By their very nature, long distance cross country pipelines can have an enormous impact on our environment and cultural heritage. With this mind Mitchell Water has always been at the forefront of effectively managing the environmental and cultural integrity of the areas in which we work. Mitchell Water is accredited to ISO 14001.
On the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline Project, we have encountered and properly dealt with over 1,600 ecological and cultural hold points and over 300 waterway crossings. Through preventative actions and well structured work practices the majority of these areas have often been restored to better than their original condition with no real evidence of a pipeline ever having been constructed through them. Many of the hundreds of cultural heritage sites which we managed had previously been unidentified.
Our Environmental Management System constantly evolves to ensure current best practice and adapts to deal with changing environmental conditions. |
