The Challenge
A review of Balonne Shire Council’s Environmental Authority was required. This project was to include an overall review, administrative amendments, and modifications to the existing Site-Based Management Plan for compliance. An assessment of Council's green waste disposal with the provision of green waste disposal options was also needed.
The Solution
Proterra Group updated the Site Based Management Plan for the St George Landfill, drafted a Green Waste Options Report and conducted minor administrative amendments on Council's Environmental Authority through the DES Connect portal on Balonne Shires behalf.

The Benefit
The new site-based management plan will allow Council to ensure compliance in relation to their Environmental Authority (EA). The EA amendment allowed Council to streamline the EA and ensure the current information is accurate. The Green Waste Options Report provides Council with a cost-benefit analysis of the options for the disposal of green waste. With green waste disposal currently being a major issue, the findings will help Council make improvements to the existing services.
The Result
Council's Environmental Authority was amended to reflect the correct information about their site. The Green Waste Report will help Council decide on the way forward with green waste disposal for the shire. The site-based management plan was implemented into site operations.
