The Carmichael coal mine is located in the north Galilee Basin, Queensland, approximately 280km south of Townsville and 300km west of Mackay. The work scope included the construction of a water pipeline and procurement of associated pumping equipment & water storages.
The Narrabri project, although short in length and duration was very challenging due to the alignment of the pipeline being the middle of the Pilliga State Forrest, within an existing HDPE Water line corridor, with no new clearing allowed. The pipeline was subject to strict EIS conditions including minimising dust and erosion onsite. To manage the conditions an extensive erosion sediment control plan (ESCP) was designed and implemented.
