PROJECT OUTLINE

Precinct Urban Planning was engaged by K & D Hadenfeldt Pty Ltd to provide town planning assistance associated with the expansion of an existing gravel pit in Dirranbandi. This combined development application requested approval for:

• An “Extractive Industry” (White Rock and Gravel Pit)

• Environmentally Relevant Activity (ERA) to allow the extraction and screening of predominantly of White Rock and Gravel within the threshold of 100,000 up to 1,000,000 tonnes per annum on the subject land.

The white rock and gravel to be extracted will be used primarily for road construction and related maintenance purposes but may also have associated construction applications. There are limited quarries in the region that can supply the required type and mix of materials capable of meeting Austroads specifications for road sub-base and pavement construction.
