​Abstract
​

Development and Implementation of NSW Government’s Mine Rehabilitation Policy

The NSW Government is in the process of reforming its regulatory framework for the rehabilitation of State significant mining developments. The reforms are intended to establish a more consistent and transparent framework for regulating mine rehabilitation, including the assessment of final voids.

As part of this reform, a discussion paper, Improving Mine Rehabilitation in NSW, was released in November 2017 to seek early feedback on the proposed improvements. This feedback is being used to inform development of a new state-wide policy and actions that provide certainty to industry and the community by clearly setting out Government expectations regarding rehabilitation and closure for all major mining projects in NSW.

Our presentation will provide an overview of the reform process.
