Crawfords Freightlines has both a Operational Environmental Management Plan and Pollution Incident Response Management Plan for its Sandgate Terminal as required by NSW Government.
The objectives of the Pollution Incident Response Management Plan (PIRMP) are to:
- Ensure comprehensive and timely notification regarding a pollution incident to persons employed at the site, the EPA, other regulatory authorities and emergency services, and neighbouring facilities that may be affected by the impacts of the incident;
- Minimise and control the risks associated with a pollution incident at the site by risk identification and development of mitigating actions to control, minimise, and manage risk;
- Ensure that the responses detailed within the plan are invoked by trained staff, response personnel are identified; and
- Ensure the plan is tested for accuracy and currency and addresses the risks associated with the site operations.
The Emergency Management Plan and Pollution Incident Response Management Plan for Werris Creek is also available.
