Proposed water quality objectives

The proposed water quality objectives that have been developed for the discharge of extracted
groundwater from the site are provided in the Tables below. All water discharged from the site must
comply with the discharge criteria provided in Table 2. In addition, the receiving water quality within a
20 m radius of the discharge point entry to the receiving water shall comply with the receiving water
criteria provided in Table 3. Receiving waters data will be assessed against background monitoring data

if non-compliant results are obtained at the receiving waters monitoring location.
