TIWEST JOINT VENTURE
Review of Groundwater Monitoring License Requirements, Kwinana pigment plant & chemical works, Western Australia
A review of groundwater monitoring over the preceding ten-years and future monitoring requirements was undertaken on behalf of Tiwest JV at the Kwinana pigment plant on the Swan Coastal Plain.
A brief review of the main chemical processes was undertaken to identify raw materials, products, intermediates & waste chemicals.
Background data was reviewed regarding hydrogeology, groundwater monitoring &
historic sources of impact, including potential off-site contaminant sources.
A qualitative risk assessment was undertaken of current processes and historical impacts, and potential receptors.
Sampling procedures were reviewed & recommendations for improved quality assurance/ quality control (QA/QC) were outlined.
Recommendations were made to rationalise the existing bore monitoring
network and for changes to the monitoring program to meet new site licensing
requirements.
Further work was recommended to provide adequate characterisation and monitoring
of on-site process areas, and known off-site sources of contaminants.
