Maddingley gets approval to receive toxic soil in Bacchus Marsh

230204 01 The door has been opened for toxic soil to be dumped in Bacchus Marsh following approval of an Environment Management Plan (EMP) for Maddingley Brown Coal. The EMP was submitted by Western Soil Treatment (WST) as part of its application to receive tunnel boring machine spoil from the West Gate Tunnel Project. Environment Protection Authority Victoria approved the plan today after determining there were appropriate measures to keep the environment and community safe. EPA said it assessed the plan for potential environmental impacts, such as runoff, odour, and potential land, surface water and groundwater risks. Under government regulations, the owner of a site bidding to receive the spoil must develop an EMP and comply with specific conditions including constructing an appropriate containment system and managing spoil appropriately, so risks are controlled.
