DCCEEW released meeting minutes and application documentation for artificial reef permits at South Thevenard and Onslow in Western Australia. The documents detail a July 2022 discussion between DCCEEW, Chevron, and Recfishwest regarding responses to RFAI (Request for Further Information) comments on the reef projects. Key discussion items included EPA and DWER consultation status, with the EPA approving Chevron's Decommissioning and Rehabilitation Plan submitted September 2020 that proposed reefing as the end state for Yammaderry and Cowle monopods, contingent on DAWE issuing reefing permits. The meeting also addressed installation flexibility specifications, including stump cutting heights and component labeling. The documents show coordination between state environmental authorities and the Commonwealth regulator regarding decommissioning outcomes that would convert offshore infrastructure into artificial reefs.
