Overview March 19 Ewen Maddock Dam Is One of Several Dams in South East Queensland Scheduled to Be Upgraded As Part of Our O
Overview March 19 Ewen Maddock Dam is one of several dams in South East Queensland scheduled to be upgraded as part of our ongoing Dam Improvement Program. The upgrade work is set to begin from July 2019 and will include strengthening the existing embankment and raising the dam wall to increase its floodwater capacity. Work is expected to take up to 18 months, subject to weather conditions and other unexpected delays. About the Dam Ewen Maddock Dam is part of the SEQ Water Grid – a connected network of dams, treatment plants, reservoirs and pipelines supplying drinking water to the region. The dam was constructed across Addlington Creek, a tributary of the Mooloolah River. Construction of the dam was completed in 1976 and the full supply level (FSL) was raised in 1982. Following the independent dam safety review in 2010, a number of improvements were identified at Ewen Maddock Dam and approved for delivery in two stages. In 2012, the stage one upgrade of the dam involved the installation of pressure relief wells into the foundation materials, and construction of a sand filter buttress and overlying weighting berm made of clay along the downstream embankment toe. In 2016, Seqwater engaged an engineering consultant to develop the second stage of the upgrade design. More than twenty-one options were identified during this process. About the Dam Safety Upgrade On 1 February 2019, the Minister for Natural Resources, Mines and Energy, Dr Anthony Lynham, announced the project will begin in 2019. The media release can be read here. http://statements.qld.gov.au/Statement/2019/2/1/20m-upgrade-work- for-ewen-maddock-dam The 2019 - 2020 stage two upgrade option will: • add sand filters to the existing earthfill embankment • raise the embankment height with a parapet wall, to increase flood capacity • strengthen the concrete spillway • raise the training walls of the spillway • install emergency outlets in the spillway to enable reservoir drawdown in the case of a dam safety incident. -

The statement covers all sites owned or operated by CS Energy (as outlined on page 6) for the financial year ending 30 June 2020. In FY2020, CS Energy spent more than $575 million on goods and services from almost 1,200 vendors. We recognise that a business with this procurement spend has an important role to play in helping to prevent modern slavery. Our immediate focus in FY2020 was to gain an understanding of the modern slavery risks in our supply chains and to establish processes for addressing those risks, with our analysis concluding that the risk in our supply chain is low. -

NRG Energy Successful in Bid for Flinders Power in South Australia
NRG Energy Successful in Bid for Flinders Power in South Australia August 2, 2000 MINNEAPOLIS, Aug 02, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE)---NRG Energy, Inc. (NYSE:NRG) announced today it has been named the successful bidder in the South Australian Government's electricity privatization auction for Flinders Power, South Australia's final generation company to be privatized. NRG agreed to pay (Aus.) $313 million ($180 million U.S.) cash for a 100-year lease of the Flinders Power assets. Flinders Power includes two power stations totaling 760 megawatts (MW), the Leigh Creek coal mine 175 miles north of the power stations, a dedicated rail line between the two, and Leigh Creek township. The lease agreement also includes managing the long-term fuel supply and power purchase agreement for the 180-MW Osborne Cogeneration Station. NRG expects to close the transaction in early September. "Flinders gives NRG a strong position in the vibrant South Australian power market," said Keith G. Hilless, NRG Asia-Pacific managing director and CEO. The power stations are the 240-MW Playford Power Station and the 520-MW Northern Power Station, both located in Port Augusta on the Spencer Gulf--approximately 190 miles north of South Australia's capital city, Adelaide. The Playford and Northern power stations use pulverized coal-fired steam turbine generation technology. Northern is a baseload facility and is the lowest-cost generator in South Australia, while Playford is a peaking facility. "Flinders Power confirms our long-term commitment to the Australian power generation market," commented David H. Peterson, chairman, president and CEO of NRG. "This project is right in line with NRG's strategy of acquiring assets that complement our core portfolio and represent a variety of dispatch levels." Flinders Power, which NRG will operate, is the only generator in South Australia to own its own fuel source. -

Referral of Proposed Action
Referral of proposed action Project title: Cross River Rail 1 Summary of proposed action 1.1 Short description The Cross River Rail project is a proposed new 10.2 kilometre rail link in Brisbane connecting Dutton Park in the south to Bowen Hills in the north. The project will include 5.9 kilometres of twin rail tunnels (one track in each direction) under Brisbane’s inner city and new underground rail stations at Albert Street and Roma Street (in the Brisbane CBD), Woolloongabba, Boggo Road and a new surface station at the Exhibition showgrounds. Upgrades and enhancements to parts of the existing rail network will be delivered where these interface with the project and to support Cross River Rail operations. READING NOTE: The Cross River Rail project has previously (2010) been referred to the then Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and Arts under reference number 2010/5427. The project was determined to be ‘not a controlled action - if undertaken in a particular manner’. Further planning and design has been undertaken since the original Cross River Rail concept was referred. This has resulted in a modified project of a smaller scale with reduced potential impacts and enhanced affordability. This referral has been prepared as a new referral based on key changes to the project resulting from further planning and design. The referral has been prepared as a stand-alone document that can be assessed without having to reference the previous referral. While the Cross River Rail proponent does not consider the proposed action likely to have a significant impact on a matter protected under the EPBC Act, this referral has also been prepared in light of the CRR 2010 EPBC decision including a number of particular manner conditions that require reassessment. -
