This Environmental Impact Statement has been prepared to accompany a Development Application by Concrite Quarries Pty Limited (the ‘Company’) to Wingecarribee Shire Council for the extension of the Exeter Quarry. The Company has operated Exeter Quarry for the past 15 years and is now seeking approval for an extension of its extraction activities to provide the resource base it requires to underpin the Company's position as an independent concrete manufacturer and quarry product supplier in the Sydney, Illawarra and Southern Highlands areas.
