Metropolitan Coal was granted approval for the Metropolitan Coal Project (the Project) under section 75J of the New South Wales (NSW) Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979 (EP&A Act) on 22 June 2009. A copy of the Project Approval is available on the Peabody website (http://www.peabodyenergy.com). The Project comprises the continuation, upgrade and extension of underground coal mining operations and surface facilities at Metropolitan Coal. The underground mining longwall layout is shown on Figure 1. The extent of the mines Major Surface Facilities Area is shown on Figure 2. In March 2011, Metropolitan Coal submitted a Project Approval Modification Request to the NSW Minister for Planning & Infrastructure (now the Department of Planning and Environment [DP&E]) under Section 75W of the EP&A Act to modify the Project to allow for a combined limit for coal and coal reject truck movements and changes to the amount of product coal to be trucked off-site. The modification was approved by the Director-General (now Secretary) on 2 July 2011. In January 2016, Metropolitan Coal requested the DP&E confirm that the transport of coal reject material to the Lendlease Calderwood Urban Development Project near Albion Park would be generally in accordance with the Project Approval. In February 2016, the DP&E indicated that it supported the proposed sustainable and beneficial re-use of the coal reject and did not object to the trucking of coal reject to the Calderwood Urban Development Project on condition that the trucking is undertaken in accordance with the approved trucking limits and adheres to the current trucking route from the Major Surface Facilities Area to the Princes Motorway (Figure 3). In May 2018, Metropolitan Coal requested the DP&E confirm that the transport of coal reject material to urban developments in the Wollongong and Shellharbour Local Government Areas (LGAs) for beneficial reuse would be generally in accordance with the Project Approval. The DP&E (May 2018) indicated that it supports the additional sustainable and beneficial reuse of coal rejects in accordance with the approved trucking limits/trucking route conditions described above. In October 2018, Metropolitan Coal requested the DP&E confirm that the transport of product coal to the Manildra Group’s flour mill in Nowra (Figure 3) would be generally in accordance with the Project Approval. In December 2018, DP&E indicated that the transport of product coal to the Manildra Group’s flour mill in Nowra is generally in accordance with the Project Approval, given the product coal trucking movements would occur instead of trucking product coal to the Coalcliff Cokeworks which is permitted under Condition 19(e) of Schedule 4 of the Project Approval. 1.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE This Traffic Management Plan (TMP) has been prepared for the Project in accordance with Condition 22, Schedule 4 of the Project Approval. The primary aim of the TMP is to minimise the traffic impacts of the Project on the residential areas and schools within Helensburgh. The relationship of this TMP to the Metropolitan Coal Environmental Management Structure is shown on Figure 4. Section 3.1 outlines other Approval Conditions of relevance to the TMP. This includes a requirement to conduct a Road Safety Audit of the Mine Access Road and Parkes Street intersection in accordance with Condition 17, Schedule 4 of the Project Approval. The Road Safety Audit is described in Section 8.1. Metropolitan Coal is required to implement the Road Safety Audit recommendations to the satisfaction of the Secretary.
