Climate Risk

Physical hazards and transition risk for the operation, with the assets, value and production each one puts at risk.

What it does to the operation

Pit inundation stops coal mining; saturated spoil and haul roads slow prestrip; dam freeboard and discharge limits.

Controls to verify

Pit dewatering capacity check before the wet season, spoil TARP, sediment dam freeboard monitoring.

Ratings are planning assumptions for an inland Hunter Valley open-cut mine; replace them with the site climate risk assessment. Exposed assets are matched from the asset register by name and type.

Coastal corrosion exposure

Salt-spray corrosion zones (AS 4312) shorten the life of metal and electrical assets near the coast, such as port and rail assets.
