Responding to government and community feedback


Project Amendment Reports

Regis has lodged two Project Amendment Reports with the NSW Government, in September 2020 and May 2022.

The Amendment Reports and accompanying Submissions Report set out our response to the issues raised by the community and government agencies, following the public exhibition of the proposal in 2019.

We’ve looked at all the feedback and worked with neighbours and other stakeholders to come up with a number of changes which will further reduce environmental and community impacts.

These include:

  • Moving the site access road further east to improve traffic flow and safety on the Mid-Western Highway
  • a new mine and waste rock emplacement schedule to further reduce noise impacts; and
  • improvements to the site layout to protect potential heritage items and trees, and reduce the visual impact of the project.

The Amendment Reports will be assessed by the NSW Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) before being determined by the NSW Independent Planning Commission (IPC). You can view both Amendment Reports and the Submissions Report at:
