C2030 Broome – Western Australian State Infrastructure Development & LNG Precinct

Anne Nolan, head of the newly formed Department of State Development discussed future planning for Western Australian state infrastructure with particular focus on the LNG Precinct at James Point during the C2030 Broome summit.

·         Living standards will be impacted by future development

·         Development has to be sustainable & responsible

·         Western Australia has massive resource potential

·         There is a world class wilderness area to consider in the Kimberleys

·         A holistic focus must drive development

·         Land must be secured for aboriginal communities

·         Currently, the drivers in the Kimberleys are too narrow – pearling, fishing, tourism & agriculture

·         Scientific research must lead any development activity

·         The overarching theme must be about community

·         A special development package is being developed for the east Kimberley

·         There will be big projects for a big state

·         Kimberley LNG is a world class gas reserve

·         Browse Basin is a site for the future

·         Significant work went into identifying the right site with James Price Point being selected as the most appropriate

·         Roads, infrastructure & services must lead development of the gas resource

·         Enormous business opportunities

C2030 Broome – Resources, Container Homes, Land Development, Eco Tourism

Proceedings for the C2030 Broome summit program were opened by Hon Brendon Grylls MLA.

·         Traditional owners were acknowledged

·         Queensland was presented as a model for the development of the vast expanses of Western Australia with regional centres seen as a core component of any development process

·         The heat & humidity should not be seen as a deterant for human settlement with the north of Queensland been presented as an example again

·         The richness of the resources of the region were focused on with particular mention made of the Ord agricultural area and associated expansion there

·         The value of eco tourism received mention

·         Traditional housing models were shown to be flawed with Brendon providing an alternative option in container homes / transportable. (Search futureWA website for more on container homes as it is a topic that drives significant traffic to this site)

·         Mention was made of the James Point gas hub with Brendon suggesting that there should be growth in areas beyond the realm of pearl farming, agriculture & tourism

·         Royalties for the Regions program and significant state & Federal $’s have been committed to the Ord & the East Kimberley
