Abstract
This Weaber Plain Development Project EPBC Annual Environment Report for the period 1 May 2021 to 30 April 2022 has been developed in accordance with Condition 3 of the Commonwealth Environmental Approval for the Weaber Plain Development Project, EPBC 2010/5491, issued under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act 1999.
The Western Australian Government, Kimberley Agricultural Investment Pty Ltd (KAI) and the Yawoorroong Miriuwung Gajerrong Yirrgeb Noong Dawang Aboriginal Corporation (MG Corp) are completing farm development and conducting irrigated agriculture across the Weaber Plain, north of Kununurra in the eastern Kimberley region of WA.
This report has been prepared for the Proponent, the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development (DPIRD), for the period May 2021 to April 2022. This report is an Annual Environment Report rather than an audit report, but nonetheless reviews compliance and ongoing improvement opportunities, and considers the findings of monitoring programs in relation to overall environmental objectives for the Project.
