404 tonnes per year by 2035, representing a 28% increase on 2014/15 waste generation levels under the high growth scenario or could grow by a more moderate 16% under the low growth scenario equating to 297,481 tonnes by 2035.

11 Key Waste Management Priorities

In addition to requesting waste data, stakeholders were also invited to provide their views on what they believed to be the key waste management priorities in the Study Area. As part of this process, respondents were asked to provide their views on:

 Peak waste streams - waste streams that are considered to be peak to their organisation, based on annual quantities generated;  Problematic waste;  Waste management infrastructure gaps and opportunities; and  Market gaps and opportunities.

A key objective of this process was to document and publish the key challenges across the waste sector, from generators through to public and private service providers so that these can be given due consideration in future planning and the decision making processes from waste policy through to infrastructure and services.

The following sections will summarise the comments provided by respondents as well as proposed solutions for further detailed consideration.

11.1 Peak waste streams

Peak waste streams, for the purposes of the Study, are those materials that are the highest quantities of waste generated each year identified through this Study. These are recognised as key priorities for two key reasons, both of which are at opposite sides of the spectrum.

The larger waste streams generated generally require a significant amount of planning and management due to their associated volumes. However, this also leads to opportunities as the larger waste streams can make more advanced and sustainable treatment options viable due to economics of scale.

Respondents listed a variety of peak waste streams within their submissions that aligned with the findings of the data obtained as part of this Study. The top 15 waste materials arising across the Study Area are listed below in Table 11-1.

As can be seen within Table 11-1, the top 15 material types equates to 235,816 tonnes which is 92% of all waste generated within the Study Area. A point of interest from the analysis is the volume of refuse (mixed refuse or kerbside refuse) across the Study Area which is 135,412 tonnes per annum. These consolidated volumes may present opportunities to the waste sector, which is evolving at a significant pace in Western Australia, to develop more advanced treatment options in the region, potentially waste to energy. This evolution may be advanced further in the future by legislative and policy reforms particularly in regional areas.

11.2 Problematic waste

Problematic waste refers to those waste materials that present issues to waste generators and/or managers due to a number of reasons including, but not limited to:  Nature and characteristics of the materials including hazardous and/or flammable properties;  Handling and transportation issues;  Volume of materials generated to make treatment options financially viable;  The limited range of technically and financially viable treatment options;  Lack of available markets within the region; and  Issues associated within landfilling these materials.

Furthermore, some materials are also referred to as problematic as waste generators recognise that there are greater outcomes possible for the treatment of these materials, which are ranked higher up the Waste Hierarchy (such as recycling) than what is being achieved (such as landfilling). Therefore, some materials are recognised as problematic as they represent an opportunity lost.

Unsurprisingly, the respondents that provided commentary on the Problematic Waste can be categorised as either Local Government or Waste Generators, particularly mining companies. There were very similar and recurring views on the types of Problematic Wastes by the respondents within each group, which are associated with their relevant activities. Therefore, Talis has grouped the Problematic Waste responses into each category being Local Government Authorities and Waste Generators.

It should be noted that numerous Local Governments cited septage waste as problematic although, as the scope of the Study did not include septage waste, this is not discussed further.

Tyres  Develop isolated landfill cells solely for the acceptance of tyres (these are referred to as monofills). Once covered, the tyres will not degrade and therefore, at a later stage the tyres can be recovered when recycling options become more viable. Therefore, tyre monofills should be recorded with GPS coordinates and volumes disposed of.  Consider a regional contract for the collection and/or processing of light gauge steel to determine options available within the current market.

Many of the resource recovery options require minimum and consistent volumes of material to be generated to ensure that the process is cost effective. Although distances between population centres in some parts of the Study Area is significant, there would still be potential for regionalisation to obtain greater volumes of materials in order to make these more attractive to markets. This could be

achieved by contractors providing mobile plant that can process materials at the various waste management facilities across the region. It is recommended that the Local Governments further pursue the option of a Regional Contract(s) for the processing or collection of waste materials such as greenwaste, C&D, glass, recyclables, tyres, etc. Through this regional approach, options that are currently not viable at a local level can become so through the amalgamation of tonnages and servicing requirements.

benefits of a joint regional facility would be the amalgamation of waste tonnages from multiple generators, making problematic waste more financially viable to process and more attractive to markets to process. As part of these works, consideration should be given to the preferred ownership model for such a facility or if the mining companies should work collaboratively to encourage Local Government Authorities or Private Waste Service Providers to deliver such a facility by committing tonnage.  Continue to share information with the waste sector in relation to volumes and issues around the treatment of Problematic Waste.  Seek State or Federal Government rebates, subsidies, incentives or funding that are available.  Knowledge sharing across the region. Understanding how others are managing their waste, are there opportunities to improve and, if appropriate, collaborate on waste removal and recycling options.

11.3 Waste infrastructure and market gaps

The following table (Table 11-5) sets out the waste infrastructure and market gaps that were identified by respondents including Local Government Authorities, Waste Generators and Private Waste Service Providers through the Study. The respondents also proposed solutions and opportunities, which are listed.

As evident from the submissions of the respondents, a variety of infrastructure and market gaps have been identified across the Study Area, many of which are common in other regional areas of Western Australia due to the relatively low volumes of waste generated within isolated areas. As evident from the works undertaken as part of this Study and the associated findings, these issues have presented significant challenges to waste generators, Local Governments and Private Waste Services Providers. As outlined previously, Talis recommends the Waste Generators and Local Government TW15032 - Main shouldReport Draft.1cbe considering a variety of regional approaches to gather and commit tonnes to the markets June 2016 |61 for the Private Waste Services Providers or Local Government to devise more advanced solutions. This approach could resolve a variety of the infrastructure and market issues identified within the Study. This aligns with the Goldfields-Esperance Development Commission’s recognition of the opportunities to provide more comprehensive waste services to the mining and processing sectors. This could be achieved by having facilities across the region which assist with diversifying the economy of the region and generating employment opportunities.

12 Discussion

Arising from the works and consultation undertaken as part of the Study and the associated findings, a number of key discussions points have been identified. These are categorised as follows:

 Current waste management system;  Waste generation and projections;  Comparison to State Waste Strategy Targets; and  Key waste priorities.

12.1 Current waste management system

As qualified within the Study, there is a high reliance on landfill across the Study Area for the treatment of waste generated reaching 79.6% in 2014/15. There are a number of reasons to this including both regional and local factors. Currently, there is no landfill levy within regional Western Australia, which financially penalises the use of landfills to drive the diversion of material to more sustainable outcomes. However, for the vast majority of Sub-catchment Areas, there are low volumes of waste generated within isolated areas. This presents a number of challenges in trying to achieve more sustainable outcomes as advanced resource recovery systems are currently not technically and financially viable.

There is significant variation in the utilisation of public and on-site landfills across the Study Area. According to DER data received, the Study Area has a total of 50 landfills including 12 publicly operated with the remainder (38) being on-site facilities privately run by mine site operators. The vast majority of these landfills consist of unlined facilities. The environmental performance of these waste management systems in the Study Area could be improved if these landfills were consolidated into a few modern facilities, developed under best practice principles. Table 12-1 sets out the number of public and on-site landfills by Sub-catchment Area.

Month YYYY

As can be seen, some Sub-catchment Areas have very few or no public landfills, such as Greater Wiluna (one public landfill near Wiluna town site) and Remote East Goldfields (no public landfill).

The southern Sub-catchment Areas of Esperance and Ravensthorpe rely predominantly on public landfill for waste disposal with 86% and 66% of waste disposed of to landfills, respectively. Others have little to no reliance on public landfills with private on-site landfills being the predominant waste treatment method. The Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area utilised on-site landfills for waste disposal for almost two thirds of waste generated, compared with just 2% going to public landfill. In the Remote East Goldfields, with an absence of public landfills in the Sub-catchment Area, just over half (51%) of waste generated was disposed of to the on-site landfill.

The largest of the Local Government owned landfills is the Yarri Road facility on the outskirts of Kalgoorlie-Boulder site which is clay-lined and accepts up to 150,000 tonnes of waste per annum including mixed municipal solid, C&I and C&D waste.

The State Government regulation of Prescribed Premises is becoming more stringent facilitated through the recent reform programs. A key aspect of this is a more consistent approach to specifying standards. The DER has adopted a more holistic approach to the adoption of the Victorian Environmental Protection Authority’s Best Practice Environmental Management (BPEM) for Siting, Design, Operation and Rehabilitation of Landfills Guidance (Best Practice Landfill Guidelines) across the State, particularly in major Regional Centres. The DER’s view is that these best practice standards should apply to both old and new landfills, which is having significant ramifications for the owners and operators of these facilities. This holistic approach to compliance with the Best Practice Landfill Guidelines has resulted in many of the Local Governments in rural areas commencing costly exercises to achieve compliance to ensure that long term disposal services can be provided to their communities.

Currently, there are no landfills within the Study Area that full comply with the design requirements of the Best Practice Landfill Guidelines however it is anticipated that this will be enforced within the coming years in some areas. This will significantly increase the waste management costs within these areas. However, this cost increase presents the opportunity for more sustainable waste practices such as resource recovery, which can be either attractive or cost neutral to best practice landfilling costs.

Recycling

A total of 14%, or 36,499 tonnes, of waste generated is exported out of the Study Area for treatment. Most of this waste is exported to Perth with a small proportion also being transported interstate for TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c June 2016 |63 treatment. This figure is likely to be underestimated as it does not account for waste volumes that was reported to have been exported from one Sub-catchment Area to another (e.g. Kalgoorlie-Boulder) for treatment, which in most cases, are subsequently exported to Perth and ultimately sent to international markets.

There is a potential opportunity to better utilise Esperance Port for the export of these recyclable materials rather than transportation to Perth, which may make recycling of the materials more financially rewarding viable and rewarding.

Uranium mining waste

The potential development of numerous uranium mining operations in the Study Area presents both challenges and opportunities. The waste generated from uranium mine operations will include radioactive waste materials, which will need to be carefully managed. Whilst a number of the proposed uranium developments have indicated that the uranium ore itself will be transported to South Australia for export, there may be opportunities for the region to use the introduction of this new resource industry as a means for advancing waste management systems and infrastructure for the betterment of the region as a whole.

12.2 Waste Generation and Projections

12.2.1 Waste Generation

A breakdown of the per capita waste generation across the Study Area by Sub-catchment Area is set out in Table 12-2. Total per capita waste generation within the Study Area was 4.17, which is significantly higher when compared with the State average per capita of 2.6 tonnes (Waste Strategy, 2012). However, significant variation was recorded across the Study Area. The Ravensthorpe Sub- catchment Area recorded 1.53 tonnes per capita (41% lower than the State average).

The Remote East Goldfields Sub-catchment Area and the Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area had the highest per capita waste generation figures with 11.85 tonnes and 11.81 tonnes per capita, which is over four times higher than the State average. One contributing factor that will have influenced these per capita figures in Remote East Goldfields and Northern Goldfields is the low population and in relation to the industrial activities due to the high incidence of a fly-in-fly-out (FIFO) workforce.

TW15032 - Main 12.2.2Report Draft.1c Waste Projections June 2016 |64

Due to the uncertainty associated with predicting the number and magnitude of future resource projects, difficulty arises in projecting growth in future waste generation across the majority of the Study Area, which is heavily reliant on the resources sector. As described previously, population projections were considered to be the most appropriate method of projecting waste generation for all of the waste streams, due to the correlation between population and economic activities in the Study Area. However, population forecasts for the Sub-catchment Area and Study Area vary considerably between high and low growth scenarios leading to a range of waste generation projections. Under a high growth

TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c June 2016 | 64 Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Goldfields Environmental Management Group

Month YYYY

scenario, waste generation over the whole Study Area may increase to over 340,000 tonnes per annum by 2035. Under the low growth scenario, it may increase to around 307,000 tonnes per annum by 2035.

Should the high growth scenario for the Study Area come to fruition, this could present a number of challenges to waste generators, Local Governments and the Private Waste Service Providers. This growth could firstly put further pressure on the existing waste management systems within the region. This is particularly relevant to the waste management facilities that currently service the key regional centres of the Study Area, including Kalgoorlie and Esperance. In the more remote areas of the Study Area, an increase in the waste volumes could also present regulatory issues for the facilities through a Prescribed Premises reclassification from the DER. A number of these facilities are currently Category 89 Rural Landfills however, tonnage increases could result in the facilities exceeding the thresholds for the Category 64 Landfill throughputs. As a result these facilities may require more stringent engineering and operating standards to achieve compliance which would increase the cost of the services.

However, the forecasted increase in waste across the Study Area also present opportunities which should could assist in resolving some of the current issues or key priorities. These increased tonnages can generate sufficient volumes to make the recycling, recovery or treatment of these priority waste streams more financial viable due to economies of scale. Similarly, this may also assist in reducing the Study Areas current heavily reliance on landfill.

12.3 Waste Strategy Targets

As outlined previously, the overall landfill diversion rate for the Study Area across all three waste streams was 20.4%. The Waste Strategy contains landfill diversion targets for each of the three waste streams. The MSW landfill diversion targets only relates to regional centres as determined within the State Waste Strategy which includes Kalgoorlie-Boulder. The C&I and C&D streams have State-wide landfill diversion targets. Table 12-3 sets out the current landfill diversion rates in the Study Area compared with the Waste Strategy targets for 2015 and 2020 and State-wide landfill diversion rates for 2013/14.

Month YYYY

As can be seen from Table 12-3, Kalgoorlie-Boulder (part of Central Goldfields Sub-catchment Area) would require significant improvements in the landfill diversion rates in order to achieve the 2020 target for MSW of 50% from 14% in 2014/15. The overall Study Area MSW landfill diversion rate is 12% (against a 2015 target of 30%). This is also significantly below the 2013/14 reported State-wide landfill diversion rates of 26%. Whilst the Waste Strategy landfill diversion targets for MSW are only applicable to Regional Centres currently, these landfill diversion targets could be applied State-wide in the future. This can be compared with the Pilbara region, which achieved a 16% landfill diversion rate (33% higher than the Study Area) for MSW in 2011/12.

The Study Area’s C&I stream was the best performing stream reaching a 26% landfill diversion rate against a 2015 target of 55%. Several of the Sub-catchment Areas performed better than the State 2013/14 diversion rate of 45% including Ravensthorpe (48%), Remote East Goldfields (49%) but were still below the 2015 Strategy target of 55%. On comparison with other regional areas, the Pilbara region achieved significantly higher overall landfill diversion rates for C&I (39%) in 2011/12.

The C&D stream also saw positive landfill diversion rates in the Study Area with Greater Wiluna Sub- catchment Area, Northern Goldfields Sub-catchment Area and Esperance Sub-catchment Area all meeting or exceeding the State’s 2013/14 diversion rate of 38%. The Study Area’s overall C&D landfill diversion rate was 6% although two Sub-catchment Areas did not report any C&D activity during the 2014/15 period due to a reduction in activity in the mining sector. The Central Goldfields Sub- catchment Area achieved 0% landfill diversion for C&D waste with all of this waste stream generated in the Sub-catchment Area being disposed of to public or on-site landfills.

12.4 Waste Priorities

As part of the Study, respondents were asked to provide their views on what they believed to be the key waste management priorities in the Study Area, namely:

 Peak waste streams - waste streams that are considered to be peak to their organisation, based on annual quantities generated;  Problematic waste;  Waste management infrastructure gaps and opportunities; and  Market gaps and opportunities.

A key objective of this process was to capture and publish the key challenges across the waste sector, from generators through to public and private waste service providers so that these could be given TW15032 - Main duReporte consideration Draft.1c in future planning and the decision making processes from waste policy through to June 2016 |66 infrastructure and services.

Peak waste streams are those materials that are the highest quantities of waste generated each year identified through this Study. The top 15 material types equates to 235,816 tonnes, which is 92% of all waste generated within the Study Area in 2014/15. The largest peak waste stream was mixed refuse with 107,994 tonnes.

Month YYYY

Problematic waste refers to those waste materials that present issues to waste generators and/or managers due to a number of factors including the nature and characteristics of the materials, handling and transportation issues and lack of available markets.

Problematic wastes were identified by both Local Government Authorities and Waste Generator respondents. Some of the problematic wastes that Local Government Authorities highlighted included tyres, household hazardous waste and packaging materials. Waste Generators highlighted a number of similar problematic wastes like tyres and packaging materials, along with industry-specific wastes such as contaminated soils.

Lastly, respondents were asked to provide their views on waste infrastructure and market gaps in the Study Area as well as their proposed solutions. A key message communicated from numerous respondents was that there are limited waste management services in the region to treat problematic waste in a cost effective manner.

Talis undertook a review of the key waste management priorities identified by respondents and proposes a variety of solutions including:

 Amalgamation and commitment of waste tonnages;  Regional or joint tendering of waste management services; and  Further reporting of waste tonnages and priorities to the waste sector.

The amalgamation, or consolidation, and commitment of waste tonnages refers to waste generators, as well as local governments, collaboratively working together to earmark their waste in a consolidated manner in order to offer it to market. The thinking behind such a solution is that greater waste tonnages will be more attractive to markets than individual small-scale contracts.

13 Recommendations

Talis recognises that this Study as a very important first step in the regional collaboration on waste management initiatives within the Region through all sectors of the waste industry working together to collect and publish data on waste generation, materials flows and treatment activities. This data will greatly assist all key decision makers across the waste sector, from generators, Local Governments and Private Waste Service Providers to make informed decisions on future waste planning exercises as well as, services and infrastructure investments.

Leveraging from this significant Study and its associated findings, Talis provides the following recommendations to GEMG and the wider waste sector stakeholders to further advance the waste management systems across the Region, set out in Table 13-1.

Table 13-1: Recommendations

Recommendations Responsibility

Local Governments continues to work collaboratively on waste management issues across the Region and look to establish a formal Regional Local Government Forum to progress regional waste management initiatives, potentially using an existing forum, such as Goldfields Voluntary Regional Organisation of Councils (GVROC). Specific initiatives may include: o Amalgamation of waste tonnages from multiple LGAs to provide Local Governments economies of scale with potential for regional or joint tendering for waste management services, such as mobile plant for Greenwaste processing, tyre recycling, inert material crushing; and o Knowledge sharing and further reporting on tonnages and priorities to the waste sector. Waste Generators should look to establish a formal Regional forum to collaborate and progress regional waste management initiatives and priorities, which may include: o Commitment from multiple waste generators to amalgamate waste Waste Generators tonnages to provide economies of scale with potential for regional or joint tendering for waste management service; and o Knowledge sharing and further reporting on tonnages and priorities to the waste sector. Both Groups should collaborate together on regional waste management issues All and initiatives such as joint group meetings, data and knowledge sharing. Continued collation and sharing of waste generation and treatment data across TW15032 - Main Report Draft.1c All June 2016 |68 the region to facilitate the above initiatives. All stakeholders should consider the adoption of a Waste Classification System to provide a framework for consistent data gathering and reporting across All the Region. As part of this process, consideration should be given to the Waste Classification System utilised in this Study.

Draft recommendations were presented at the GEMG Workshop in May 2016 and were subsequently revised as part of the consultation process.

Data Collection Sheet - Explanatory notes

Goldfields Environmental Management Group Oct-15

Introduction The Western Australian Waste Strategy: Creating the Right Environment (2012) (the Waste Strategy) acknowledges the state faces unique challenges in managing waste in regional and remote areas, such as the Goldfields, due to difficulties in areas such as transport, infrastructure, access to markets and funding.

The Waste Strategy recognises that appropriate planning and development of waste infrastructure is needed as early as possible, particularly in the regional and remote areas of the State. The objectives of the Study are to: • Improve waste management systems in the Region; and • Collect and publish data to: • Support policy development • Assist waste infrastructure planning • Guide investment

A Waste Data and Priorities Study has been initiated for the Goldfields Region (the Study Area) by the Goldfields Environmental Management Group (GEMG).

To assist in the gathering and reporting of waste data, a Data Collection Sheet (DCS) has been developed for the project. Different versions of the DCS have been developed for local governments, waste generators and private waste management service providers. The DCS was developed to achieve the following objectives:

1. Reflect existing waste management practices to allow mapping of waste management activities; 2. Identify the sector of the economy from which the waste is generated, to inform future analysis and policy development; 3. Cover ‘cradle to grave’ as much as possible; 4. Maintain relevance to waste generation within the whole of Western Australia; 5. Ensure the system is user-friendly; 6. Minimise the potential for double counting; and 7. Allow industry to nominate their priorities across the Region.

A description of the DCS Structure and user process is provided below.

The DCS Structure The following gives a breakdown of the DCS structure according to sheet name tabs within the DCS.

Respondent's Details This sheet of the DCS requires the Respondent to complete details including basic contact information, information on your waste facilities and, for local government, details regarding current population and predicted future population of your area. Data on future growth is to be used in projecting future waste streams in the Study Area.

Waste Registry The Waste Registry sheet covers the generation and/or management of waste and includes sections on Source, Quantity, Collection, Processing/Disposal and, if relevant, Transfer Facilities. These sections cover the quantity and management of each waste stream generated by the Respondent. The Source section of the sheet requires the user to fill in details relating to the source of all relevant waste materials and the type of waste material that has been generated from this source. The red, blue and green columns of this segment are coloured to correspond with the Waste Classification System (WCS) (see below) that has been developed for the Study. A copy of the WCS, along with a separate WCS Explanatory Guide has been included in the DCS for reference when completing this section. If possible, please provide data from the last full financial year.

DCS Waste Facility Outputs This sheet of the DCS requires the Respondent to provide data related to any waste management facilities over which they have operational control. Data is required on the outputs of these facilities including waste residues (e.g. non recyclable waste, sludges) or products that have economic value e.g. recycling building products or separated recyclables.

Priorities This section invites Respondents to highlight the priorities that are important to your organisation in relation to waste management. This is the least prescriptive section of the DCS. We are seeking Respondent's views on: ·Problematic waste streams; ·Peak waste streams; ·Waste infrastructure gaps; and ·Market gaps.

Data Collection Sheet - Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Waste Classification System (WCS) A WCS was developed for the study to assist with the gathering and reporting of data. The DCS has two sheets relating to the WCS. The first is an explanatory guide and the second sheet contains details of the WCS. The WCS and DCS have matching colours in order to help explain the coding process.

DCS Methodology The DCS are design to be filled in any manner that is deemed easiest for the Respondent. The electronic format of the DCS contains definitions and descriptions of appropriate columns. These are found by hovering the mouse pointer over the relevant column heading. Many columns also contain drop-down menus of potential inputs, which should be utilised as much as possible.

Confidentiality All data collected will be regarded as confidential and only used for the purpose of this Study. Preliminary discussions have identified potential benefits in releasing the raw data of Respondents. This may only be undertaken with the consent of individual Respondents. Please select your preferences at the bottom of the the Respondent's Details sheet.

Upon Completion Return completed Data Collection Sheets to Talis Consultants, the Study's Data Custodians. The preferred method is via email: [email protected]. Please get in contact with Tess Murray or any of the project team should you have any queries or concerns. Please return your completed DCS by Friday, 20th November 2015.

Data Collection Sheet - Goldfields Waste Data and Priorities Study Waste Management Priorities This section invites Respondents to highlight the priorities that are important to your organisation in relation to waste streams, infrastructure and markets. In detail, we are seeking information on the following: ·Problematic waste streams - Please let us know which waste streams are problematic for your organisation within the Region. ·Peak waste streams - We would also like to know about your peak waste streams . ·Waste infrastructure gaps and opportunities - What are the waste infrastructure gaps in the Region? And what opportunities are there for improving the Region's waste infrastructure? ·Markets gaps and opportunities - Some regional areas lack local markets for recycled products and may be isolated to international markets due to the location. We would like your views on what the Goldfields lacks in terms of local markets for waste.

Any additional comments - please provide us with any additional Problematic Waste Streams Waste infrastructure - Gaps and Opportunities comments on waste management within the Region.

Do you consider there to be waste infrastructure gaps? If so, please tell us more about what (and Which waste stream(s) does your organisation consider to be problematic? where) you think these gaps are.

Why do you consider these to be problematic/failing? (please specify why for each waste stream, What opportunities are there for improvements for waste infrastructure in the Region? (i.e. particular as relevant) types of facilities, capacity required, locations, etc.)

In your/your organisation's opinion, what actions could be taken to resolve these issues?

Peak Waste Streams Market Gaps and Opportunities

What are your peak waste stream(s), based on annual quantities generated? (Please list) Do you consider there to be any market gaps in the Region? If so, what are they?

In your/your organisation's opinion, what solutions are there to reduce these peak waste What opportunities do you see there being which could advance access to local and international streams? (please specify which waste stream you are referring to if referring to multiple waste markets? streams above)
