Information Sessions – Councils, Forests NSW and National Parks and Wildlife Services - Dubbo

Tickets are now available for a series of face-to-face information sessions that are specifically designed to engage with mine operators who operate multiple small quarries.

The sessions will provide information on health, safety, and other topics, such as quarry manager practising certificates, legislation updates and current exemptions, the requirements for identifying and managing respirable crystalline silica (RCS) in accordance with schedule 6 Work Health and Safety (Mines and Petroleum Sites) Regulation 2022 and learnings from a dangerous incident where other persons (children) were injured after entering an active quarry.

The two-hour session will provide valuable information and legislative clarification to the small mines' sector that will assist you to maintain safe mining practices and also provide an opportunity for face-to-face engagement with the Regulator.

These events will be held in line with the NSW Government COVID-19 Safety Plan for conferences, functions and corporate events.

Attendees must comply with COVID-19 requirements, including those of the venue. Visit the NSW Government COVID-19 rules to get the latest updates.
