Following our 21 November update, Stage 2 of the drilling works at Eastern Creek landfill has unfortunately had to be rescheduled, due to circumstances out of BINGO’s control related to the delay in arrival of drilling equipment.
Drilling works will commence on Monday, 23 December, during operational hours from 8:30 am to 5:30 pm. No drilling works will take place on Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Years Day or on weekends.
We are combining the work schedule of Stage 2 and 3 drilling program, and this is expected to be completed by the end of March 2025.
Each well will be sealed after drilling works are completed, and we do not expect any odour in connection with these works. As a precaution, a mobile odour control spray unit will be used as an additional control for the duration of the works, to supplement our existing odour prevention measures.
In the case of unfavourable weather conditions, the works will be postponed to a future date.
