Executive summaryThis report assesses potential impacts to groundwater associated with the construction and operationof the proposed Gas Import Jetty and Pipeline Project (the Project).

The Project would establish a gas import jetty and pipeline in Victoria comprising:

· a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) at Crib Point Jetty – the Gas Import Jetty Works

· a gas pipeline between Crib Point and Pakenham to connect to the Victorian TransmissionSystem (VTS) east of Pakenham – the Pipeline Works.

The Project would provide an additional supply of natural gas into the south-eastern Australian gasmarket for industrial, commercial and residential customers.

Potential supply gaps in Victoria’s gas market are predicted from 2024. The Project would improveenergy security for industrial, commercial and domestic customers and would increase competition inthe market.

Marine, surface water and contaminated soils, acid sulphate soils and contaminated sedimentstechnical assessments have been prepared to consider other water related impacts.

MethodologyThe groundwater study area includes the proposed pipeline alignment and its options, and a bufferarea of 200 metres either side of the pipeline, being the area where groundwater levels, flow orgroundwater quality could be impacted. The Crib Point Receiving Facility portion of the Gas ImportJetty Works was also assessed as part of this study.

The assessment of existing conditions for groundwater was based on a review of publicly availablegroundwater data and studies, and results of a field program carried out in December 2018 andJanuary 2019. Twenty-six shallow groundwater monitoring bores were installed along the pipelinealignment to characterise the groundwater quality, depth to groundwater and hydraulic conductivity ofthe geology along the pipeline alignment.

Potential impacts on groundwater have been identified by considering the proposed constructionmethods and identifying risks that may impact beneficial uses or groundwater users. Methods tomitigate potential impacts have been developed based on existing construction guidelines andpractices to manage environments surrounding construction sites of similar type and scale.

Existing conditionsThe study area is within the Western Port Basin (the basin). The sediments and volcanic flows of thebasin form a multilayered aquifer system dominated by a Tertiary Age sedimentary sequence, overlainby a relatively thin veneer of Quaternary sediments - including coastal and inland dune deposits,swamp and lake deposits and alluvial deposits. The maximum depth of trench excavations along thepipeline alignment is approximately three metres, but more typically two metres. Thrust bore bell holesmay be up to four metres deep. The geology encountered to this depth during the field program isunconsolidated and includes clay, silt and sand with occasional gravels.

The watertable along the pipeline is generally shallow (less than four metres below ground), butdeeper than the typical open cut trench depth of two metres in most monitoring wells installed alongthe pipeline alignment. Watertable fluctuations of up to 0.5 to two metres are typical in comparableshallow groundwater environments, with water levels shallowest in late winter/early spring anddeepest in late summer/early autumn. Although groundwater levels were measured towards the end ofsummer as part of this study (when levels are likely to be deeper), the impact assessmentconservatively considered a high watertable scenario close to ground surface (that is, within 0.5metre). Groundwater levels have previously been encountered between approximately six and eightmetres below ground surface beneath the western portion of the Crib Point Receiving Facility (wheretrenching and piling is proposed).

Shallow geology is mostly fine grained (clay and clay/silt) with occasional sands and gravelly sands.This is consistent with generally low hydraulic conductivity values in shallow monitoring wells(geometric mean of 0.007 metres per day but up to 0.3 metres per day (measured at one location)).

Moderate to high potential aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems that may rely on groundwater have beenmapped in the study area based on national assessment, particularly in the southern portion of thestudy area. These include watercourses that cross the pipeline alignment and are mapped aspotentially gaining streams (that is, receiving groundwater as baseflow). These potential groundwaterdependent ecosystems (GDEs) were considered as part of the groundwater impact assessment.

There were 69 registered bores within the study area (of which eight were designated as ‘not used’),with 48 being for consumptive use and 21 for monitoring purposes. Four consumptive use bores(stock, stock and domestic, and irrigation) were within 30 metres of trenched pipeline sections andnone were within 60 metres of thrust bore bell holes and HDD tie-in bell holes – conservativelyestimated as the extent of reduced groundwater levels due to dewatering activities.

Impact assessmentPotential impacts identified for the construction phase of the Pipeline Works and Gas Import JettyWorks included:

· reduction in groundwater levels if dewatering activities are required with the subsequent potentialto affect registered bore users, groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs) and induce salineintrusion

· groundwater quality impacts from horizontal directional drilling (HDD) drilling muds

· poor quality overland flow entering open trenches

· loss, damage or inaccessibility of registered groundwater bores during construction

· groundwater quality impacts due to the installation of pilings beneath land side portion of the GasImport Jetty Works (at Crib Point Receiving Facility).

The groundwater impact assessment found limited potential for impacts on groundwater levels andflow during the operational phase of the Project. The risk of permanently reduced groundwater levelsdue to the drainage effects of preferential flow paths within the trench was considered.

Overall, construction and operation of the Pipeline Works and the Gas Import Jetty Works presentlimited risks to groundwater due to the shallow depth of trenching and horizontal boring, short durationdewatering activities (where groundwater is intersected) and clay and silt dominated nature of thematerials likely to be encountered. Where dewatering is required, the reductions in groundwater levelsare estimated to be of limited magnitude, lateral extent and duration.

The residual risk of potential impacts on groundwater were identified as being low or very low and itwas concluded that the Project is consistent with the scoping requirements and the draft evaluationobjective with respect to potential impacts on groundwater levels, quality and flow from constructionand operational activities with appropriate mitigation measures in place.

Recommended mitigation measuresThe following mitigation measures are recommended for the Project.

1.0 IntroductionThis report assesses the potential groundwater impacts associated with the construction and operationThe Project would provide an additional supply of natural gas into the south-eastern Australian gasmarket for industrial, commercial and residential customers.

The Australian Energy Market Operator has predicted potential supply gaps in Victoria’s gas marketfrom 2024 (AEMO, 2019). The Project would improve energy security for industrial, commercial anddomestic customers and would increase competition in the market.

The joint proponents of the Project are AGL Wholesale Gas Limited (AGL) and APA Transmission PtyLimited (APA).

The Project would establish a gas import jetty and pipeline comprising:

· a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) at Crib Point Jetty – the Gas Import Jetty Works

· a gas pipeline between Crib Point and Pakenham to connect to the Victorian TransmissionSystem (VTS) east of Pakenham – the Pipeline Works.

The Project was referred by AGL and APA to the Victorian Government under the Environment EffectsAct 1978 (Vic) on 13 September 2018 as two separate projects consisting of the Gas Import JettyWorks and Pipeline Works.

On 8 October 2018 the Minister for Planning issued a decision determining that an EnvironmentEffects Statement (EES) was required for the Project due to the potential for a range of significantenvironmental effects.

The Gas Import Jetty Works and the Pipeline Works were also referred to the CommonwealthGovernment under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act) asseparate projects.

Each project was designated as a controlled action requiring impact assessment under the EPBC Act.The EES process is the accredited environmental assessment for the controlled action decisionsunder the EPBC Act in accordance with the bilateral agreement between the Commonwealth andVictorian governments.

1.1 PurposeThis report provides a groundwater impact assessment for the EES and sets out mitigation measuresfor potential impacts of the Project. This report will inform the development of an EnvironmentalManagement Framework (EMF) for the Project. The mitigation measures listed in the EMF would beimplemented in the approvals and management plans for the Project.

1.1.1 Why understanding groundwater is importantShallow groundwater is anticipated to be intersected along some sections of the Project duringconstruction activities required for the installation of the pipeline, which could potentially impactgroundwater levels, flow and quality.

It is important to assess whether these activities could impact the beneficial uses of groundwater or,groundwater users in the Project Area. Groundwater users include those people who pump water fromexisting registered groundwater bores, and groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs). GDEs arethose ecosystems that require access to groundwater to meet all or some of their water requirementsto maintain the communities of plants and animals and ecological processes they support, andecosystem services they provide1. These can include streams or lakes that groundwater flows into,vegetation with roots that access groundwater or biota living in cave systems.

This report documents the area of potential groundwater level and groundwater quality impacts thatmay arise from the Project and documents potential risks to groundwater users (including GDEs) andbeneficial uses.

Potential impacts to groundwater quality from the Project are also considered in EES Technical ReportE: Contamination and acid sulfate soils impact assessment.

1.2 Project descriptionThe Project comprises two sets of works: the Gas Import Jetty Works and the Pipeline Works.

AGL would undertake the Gas Import Jetty Works. APA would undertake the Pipeline Works.

1.2.1 Gas Import Jetty WorksThe Gas Import Jetty Works would consist of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) import facility comprising:

· continuous mooring of an FSRU at Berth 2 of the existing Crib Point Jetty to store LNG andregasify LNG into natural gas

· Jetty Infrastructure on the Crib Point Jetty including marine loading arms (MLAs) and gas pipingto transfer the gas from the FSRU to the Crib Point Receiving Facility

· Crib Point Receiving Facility, including metering, odorant injection and nitrogen injection, whichwould be located on land adjacent to the Crib Point Jetty.

The FSRU vessel for the Project would be approximately 300 metres long and 50 metres wide. Itwould have capacity to store 170,000 cubic metres (m3) of LNG. Visiting vessels carrying LNG (LNGcarriers) would berth alongside the FSRU to transfer their LNG to the FSRU, which could take up to 36hours.

The FSRU would store the LNG as a liquid and when required, return LNG back into a gaseous stateby heating the LNG using either seawater or gas-fired boilers (a process known as regasification).

Following regasification, the natural gas would be transferred through gas piping along the jetty fromthe FSRU to the Crib Point Receiving Facility.

The Crib Point Receiving Facility would include treatment facilities to inject odorant and nitrogen (asrequired) into the natural gas to meet VTS gas quality specifications.

1.2.2 Pipeline WorksThe Pipeline Works would comprise a bi-directional gas transmission pipeline to transport gas from theCrib Point Receiving Facility to the VTS east of Pakenham.

The pipeline would be approximately 57 kilometres long with a nominal diameter of 600 millimetres.The pipeline would be buried at a depth of generally 1.2 metres below ground (to the top of the pipe).

The Pipeline Works would also comprise the following facilities:

· the pigging facility at the Crib Point Receiving Facility to enable in-line inspections of the pipelinewith a pipeline inspection gauge (pig)

· the above-ground Pakenham Delivery Facility situated adjacent to the Pakenham East rail depotto monitor and regulate the gas

· the below-ground End of Line Scraper Station (EOLSS) located at the connection point to theVTS, north of the Princes Highway in Pakenham

· two above-ground mainline valves (MLVs) located at different points along the pipeline alignmentto enable isolation of the pipeline in an emergency.

1.2.3 ConstructionThe key construction activities for the Gas Import Jetty Works would include:

· establishment of construction sites including laydown areas

3AECOM

· installation of Jetty Infrastructure on the Crib Point Jetty, including MLAs, gas piping mounted tothe jetty, electrical and instrumentation equipment and a firefighting system

· construction of the Crib Point Receiving Facility.

Construction for the Gas Import Jetty Works would take approximately 18 to 27 months, depending onweather conditions.

The key construction activities for the Pipeline Works would include:

· establishment of laydown areas

· construction of the pigging facility at Crib Point Receiving Facility, Pakenham Delivery Facility,two MLVs and the EOLSS

· pipeline construction using construction techniques such as trenching, horizontal directionaldrilling (HDD) or boring, typically within a 30-metre-wide pipeline construction right of way (ROW).

Construction for the Pipeline Works would take approximately 18 to 124 months, depending onweather conditions.

Subject to the staging of the works outlined above, construction for the entire Project is expected totake approximately 18 to 27 months.

1.2.4 Operation and maintenanceWhen commissioned, the FSRU would be operated by an experienced third-party operator. The CribPoint Receiving Facility and associated Jetty Infrastructure would be owned and operated by AGL oran experienced third-party operator. The Pipeline Works would be owned and operated by APA.

The FSRU may leave Western Port during the Project lifetime for activities such as scheduledmaintenance and extreme weather events.

The gas import jetty would initially receive approximately 12 LNG carriers per year with capacity toincrease to approximately 40 LNG carriers per year. The number and frequency of LNG carriersarriving each year would depend on their storage capacity and gas demand.

The Crib Point Receiving Facility is designed to be automated and may be operated unmanned undernormal operating conditions.

An operational easement of generally 15 metres wide would apply to the pipeline alignment. Thepipeline easement would be routinely inspected for any operational or maintenance issues inaccordance with APA procedures.

The pipeline would also be designed and constructed so that pigging could be undertaken to inspectthe integrity of the pipeline as required. Pigging would be undertaken around 10 years afterconstruction and then at a frequency determined by the first inspection.

The Pakenham Delivery Facility is also designed to be automated and operate unmanned undernormal operating conditions.

The EOLSS would be buried with valves contained within concrete pits. The connection to the VTSwould operate unmanned. Excavation of the site to access the EOLSS would be required for thepigging activities.

1.2.5 DecommissioningThe FSRU is proposed to operate for 20 years, although this may be shortened or extended toaddress security and stability of gas supply to south-eastern Australia. When the Project was nolonger required, the FSRU would leave Western Port.

The Jetty Infrastructure installed on the Crib Point Jetty and the Crib Point Receiving Facility would bedecommissioned and removed when no longer required. The Crib Point Jetty would remain as anoperational jetty under the management of the Port of Hastings Development Authority (PoHDA).

The pipeline would have a design life of 60 years. If the Pipeline Works were no longer required, theywould be decommissioned in accordance with Australian Standard AS2885 Pipelines – gas and liquidpetroleum and relevant legislative and approval requirements at the time of decommissioning.

ConstructionPipeline installation is expected to occur primarily during summer, wherever practicable, whenephemeral streams are less likely to be flowing and any surface water runoff into open trenches wouldbe reduced. Groundwater levels would typically be at their lowest at this time.

The pipeline would be installed using three techniques: trenching, horizontal directional drilling (HDD),and horizontal boring. These are discussed below.

Trenching:

Trenching is the principal construction method, with 47.43 kilometres of the total 57.76 kilometres (84per cent) of pipeline designed to be installed with this method. In a number of areas with potentiallysensitive features, or for logistical reasons, HDD and boring installation techniques would be used.

The trenching process would involve excavating an open cut trench that would typically be two metresdeep and a minimum of 900 millimetres wide (600 millimetres pipe diameter plus 150 millimetres eachside). The trench width is increased to 1,800 millimetres (600 millimetres pipe diameter plus 600millimetres each side) where in situ concrete slab protection is required above the pipe. Where thetrench crosses unsealed roads, the depth may increase to 2.6 to three metres.

Typically, the time the trench is open (i.e. time between excavation and backfilling) would beminimised, however it is possible that at times the pipeline trench could remain open in the order ofseveral weeks.

Immediately prior to the pipe being installed, the trench would be dewatered to remove the majoritywater, which has collected during the time it has been open. This water may be groundwater,incidental rainwater or a combination of both. It is anticipated that pumping from the trench andinstallation of the pipe would be completed on the same day. However, for the purposes of this impactassessment, a maximum pumping period of two days (48 hours) has been assumed.

Disposal of groundwater pumped out of the trench is discussed in EES Technical Report E:Contamination and acid sulphate soils impact assessment. Wherever possible, the trench would bebackfilled with native material (that is, material removed during trench excavation) following grading toremove rocks and other deleterious material that could damage pipe coating. Packing sands would beused to backfill the trench beneath roads.

Figure 1-2 Construction right of way trenching layout

Horizontal directional drilling (HDD):

HDD would typically be used to install the pipeline beneath major roads, major watercourses and othersensitive features. The construction design involves approximately eight kilometres of the total57 kilometre pipeline length (14 per cent) using HDD methods.

HDD would involve drilling at an angle to a low point in the middle and then back up to an exit point onthe other side of the sensitive feature (road, waterway, vegetation). Entry and exit pits are typically

constructed (approximately five metres long, three metres wide and two metres deep) and used asmud pits, therefore not dewatered.

No trenches need to be excavated for this installation method and no dewatering is necessary duringdrilling and pipe installation. After drilling and installation of the pipe along the HDD section, bell holeswould be constructed at the entry and exit points to facilitate joining of the pipe (known as tying-in).These HDD tie-in bell holes would be approximately five metres long, five metres wide, and two andhalf metres deep. These may require short term dewatering if groundwater is intersected. It isanticipated that pumping from the bell hole and tying-in of the pipe would be completed on the sameday. Potential impact on groundwater quality from drilling fluids has been considered.

Horizontal boring:

Horizontal thrust boring (also known as micro tunnelling) or mini-HDD would be used to install thepipeline at identified road, rail and water crossings. The preference is typically to utilise mini-HDDtechniques at these locations, with horizontal thrust boring used where mini-HDD is deemed to beunsuitable. The drilling methodology would be determined by the contractor.

Thrust boring would involve excavating an entry bell hole approximately 10 metres long, four metreswide, and up to four metres deep. The exit bell hole would typically be seven metres long, four metreswide and up to four metres deep. The boring machine drills horizontally from the entry bell holebeneath the sensitive feature until it reaches the bell hole at the end of the boring section. Thrust borebell holes would need to be dewatered prior to drilling if groundwater has seeped in. It isconservatively assumed that a depth of up to 3.5 metres of water would be present in the bell holesand would require dewatering for up to ten days. The entry and exit bell holes associated with themini-HDD technique are approximately five metres long, five metres wide and two and half metresdeep, with the duration of dewatering activities being less than that of the thrust boring technique.

The impact assessment has assumed that all horizontal boring would be by the thrust boringtechnique. This is a conservative approach given that potential drawdown impacts from dewateringwould be greater for thrust bore bell holes due to the greater footprint, depth and duration of pumpingcompared to mini-HDD.

The construction design involves approximately 1.35 kilometres of the total 57.76 kilometres pipelinelength (two per cent) using horizontal boring or mini-HDD methods.

End of line scraper station (EOLSS):

The EOLSS is where the pipeline connects to the VTS, via the Longford Dandenong Pipeline (LDP)and LDP loop line. These works would include hot tap works involving the excavation of large holestypically six metres wide, 10 metres long and up to 3.5 metres deep to allow for welding onto the

existing pipeline and drilling into it. Additional excavations would be required to install the buriedpipework, concrete retaining wall, concrete foundations and the large concrete valve pits that enablethe EOLSS to remain buried under normal operation by allowing operation of the valves to beaccessible from the surface. It is unlikely that groundwater would be intersected based on the site’selevation and regional data.

Design/operationTrench breakers:

The design of the pipeline includes the installation of ‘trench breakers’ (also known as trench blocks)across the space between the pipeline and the trench (that is, the annulus). These prevent scour ofthe trench by impeding lateral water flow along the trench annulus, and are installed at intervals insloping terrain and where overbends are required to increase or decrease the elevation of the pipelineover a short distance (such as at MLVs and watercourses).

Trench breakers are installed in a number of ways within the trench void around the pipe which mayinclude sandbags containing sand and dry mix cement compacted under and around the pipe or sandand dry mix cement placed in-situ around the pipe.

Figure 1-5 Typical trench breaker details (see APA drawing CPT.23737-DWG-L-0106 in Appendix A)

Backfill:

Rocks and other deleterious material that could affect the pipe coating are removed to allow re-use ofexcavated material. The fines are used for bedding and padding around the pipe in trenches and bellholes and the remaining material compacted in layers on top of the fines as cover above the pipe.

Hydrostatic testing:

The pipeline would be tested for leaks following installation. This is termed hydrostatic testing andinvolves filling a section of the pipeline with water and then pressurising it. Approximately 15megalitres of water would be used during hydrostatic testing. Following testing, subject to confirmationof the water quality, the water would be released onto adjoining land with appropriate slope, soil andgroundcover characteristics. Water release occurs through a dewatering structure designed to slowthe flow of water.

1.2.7 Groundwater considerations at the Crib Point Receiving FacilityMost construction activities and infrastructure installed at the Gas Import Jetty Works would be aboveground and are not considered as part of the groundwater study.

Sections of below ground pipeline, including the bored section beneath The Esplanade that starts atthe Crib Point Receiving Facility, are considered part of the pipeline alignment in this groundwaterassessment.

Piling:

The installation of concrete flight auger (CFA) piles beneath the nitrogen tank is proposed at the CribPoint Receiving Facility. The technique involves boring a vertical hole to the required depth usingaugers. Concrete slurry is then pumped through the centre of the augers as they are removed from thehole, thereby backfilling the bored hole with concrete and reducing the potential for hole collapse.

Up to 100 piles, but more likely in the order of 70 piles, are proposed beneath the nitrogen tankmeasuring 25 metres in diameter. The piles would be terminated in competent rock (‘bedrock’) at up to20 metres below ground surface and have a minimum centre-to centre spacing of 2.4 metres(conservatively assuming 100 pile design).

The need for additional piles under the retaining wall or equipment slabs is considered unlikely and notconsidered further.

1.3 Project AreaThe Project Area is situated between Crib Point and Pakenham East in Victoria within the localgovernment areas of Mornington Peninsula Shire, the City of Casey and Cardinia Shire.

The Project Area includes the construction and operation footprints for the Gas Import Jetty Works andthe Pipeline Works. The Project Area also includes the locations of previous pipeline alignment optionsthat were assessed over the course of the EES which are no longer being considered.

The Project Area is detailed in EES Attachment VII Map book. An overview of the Project showing theproposed pipeline alignment and current options is shown in Figure 1-1.

The Gas Import Jetty Works would be located within Western Port at the existing Crib Point Jetty andon land immediately adjacent. The Crib Point Jetty is located within the Port of Hastings and within anarea designated as a wetland of international significance under the Ramsar Convention on Wetlandsof International Importance (the Western Port Ramsar site).

The Pipeline Works would be located on land between the Crib Point Receiving Facility and aconnection point to the VTS east of Pakenham.

The pipeline alignment was selected to minimise impacts on sensitive land uses and where possiblefollows existing pipeline easements.

The pipeline would be located on land used for various purposes including rural residential living, roadcorridors, industry, conservation reserves, hobby farming, horse studs and agriculture. The pipelinewould generally follow the Stony Point rail reserve through Hastings.

Towards Pakenham, the pipeline would cross the Gippsland rail line before reaching the proposedPakenham Delivery Facility adjacent to the Pakenham East rail depot and connecting to the VTS northof the Princes Highway.

1.3.1 Study areaThis groundwater impact assessment includes any intrusive works in the Project Area that mayintersect groundwater, as well as surrounding areas where groundwater levels or groundwater qualitycould be impacted. The groundwater study area includes the pipeline alignment, its options and abuffer area of 200 metres either side of the pipeline, considered sufficient to encompass potentialgroundwater impacts from the Project. The groundwater study area also includes the Crib PointReceiving Facility portion of the Gas Import Jetty Works, where a section of trenching and piling tosupport the facility’s nitrogen storage tank are proposed. The study area is shown in Figure 1-6 below.

To achieve this, 26 shallow groundwater monitoring bores were installed along the pipeline alignmentin December 2018 and January 2019, with all bores developed and gauged. The monitoring networkwas based on:

· targeted bores:

- in low lying parts of the landscape, typically near surface water courses, where shallowgroundwater associated with alluvial sediments might be expected to be encountered

- at sites with the potential to contaminate groundwater (discussed in EES Technical Report EContamination and acid sulfate soils impact assessment)

- based on the various mapped surface geology

· infill bores:

- located along the alignment between targeted bores above to provide coverage along thelength of the proposed pipeline.

A selection of wells with enough water column for sampling and aquifer testing were chosen to providespatial coverage along the alignment, and coverage of the differing lithology encountered (i.e. clay,silty clays, sand etc.).

4.2 Risk assessment methodThe EES scoping requirements for the Project require that a risk-based approach be adopted forassessment of the potential impacts of the Project. A risk assessment was carried out using anapproach that is consistent with Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZS ISO 31000:2018 RiskManagement Process.

The risk assessment process provides a method for:

· facilitating a consistent approach to risk assessment across the various specialist studies in theEES

· identifying key Project risks to inform where detailed investigations are required

· ensuring the level of investigation is proportionate to the relative environmental risk

· assessing the effectiveness of proposed mitigation measures and whether additional measuresmay be required.

Risk can be defined as a combination of:

· the magnitude of potential consequences of an event

· the likelihood of the event occurring.

The risk assessment process developed for the Project involved the assignment of consequence andlikelihood ratings which combined to give an overall risk level for each identified risk.

The initial findings of the impact assessment were used to identify and describe cause-and-effectpathways for the Project to determine links between Project activities and their subsequentenvironmental consequences (known as risk pathways). These risk pathways were identifiedconsidering the assets, values and uses requiring protection identified during the existing conditionsassessment.

Assigning consequence of risksIn this risk assessment, the consequences of a risk occurring were assigned using a consequenceguide. Specific consequence categories were developed considering existing conditions in the studyarea. The consequence rating criteria used in the risk assessment specifically for risks relating togroundwater is shown in Table 4-3.

Assigning likelihood of risksA likelihood rating for each identified risk pathway was assigned using the guide in Table 4-4 below.The likelihood criteria in the risk assessment range across a scale from ‘almost certain’ where ‘theevent is expected to occur in most circumstances or is planned to occur’ to ‘rare’ where ‘the event mayoccur only in exceptional circumstances.’Table 4-4 Likelihood guide

Level Description

Rare The event may occur only in exceptional circumstances

Unlikely The event could occur but is not expected

Possible The event could occur

Likely The event will probably occur in most circumstances

Almost certain The event is expected to occur in most circumstances or is planned to occur

Risk assessment matrix and risk ratingThe consequence and likelihood were combined to arrive at a risk rating, using the risk assessmentmatrix shown in Table 4-5.

Further information about the risk assessment process and the full risk register for the Project isdetailed in EES Attachment III Environmental risk report.

Application of mitigation measuresAn initial set of mitigation measures have been developed as part of this impact assessment. Thesemitigation measures are based on compliance with legislation and standard requirements that aretypically incorporated into the delivery of infrastructure projects of similar type, scale and complexity.

As the Pipeline Works design, construction methodology and operation strategies were wellprogressed at the commencement of this impact assessment, mitigating measures that were alreadyincorporated in the Pipeline Works design were included as initial mitigation measures.

Initial risk ratings were applied to each identified risk pathway assuming that these initial mitigationmeasures were in place.

Additional mitigation measures were developed where the initial risk ratings were categorised asmedium or higher.

The initial and additional mitigation measures have been incorporated into the Project description anddesign (where relevant) by AGL and APA and included in the EMF to effectively manage theenvironmental performance of the Project during construction and operation. See Chapter 25Environmental Management Framework for further detail on how the mitigation measures areproposed to be implemented.

The risk and impact assessment process is iterative. Potential impacts were reassessed after the riskassessment and after mitigation measures were refined. The level of residual risk was reassessedusing the same methodology to confirm the mitigation measure is effective in mitigating or managingpotential impacts, so the Project is able to satisfy the draft evaluation objectives set out in the EESscoping requirements.

4.3 Impact assessment methodPotential impacts to groundwater (quantity and quality) that could arise from the Project have beenidentified for the Pipeline Works and for piling works at the Crib Point Receiving Facility, both in termsof construction and a design life of approximately 60 years for the Pipeline Works and 20 years for theGas Import Jetty Works.

The impact assessment included consideration of drawdown on the watertable from dewatering oftrenched sections and bell holes associated with horizontal boring, the potential for the pipeline to altergroundwater flows in the long term, and the potential for the installation of piles at the Crib PointReceiving Facility to alter groundwater levels, flow and quality.

The method for these estimates is discussed in more detail below and potential groundwater risks areprovided in Table 6-1.

4.3.1 Dewatering drawdown estimatesIf groundwater is intersected by sections of open trench and/or thrust bore bell holes, short-termdewatering (i.e. removal of groundwater) may be required prior to pipeline installation. Drawdown ofgroundwater from dewatering the smaller tie-in bell holes for entry and exit points of mini-HDD andHDD has conservatively been assumed to be the same as that of the thrust bore bell holes whichmeans that the highest level of potential impact is being assessed.

Potential groundwater impacts associated with the EOLSS facility are considered in Section 7.0,however, the depth to groundwater is anticipated to be between five and 10 metres (from VisualisingVictoria’s Groundwater (VVG) website3) and not likely to be intersected.

The Theis (1935) analytical solution was used to conservatively estimate the extent of drawdown (i.e.magnitude of groundwater level decline) induced by the short-term dewatering based on twoscenarios:

i. 100 metres section of open cut trench

ii. thrust bore bell hole and HDD tie-in bell holes.

For the 100 metres open cut trench scenario, a line of pumping bores was used to simulate adrawdown of approximately two metres within the trench. This was achieved by varying the pumpingrate of an individual well and the spacing of wells along the trench section. The cumulative drawdownfrom all wells was then considered at varying distances from the trench after two days of pumping. It isnoted that increasing the length of dewatered trench does not affect the estimated maximumdrawdown distances.

A similar approach was used for the thrust bore bell hole scenario. In this case however, a line ofpumping bores was used along both long edges of the bell hole to simulate a drawdown ofapproximately 3.5 metres within a 10 metre (long) by four metre (wide) by four metre (deep) bell hole.Again, individual pumping rates and well spacing were varied and the cumulative drawdowns atvarying distances from the bell hole were considered after ten days of pumping.

The drawdown estimates, and potential impacts associated with drawdown are discussed inSection 7.0.

4.3.2 Modification of groundwater flow regimeThe potential issue of groundwater flow being restricted by the Pipeline Works during operation(resulting in watertable mounding on the up hydraulic gradient side of the pipeline and watertablereduction on the down hydraulic gradient side of the pipeline) was considered. However, this issuewas not considered further in the risk and impact assessments, as it was not considered to be amaterial impact for the following reasons:

· The trench would be approximately two metres deep along much of the pipeline alignment andonly intersect groundwater along some sections.

· Although the 600 millimetres diameter pipe would impede flow, the surrounding trench is to bebackfilled with the excavated material or bedding sand and, as such, shallow groundwater flowcan be expected to continue across the trench without any material effect on groundwaterlevels.

The potential for piles beneath the nitrogen tank at the Crib Point Receiving Facility to cause changesto groundwater levels, flow and quality was considered and is discussed in Section 7.2.2.

The potential for preferential flow along the pipeline (via higher permeability backfill in the trench)causing a permanent reduction in groundwater levels around the pipeline was also considered and isdiscussed in Section 7.2.1.

5.0 Existing conditionsExisting conditions within the study area are discussed below where they are relevant tounderstanding potential impacts to groundwater as a result of the proposed Project.

5.1 Topography and surface waterThe study area is solely located in the Western Port catchment.

The Western Port catchment varies from the hilly regions near the Bunyip State Park and StrzeleckiRanges to the low lying, flat to undulating terrain of the former Koo Wee Rup swamp with surfacewater draining from these topographic highs to Western Port.

The catchment has an area of around 3,700 square kilometres and contains over 2,200 kilometres ofrivers and creeks. Seventeen waterways enter Western Port including major rivers and creeks such asBunyip, Tarago, Cardinia, Yallock, Lang Lang and Bass River networks, all of which discharge directlyinto the Western Port Ramsar site.

Much of the catchment has been modified to support rural and green wedge land use. Historically, theKoo Wee Rup swamp covered large areas in the Western Port hinterland but was drained fordevelopment and has resulted in a number of watercourses in the lower catchment becomingchannelised drains. Although the area contains a mix of land uses, the predominant land use isagriculture consisting of dairying, grazing and horticulture.

The study area includes coastal floodplains in the lower reaches of the catchment where the relief ismostly low lying and generally flat to gently undulating. The ground surface elevation ranges fromapproximately one to two metres above sea level in the southern portion to 10-25 metres above sealevel over the northern portion, where the gently sloping topography grades up to the north.

5.2 GeologyThe site is located within the Western Port Basin (the Basin) which is a relatively shallow, structurallycontrolled sedimentary basin consisting of sediments and volcanic flows. The western side of theBasin coincides with the Clyde Monocline-Tyabb Fault System and the eastern extent is controlled bythe Heath Hill Fault. Basin sediments pinch out to the north against uplifted basement (SRW, 2010),and extend offshore to the south.

The sediments and volcanic flows of the basin form a multilayered aquifer system which is dominatedby a Tertiary Age sedimentary sequence that thickens to approximately 200 metres in the Koo WeeRup area, and pinches out along Basin margins.

The Tertiary Age sediments are overlain by a relatively thin veneer of Quaternary sediments, includingcoastal and inland dune deposits, swamp and lake deposits and alluvial deposits; although thesesediments thicken to between 10 and 50 metres in the Koo Wee Rup area.

The outcropping units in the study area are shown on Figure A1 (Appendix A) and summarised inTable 5-1 below.

The maximum depth of trench excavations along the pipeline alignment would be three metres (atroad crossings), but more typically would be two metres deep. Where thrust boring is required themaximum depth of entry and exit pit bell holes would be up to four metres deep. The geologyencountered to this depth during the field program is all unconsolidated and includes clay, silt andsand with occasional gravels. Fill overlies this sediment in places. The bore logs are presented inAppendix D.

5.3 HydrogeologyIn the southern portion of the Pipeline Works area, the outcropping geology is predominantlyQuaternary coastal and inland dune deposits, Quaternary alluvial sediments and outcropping UpperTertiary Red Bluff sandstone where the Quaternary sediments are absent. Groundwater is likely to belimited in lateral and vertical extent within the Quaternary sediments. Where Quaternary sedimentsbecome thinner, the watertable aquifer would be formed by the outcropping to sub-cropping weatheredRed Bluff sandstone.

Further north (from approximately kilometric point KP30), the pipeline turns inland towards Pakenhamand the Pipeline Works area is underlain by a thicker sequence of Quaternary swamp and lakesediments associated with floodplains in the Koo Wee Rup area. Here, sediments are likely to be 10 to50 metres thick and include silty clay, silts and clay lenses. Where saturated, they are likely to be lowyielding and have higher salinity groundwater (SRW, 2014).

The final two kilometres or thereabouts of the pipeline (from KP55.0) is inferred to be underlain byoutcropping basalts of the Older Volcanics Lower Tertiary Basalts aquifer. Groundwater levels areinferred to be from 10 to greater than 20 metres below ground surface (mbgs) in this area. Nomonitoring wells were installed in the basalt.

The key hydrogeological units in the study area are summarised in Table 5-1 above.

Regional groundwater flow is from the Basin margins towards Western Port. The presence of shallowaquitards, surface water features and groundwater extraction locally affect depths to groundwater.

Previous environmental investigations carried out at the Crib Point Receiving Facility have includedthe installation of monitoring wells, with groundwater levels encountered between 6.8 and 7.5 mbgs in1997 (CMPS&F, 1997 – as referenced in Jacobs, 2017). Groundwater level gauging, carried out at fivemonitoring bores in March 2017, encountered groundwater at between 6.11 and 8.35 metres belowtop of casing (mbtoc) in the western portion of the Crib Point Facility. Proposed trenching at thislocation and horizontal boring beneath Woolleys Road and The Esplanade are therefore notanticipated to intersect groundwater.

Depth to water was measured in January 2019 at all 26 monitoring wells installed as part of the EESgroundwater investigations. At four of the 26 wells the water level was below the base of the well andthe wells were recorded as being dry. That is, water levels were at least four metres below ground(MW04, MW23, MW17, MW19). Seven of the 26 wells had water levels shallower than two metresbelow ground, which is the typical base of open cut trenched sections. These wells are GW05, MW02,MW05, MW09, MW10, MW21, and MW22. A further five wells had water levels between two and threemetres below ground (GW04, MW07, MW13, MW14, MW15).

See Table B2 (Appendix B) and Figure A1 (Appendix A) for depths to groundwater.

There are no long-term water level data available from the bores installed and therefore, the seasonalwater level fluctuations have not been measured. However, it is typical in shallow, near shore aquifersto have seasonal fluctuations typically in the order of 0.5 metres, but in some instances up to twometres. Water levels tend to be shallowest in late winter and spring and deepest in late summer.Longer term fluctuations also occur due to changes in climate (e.g. drought periods).

The implications of the hydrogeological conditions described above are discussed in Section 7.0.

5.4 Hydraulic conductivityHydraulic conductivity is a measure of how quickly groundwater can flow through the sub-surface. It ishigher in a porous aquifer like sands and lower in fine-grained, clay dominant aquifers. If hydraulicconductivity is very low, the unit is often referred to as an aquitard rather than an aquifer.

Aquifer testing was undertaken in selected bores along the pipeline alignment in order to estimate thehydraulic conductivity, as described in Section 4.1.2. The results are summarised in Table 5-2 below,the slug testing methodology is described in Appendix C, and outputs provided in Appendix E.

28Gas Import Jetty and Pipeline Project Environment Effects StatementTechnical Report D: Groundwater impact assessment

Prepared for – AGL Wholesale Gas Limited and APA Transmission Pty Limited – 60592634

The results show the hydraulic conductivity ranged from 2.6x10-4 to 3.2x10-1 metres per day with ageometric mean of 7.2x10-3 metres per day (8 x10-6 centimetres per second). This broadly classifiesthe aquifer tested and to be intersected by the pipeline as a clay or silty clay (Fetter, 2000).

5.5 Groundwater managementThe central and northern portion of the proposed pipeline alignment falls within the Koo Wee RupWater Supply Protection Area (KWR WSPA), as shown in Figure A1 (Appendix A). The remainder islocated within the general Unincorporated Area.

The KWR WSPA consists of seven sub-zones and includes a Coastal Buffer area. Although no verticallimit has been placed on the depth of the KWR WSPA, it is predominantly applied to the groundwaterresource in the Western Port Group which would not be intersected during construction of the pipeline.

The KWR WSPA is managed via a Groundwater Management Plan (SRW, 2010), which documentsall local management rules including rules on trade, metering, groundwater monitoring, licenses andconsultation. A Permissible Consumptive Volume of 12,915 megalitres per year currently applies tothe KWR WSPA. While no restrictions are placed on current licence holders, no new licences wouldbe issued except for those specified in prescription of the Groundwater Management Plan.

The Unincorporated Area has no groundwater management plans or local restrictions.

It is anticipated that a permit to extract groundwater for trench dewatering during pipeline constructionwould not be required based on discussions between APA and SRW (see Table 4-6).

Page 39: Environment Effects Statement...4.3 Impact assessment method 21 4.3.1 Dewatering drawdown estimates 22 4.3.2 Modification of groundwater flow regime 22 4.4 Assumptions and limitations

29Gas Import Jetty and Pipeline Project Environment Effects StatementTechnical Report D: Groundwater impact assessment

Prepared for – AGL Wholesale Gas Limited and APA Transmission Pty Limited – 60592634

Water would likely be required for the pipeline construction, including for dust suppression andhydrostatic testing of the pipeline. If this water is sourced from groundwater within the KWR WSPA,then a temporary entitlement may need to be purchased from an existing licence holder as the KWRWSPA is fully allocated.

5.6 Groundwater quality and beneficial usesThe aquifer yield (a reflection of its permeability) and salinity (usually measured as total dissolvedsolids in milligrams per litre) of groundwater in the Quaternary sediments of the Upper Aquifer isknown to be highly variable, which reflects the heterogeneity of the soil type (clay, clayey silts/sands),aquifer thickness, and depth to groundwater.

Groundwater salinity was measured in 14 monitoring wells along the pipeline alignment, as describedin Section 4.1.2. The salinity, measured as total dissolved solids (TDS), ranged from 1,253 milligramsper litre at MW07 to 16,414 milligrams per litre at MW11 with an average of 6,334 milligrams per litre.

Previous environmental investigations carried out at the Crib Point Receiving Facility (part of the GasImport Jetty Works area) have indicated a TDS range of 302 to 3,760 mg/L; with an average TDS of1,621.5 mg/L (Jacobs, 2017). This is broadly consistent with regional mapping that indicates a TDSrange of 1,000 and 3,000 mg/L beneath the Crib Point Receiving Facility.

Regional TDS mapping and monitoring well data are presented on Figure A2 (Appendix A) and inTable B3 (Appendix B).

The State Environment Protection Policy (SEPP) (Waters), provides a framework to ‘protect andimprove the quality of Victoria’s waters having regard to the principles of environment protection setout in the Environment Protection Act 1970’. Groundwater segments are classified based onbackground total dissolved solids. Protected beneficial uses are provided for each segment, andgroundwater quality indicators and objectives are established to protect each beneficial use.

Groundwater across the Pipeline and Gas Import Jetty Works area is assumed as Segment B (1,201-3,100 milligrams per litre) based on salinity monitoring well data and regional mapping. The SegmentB beneficial uses to be protected include:

· water dependent ecosystems and species

· agriculture and irrigation (irrigation)

· agriculture and irrigation (stock watering)

· industrial and commercial

· water-based recreation (primary contact recreation)

· traditional owner cultural values

· cultural and spiritual values

· buildings and structures

· geothermal properties.

The implications of the groundwater quality and beneficial uses described above are discussed inSection 7.

5.7 Groundwater useThere are 69 registered groundwater bores in the study area, that is, within 200 metres of the pipelinealignment and options4 (not including the 26 monitoring wells installed as part of the EES groundwaterinvestigations). This includes eight bores designated with a status of ‘not used’. The total depth of the69 registered bores ranges from 5.4 metres below ground to 114.3 metres below ground.

4 Bore search undertaken on 10 January 2019, using the Water Measurement Information System maintained by theDepartment of Environment, Land, Water and Planning.

There is no information available on the aquifer screened by these bores. However, based on thedepths, most are likely screening the Quaternary (QA), Upper Tertiary (UTAF), and Upper Mid Tertiary(UMTA) Aquifers, as highlighted in Table 5-1.

Overall, 48 bores have been identified as being for consumptive purposes, which includes domestic,stock, irrigation, and unknown purposes. The number of bores in each category is summarised inTable 5-3 below.

5.7.1 Groundwater dependent ecosystemsThe Groundwater Dependent Ecosystems Atlas (GDE Atlas) was developed as a national dataset ofAustralian GDEs (http://www.bom.gov.au/water/groundwater/gde/map.shtml).

The Atlas contains information about:

· aquatic ecosystems that rely on the groundwater that discharges to the surface, including rivers,springs and wetlands

· terrestrial ecosystems that rely on the subsurface presence of groundwater, including vegetation

· subterranean ecosystems that live in caves and underground aquifers5.

The mapping is from two broad sources:

· national assessment: national scale assessment based on available geographic informationsystem (GIS) data and a set of rules that describe the potential for groundwater and ecosystemsto interact

5 The GDE Atlas does not contain information regarding subterranean GDESs for Victoria but is not considered relevant to thisstudy based on the geological formations intersected by the Project’s shallow construction activities.

· regional studies: more detailed assessment by state and/or regional agencies using field work,satellite imagery or application of conceptual models.

It is important to note that the identification of potential GDEs in the Atlas does not confirm that aparticular ecosystem is groundwater dependent.

Aquatic GDEsThe pipeline alignment intersects 11 watercourses designated as high potential GDEs through nationalassessment: Warringine Creek, Olivers Creek, Kings Creek, Watson Creek, Langwarrin Creek,Rutherford Creek, Western Outfall Creek, Cardinia Creek, Lower Gum Scrub Creek, Deep Creek andToomuc Creek. It is noted that the Western Port Ramsar site encompasses the last kilometre or so ofWatson Creek where it discharges into Western Port.

Between Crib Point (KP01) and the Pearcedale area (KP30), coastal wetlands described as semi-permanent saline and salt meadow wetlands that are classified as known GDEs (regional study) arewithin one to two kilometres of the pipeline alignment. Between KP19 and KP20, these GDEs fallwithin the study area (approximately 200 metres from the pipeline alignment). A number of high tomoderate potential aquatic GDEs (regional study) described as coastal wetlands/saltmarsh are alsowithin the study area. Between the Crib Point Receiving Facility and Hastings, some coastal saltmarsh(identified as potential aquatic GDEs from the GDE Atlas) are located within the Western Port Ramsarsite.

North of the Pearcedale area, the pipeline alignment turns northeast away from coastal GDEs andtowards Pakenham.

The location of potential GDEs is presented in Figure A3 (Appendix A).

Possible impacts to potential aquatic GDEs are discussed in Section 7.0.

Terrestrial GDEsThere are numerous moderate to high potential terrestrial GDEs (national assessment) that arecrossed by the pipeline alignment, particularly in the southern portion of the Pipeline Works areabetween Crib Point and the Pearcedale area. High potential terrestrial GDEs (national Assessment)are also mapped as being adjacent to the Crib Point Receiving Facility (part of the Gas Import Jettyworks). The potential GDEs include woodland, coastal saltmarsh, swamp scrub and salt meadows.Between the Crib Point Receiving Facility and Hastings, some coastal saltmarsh (identified aspotential terrestrial GDEs from the GDE Atlas) are located within the Western Port Ramsar site.

The location of potential GDEs is presented in Figure A3 (Appendix A).

Possible impacts to potential terrestrial GDEs are discussed in Section 7.0.

5.8 Groundwater - surface water interactionsSome watercourses and waterbodies receive groundwater discharge (termed ‘gaining’). A gainingwatercourse is typically perennial meaning that it flows even during low rainfall periods. However, anephemeral watercourse can also be gaining for short periods following a rainfall event and then dry up.Some watercourse and waterbodies act as recharge sources to groundwater (termed ‘losing’).Watercourses can change from gaining to losing over time and over short distances.

Where a watercourse is identified in the GDE Atlas as a potential GDE, this means that it is potentiallya gaining watercourse, that is, relying on groundwater to some extent. This includes the followingwatercourses that cross the pipeline alignment: Warringine Creek, Olivers Creek, Kings Creek,Watson Creek, Langwarrin Creek, Rutherford Creek, Western Outfall Creek, Cardinia Creek, LowerGum Scrub Creek, Deep Creek, and Toomuc Creek.

National mapping of major streams is available through the Australian Hydrological Geospatial FabricSurface Hydrology Catchments dataset. The available data is presented in Figure A3 (Appendix A)and shows that Toomuc Creek, which crosses the pipeline at approximately KP41, is a gainingwatercourse. This is consistent with the GDE Atlas mapping described above.

5.9 Summary: hydrogeological conceptual modelThe watertable in the study area is generally shallow (less than four metres below ground) and liesmostly within Quaternary sediments and Tertiary Red Bluff Sandstone. The water levels in mostmonitoring wells installed along the pipeline alignment are deeper than the depth of the pipeline trench(typically two metres). There is no Project specific monitoring data available on seasonal groundwaterlevel fluctuations. However, fluctuations of up to 0.5 to two metres are typical in comparable shallowgroundwater environments. Water levels tend to be shallowest in late winter and spring and deepest inlate summer. It is noted that the impact assessment conservatively assumes that the watertable iswithin 0.5 metres of ground surface during construction (Section 7.0).

Drilling along the pipeline alignment shows the shallow geology is mostly fine grained (clay andclay/silt) with occasional sands and gravelly sands. The hydraulic conductivity measured in shallowmonitoring wells is generally low (geometric mean of 0.007 metres per day) but up to 0.3 metres perday.

There are numerous potential aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems that may rely on groundwater,particularly in the southern portion of the study area. Groundwater may also discharge into streams.

There are 43 bores registered for consumptive uses (including irrigation, stock and domestic) withinthe study area (that is, within 200 metres of the pipeline).

The implications of the hydrogeological data presented in this section are discussed in Section 7.0,addressing potential impacts of the Project on groundwater.

6.0 Risk assessmentAn assessment of hydrogeology risks posed by the Project was undertaken in accordance with themethod described in Section 4.2. The initial and residual groundwater risks associated with the Projectare summarised in Table 6-1.

The initial risk ratings presented below consider an initial set of mitigation measures (where relevant),which are based on compliance with legislation and standard requirements that are typicallyincorporated into the delivery of infrastructure projects of similar type, scale and complexity. Riskratings were applied to each of the identified risk pathways assuming that these mitigation measureswere in place.

Except for the potential for damage or loss of registered bores during construction which was identifiedas a medium risk, all other initial risk ratings relating to groundwater were determined to be very low orlow with initial mitigation measures in place. With the inclusion of a number of additional mitigationmeasures, the subsequent residual risk ratings were determined to be low or very low.

37Gas Import Jetty and Pipeline Project Environment Effects StatementTechnical Report D: Groundwater impact assessment

Prepared for – AGL Wholesale Gas Limited and APA Transmission Pty Limited – 60592634

7.0 Impact assessmentThis section of the report provides more detail on the potential groundwater impacts that wereidentified in the risk assessment outlined in Section 6.0. The groundwater impacts are associated withthe construction and operation of the Project, and draw on data presented in Section 5.0, dealing withexisting conditions. Impacts associated with contamination and acid sulfate soils are discussed in EESTechnical Report E: Contamination and acid sulfate soils impact assessment.

Section 8.0 provides details on the mitigation measures outlined in the risk assessment that wouldmanage potential impacts.

7.1 ConstructionThe potential groundwater impacts during the construction and installation phases of the PipelineWorks and the Gas Import Jetty Works are listed below and assessed in the following sections:

· reduction of groundwater levels (drawdown) from dewatering activities that:

- impact water levels in nearby bores

- affect groundwater availability to GDEs

- affect creek/river base flow

- cause subsidence

- cause saline intrusion.

· overland flow impacting groundwater quality, via trenches that are open

· change in groundwater quality from use of HDD drilling fluids

· water supply for dust suppression and hydrostatic (pressure) testing of the pipeline

· loss, damage or inaccessibility of registered bores during construction

· interconnection of aquifers with different groundwater quality and protected beneficial uses duringpiling installation at the Crib Point Receiving Facility.

7.1.1 Drawdown estimates from dewatering (relevant to Risk IDs HG1, HG2, HG3)The impact assessment is based on the estimated maximum drawdown that may occur because ofconstruction dewatering if shallow groundwater was encountered during construction. The method toestimate this drawdown is described in Section 4.3.1, which is a Theis analytical solution using anumber of conservative input assumptions.

A summary of the estimates of drawdown on the watertable are provided in Table 7-1 and furtherdetails are included in Appendix F.Table 7-1 Summary of drawdown estimates

The approach is considered a reasonable estimate of the maximum drawdown for the followingreasons:

38Gas Import Jetty and Pipeline Project Environment Effects StatementTechnical Report D: Groundwater impact assessment

Prepared for – AGL Wholesale Gas Limited and APA Transmission Pty Limited – 60592634

· The assumption of a one per cent storage coefficient used in the unconfined aquifer scenario,which is considered a highly conservative value for the type of clayey dominant materials to beencountered. A higher value of storage coefficient would result in lesser drawdown impacts.

· The assumption of 0.3 metres per day (m/day) hydraulic conductivity, which is the upper end ofthe values estimated from site-specific rising head tests (discussed in Section 5.4).

· The assumed depths of water in the trench scenario (two metres) and bell hole (3.5 metres) are aconservative estimate of anticipated conditions, based on measured groundwater levels along thealignment (measured at end-January 2019).

· As part of the construction schedule, the duration of dewatering is anticipated to be less than twodays at trenched sections and HDD tie-in bell holes, and less than 10 days at thrust bore bellholes. Typically, the volume of water in the open trench or bell hole would be removed and thepipeline installed within one day and before additional dewatering is required.

The potential implications of these drawdown estimates on registered bore users, potential GDEs andsaline intrusion are discussed in the following sections.

7.1.2 Impacts on groundwater levelsRegistered groundwater bore users (Risk ID HG1)Dewatering of the trench and bell holes (thrust bore and HDD tie-in locations) has the potential totemporarily reduce groundwater levels and reduce the available drawdown in nearby groundwaterbores.

Typically, dewatering of excavations is avoided or minimised as much as practicable to reduce the riskof destabilising the trench and bell holes, and to reduce the volume of discharged water to bemanaged. Impacts to groundwater levels and flow would therefore likely be temporary and limited inmagnitude and extent; based on the predominantly low permeability soils (silts and clays), shallowdepth of excavations and short-term dewatering activities.

A reasonable worst case scenario of a high watertable, with dewatering limited to two days (fortrenching) and ten days (thrust bore and HDD bell holes) provided an estimate for the extent andmagnitude of water level reduction away from the excavation (sometimes called the cone ofdepression). The maximum extent of drawdown has been estimated following the method described inSection 4.1.2. The results are attached as Appendix H. The results suggest that drawdown wouldextend up to 30 metres from the trenched pipeline sections and around 60 metres from bell holes(thrust bore and HDD tie-in locations), even under the ‘worst case’6 scenario.

There are four bores within 30 metres of trenched sections of the pipeline alignment that areregistered for consumptive use. Location and construction information for these four bores issummarised in Table 7-2. The locations of these bores are shown in Figure A3 (Appendix A).

There are no bores registered for consumptive use within 60 metres of thrust bore bell holes or HDDtie-in bell holes. It is noted that bore WRK992476 is located in the north western portion of the CribPoint Receiving Facility, approximately 55 metres from the proposed entry and exit bell holes of thethrust bore proposed beneath The Esplanade roadway. The WMIS database status of the bore is ‘notused’ and its purpose/use is stated as unknown. Given the ‘not used’ status and likely intended use asa monitoring bore, this it is not considered a ‘consumptive bore’ for the purposes of the riskassessment.

6 Assuming the highest hydraulic conductivity value measured (0.3 metres per day), and two days of dewatering to the base ofthe trench (2 metres deep) or ten days of dewatering to the base of thrust bore pits (four metres deep). See Appendix H forfurther details.

The closest groundwater monitoring wells to bore WRK070589 are MW17 (965 m to the southwest)and MW18 (1.8 km to the northeast). Monitoring well MW17 was recorded as being dry (that is, thedepth to water was greater than four metres below ground), and the depth to water was measured as3.92 metres below ground surface (mbgs) at MW18. Therefore, the trench is unlikely to intersectgroundwater in this area during construction, and there should be no need to dewater near boreWRK070589. Based on this, no adverse impact on groundwater availability is anticipated for this user.

The closest monitoring well to bore 91465 is MW15 (300 m to the northeast), where a water level of2.24 mbgs was measured. Based on the pipeline trench depth of two metres, it is anticipated thatconstruction dewatering would not be required in that location, and no adverse impact on groundwateravailability is anticipated for this groundwater user. If groundwater levels are higher duringconstruction, and are intersected by open trenching, the conservative estimate of a 30 metredrawdown extent (based on two metres of water in the trench) means that adverse impacts ongroundwater availability for this user would still not be anticipated.

Bore 121049 (at 47.8 metres deep) and bore 142356 (at 42.6 metres deep) are both relatively deepbores and unlikely to be impacted by dewatering of shallow trench sections (if it were required). Theclosest monitoring well to these bores is MW08, located 135 m northeast of bore 121049 and 430metres northeast of bore 142356. The depth to water at MW08 was measured at 3.5 mbgs. Groundelevations at bores 112049 and 142356 are approximately 2.5 metres higher than at MW08, andtherefore groundwater levels at these locations are anticipated to be several metres below the base oftrench – generally assumed to be two mbgs. The need for dewatering is unlikely, and adverse impactson groundwater availability are not anticipated for this groundwater user. The potential for loss,damage or lack of access to these bores during construction is considered in Section 7.1.5.

Overall, the risk of adversely impacting registered bores due to dewatering of trenched sections, thrustbore bell holes and HDD tie-in bell holes is considered to be very low. Limiting the dewatering durationwhere practicable to do so would limit the cone of depression and the potential for effects ongroundwater to significantly impact on groundwater users (including at groundwater bores).

Depth to groundwater beneath the EOLSS facility is estimated to be five to 10 metres on VisualisingVictoria’s Groundwater (VVG) website7. Groundwater is not anticipated to be intersected given thatEOLSS excavations would be up to 3.5 metres deep only. The nearest registered groundwater bore(ID 84052) is approximately 200 metres southwest of the facility, where the ground surface elevation(approximately 41 mAHD) is below the base of the proposed EOLSS excavation (estimated to be47 mAHD). Therefore, any reduction in groundwater levels from dewatering of the EOLSS (if required)would not impact on the groundwater availability from the bore.

Groundwater dependent ecosystems and watercourses (Risk ID HG2)Dewatering of the trench, HDD tie-in bell holes and thrust bore pits has the potential to temporarilyreduce water levels beneath terrestrial GDEs that transpire groundwater, or to temporarily reducegroundwater inflows into gaining streams.

Typically, dewatering of excavations is avoided or minimised as much as practicable to reduce the riskof destabilising the trench and bell holes, and to reduce the volume of discharged water to be

managed. Impacts to groundwater levels and flow would therefore likely be temporary and limited inmagnitude and extent; based on the predominantly low permeability soils (silts and clays), shallowdepth of excavations and short-term dewatering activities.

A reasonable worst case scenario of a high watertable, with dewatering limited to two days (fortrenching) and ten days (thrust bore and HDD bell holes) provided an estimate for the extent andmagnitude of water level reduction away from the excavation (sometimes called the cone ofdepression). The drawdown due to dewatering would only extend up to around 30 metres fromtrenched pipeline sections and up to around 60 metres from thrust bore bell holes and HDD tie-in bellholes, even under the ‘reasonable worst case’ scenario described in Section 4.3.1.

Eleven watercourses that cross the pipeline alignment have been identified as high potential aquaticGDEs from national assessment (that is, gaining streams). Information collected on these streams issummarised in Table 7-3, based on Table 5-1 in EES Technical Report C: Surface water impactassessment.

Of the potentially gaining streams listed in Table 7-3, trenching is only proposed at Olivers Creek andWestern Outfall Creek, neither of which have been identified as having intact vegetation. Anyreduction in groundwater levels from trench dewatering would be temporary in nature (less than aweek) and limited in extent (less than 0.8 metres at ten metres from the trench - conservativelyassuming two metres drawdown at the trench). HDD is proposed at all potentially gaining streams withintact vegetation identified. For HDD the potential for drawdown effects are associated with dewateringat HDD tie-in bell-holes. Any reduction in groundwater levels from dewatering would be temporary innature (less than 2 days) and limited in extent (less than 0.1 metres at 25 metres - conservativelyassuming two metres of drawdown at the HDD tie-in bell hole).Table 7-3 Watercourse assessment summary for gaining streams

There are other potential terrestrial GDEs within the estimated extents of drawdown associated withtrenching and bell holes (including within the construction ROW) where groundwater levels may bereduced due to short-term dewatering activities (see Figure A3, Appendix A). It is noted that thepotential aquatic and terrestrial GDEs that fall within the Western Port Ramsar site, between the CribPoint Receiving Facility and Hastings, are beyond the potential dewatering impact zone estimated inSection 7.1.1.

The BOM GDE Atlas also identifies low to moderate potential terrestrial GDEs (swampy woodland)more than 200 metres east and west of the EOLSS. As discussed above, groundwater is notanticipated to be intersected by EOLSS excavations, and further, the base of the EOLSS excavation(estimated to be 47 mAHD) is above the ground surface of these potential GDEs. Therefore, they

41Gas Import Jetty and Pipeline Project Environment Effects StatementTechnical Report D: Groundwater impact assessment

would not be impacted by any reduction in groundwater levels from dewatering of the EOLSS (ifrequired).

Potential impacts on aquatic and/or terrestrial GDEs from reduced groundwater levels (if any) wouldbe temporary in nature and of limited lateral extent, and the potential risk to GDEs is considered to below. Limiting the dewatering duration, where practicable to do so, would limit the cone of depressionand the potential for effects on groundwater to significantly impact on groundwater users (includingGDEs).

Potential impacts on GDEs are also discussed in EES Technical Report B: Terrestrial and freshwaterbiodiversity impact assessment.

Saline intrusion (Risk ID HG3)In coastal areas, fresher (less saline) groundwater, sometimes known as the ‘freshwater lens’, sits ontop of saline groundwater. This saline groundwater is in connection with seawater and is sometimescalled the salt wedge.

Pumping significant volumes of groundwater in coastal areas can produce long-term reductions ingroundwater levels in the fresher water, such that upward flow from the underlying salt wedge occurs.This can then increase salinity within the freshwater lens and may impact on groundwater boresand/or GDEs.

The pipeline alignment is within around 150 metres of Western Port (at MW10) in some places andtherefore the potential for saline intrusion has been considered.

As a rule of thumb, for every metre of freshwater lens thickness above sea level (or metres AustralianHeight Datum (mAHD)), the freshwater lens extends 40 metres below sea level - due to the density offreshwater compared to that of seawater8. Along the pipeline closest to the coast this would equate toa freshwater lens approximately 30 metres thick (based on groundwater elevations of 0.89 mAHD atMW10 and 0.69 mAHD at MW11). As discussed in Section 7.1.1, construction dewatering activities fortrench sections and bell holes would lead to localised, small scale (up to 0.1 metres at 60 metres fromexcavation) and temporary reductions in groundwater levels due to the shallow depth of dewatering(typically less than three metres) and short-term duration of dewatering events (up to ten days).Therefore, adverse impacts to groundwater users due to induced lateral flow from the coast (at least150 metres away) or upward flow from the underlying salt wedge (at a depth of approximately 30metres) are not anticipated. The overall risk is considered to be very low.

7.1.3 Impacts on groundwater qualityDrilling muds (Risk ID HG4)Drilling mud would be used to install the pipeline where HDD is used. If the drilling mud containscontaminants, this could potentially impact groundwater quality and beneficial uses surrounding HDDlocations.

The uncontrolled loss event of drilling muds is considered unlikely, and any impacts would bemanaged and localised, when a suitably qualified and experienced HDD contractor is used. Thepotential effects on groundwater quality could be further reduced if non-toxic and biodegradable drillingmuds are used where possible. The primary clay used for drilling mud is bentonite (sodiummontmorillonite), a non-toxic, naturally occurring mineral clay, which is added to fresh water toproduce a ‘mud’

Therefore, drilling muds to be used in the Pipeline Works should be biodegradable and non-toxicwhere geotechnically practicable, and a suitably qualified and experienced contractor would supervisethe HDD sections. Therefore, the risk of drilling muds impacting groundwater quality is considered tobe very low.

Overland flow to groundwater (Risk ID HG5)If there is a significant rainfall event while trench sections or bell holes are open (prior to backfilling)runoff could flow into the excavation. This runoff water could be of low quality (such as having elevatednutrient concentrations) and potentially infiltrate into groundwater near the trench. The highestpotential for this to occur is at or near trench crossing of waterways where greater surface water flowwould be expected due to drainage patterns, and there is potential for higher hydraulic conductivitysediments associated with the waterway.

Trenched water crossings should be installed during no flow or low flow conditions wherever possible,when there is typically less overland flow anticipated. If overland flow enters the trench, impacts ongroundwater quality would be limited. This is due to the predominantly clay dominant soils in thePipeline Works area, and therefore limited ability for runoff via the trench to move laterally into thesurrounding groundwater prior to the trench being dewatered following such an event.

The potential to impact groundwater quality from this already low risk event can be further reduced byminimising the duration for which excavations remain open. Overall, the risk is considered to be verylow.

Interconnection of aquifers during piling (Risk ID HG8)During augering of the piling hole, and prior to the placement of concrete slurry for piling as part of theGas Import Jetty Works, there is the potential to interconnect aquifers with different water qualityleading to the loss of beneficial uses or effecting groundwater users in one or more aquifers.

Regional geology indicates that the Crib Point Receiving Facility is underlain by Baxter Sandstone ofthe upper tertiary aquifer, which is typically greater than 20 metres thick (see Table 5-1). Overlyingalluvial sediments (if present) would be thin and of limited saturated thickness. The potential formultiple aquifers being intersected across the 20-metre depth of piling is considered unlikely, and thevariability of groundwater quality is not anticipated to be material in terms of beneficial uses. Further,the interconnection of aquifers (if any) would be of short duration - being limited to the time taken todrill up to 20-metres deep and pump in concrete slurry.

Overall, the risk of interconnecting aquifers and impacting groundwater quality such that beneficialuses and/or groundwater users are affected in one or more aquifers is considered to be low.

7.1.4 Water supply (Risk ID HG6)Water would likely be required during the pipeline construction phase, including for dust suppressionand hydrostatic (pressure) testing of the pipeline. If this water is sourced from groundwater within theKWR WSPA, then a temporary entitlement may need to be purchased from an existing licence holderas the WSPA is fully allocated.

All relevant legislation and policy requirements regarding sourcing of water for construction supplywould be adhered to. The risk of a groundwater supply for the Project adversely impactinggroundwater users is considered very low.

7.1.5 Loss of registered bores (Risk ID HG7)Registered bores within, or near, the construction footprints of the alignment or alignment options havethe potential to be damaged, lost (i.e. destroyed), or to become inaccessible during construction. Asummary of registered bores within thirty metres of the alignment or alignment options is provided inTable 7-4. Access to other registered bores outside the ROW may also be temporarily affected duringconstruction if access is prevented or made more difficult.

Following detailed design, the location of registered bores relative to the ROW could be visuallyconfirmed on site. Prior to construction, the potential for impacts to existing bores (for exampledamage or loss of access) could then be confirmed in consultation with the landowner.

In instances where a landholder bore is deemed to be impacted by the Project, consultation canfacilitate agreement between AGL and APA and landholder.

7.2 OperationThe risk assessment presented in Section 6.0 identified one potential operational risk pathway fromthe Project, being a change in groundwater flow from intersection of backfill material. This potentialimpact is discussed in the following section.

7.2.1 Preferential flow paths (Risk ID HG9)If the hydraulic conductivity (a property of soils and rocks that describes the ease with which a fluidcan move through pore spaces or fractures) of backfill material surrounding the pipe is higher than thesurrounding undisturbed soils, this could create a preferential flow path (where groundwater flowsfaster through the backfill material than in surrounding material). There is a risk that this could create adrainage-like feature that may result in a permanent reduction in groundwater level along the pipelinealignment, most significantly where the trench intersects alluvial sediments at water crossings therebyallowing preferential flow along the trench to discharge into the potentially higher conductivity alluvialchannel sediments.

The consequence of this occurring is that there may be a permanent reduction in groundwater levelsthat could impact groundwater dependent ecosystems close to the pipeline alignment and/or reducegroundwater discharge to gaining streams crossing the pipeline. It could also provide a pathway forcontaminant migration, which is discussed in EES Technical Report E: Contamination and acid sulfatesoils impact assessment. A preferential pathway becomes more significant where the trench backfill iscoarse grained as water is more readily able to move through this medium, or where the fall of thetrench is steep and there is a point of discharge out of the trench - for example where the trenchintersects alluvial sediments beneath a watercourse.

The preferred construction methodology for the pipeline trench is to backfill with the excavated nativematerial after being screened to keep rocks and other deleterious material away from the pipe coatingto avoid defects which would lead to corrosion. The fines are used for bedding and padding and theremainder is backfilled on top of the fines and compacted in layers. This could result in a change inhydraulic conductivity immediately surrounding the pipe. Packing sands, which would have a higherhydraulic conductivity, would only be used to backfill short sections of the trench, for example beneathroads. Backfill, whether excavated or imported, should be placed and compacted such that thepermeability is similar to the unexcavated material (as per AS/NZS 2885.19).

To manage the potential impact of a preferential flow path being established along the pipeline trench,trench breakers (that is, lower permeability material backfilled around the pipeline) should be installed

in sections of trench where the pipe has a steeper fall and at overbends – which includes at trenchedwatercourse crossings.

The use of native material to backfill the trench in most locations and the shallow fall of the trenchalong much of the alignment would reduce the likelihood of a significantly higher hydraulic conductivitysurrounding the pipeline. The use of trench breakers at trenched waterway crossings would alsoreduce preferential flow by impeding preferential flow out of the trench at these locations and reducethe likelihood of impact to gaining streams that cross the pipeline alignment.

7.2.2 Impeded groundwater flow paths due to piles (Risk ID HG10)Groundwater flow could be impeded by the presence of piles at the Crib Point Receiving Facilityleading to changes in groundwater levels and groundwater flow direction. This could potentially resultin impacts such as the reduction of groundwater flow to GDEs, exposure of acid sulfate soils downhydraulic gradient of piles (due to groundwater level decreases) and raising saline/brackishgroundwater into the soil zone.

The magnitude of changes to the groundwater regime depends on several factors, including the extentto which the aquifer perpendicular to groundwater flow has been impeded by the piles. If it isconservatively assumed that 100 piles are required beneath the nitrogen tank, the centre-to-centrespacing of the 600 mm diameter piles would be 2.4 metres. This would equate to approximately 40 percent (or 10 metres) of the 25-metre wide section of aquifer beneath the nitrogen tank being impededby piles. If the width of aquifer perpendicular to groundwater flow is considered for the Crib PointReceiving Facility (i.e. approximately 120 metres) the piles would block the equivalent of nine per centof the aquifer through which groundwater flow is occurring (from west to east). It is thereforeanticipated that groundwater would flow around the piled section and/or through the spacing betweenthe piles with negligible effect on groundwater levels and flow.

Overall, the risk of piling beneath the nitrogen tank adversely impacting groundwater levels, flow orquality is considered to be very low.

8.0 Recommended mitigation measuresThis section outlines the recommended mitigation measures for groundwater identified as a result ofthe risk and impact assessment.

The recommended mitigation measures listed in Table 8-1 combine the initial and additional mitigationmeasures applied during the risk assessment to arrive at recommended mitigation measures for thedesign, construction and operation of the Gas Import Jetty Works and the Pipeline Works.

In the course of finalising this technical report, consultation was undertaken with AGL and APA andother members of the team (designers, contractors and other specialists) so that the recommendedmitigation measures would be achievable and compatible with those proposed by other specialists.

The recommended mitigation measures have been refined as a result of these discussions and shouldbe incorporated into the EMF, which would be implemented as described in Chapter 25 EnvironmentalManagement Framework through the Project approvals to effectively manage the environmentalperformance of the Project.

In addition to the groundwater mitigation measures recommended in Table 8-1, mitigation measures toavoid, minimise and mitigate impacts to groundwater are also recommended as per:

9.0 ConclusionThis groundwater impact assessment has been undertaken to determine the potential impacts of theProject on groundwater levels, flow and quality, and to identify recommended management andmitigation options where appropriate in order to reduce risks of the Project.

Potential impacts on groundwater quality from the Project are considered in EES Technical Report E:Contamination and acid sulfate soils impact assessment.

9.1 Impact assessment summaryPotential impacts on groundwater levels, flow and quality within the groundwater study area wereidentified for construction and operational phases. The potential for loss, damage or inaccessibility ofregistered bores during construction of the pipeline was also considered.

For the Pipeline Works several potential construction impacts were related to the reduction ingroundwater levels if dewatering activities are required with the subsequent potential to affectregistered bore users, GDEs and induce saline intrusion. The other potential groundwater impactswere related to potential groundwater quality impacts from HDD drilling muds, poor quality overlandflow entering open trenches. For the Gas Import Jetty Works the potential interconnection of aquifersduring auger drilling for piling was considered.

The groundwater impact assessment found limited potential for impacts on groundwater levels andflow during the operational phase of the Project. For the Pipeline Works the risk of permanentlyreduced groundwater levels due to the drainage effects of preferential flow paths within the trench wasconsidered. For the Gas Import Jetty Works the potential changes in groundwater levels and flow dueto the installation of piles at the Crib Point Receiving Facility were considered.

Overall, construction and operation of the Pipeline Works present limited risks to groundwater due tothe shallow depth of trenching and horizontal boring, the short duration of dewatering activities (wheregroundwater is intersected) and clay and silt dominated nature of the materials likely to beencountered. Where dewatering is required the reductions in groundwater levels are estimated to beof limited magnitude, lateral extent and duration.

Risks to groundwater from piling as part of the Gas Import Jetty Works (at the Crib Point ReceivingFacility) were also considered to be low to very low due to the relatively small piling footprint, spacingof pilings and short duration auger drilling.

9.2 Residual riskThe risk of potential impacts on groundwater were identified as being low or very low, and it wasconcluded that the Project is consistent with the scoping requirements and the draft evaluationobjective with respect to potential impacts on groundwater levels, quality and flow from constructionand operational activities with mitigation measures that are commonly applied and have proveneffective in major construction projects in place. Additional mitigation measures were applied to anumber of risks to further reduce the already moderate to low initial risk ratings.

Field Program and Data Analysis Methodology

Groundwater monitoring well installation The groundwater monitoring well installation methodology is summarised in Table 1 below. The locations of the groundwater monitoring wells are shown on Figure A1 (Appendix A). Table 1 Groundwater monitoring well installation methodology

Activity Details Service location Service location was undertaken by the following contractors:

• QEST Environmental between 29 November 2018 and 4 December 2018 • JULS Projects from between 8 January 2019 and 10 January 2019.

Drilling method All locations were cleared and drilled by Southwestern Drilling between 3 December 2018 and 11 January 2019. The monitoring well locations were cleared using non-destructive drilling to a minimum of 1.5 meters below ground level, and drilling was then advanced using solid stem augers to the target depth.

Soil logging Bore logs and monitoring well construction is presented in Appendix C. Monitoring Bore construction

All monitoring bores were drilled to a depth of 4 meters below ground level. Wells were installed using nominal 50 millimetre diameter Class 18 PVC casing and were screened with machine-slotted (0.5 millimetre slot) PVC across the water table between 1 and 4 meters below ground level. A sand filter pack (8/16 inch washed quartz sand) was installed in the bore annulus across the screen and at least 0.1 meters above the top of the screen. Above this, a bentonite seal was installed and hydrated to 0.1 meter below the surface. The annulus was then grouted to surface level and either a flush gatic (14 in total) or stick-up monument (12 in total) was installed.

Well development Post installation, the groundwater monitoring wells were developed by purging three bore volumes or until dry with a dedicated disposable bailer. All wells were developed within one week of installation.

Well survey All monitoring bores were surveyed on 30 January 2019. Survey data is presented in Table B1 (Appendix B).

Groundwater gauging and sampling The groundwater gauging and sampling methodology is summarised in Table 2 below. Table 2 Groundwater gauging and sampling methodology

Activity Details Groundwater gauging

All groundwater wells (26 locations) were gauged using an oil-water interface meter for depth to groundwater and total depth on 30 January 2019. The groundwater gauging data is presented in Table B2 (Appendix B).

Groundwater sampling dates

A total of 14 wells were sampled between 23 January 2019 and 30 January 2019. Groundwater sampling was conducted in wells GW04, GW05, MW01-MW03, MW05, MW07, MW09-MW11, MW14, MW15, MW21, and MW22. The remaining wells did not have sufficient water column to collect a sample.

Groundwater sampling method

Groundwater samples were collected using the following methods: • at well MW10: low flow sampling following the standard procedure (less

than 10 centimetre drawdown in the water column) • at wells MW02, MW03, MW05, MW07, GW04, GW05, MW09, MW11,

MW14, MW15, MW21 and MW22: recharge was too low for low flow

Page 71: Environment Effects Statement...4.3 Impact assessment method 21 4.3.1 Dewatering drawdown estimates 22 4.3.2 Modification of groundwater flow regime 22 4.4 Assumptions and limitations

2

Activity Details sampling, so 50% of the well volume was purged with the low flow pump and samples were collected the following day (within 24 hours1) using low flow sampling techniques

• at well MW01: the water column was insufficient to use low flow sampling, so a grab sample was collected using a disposable bailer.

Ex-situ measurements of groundwater field chemistry (pH, electrical conductivity, dissolved oxygen, oxidation reduction potential, and temperature) were collected during low-flow purging. Where samples were collected the following day, in-situ measurements of groundwater field chemistry were collected prior to sampling. Field quality parameters collected during sampling are presented in Table B3 (Appendix B).

Sample preservation

All samples were collected into the appropriately preserved bottles as provided by the laboratory. Samples were stored on ice in a cooler box while on site and in transit to the laboratory for analysis. Samples for dissolved metals were field filtered with a single-use Stericup 0.45 micrometre filter to remove suspended solids and colloids and collected in laboratory-provided sample collection bottles containing acid for stabilisation/preservation.

Sample analysis All primary samples were submitted to Australian Laboratory Services for the following analysis: • dissolved metals • major ions • total dissolved solids • nutrients (nitrate, ammonia, and total phosphorus) • chromium (IV) • total recoverable hydrocarbons • benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes and naphthalene • volatile organic compounds and semivolatile organic compounds • per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances – low level suite (28 analytes) (GW04

and GW05 only). Quality control The following samples were submitted for quality control purposes:

• two duplicate samples, five equipment rinsate blanks, and five trip blanks to Australian Laboratory Services; and

• two inter-laboratory samples (field triplicate) to Eurofins Environment Testing Australia.

Decontamination procedure

The interface probe and low flow pump were washed in Liquinox solution and rinsed with potable water and deionised water between wells. Low flow bladders, low flow tubing and bailers were dedicated for each well.

Disposal of purged groundwater

Purged groundwater collected during sampling was discharged to ground given the minor volumes purged during sampling.

Equipment calibration

The water quality meter used to collect groundwater parameters was calibrated daily prior to sampling.

1 Except at MW21 and MW22 where samples were collected 6 days after purging due to weather constraints on sampling.

Aquifer testing The aquifer testing methodology is summarised in Table 3 below. Table 3 Aquifer testing methodology

Activity Details Dates of aquifer testing

Aquifer hydraulic testing (rising head slug tests) was conducted between 21 January 2019 and 25 January 2019. The tests were conducted in groundwater wells MW01-MW03, MW05, MW07, GW04, GW05, MW09-MW11, MW14, MW15, MW21, and MW22, where sufficient water column was available.

Aquifer testing methodology

The slug testing methodology is summarised below: • Depth to groundwater from the top of casing reference point was

measured prior to any disturbance within each of the wells. • An electronic pressure transducer was lowered into the well to monitor

groundwater pressure head at intervals of 10 seconds during testing. • A 35 millimetre diameter bailer of known volume (0.975 litres) was then

lowered into the well, completely submerged where the water column was sufficient and then removed, displacing the water level by approximately 0.5 metres. Where a full bailer was not removed, the bailer volume removed was measured on site and noted.

• Water levels were monitored manually (as well as by transducer) until 90% recovery had occurred (that is, the water level recovered to within 10% of the static water level prior to displacement). Where levels did not recover sufficiently due to site access and timing constraints, pressure transducers were removed after greater than four hours.

• Data from the electronic transducers was compared to manual measurements as part of the data quality assessment.

Tidal influence methodology

Pressure transducers were installed in MW01-MW03 for approximately seven days to determine whether there was potential for tidal influence in the southern portion of the alignment. Tidal influence was not observed in the monitoring wells.

Aquifer testing data analysis

Raw data from the slug tests are presented in Appendix G. The data shows oscillations of the water level during removal of the bailer volume and is considered to exhibit a slight under-damped response. This is reasonable when considering a test well of small diameter within a sandy aquifer. Data was cleaned and processed using AQTESOLV Pro version 4.50, an industry standard program. The Bouwer and Rice Method slug-test analysis method was adopted due to its applicability on partially penetrating, unconfined aquifer systems. The Bower and Rice equation is:

Activity Details

• the aquifer thickness was estimated to be the total depth of the monitoring well at each location

• the ratio of vertical to horizontal hydraulic conductivity was 0.1. AQTESOLV output results are provided in Appendix G.

Data Quality The data quality assessment methodology is summarised in Table 4 below. The data validation report is presented in Appendix F. Table 4 Data quality assessment methodology

Activity/Item Details Data quality analysis

Quality assurance and control measures were incorporated into the sampling and analysis work so that the data quality objectives could be achieved and to demonstrate accuracy, precision, comparability, representativeness, and completeness with regard to the data generated.

Data quality indicators

The data quality indicators adopted are based upon data validation guidance documents published by Standards Australia and the National Environment Protection Council. These include the Guide to the Investigation and Sampling of Sites with Potentially Contaminated Soil (AS 4482.1-2005), Schedule B2 Site Characterisation (NEPC 1999, amended 2013) and Schedule B3 Laboratory Analysis of Potentially Contaminated Soils (NEPC 1999, amended 2013). The process involves the checking of analytical procedure compliance and an assessment of the accuracy and precision of analytical data from a range of quality control measurements, generated from both the field sampling and analytical programs. Specific elements that have been checked and assessed for this project include: • preservation and storage of samples upon collection and during transport

to the laboratory • sample holding times • use of appropriate analytical and field sampling procedures • required limits of reporting • frequency of conducting quality control measurements • rinsate, field, and trip blank results • laboratory blank results • field duplicate and triplicate results • laboratory duplicate results • matrix spike results • surrogates spike results • the occurrence of apparently unusual or anomalous results, for example,

laboratory results that appear to be inconsistent with field observations or measurements.
