Site Based Management Plan
3.10 Emergency and Incident
3.10.1 Purpose
The notification of emergencies and incidences will be conducted according to this emergency and incident
management strategy. This strategy also addresses the record of all environmental events and other events likely to
have an adverse effect on the environmental performance of the development.
Contingency plans provide a guide to the formalisation of emergency procedures so that in the event of a cyclone, fire
or other emergency occurring, personnel are familiar with the correct action to take.
3.10.2 Operational Policy
Minimise environmental harm through the preparedness of appropriate response(s) in the event of an emergency or
incident.
3.10.3 Performance Targets
Provide adequate training, plant and equipment to effectively manage emergencies by on-site personnel.
Correct implementation of an emergency/incident response plan.
3.10.4 Implementation Strategy/Mitigation Measures
The definition of an environmental event (emergency or incident) will be documented and communicated to personnel
working for or on behalf of CSR. Environmental events will as a minimum include actual events or near messes
resulting in:
- a breach of legal & other requirements;
- environmental damage (e.g. over clearing);
- environmental pollution / contamination;
- unapproved impacts on vegetation, flora, fauna, waters, heritage sites and atmosphere;
- unapproved discharge to air, land and/or water; and

Conduct post emergency debriefs to include a review of the effectiveness of the plan, its implementation, and the
need for revisions.
