ANVIL HILL COAL PROJECT APPROVED BY NSW PLANNING MINISTER

摘要

The Director-General was concerned to ensure that the proponent's GHG initiatives were certain and referable to clear targets. While stopping short of setting specific emission reduction targets, the Minister imposed conditions which require the proponent to: prepare and implement an Energy Savings Action Plan for the Project, monitor the GHG emissions generated by the Project, investigate ways to reduce GHG emissions generated by the Project, and report annually on its GHG monitoring and abatement measures. Notably, the monitoring, investigation and reporting obligations do not expressly include downstream GHG emissions.
