EPA tours South East industry and development
While in the South East last month, Chief Executive Tony Circelli and Executive Director Operations Andrew Wood also visited the Mount Gambier Railway land development, Mayura Cattle Feedlot, Timberlink Tarpeena timber mill and SA Water sites.
Mr Circelli said “Visiting these businesses was a reminder of the important role we have in proactively managing environmental impacts in the region and how this contributes to the strength of regional businesses and the state’s economy.”
The EPA has been working with SA Water to prioritise upgrade works for all 21 regional facilities based on treated effluent quality, development pressures and the receiving environment for the final effluent.
“The site tours provided an opportunity for us to visit the facilities together and discuss current performance and opportunities for improvement.
“Our thanks go to the management and staff at these sites, for their generous time and briefings on their operations and current challenges,” said Mr Circelli
