(1) The State government has taken steps to finalise the outcomes from the Cumulative Impact Study over the West End (dust study). The final report has been completed and LandCorp is liaising with the Department of State Development, as the agency responsible for coordinating resolution of the uncertainty surrounding the impact of dust in the West End, to determine the development options moving forward.
(2) The Town of Port Hedland and LandCorp attended a three day visit to Darwin in September to investigate the opportunities for replicating ideas from the Darwin Foreshore Precinct onto the Port Hedland foreshore. LandCorp envisages a delivery model working in partnership with the Town of Port Hedland to facilitate the provision of key infrastructure to leverage private sector development.
