WELCOMEWelcome to OnCUE - Cleaning Up Esperance, the Esperance cleanup and recovery website. The Western Australian State Government is committed to ensuring future exports and imports through the Port of Esperance do not pose a risk to the health or amenity of the Esperance community. In December 2008 the State Government launched the Esperance cleanup and recovery project, a rigorous and comprehensive exercise to clean up the Esperance townsite of lead carbonate and nickel sulphide dust that had escaped from the port during ship loading over a number of years. The Department of Environment and Conservation has imposed a number of licence conditions on the Port of Esperance to ensure all future metal concentrate exports do not cause any further health or environmental problems. Find out more about OnCUE - Cleaning Up Esperance, the Esperance cleanup and recovery project, by visiting our other pages through the index tabs on the top menu. Further information on the Esperance cleanup project is available on the Department of Health and Department of Environment and Conservation websites. | Project updates9 March 2012 (pdf 235kb)
