Portland Aluminium Continues Community Consultation
PORTLAND--January 17, 2001--
Portland Aluminium will embark on a fresh round of community
consultation when it meet members of the public this Thursday as part of
its environmental planning process.
As well as helping to build valuable relationships with the community,
the meeting will provide Portland Aluminium with input into its
environmental improvement plan, according to Operations Manager Trevor
Adams.
"Each year Portland Aluminium intends to prepare an Environmental
Improvement Plan that details responsibilities and a schedule for all
major environmental activities for the coming year. We consider
community consultation to be a very important part of the planning
process," Mr Adams said.
Direct neighbours and key leaders of community organisations have been
invited to attend the meeting.
Mr Adams added that preparing an Environmental Improvement Plan is a key
component of Portland Aluminium's 2000 aim of becoming an accredited
licensee with the Environment Protection Authority.
Victoria’s Environment Protection Authority awards accredited licences
to companies that demonstrate they have sound environmental management
systems, robust environmental audit programs and continuous
environmental improvement plans in place.
