Review due: September 2014
4.0 Objective
The objective for waste is to prioritise the prevention and minimisation of waste
generation, followed by the effective management of wastes (storage, handling,
transport and disposal) in a manner that minimises impact on the environment,
while also being cost effective.
The QGC waste management hierarchy depicted in Figure 1, highlights the range
of options available to manage and dispose of waste, demonstrating the ranking
of the most preferred to least preferred options with regard to waste
management. This forms the foundation of the waste management system and is
in line with the Waste Reduction and Recycling Act 2011.

6.1
Waste Management System
6.1.1 Collection
Waste receptacles will be placed around the facility to collect general daily waste
and begin the segregation process. These receptacles will be labelled to indicate
the waste type for which they are intended. Generally they will be for nonhazardous and/or non-regulated waste such as general inert waste, putrescible
waste and recyclables. There will also be closed and contained receptacles for oily
rags. As the receptacles approach 80 % capacity they will be moved to the Waste
Transfer Area (WTA).
Some liquid wastes will be directly removed from the plant area via tanker (refer
Figure 2).
Upon generation, all other wastes, including dangerous goods and regulated
wastes, are to be moved directly to the WTA or Chemical Storage Building.
6.1.2 Storage and Handling
A WTA has been designated for the storage and handling of most waste from the
Facility. It is a controlled area adjacent to the Warehouse, and will be used to
stage and segregate waste according to the Waste Hierarchy prior to transport.
The location has been chosen due to proximity to the Warehouse and
Maintenance Building where a significant volume of waste will be generated and
away from the plant area.
Waste will be segregated into individual storage containers, which are
appropriately and clearly labelled for each waste type as indicated in Figure 2.
The Chemical Storage Building will contain a bunded waste storage area for
chemicals and solvents.
6.1.3 Transportation
Transportation will be undertaken by either QGC or an appropriately licenced
third party waste contractor as indicated in Figure 2. Transport from the LNG
Facility to the mainland will be on vehicles on the RORO ferries.
Regulated waste will only be transported to a recycling facility or disposal facility
by a contractor holding an Environmental Authority for Regulated Waste
Transport. If the waste is classified as dangerous goods, the Australian Code for
the Transport of Dangerous Goods by Road and Rail, 7th edition, (ADG Code), or
more recent versions should also be observed. QGC will evaluate contractors to
ensure tasks are carried out in accordance with relevant legislation and QGC
standards.

Review due: September 2014
6.1.4 Disposal
Anticipated end point for each of the identified wastes has been identified and
included in Figure 2 although these may change subject to further refinement of
waste management in practice and to availability of recycling or disposal facilities.
The nine end point categories are:
Reuse
There may be opportunity to reuse some material (potential waste products) in
their original form on site. For example; packaging, drums and paint.
Recycle
Recycling is the reprocessing of materials back into similar products or into
secondary raw materials for the production of new products. There are many
opportunities for recycling of wastes from the LNG Facility.
The opportunity for recycling in Gladstone is limited and some recyclable wastes
may be transported to Brisbane, depending on practicability.
Energy Recovery
Energy recovery is the process of extracting usable materials or energy from
waste. There are some opportunities for recovery of wastes from Curtis Island,
however a number of factors affect the practicability of adopting this method,
including limited energy recovery facilities in Gladstone.
General Waste Landfill
Remaining wastes that are unable to be avoided, reused or recycled will be
disposed to a landfill that holds an Environmental Authority for Waste Disposal
(engineered land disposal site) by a licensed contractor as a last-resort option.
Regulated Waste Landfill
Regulated waste will only be disposed at a landfill that holds an Environmental
Authority for Waste Disposal and can accept regulated waste.
Dangerous Goods
Each Dangerous Goods material will require separate assessment by the LEA and
Waste Management Contractors with key stakeholder engagement, including
Logistics Superintendent, Production Manager and LNG Operations HSSE Manager
to determine the most effective disposal method. Disposal methods may include,
however are not limited to; landfill, recycling, direct and indirect reuse or thermal
destruction with relevant compliance evaluations carried out to ensure final
receiving site’s authority to accept waste material/s.
Industrial Waste Water Facility
Each Industrial Waste Water will require separate assessment by the Waste
Management Contractors and review by the LEA with key stakeholder
engagement, including Logistics Superintendent, Production Manager and LNG
Operations HSSE Manager to determine the most effective disposal sites and
method.

On-site Disposal
Sediment excavated from the Stormwater Management Ponds may be disposed
in the Spoil Disposal Area within the north-western corner of the PFL.
Responsibility of Others
Some waste is generated as part of a proprietary system package such as the
ROBO Wash. This waste will be collected under stewardship of the supplier.
Potentially some waste streams generated on an infrequent basis during major
maintenance or shutdown activities may also be collected under stewardship of a
supplier or specialist contract, subject to confirmation of appropriate licensing for
transport and disposal of the waste streams.
Additionally, grey water and sewage will be piped along Gladstone Regional
Council’s Reticulation Infrastructure to their Gladstone Wastewater Treatment
Plant.
