ORICA SEEKS PRODUCTION APPROVAL

Kooragang Island’s Orica plant is seeking planning department approval for an increase in ammonia production.

The plant’s output is 360,000 tonnes per year but current daily production is trending towards 385,000 tonnes.

If unsuccessful, Orica would need to wind back production to stay within its current guidelines.

Orica was fined over pollution incidents in 2011 and carried out upgrades to the plant.

Community feedback can be made through the Department of Planning.
