Australian company National Aboriginal Construction Partners (NACP) Projects has secured a prime contract to build a Nulka missile assembly and maintenance facility.
The $18.2m (A$23.9m) facility will be constructed at the Defence Establishment Orchard Hills in New South Wales (NSW).
NACP Projects is expected to employ some 200 workers over the project’s ten-month construction period. Around 50 to 80 workers will be present daily on-site.
There are serious flaws in the environmental offsets being used to compensate for the new western Sydney airport now under construction in Badgerys Creek, a Guardian Australia investigation has found.
All up, 1,780ha of bushland will be razed to make way for the new travel hub – an area bigger than the Adelaide CBD.
In theory, offsets allow developers to compensate for the damage they cause in one area by undertaking work to deliver an equivalent or greater environmental benefit in another.
But the site chosen by the federal government to offset the airport is an example of what’s known by experts as “double-dipping” – it had already been earmarked for permanent environmental protection. There will be no new conservation reserves created in western Sydney to compensate for the damage caused by the massive new development.
