4 1.0 INTRODUCTION On the 31 st January 2007 a Section 3(A) modification was approved by the Department of Planning for Glennies Creek Coal Mine - Surface Facilities Project (now Integra Underground). In accordance with the conditions of approval, specifically condition 11 of schedule 3, an Air Quality Monitoring Program (AQMP) was prepared. The Air Quality Monitoring Program may also be defined as the Air Quality Management Plan for the site. The AQMP includes an air quality monitoring protocol for evaluating compliance with the air quality impact assessment criteria. 2.0 OBJECTIVES The main objective of the AQMP is to establish an air quality monitoring protocol in which to evaluate compliance with relevant criteria. The AQMP aims to ensure that emissions from the approved mining operation do not result in unacceptable impacts on the environment and surrounding community. It focuses on the strategies used to monitor air quality surrounding the mine lease area including, particulate emissions, mitigation of emissions at the source, monitoring, reviewing the monitoring results in terms of the approved impact criteria specified in the project approval conditions and reporting. Air quality issues can also arise from odours generated from activities such as vehicle or equipment emissions and spontaneous combustion. However, odour issues have not been a historical problem at the site and therefore no definitive monitoring or evaluation of odour has been included in this AQMP. In developing a monitoring protocol for particulates, the requirements stated in the Environmental Assessment, project approval consent conditions and Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) Environmental Protection Licence (EPL) have all been considered. The AQMP recognises that there will inevitably be some emissions of particulates from the mine and the plan includes the implementation of management practices to minimise the impact of these emissions on the environment and the community. Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
5 3.0 RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER PLANS In accordance with Schedule 5 Condition 1 of the Project Approval, an Environmental Management Strategy (EMS) and Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMP) will be prepared for the site. The AQMP will form part of the EMP and support the overall environmental objectives outlined in the EMS. 4.0 BACKGROUND 4.1 Project Overview Integra Underground is an underground coal mine located approximately 10km north west of Singleton in the Hunter Valley, NSW Figure 1. Integra Underground abuts the northern boundary of the Integra Open Cut Coal Lease with access to the underground lease (CL 382) provided from the north-western highwall of the former Camberwell Coal Open Cut North Pit. Support facilities are located adjacent the highwall entry area and the surface facilities area is adjacent to the former Oak Park School (both within ML 1437). All coal produced from the mine is transported through the Integra Coal Open Cut and processed and despatched from the Integra Coal Operations Coal Handling and Preparation Plant. Within the surrounding vicinity of Integra Underground, four other active mines exist, including the adjoining Integra Coal Open Cut, Ashton Coal (3 km west north west), Mt Owen Mine (5km north west) and Rixs Creek Mine (3km south). 4.2 The Approved Development The 2007 Section 3(A) approval allows for the construction and/or use of surface facilities associated with the Glennies Creek underground coal mine. The 3(A) application proposal included: continued use of all existing mine-related surface facilities and infrastructure; and construction and operation of additional surface facilities, including: various facilities at the Pit Top Area, including: demountable bathhouse building; sealed extension of the car park; Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
6 coal handling system; stores compound; additional underground water supply tank; extension of the existing electrical substation; demountable office and crib room buildings and associated facilities; extension to coal stockpile areas; ballast delivery and stockpile area at the Forest Road Ventilation Shaft Area; and additional gas drainage boreholes at the Gas Drainage Borehole Area clarification of the existing facilities within the contractor s area; addition of a transportable toilet block; and installation of a portal-framed workshop building. The approval allows the consolidation of all existing and proposed surface facilities associated with the Glennies Creek underground coal mine into a single, contemporary approval. The AQMP was prepared to meet the conditions of consent applicable to the 2007 Section 3(A) approval. 4.3 Existing Air Quality Monitoring Integra Underground previously installed two High Volume Air Samplers (HVAS) monitoring fine particulates (PM 10 ) in anticipation of monitoring and data requirements required for future operations. The two PM 10 monitors will continue to be utilised for collection of air quality data. Integra Coal Open Cut currently monitors Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) and dust deposition, to the appropriate Australian Standards, in areas surrounding Integra Underground. A previously established agreement with Integra Coal Open Cut, to supply air quality data and a selection of sites meeting the requirements of the AQMP, will continue to be utilised. 4.4 Potential Particulate Emission Sources Potential particulate emission sources from the current mining operations are listed below and include: - Stockpiling of topsoil and gravels; Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
7 - Spreading topsoil and ameliorants on rehabilitation areas; - General road traffic on paved and unpaved roads; - Transferring coal onto linked conveyors at the underground mine; - Loading and transporting coal by truck or conveyor; - Unloading coal to the run of mine stockpiles; - Wind erosion from exposed land and stockpiles; - Combustion engine exhaust; - Underground ventilation fan exhaust; - Construction activities; - Maintenance of fire breaks and asset protection zones; - Clearing of vegetation; and - Bushfire. 4.5 Underground Ventilation Fan The Integra Underground ventilation fan can emit particulates and odour from underground mining operations. Under normal operating conditions emissions from the fan are considered to be minor and specific monitoring requirements are not required by the project approval conditions. The Mt Owen and Ashton Coal projects are located adjacent to the ventilation fan site to the south west, west and north. The air quality monitoring network to the south east and east will assist in monitoring any particulate impacts from the fan on the community. 4.6 Local Weather Conditions Typical of other areas in the Hunter valley, a marked seasonal variation occurs with the prevalent winds in summer and autumn being from the south east and in winter from the north west. Winds in spring are reasonably evenly distributed between the north westerly and south easterly directions (Epps and Associates 1989) 4.7 Impacted Areas As discussed, any air quality impacts surrounding the mine will be primarily from particulates. The degree of impact will be influenced by the source, success of mitigation measures and the prevailing winds. Modelling has determined that impacts will be minor (EA 2006) and previous air quality monitoring has shown that results are currently well within project Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
8 approval air quality criteria. Due to prevailing winds, the impacts will be greatest along the SE NW wind axis. The predominant wind axis map showing the location of mine facilities is presented in Figure 1. Rural residences exist to the north west and the south east of the mine. Other areas are unlikely to be impacted by particulate emissions from Integra Coal Underground due to the prevailing winds and predicted low particulates emission rates. In all cases, the air quality impacts from Integra Underground will be assessed and mitigated to ensure particulate levels do not exceed the impact assessment criteria provided in the project approval conditions.

20 9.1 Dust Gauges - Depositional Dust The dust deposition gauges (DG) will be operated to monitor insoluble solids as defined by AS/NZS :2003 Methods for Sampling and Analysis of Ambient Air, Determination of Particulates Deposited Matter Gravimetric method. Samples will be collected every 30 +/- 2 days. Samples are additionally analysed for ash residue to the Australian Standard in order to assist in determining possible contamination and dust source. The monitoring will also meet the requirements of the DEC (EPA) approved methods. The dust deposition gauges will provide deposited dust as insoluble solids, in g/m 2.month. The analysis will be performed at an accredited National Association Testing Authority (NATA) laboratory. Samples will be tracked from field sampling to final analysis by completion of a field sheet and Chain of Custody (COC) documentation. The general sampling process for the dust deposition gauges is displayed as a flow chart in Figure 3. Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27

22 9.2 High Volume Air Sampling PM 10 and TSP Integra Underground will utilise two (2) PM 10 High Volume Air Samplers (HVAS) and two (2) TSP HVAS which sample ambient air for a period of 24 hours every six days in accordance with AS :2003 Methods for sampling and analysis of ambient air. Method 9.6: Determination of suspended particulate matter PM 10 high volume sampler with size selective inlet - Gravimetric method, AS :2003 Methods for sampling and analysis of ambient air. Method 9.3: Determination of suspended particulate matter Total Suspended Particulate matter (TSP) high volume sampler gravimetric method and the DEC sampling schedule. The monitoring will also meet the requirements of the DEC (EPA) approved methods. The analysis will be performed at an accredited National Association Testing Authority (NATA) laboratory. Samples will be tracked from field sampling to final analysis by completion of a field sheet and Chain of Custody (COC) documentation. The general sampling procedure is shown in Figure 4. The HVAS will provide particulate concentrations in µg/m 3 calculated at 0 degrees C and 101.3kPa. Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
23 Step 1 Operate the TSP and PM10 HVAS in their existing locations to AS AS and AS Install HVAS monitoring filters in HVAS. Complete the field sheet recording the date sample was installed, name of field technician who installed, name of location, initial flow rate and initial run time. Step 2 Program HVAS to sample on correct day from midnight to midnight for 24 hours. Step 3 Within 5 days of run day, collect filters. This is completed by: manually running the HVAS and completing the field sheet, recording date sample was collected, name of field technician who collected, name of location and project, final flow rate and final run time. Repeat Steps 1-3 for all HVAS run events. Step 4 After the last run in a month, transport the collected samples to a NATA laboratory with chain of custody and relinquish samples. Step 5 Receive results from laboratory and prepare relevant reports. Step 6 Ensure HVAS are calibrated every 2 months or when moved or flow has changed from set point and ensure the PM10 impaction plate is cleaned and the impact plate surface treatment is applied to manufacturer s specifications Figure 4: Flow chart for HVAS field sampling, analysis and reporting.

24 9.3 Meteorological Monitoring A meteorological station was installed on the Integra Coal pit top area in November 2006 to monitor and record temperature, humidity, rainfall, windspeed and direction. The station is used to monitor immediate weather conditions at the pit top but is impacted from the adjacent Integra Open Cut overburden emplacements. The Integra Open Cut meteorological station provides better weather data in a regional context and will be used for back up data and any requirement for future air quality modelling purposes. The Integra Open Cut meteorological station is operated in accordance with the requirements in the Approved Methods for Sampling of Air Pollutants in New South Wales (DEC). If required, the Bureau of Meteorology station at Singleton will be used for additional backup data REPORTING AND REVIEW OF AIR QUALITY MONITORING DATA The Integra Underground Safety and Environmental Advisor will review all air quality monitoring results on a monthly basis and ensure corrective action is taken where results or trends indicate non compliance or risk of future non compliance to the project approval impact assessment criteria. The results will also be included in the Annual Environmental Management Report (AEMR). The AEMR will include a summary of monitoring results during the past year, comparison against the air quality impact criteria, summary of previous years monitoring results and comparison against predictions in the EIS and SEE. The AEMR will also identify any trends in air quality impacts and identify any non conformance over the year as well as describing any actions currently implemented or planned to ensure compliance with the air quality impact criteria. The AEMR will be available to the relevant authorities including the Department of Planning and the Department of Primary Industries (DMR) and the Community Consultative Committee. It will also be placed on the company s website along with a summary of environmental monitoring results. Monitoring results will be updated on the company s website at least every 6 months. The DEC (EPA) will be provided with an annual return, statement of compliance and a monitoring and complaints summary. Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
25 11.0 MITIGATION MEASURES AND CORRECTIVE ACTION Integra Underground employs various measures which mitigate against air quality impacts. Coal stockpiles are sprayed for dust suppression and roads are kept moist with the deployment of a 24 hour dedicated water cart. Site speed limits are reduced to limit dust emission from vehicles. Excessive dust events are reported to the control room for corrective action and dust management procedures and protocols and emphasized during the employees and contractors induction process. Dust is controlled on the internal coal haul road from Integra Underground to Integra Open Cut Coal Handling and Preparation Plant with a 777 water cart operated by Integra Open Cut. Rehabilitation of exposed areas from previous open cut mining on the site is progressing and will reduce the potential for wind blown dust. The majority of the site is stable and does not generate excessive dust EXCEEDANCE OF AIR QUALITY CRITERIA If air quality monitoring reveals that as a direct result of Integra Undergrounds operation, the particulate levels have exceeded the criteria outlined in Section 8 Air Quality Criteria Integra Underground will conduct an investigation into the source of the particulates. The investigation will consider any plant operation or other factors that may have generated excessive levels of particulates. The report will be provided to the any affected landowner and/or existing or future tenants, including tenants of mine owned properties and the Director-General Department of Planning The report will: (a) describe the date, time and nature of the exceedence/ incident; (b) identify the cause (or likely cause) of the exceedence/ incident; (c) describe what action has been taken to date; and (d) describe the proposed measures to address the exceedence/incident. Integra Underground will follow recommendations of the investigation in order to abate particulate emissions from the mine. Quarterly reports will be provided to each affected party and the Director-General until the results show compliance to project approval criteria. Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
26 12.1 Independent Review If a landowner considers the project to be exceeding the impact assessment criteria, Table 6, then they may ask Integra Underground in writing for an independent review of the impacts of the project on their land. There are detailed procedures in the project approval schedule 4 to progress and determine the independent review and these shall be followed by Integra Underground. The Integra Underground Safety and Environmental Advisor shall manage the independent review process for Integra Underground INDEPENDENT ENVIRONMENTAL AUDIT An Independent Environmental Audit will be conducted every 5 years. This will include a review of this document, air quality results and predicted impacts. The audit will be conducted by a suitably qualified person as agreed by the Director-General and if revisions are required from audit findings, this document will be resubmitted for approval as per schedule 5, condition 5 of the approval conditions. After the Independent Environmental Audit is completed, and if changes are recommended to the AQMP, Integra Underground shall review and if necessary revise the AQMP, to the satisfaction of the Director-General. The revised AQMP will be submitted to the Director- General within 6 months of completing the audit COMMUNITY COMPLAINT PROTOCOL Integra Underground records all complaints made by the community. For each complaint, the following information is recorded: Date and time of complaint; Method by which the complaint was made; Personal details of the complainant which were provided by the complainant or, if no such details were provided, a note to that effect; Nature of the complaint; The action(s) taken in relation to the complaint, including any follow-up contact with the complainant; and Noise Management Plan 0 01/03/ /03/ of 27
27 If no action was taken, the reason why no action was taken. Complaint records are kept for at least four years after the complaint was made and will be available to any authorised officer of the DEC who may require details. A summary of each complaint is provided in the AEMR COMMUNITY CONSULTATION Integra Underground will conduct community consultation via a Community Consultative Committee (CCC) with meetings held on a 6 monthly basis.
