Botany Transformation Projects

Welcome, the purpose of this site is to provide information about Orica's various cleanup projects occurring or proposed at Botany.

Community Workshops - Community Matters

 

Community consultation workshops provide an opportunity for the community to participate in detailed discussions focussing on a particular issue or topic.

 

Orica held various community workshops during the preparation of the Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Car Park Waste Encapsulation (CPWE) Remediation Project in order to obtain as much feedback as possible. This community feedback was incorporated into the final EA.

 

Community workshops will continue to be held as required. For information on upcoming events, please view the Community Calendar
