PERTH WATERFRONT PROJECT — ALGAL BLOOMS
I refer to the Perth Waterfront project. (1) What advice has been sought or received on the need for flowthrough or reeded areas to prevent algal blooms in the high-temperature summer months? (2) Have any consultancy reports been prepared to ascertain what extra energy needs will be required for pump stations and aerators? (3) If yes, will the minister table the reports? (4) How much has been allocated to cover any additional energy costs? Hon HELEN MORTON

I thank the member for some notice of this question. The information has been provided to me by the Minister for Planning. (1) The Perth Waterfront project has been subject to a full range of environmental investigations, including hydrodynamic modelling of the inlet to ensure it flushes adequately and will not be susceptible to seasonal algal blooms. (2) Full infrastructure and servicing investigations have been undertaken, including energy demand. (3) The reports are subject to continual review as the project moves through the detailed design and documentation phase. (4) The project budget includes provision for a range of infrastructure to accommodate energy demand and servicing requirements for this important new city precinct. It does not identify a single line item cost for additional energy.
