Prospect Hill International was made aware this week that the Victorian Civil and Administration Tribunal (VCAT) has received an application regarding our proposed Energy from Waste facility at 164-200 McManus Road, Lara. This is in response to the recent approval of our application for a Development Licence by the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Victoria.
Prospect Hill International has undertaken the environmental and social assessments required by the regulatory approvals process for this Project. These assessments covered noise, air quality and a range of other assessments, including a Health Impact Assessment.
The issuing of the Development Licence is a recognition by the EPA that the proposed facility will meet best practice measures and stringent environmental standards. This will minimise impacts to the community and the environment so far as reasonably practicable.
The community can be assured that Prospect Hill International proposes to develop a state-of-the-art facility that meets all stringent EPA Victoria and European emissions standards.
Prospect Hill International is committed to ensuring community members are kept informed and will continue to listen to their feedback. As the Project progresses into the next phase, we see this as an opportunity to re-establish relationships with community members and continue to share information about the project. We will be sharing details of upcoming community information sessions shortly.
