South32 required an Engineer on Record (EoR) to provide technical knowledge related to the safety of the Dry Rejects Emplacement Area (DREA) and tailing storage facility (TSF) at the West Cliff Colliery near Appin New South Wales.

- As-built assessment, analysis and interpretation
- Geotechnical assessment
- Hydrological assessment
- Landform and closure design
- Design basis and design report
- Construction records report

- Annual performance report
- Emergency Preparedness and Response Plan
- Impact Assessments and Mitigation Plan
- Hydrogeological/3D seepage model

As the EoR, SLR provided holistic technical and auditing services to ensure GISTM conformance of the DREA along with reports with key recommendations to the client.
