Environmental Approval Process
The Minister for Environment approved the Pinjarra Efficiency Upgrade on 6 February 2004, based on the advice from the EPA.
The Department of Environment subsequently gave the green light to the Pinjarra Efficiency Upgrade, with Works Approval certification awarded on 19 April 2004.
In November 2003, Alcoa submitted an Environmental Protection Statement to the Environmental Protection Authority.
The Environmental Protection Statement (EPS) assists the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) to assess the environmental aspects of the project and to provide recommendations to the Minister on how these can be managed for the protection of the environment.
