Environmental management systems

Our EMS makes it easier to identify the parts of our business that have an impact on the environment, like air pollution, loss of biodiversity, pollution from wastes, resource consumption, noise and vibration, land contamination and water pollution.

We can then establish the activity's associated risk, based on:

• the frequency that the activity occurs
• the severity of the actual or potential impact
• the social sensitivity of the issue

This allows us to identify the activities with the greatest potential impact.

We've established ways of operating that aim to make the least amount of adverse impact possible. These procedures ensure we work in accordance with our policies, objectives and legal obligations.

Considering the low-risk nature of our operations, our refueling facilities and underground fuel storage tanks pose the greatest risk to the environment. We recently assessed and upgraded our fuel storage tanks to make sure they exceed, or at the very least meet, Australian Environmental Standards.
