SUBJECT: REPORT FROM ENVIRONMENT OFFFICER FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY2017

This report provides an update on environmental projects.

Waste Management

• Council was unsuccessful in attaining grants through the 2016/2017 NTEPA funding round

of waste grants.

• Finalised grant acquittals from the NT ERA 2015/16 grant. For Art of Waste and Compost

Revolution grants.

Energy

• A graph of purchased energy for six Council facilities is attached. Traegar Park will now be

included in energy-use graphs as it is a major Council facility. It should be noted however,

that Traegar Park has seasonal variation in energy use due to AFL seasons and sports

lighting. Approximately 40% of Treager energy use is from day-to-day use, while 60% is

sports lighting. By December 2016, solar energy provided 18% of the energy used by these

6 facilities.

• A draft excel template for measuring Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Council’s operations

has been developed.

Land Management

• The Green Army has been defunded by the Federal Government. As such, the grant

application submitted for Green Army Projects though Round 5 in 2016 will not be funded.

Other

• A brochure on the impacts of domestic cats on native wildlife has been developed and a draft Community Service Announcement has been prepared. This was through the Roaming Cat Prevention project which was successful in receiving funding through Territory Natural Resource Management (TNRM).
