'Two major industrial sites formerly occupied by Union Carbide and Allied Feeds and the sediments of Homebush Bay are now being remediated according to strict environmental and health criteria developed for the work and approved by the Department of Planning, Department of Health and the Department of Environment and Climate Change. These sites exist wholly with the City of Canada Bay Council local government area and the remediation company for these projects, Thiess Services Pty Ltd, is licensed by DECC to conduct the projects.
The Rhodes Community Consultative Committee has been established to monitor the projects and to receive regular updates and data on the remediation and development projects by the proponents involved. This committee meets monthly and is independently chaired by Mr John Kent. His contact details are 0419497033 or jk@wwsydney.com.
For more information about the next meeting, interested parties can call the Thiess Services Community Contact Line on the 24 hour toll free line of 1800 009 414.
Monthly newsletters are also produced and to view these these newsletters or to obtain other relevant information and updates regarding the site remediation work, please go to the website www.rhodesremediation.com.au
