˃ Production to date - 2017˃ 225 000 tonnes against consent limit of 500 000 tonnes

˃ Site activities˃ 6 blasts this year, next blast scheduled for Monday 4 December

˃ Major shut down during Christmas from 11 December to 29 January

˃ Mobile crusher to be brought in for month of January

˃ Major overhaul to our primary jaw crusher

˃ Screen 3 replacement during Easter 2018

˃ Site safety record˃ Currently highest Country NSW quarry site for reporting of hazards – great safety outcome

General operations update

˃ Barton Hwy-Kaveneys Rd intersection continues to perform well two years into

use.˃ Nil issues reported by our Boral drivers

˃ Community feedback – is it still working well for you?

˃ A reminder that we encourage the reporting of any inappropriate driver behaviour

associated with the quarry. ˃ Important to make a timely report so that we can take immediate action

˃ Helpful details include time/place of incident, colour of vehicle involved, direction of travel,

registration, fleet number

˃ For Boral Fleet vehicles, we can review

electronic monitoring to verify any reports

˃ Action can and has been taken in instances of

wrongdoing – Driver Code of Conduct forms part

of Boral employment, standards written into

customer supply agreements.

General operations update

˃ In considering the quarry’s future, we’ve identified that a modification to our

planning consent may be required during 2018.

˃ The potential modification relates to our overburden emplacements at the site. ˃ Overburden refers to the topsoil, sub-soil, vegetation and other material separating the surface

from the hard rock resource

˃ A lot of overburden is being generated by the operations at present

˃ Our consent identifies where we can emplace the overburden, so as these areas

fill, we need to think about where else it can be put.˃ Currently assessing options for new emplacements when required.

˃ If new emplacement areas are needed, we’ll

need to apply to Yass Valley Council to

modify the consent.˃ Expected to require the compilation of a Statement

of Environmental Effects (SEE)

˃ Would include the usual period for public comment

˃ We’ll update you once anything gets

moving on this process. ˃ Newsletters, extra community meeting if required

Helping our community – Terroux Observatory

˃ During May, we were contacted by Michael from the Terroux Observatory, a small

facility approximately 3km south-west of the quarry in Wallaroo.˃ Facility opened in September 2014

˃ Involved in scientific research and ‘deep space’ astrophotography programs

˃ Instrumental in finding a new galaxy and ‘ejector shells’ around a star since opening

˃ Issue arose after quarry replaced some lights which hadn’t been serviced for

some time.˃ Light impacted observatory’s ability to view space due to casting of shadows

˃ Following contact, we purchased and installed seven day light timers which

switch on and off at set points, allowing Observatory to plan their viewing.˃ Completed within two weeks of initial contact

˃ Quarry is now the talk of the astrological

community!˃ Example demonstrates we are more than happy to

try and accommodate our neighbours when our

operations unduly influence them.
