Amendment Notice
This amendment is made pursuant to section 59 of the Environmental Protection Act 1986 (EP Act) to amend the Licence issued under the EP Act for a prescribed premises as set out below. This notice of amendment is given under section 59B(9) of the EP Act.
This notice is limited to Australian Nickel Investments Pty Ltd (ANI) constructing a new 3 kilometre dewatering pipeline between Cosmos and Orleans open pits and the removal of MB02 as a compliance monitoring bore at the Cosmos Nickel Project. When ANI acquired the premises, a suitable agreement was unable to be reached to utilise the existing dewatering pipeline located on alternate tenements therefore a new dewatering pipeline is required. No changes to the approved dewatering rate (3 Mtpa) of the existing Licence has been requested by ANI with respects to the dewatering operations between Cosmos and Orleans open pits.
The following guidance statements have informed the decision made on this amendment:

Amendment description
The Licence Holder proposes to construct a new dewatering pipeline as part of works to reopen the Cosmos underground mine. A Licence amendment application to construct the pipeline was submitted by the Licence Holder on 25 May 2018. A subsequent email dated 12 June 2018 requested the removal of MB02 as a compliance monitoring bore on grounds of it suitability for this purpose.
Table 2 lists the documents submitted during the assessment process.

Background
Cosmos is a former nickel mining and processing venture located near Leinster, approximately 370 km northwest of Kalgoorlie. The project was placed into care and maintenance in 2012 by the previous operator, where the underground operation and lower levels of the Cosmos pit were allowed to flood.
ANI acquired the project in September 2015 and is now preparing to resume underground mining. In June 2017, DWER amended the Licence to enable dewatering of the flooded mine and underground, and construction of new water management ponds (WMP). Draining of the flooded mine was based on a tight timeframe, with an expected completion date of November 2018.
DWER has previously assessed the acceptability of the proposed dewatering strategy for the Premises, including water balance calculations and hydrogeological modelling referenced in the decision report for the existing Licence, dated June 2017.
Proposed Works
The Licence Holder proposes to commence open pit dewatering, which will involve discharging mine water to WMP 6 & 7. This will enable the Licence Holder to observe how the
Licence: L7404/1999/9
IR-T08 Amendment Notice (Major) template v2.0 (July 2017) 4
aquifer will respond to dewatering and make adjustments to the dewatering schedule, accordingly.
New dewatering pipeline from Cosmos to Orleans pit
The new dewatering pipeline from Cosmos to Orleans pit will be constructed over a 3.0 km distance between pits and laid alongside an existing track to allow visual monitoring for pipeline leaks and ruptures. The route will be within tenement M36/127 & M36/371 as shown in schedule 1 of this Licence amendment and will involve the clearing of 2.5 Ha of vegetation.
The pipeline will be constructed using 280 mm diameter Polyethylene high density pipe which is butt welded and then laid in a trench that will be 600 mm wide and 900 mm deep and will include mounding of approximately 500 to 600 mm. Section of pipeline laid under road crossings, floodway and dry creek crossings are shown below.
The pipeline will be hydro-tested prior to commissioning to ensure the pipelines integrity and will be fitted with a telemetry-based leak detection system in the form of a flow meter and transmitter at each end of the pipeline. Any discrepancy between the flow meters will cause the pump to cease operating and trigger an alarm. Daily inspections of the pipeline route during dewatering operations will be undertaken. Dewatering is estimated at a rate of approximately 40 L/s to be discharged to the WMP’s.
Monitoring bore MB02
A reduced groundwater monitoring schedule has focused on 7 bores (MB02, MB09, MB10, MB11, MB13, MB14 and MB16) in the immediate vicinity of WMPs 6 & 7. WMP 8 and 9 are currently under construction including new monitoring wells MB21, MB22, MB23 and MB24. As MB02 is located in a disturbed corridor sandwiched between the tailing storage facility (TSF) and WMP 6 & 7 it is no longer serving the purpose of monitoring groundwater levels to protect vegetation to the north of the TSF. The map below indicates the location of MB02 and identifies the location of the new bores (MB21, MB22, MB23 and MB24) to be constructed.

Location and receptors
The Premises is located in the north-eastern Goldfields, on the Norseman-Wiluna Greenstone Belt. The local area is a major mineral province with several operating gold and nickel mines, and numerous prospects for uranium, rare earths and base metals.
The climate is considered arid to semi-arid, with the area characterized by undulating areas of sandplain and granite outcrop, and by ephemeral creeks which drain into large salt lakes. Groundwater is saline-to-hypersaline and occurs in the bedrock, paleo-channels and in overlying alluvial, colluvium and calcrete deposits. There is no fresh groundwater in the region; limited areas of brackish groundwater occur in the upper reaches of some catchments.
Table 3 below lists the relevant sensitive land uses and specified ecosystems in the vicinity of the Prescribed Premises, which may be receptors relevant to the proposed amendment.

Ephemeral waterbody that provides an important refuge for aquatic biota and may support a diverse range or organisms during flooding
Groundwater Distance from the Premises Environmental value
Groundwater Pre-mining groundwater level in the area of the WMPs is approximately 15 mbgl.
Historical dewatering activities at the Cosmos pit and underground has resulted in a drawdown cone which extends approx. 1.4 km north of the pit, forming a capture zone around almost the entire upper catchment.
There are 5 registered bores within 3 km of the Premises. The closest is Williams Well located adjacent to WMP2 and is no longer operational. The remaining 4 are unsuccessful groundwater exploration holes that were installed in 1988 and are no longer in use.
The natural groundwater is non-potable, with salinity ranging from 900 to 3,000 mg/L total dissolved solids. Potable water is drawn from the Yakabindie borefield and treated via reverse osmosis.
The salinity of groundwater deeper in the profile is hypersaline.
Risk assessment
Table 5 below describes the Risk Events associated with the amendment consistent with the Guidance Statement: Risk Assessments. The table identifies whether the emissions present a material risk to public health or the environment, requiring regulatory controls.

Seepage Hypersaline water to groundwater
Groundwater and native vegetation within area of influence of seeping or ruptured pipeline
Direct discharge
Groundwater mounding Moderate Possible Moderate The predictive groundwater modelling simulation indicates that localised mounding will occur in the southern and south-eastern parts of WMP’s, however this is likely to be offset by groundwater drawdown around the Cosmos pit.
The Licence Holder has proposed to install additional monitoring/recovery bores around WMP’s to enable early detection of groundwater mounding (proposed trigger level of 6 m) and early implementation of groundwater recovery, if required. This is consistent with the existing dewatering strategy for the overall dewatering operation.
The Delegated Officer has reviewed existing regulatory controls within the existing Licence and considers these to be sufficient for mitigating the risk of groundwater mounding (with WMP’s added to the existing conditions and MB02 being removed as a compliance bore).
Groundwater contamination
Insignificant Possible Low Groundwater quality is poor (hypersaline) with no beneficial users
Dewatering pipeline Rupture of pipeline causing hypersaline discharge to land
Native vegetation adjacent to pipeline alignment
Soil contamination inhibiting vegetation growth and survival
Moderate Possible Moderate The salinity of mine water to be transferred from the mine pit and underground ranges from 90,000 to 300,000 mg/L TDS and is hypersaline. Releases of hypersaline water impact on surface vegetation, salinize soils, increase soil erosion and potentially contaminate local surface and groundwater.
Evidence of environmental impacts from hypersaline water spills have been observed at several mine sites in the Goldfields, where large scale vegetation deaths were evident.
The Licence Holder has proposed controls to prevent pipeline seepage and ruptures, including flow meters and pressure transmitters at both ends of the pipeline, alarms to indicate reduced flow / pressure, laying pipelines in trenches to contain potential spills, constructing sumps at low points and undertaking routine daily inspections.
The Delegated Officer has reviewed existing regulatory controls within the existing Licence and considers these to be sufficient for mitigating the risk of pipeline ruptures (with new dewatering pipeline added to the existing infrastructure conditions).
Licence: L7404/1999/9
IR-T08 Amendment Notice (Major) template v2.0 (July 2017) 9
Decision
The Delegated Officer has previously assessed the risk of recommencing mine dewatering operations at the Premises (refer to decision report for the existing Licence, dated June 2017) and considers the recommencement of dewatering as an addendum to that risk assessment.
The Delegated Officer considers the construction of new dewatering pipeline and the removal of MB02 will not result in a material change to the overall risk of potential emissions at the Premises, i.e. hypersaline water to groundwater (from seepage through the base of the pond) and to land (from pond overtopping or pipeline rupture), and Conditions 9 – 25 on the existing Licence are sufficient to manage the risk of such emissions.
Groundwater monitoring requirements in the Licence are applicable to the dewatering strategy for the Premises. As dewatering involves discharge to WMPs, groundwater monitoring requirements in the Licence have been removed for bore MB02 in the immediate vicinity of WMPs 6 & 7 because it no longer is suitable to monitor vegetation health and will be replaced by new monitoring bores MB21, MB22, MB23 and MB24. The full monitoring schedule for dewatering operations will be reviewed once dewatering recommences, which will require a separate amendment application.
