| Conclusion | Waihi North Project Air Discharge Assessment - Waihi Surface Facilities | 4396626-1331619777-99 | 16/06/2022 | 68 9 Conclusion OGNZL is proposing to extend the life of the Waihi mining activities by developing Project WNP, which includes the GOP, NRS, and TSF3, collectively referred to as the Waihi Surface Facilities. WNP includes some new crushing, milling, and leaching equipment at the Process Plant. The proposed new equipment is not expected to generate any substantial increase in discharges to air or create any significant adverse effects on air quality. The assessment of effects described in this report concludes that, providing OGNZL continues to use the methods currently used to minimise discharges to air, along with the additional mitigation measures recommended in this report, the discharges to air from the Waihi Surface Facilities will be adequately avoided and mitigated and the risk that these discharges will result in noxious, dangerous, offensive or objectionable effects is considered to be low.
