2. AIR QUALITY MONITORING The air quality monitoring results for the reporting period are summarised below.
2.1 Depositional Dust The depositional dust (g/m2/month) results (insoluble solids) for the reporting period are shown in Table 4 and Figure 1. Due to the extended turn-around time on analysis, results for dust gauges will be reported a month in arrears.
Table 4 – Depositional Dust

LS Dust Gauge 1 (Point 5) 0.1
LS Dust Gauge 6 (Point 2) 0.5
LS Dust Gauge 7 (Point 1) 0.5
LS Dust Gauge 8 (Point 3) 0.1
LS Dust Gauge 9 (Point 6) 0.8
LS Dust Gauge 10 (Point 7) 0.3
LS Dust Gauge 11 0.6
EPL 5129 does not include a licence limit for depositional dust. A 12-month rolling average air quality
criteria of 4 g/m2/month is commonly used for comparison purposes (Figure 2). The 4 g/m2/month criteria
is a condition of the Lidsdale Siding project approval, however applies at residences on privately owned
property. The Lidsdale Siding dust gauges are located on and near operational areas, and not at private
residences.
