Kimberley LNG Precinct
Process to anticipate and manage change –Strategic SIA of the precinct under the Strategic Assessment Agreement –Precinct Development Scenarios Identification of key issues to develop mitigation and management strategies Are there any issues we have not captured? Social Impact Assessment (SIA) Progress
SIA Process Scoping - understand the project & key issues Profiling - understand the area before change Projection - of effects of project Mitigation and Management C O N S U L T A T I O N Monitoring R E P O R T I N G

Key Issues 1.Increase in Population Impacts on services Human Services –Education: Pre-School, Primary, High, Tertiary, Training –Health: Hospital, Clinics, Doctors, Specialists, Dentists –Emergency Services; Police; AQIS –Recreational Services Infrastructure Land ; Housing (affordable housing); Electricity; Water ; Waste; Gas Transport 2.Changes to the Sense of Place
Key Issues (continued) 3.Business Impacts Tourism Impacts Addressed through Tourism Impact Assessment Management Plan Fishing, Pearling and Aquaculture Impacts Addressed through the Impact Assessment Management Plan Attraction and retention of staff
Assessing Population Impacts Four Step Process Assess Service Capacity Understand project workforce (construction & operation) Project workforce and employment multipliers Family Multipliers

What do we know about the project/s? Foundation Project – ~11 Mtpa –Precinct capacity 50 Mtpa –Precinct development over approx 35yrs – to 2050 Scenarios Other LNG Projects
Similar LNG Projects
Comparative LNG Projects
Scenarios for Social Impact Assessment Current Precinct Development Scenarios –No Development within 20 years –Low - up to 15 Mtpa over 15 years –Medium - up to 25 Mtpa over 25 years –High – up to 50 Mtpa over 25 years
Population Projection – No Kimberley LNG
KLNG Population Projection EXAMPLE Medium Scenario Example to illustrate Population Projection – Foundation proponent’s potential ‘rapid’ scenario (approx. 11 Mtpa) – 3500 peak construction workforce, 520 permanent workforce –Two trains every 5 years –Mid-range scenario
Workforce EXAMPLE
Medium Scenario Assumptions FOR EXAMPLE ONLY Broome Residents –10% of the construction workforce –50% of the operational workforce –Employment Multiplier of 2 –Family Multiplier of 1.5 for construction workforce and 2.6 for operational workforce
KLNG Medium Scenario EXAMPLE
Next Steps Finalise Scenarios and the related population projections Theme Workshops e.g. Housing Health Recreation Infrastructure Community consultation
