The Development Application can be found by copying this number COM/2019/81 and pasting it in the link below

Summary

  • The Oxenford Quarry is due to closed February 2022

  • The owners have lodged a Development Application with Gold City Council to continue operations for 100+ years, as well as quarry 110+ metres below the river level and 90m up to the top of the ridge.

  • The DA was lodged in May 2019.

  • A decision will be made by council 14 September 2021

  • As at 14 August, the applicant has not yet provided a Dewatering Management Plan

  • Quarrying below the river level will result in a 6km2 area being drained of water, and it appears the plan is to pump it directly into the Coomera River at a rate of approx 30-40L per second 24/7

  • The Haulage Route has many homes built within a few metres from the road whereas 100m is required on either side

  • There are over 1000 homes within 1000m of the quarry

  • If this proposal is approved, the quarry will be blasting 150m away from homes & 350m from Oxenford State School

The residents request that NuCrush honour their current court order to regenerate the quarry and cease operations by February 2022
Evidence & information we have gathered to prove that this DA should rejected
