Upgrading the groundwater monitoring network

Part of this work has included a groundwater impact assessment for Resource Strategies on behalf of Hunter Valley Energy Coal Pty Ltd.

In addition, we have been engaged directly by Mt Arthur Coal to plan and implement an upgrade to the existing groundwater monitoring network. This includes vibrating wire piezometer and monitoring bore installation, hydraulic testing and bore remediation works.

We have also completed routine reporting to address conditions of mine approval, which includes annual groundwater reviews and trigger investigations.
