I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. (1)-(5) I am pleased to advise the member that construction of the boating facility is well underway. The access road, car park, offshore island and causeway for the facility are nearing completion, with work on the ramps and jetty components to follow. The works are considered to be about 60 per cent complete. The project is currently on budget; however, it is running about six weeks behind schedule. The delay has arisen because of community concerns over pollution of the marine park and the quality of the rock construction material. A number of measures were put in place by the Department for Planning and Infrastructure, with the support of the Department of Environment and Conservation, to address these concerns, including the establishment of a joint environmental management team to oversee and monitor the works, especially the environmental impacts; deployment of additional DPI staff to Coral Bay to monitor the works; increased monitoring of turbidity and sediment deposition associated with the placement of rock; screening the stockpiled material to check/assess its suitability for use; and sampling of rock/sediment material and water quality. The DPI has also put in place regular public meetings with the Coral Bay community, and project update sheets and community newsletters have been distributed regularly to address community concerns and provide relevant project information. The project is expected to be completed by 31 July 2007.
