Mines on Dust Restriction Programs

Nine coal mines have been placed on legally binding dust reduction programs.

These mines include BHP’s Mount Arthur mine, Xstrata’s Liddell and Bengalla mines, and the Stratford and Tasman mines, The Herald reports.

Minister for the environment Robyn Parker yesterday told NSW state parliament the legally binding “dust stop” program will expand to include all 68 mines operating in NSW by April 2012.
