Some more environmental stuff FWIW :
Tendinewa aside
(and it is a long way ‘aside’ from the MTMP project - with, as I understand it, AVL having had dibs on privately owned farmland {used for canola* growing}since far away and long ago).
It’s close to Geraldton and has a gas pipe going past so any processing plant may save on not having to accomodate workers, not pay too much to get gas connected
(I guess there’s plenty of other ‘shall we process at Tendinewa or process on site which Wood is fully into) .
And I think Stage 4 on the MTMP is imminent too.
In fact I had thought we might have already been in it :/.
But I guess they have to say on their web page when that happens and, as Hawk says all they said - last November 22 was :

Current Status:
Report and recommendations in preparation
The EPA had received a final update from Ian Prentice on November 15 covering all previously queries from the EPA (which had sent several people to the MTMP site last June) and also adding quite a few notes to relating areas which included both AVL and TMT ground
[ MTMP Environmental Review Document]
… Anyway it’s 369 pages long without the tens and tens of pages of references and appendices at the end and ai hope they make their recommendations to the minister soon !
cheers
