The Modification Request relates to the construction and operation of a hydrogen trailer unloading bay at Qenos’ existing Alkatuff Plant in the Botany Industrial Park (BIP), Matraville, in the Botany Bay local government area. The proposed unloading bay is proposed in response to a forecast change in the supplier of hydrogen, a raw material required for the manufacture of Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) at the Alkatuff Plant. The purpose of this Section 75W Modification Request is to describe and assess the potential construction and operational impacts of the proposed hydrogen trailer unloading bay. It outlines the potential impacts on the environment and identifies suitable mitigation measures, if required, to avoid or minimise potential environmental impacts as a result of the construction and operations of the proposed works. 1.1.1 Project Background Qenos is the sole manufacturer and supplier of polyethylene products in Australia, with operations at the BIP in Sydney, NSW and Altona, Victoria. Qenos’ operations at the BIP comprise three principal manufacturing plants: - Olefines Botany: produces approximately 250,000 tonnes per annum (tpa) of ethylene for Qenos’ two polyethylene plants also located within the BIP, as well as for domestic and international distribution; - Alkatuff Botany: produces over 120,000 tpa of polyethylene products (LLDPE and HDPE) for use in many applications including stretch wrapping, food packaging and rotational moulded products including water tanks; and - Alkathene Botany: produces approximately 70,000 tpa of low density polyethylene (LDPE), a moisture proof, flexible, transparent, heat sealable, hygienic and recyclable product. LDPE is used for the manufacture of plastic bags, film, moulded plastic products and linings for milk and juice cartons (Qenos, 2012). Hydrogen is a raw material used in the polyethylene manufacturing process at the Alkatuff plant to control the molecular weight and product properties of polyethylene by direct injection to the reactor cycle gas loop. Qenos currently sources hydrogen via Air Liquide, who currently utilises a hydrogen trailer unloading bay adjacent to Qenos’ Olefines plant. Air Liquide’s hydrogen supplies are primarily sourced from the crude oil refinery process at the Shell Refinery at Clyde, NSW as well as supplementary supplies from the Solvay Interox Pty Ltd (Solvay) hydrogen peroxide production facility in Banksmeadow, NSW. With the proposed redevelopment of the Shell Refinery to a finished product terminal only, the anticipated reduction in the capability of Air Liquide to continue to supply polymer grade hydrogen at existing quantities has prompted Qenos to prepare its operations at the Alkatuff plant to receive hydrogen from Coregas, an alternative bulk hydrogen supplier, who operates a steam reformer plant in Port Kembla, NSW. The introduction of an alternative hydrogen supplier has resulted in proposed construction and operation of a new hydrogen trailer unloading bay within the Alkatuff site to streamline manufacturing of polyethylene products. 1.2 Planning Approvals History Three key development consents have been granted and currently regulate the Alkatuff Plant and the use of the land on which it is located: - Development consent DA 2181 in relation to the construction and operation of the original Alkatuff Plant; - Development consent DA 35/97 in relation to the upgrade of the Alkatuff Plant and the subsequent modification; and - Development consent DA 30/98 in relation to the subdivision of the Botany Industrial Park (BIP), in which the Alkatuff Plant is located. 17 May 2012 AECOM Hydrogen Trailer Unloading Bay 2 Section 75W Modification Request 1.2.1 Development Consent DA 2181 – Construction and Operation of a Linear Low Density Polyethylene Plant (Alkatuff Plant) On 5 February 1990, the then Minister for Urban Affairs and Planning granted development consent under the then section 101 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 for the construction and operation of a LLDPE plant (Alkatuff Plant) at Lot ,1 DP608153 (now Lot 10, DP 1039919), 10-20 Beauchamp Road, Hillsdale (DA 2181). The approval, granted to ICI Australia Operations Pty Ltd, allowed for the construction and subsequent operation of the LLDPE plant, and the installation of associated infrastructure required for the manufacturing process at a capital cost of approximately $105 million, including: - Storage tanks for raw materials; - A catalyst storage area; - An additive storage building; - The main processing area, comprising a reactor and pelleting facility; - A warehouse containing a product packaging facility; - Bulk storage silos for storage of product; - Raw material and product loading/unloading bays; - An amenities block; - An administration and workshop building; - A laboratory and control room; - A wastewater treatment plant; - A stormwater separation system; and - Two electrical substations.

Copying of any part of this thesis is prohibited for two years from the date this statement was signed; after that time limited copying is permitted in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Karen A. Johnson iii iv Abstract Relationships between plants and their pollinators are thought to have played a major role in the morphological diversification of angiosperms. The epacrids (subfamily Styphelioideae) comprise more than 550 species of woody plants ranging from small prostrate shrubs to temperate rainforest emergents. Their range extends from SE Asia through Oceania to Tierra del Fuego with their highest diversity in Australia. The overall aim of the thesis is to determine the relationships between epacrid floral features and potential pollinators, and assess the evolutionary status of any pollination syndromes. The main hypotheses were that flower characteristics relate to pollinators in predictable ways; and that there is convergent evolution in the development of pollination syndromes.

    Attachment B Modern Movement Architecture in Central Sydney Heritage Study Review Modern Movement Architecture in Central Sydney Heritage Study Review Prepared for City of Sydney Issue C x January 2018 Project number 13 0581 Modern Movement in Central Sydney x Heritage Study Review EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This study was undertaken to provide a contextual framework to improve understanding post World War II and Modern Movement architecture and places in Central Sydney, which is a significant and integral component of its architectural heritage. Findings x The study period (1945-1975) was an exciting and challenging era that determined much of the present physical form of Central Sydney and resulted in outstanding architectural and civic accomplishments. x There were an unprecedented number of development projects undertaken during the study period, which resulted in fundamental changes to the physical fabric and character of Central Sydney. x The buildings are an historical record of the changing role of Australia in an international context and Sydney’s new-found role as a major world financial centre. Surviving buildings provide crucial evidence of the economic and social circumstances of the study period. x Surviving buildings record the adaptation of the Modern Movement to local conditions, distinguishing them from Modern Movement buildings in other parts of the world. x The overwhelming preponderance of office buildings, which distinguishes Central Sydney from all other parts of NSW, is offset by the presence of other building typologies such as churches, community buildings and cultural institutions. These often demonstrate architectural accomplishment. x The triumph of humane and rational urban planning can be seen in the creation of pedestrian- friendly areas and civic spaces of great accomplishment such as Australia Square, Martin Place and Sydney Square.
