Historical Fuel Pipeline Remediation Work
The Corporation is progressing the removal of historical fuel pipelines and redundant infrastructure which lays beneath the south-east corner of the site.
Following the Searoad Shed demolition and removal of the below ground infrastructure, works will start shortly to investigate the extent of potential contamination to determine the most suitable remediation method of the surrounding soil.
A contractor has been engaged to begin investigative works, and remove the oil and diesel pipelines, and anticipated fuel contaminated soil, and lead impacted soil.
The Evans Street car park access has be relocated to allow safe entry to the public.
For a daily schedule of when works will be occurring and the potential impacts, please refer to our upcoming Works and Event page at What's Happening at Mac Point (macquariepoint.com).

Their work extended from Hobart to Launceston, including the towns of Ross, Campbell Town, George Town, Westbury, Richmond, New Norfolk and the penal settlements on the Forestier and Tasman Peninsulas.
