Legislative Council - Parliament of Victoria

11 October 1979] Questions without Notice 3215

QUESTION ON NOTICE

The following answer to a question on notice was circulated-

GOVERNMENT PUBLIC RELATIONS

(Question No. 1034)

Mr WILKES (Leader of the Opposition) asked the Assistant Minister of Health:

l. What public relations and/or advertising firms have been employed by the departments, instrumentalities, authorities and divisions under the Minister's control since the General Election held on 20 March, 1976?

2. What projects they were employed to undertake and what was the cost of each project?

3. What evaluation, if any, was carried out on the effectiveness of these programmes both before and after they were undertaken?

Mr LIEBERMAN (Assistant Minister of Health)-The answer Is:

The time, effort and expense entailed in collating this complex information cannot be justified. If the Leader of the Opposition requires information on any specific item arising out of the Health Commission's public relations and information activities then every effort will be made to supply the information.

Legislative Council Tuesday, 16 October 1979

The PRESIDENT (the Hon. F. S. Grimwade) took the chair at 4.53 p.m. and read the prayer.

BUSINESS FRANCHISE (PETROLEUM PRODUCTS) (LICENCE FEES) BILL

This Bill was received from the Assembly and, on the motion of the Hon. D. G. CROZIER (Minister for Local Government), was read a first time.

WRONGS (DEFAMATION} BILL This Bill was returned from the

Assembly with a message relating to amendments.

It was ordered that the message be taken into consideration later this day.

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

SCHOOL BUILDING FUNDS The Hon. G. A. SGRO (Melbourne

North Province)-During a visit to the northern suburbs about three weeks ago, the Minister of Education hinted that funding of school projects in the northern suburbs would be on the chopping block and that funding for two major capital works at Coburg schools may be shelved for at least twelve months.

The HOil. A. J. HUNT (Minister of Education)-I hinted no such thing. In fact, I informed the school representatives of the general position on capital funding and pointed out that two Commonwealth decisions had adversely affected the school building programme for the forthcoming year. The direct Commonwealth education funding for capital works has been substantially reduced and the State will receive $47 million less than last year in loan funds under the programme authorized by the Loan Council, which obviously had serious implications for the school building programme. It appeared that the total reduction in funds for the building programme was likely to be in excess of $18 million.

Because of representations by the Assistant Minister, within whose responsibility the building programme lies, and myself, and because of the Treasurer's sympathy in this situation, it has been possible to find a substantial amount from State sources by diverting funds that would normally have gone to other projects. Accordingly the net loss to the building programme was reduced to $10 million. The available funds will be spread across the State in the most equitable way possible and full details of the building programme will be released late this evening by my colleague in another place to accompany a Ministerial statement which he will make. Those details will then be available to all honorable members. I can assure the honorable member that his belief that there will be some discrimination against schools in his electorate is quite wrong and absolutely unfounded.

3216 Questions without Notice

LEGAL AID COMMISSION The Hon. H. G. BA YLOR (Boronia

Province)-Can the Attorney-General inform the House when the proposed Legal Aid Commission may become operational? I ask this question specifically in connection with the Nunawading Legal Aid Service because it is having some difficulty continuing its service as its funding has been restricted. It can now carry on only with funding from the Family and Community Services programme. Those administering the Family and Community Services programme are concerned that the Nunawading branch has taken a large slice of the money and are wondering when the Legal Aid Commission will become operational.

The Hon. HADDON STOREY (Attorney-General) -I am aware of the problems concerning the Nunawading Legal Aid Service. Under the Legal Aid Commission Bill there is provision for the Legal Aid Commission to make funds available to voluntary legal aid services. I hope the Legal Aid Commission will in fact do this once it becomes operational. The commission will come into operation and will be apPointed as soon as the agreement with the Commonwealth is signed. That agreement is almost ready to be signed, subject to certain questions involving ~embers of the Australian Legal Aid Office and their superannuation rights. In the meantime, I have already commenced processes to enable the appointment of the commission to be made as soon as that agreement is signed, which I hope will be very soon.

EDUCATION DEPARTMENT BUILDING PROGRAMME

The Hon. B. P. DUNN (North Western Province) -My question is directed to the Minister of Education. In view of the undertaking which was given in another place by the Assistant Minister of Education and the Minister's answer to an earlier question relating to a statement on the building programme of the Education Department, will the Minister of Education make a similar statement to this House so that honorable members may have the opportunity of de-

[COUNCIL

bating this important issue? If so, when will this statement be made?

The Hon. A. J. HUNT (Minister of Education) -I do not propose to make a statement. That statement will be by the Assistant Minister of Education who exercises full responsibility for the building programme. If the honorable member wishes me to table a copy of that statement tomorrow, I shall seek leave to do so. That will enable the matter to be debated.

MIGRANT ENGLISH TEACHERS The Hon. C. J. KENNEDY (Waverley

Province) -Is the Minister of Education aware that there is no migrant English teacher for sixteen Vietnamese refugee students at Coomoora High School, Springvale North? Is he aware that next year, another 1500 Vietnamese children will be coming to Victoria, many of whom will live at the Enterprise Hostel near Coomoora High School? Will the department provide additional migrant English teachers for the expected influx of these non-English speaking children next year?

The Hon. A. J. HUNT (Minister of Education) -In addition to the formula for high schools, special needs are taken into account. One of the most important of these relates to the need for migrant English. I should appreciate it if the honorable member would give me all the facts in his possession. I will take up the matter with the Secondary Staffing Officer, and invite the honorable member to arrange a special submission from the school to the secondary division. This will ensure that any special needs established by the school are taken fully into account for the next year.

LOCUST PLAGUE The Hon. N. B. REID (Bendigo

Province) -I direct my question to the Minister for Conservation representing the Minister of Agriculture. Is the Minister aware of the severe threat of a locust plague in the northern part of Victoria emanating from the southern part of New South Wales, particularly over the Great Dividing Range? If he is aware of the locust threat, what does the Government propose as a measure against this plague?

16 October 1979] Questions without Notice 3217

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON (Minister for Conservation) -I am aware of the plague locust threat, mainly from the northern New South Wales and southern Queensland areas. In Victoria egg beds of the plague locusts are comparatively confined and can be dealt with by spraying of insecticides. However, this is really an interstate matter. The Department of Agriculture and the Government of Victoria support the Australian Plague Locust Commission to the extent of $89 000 a year. In addition, the department provides four of its special officers, who have been specially trained in dealing with plague locusts, to work with that commission. There are also another six officers of the Department of Agriculture specially trained and working in northern Victoria as extension officers to deal with the problems of plague locusts.

BOARD OF WORKS BORROWING PROGRAMME

The Hon. D. R. WHITE (Doutta Galla Province) -Is the Minister of Water Supply aware that the borrowing programme of the Board of Works has been significantly curtailed both in absolute and real terms and this has caused a further delay in the construction of the Thomson dam project to fully sewer Melbourne and the need to replace and upgrade the existing water supply and sewerage systems? Can the Minister assure the House when this current downturn in the capital works

'I programme of the Board of Works will be rectified?

The Hon. F. J. GRANTER (Minister of Water Supply)-Yes, I am aware of the cutback in funding of the Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works. It is correct that there have been delays in sewerage, the Thomson River and other facets of the board's activities. This is in line with cutbacks which have taken place in a number of other departments and statutory authorities. I can only say that 1 hope the Loan Council and the Treasurer will view the board's programme favourably in the next financial year.

PENSIONER MOTOR VEHICLE CONCESSIONS

The Hon. K. I. WRIGHT (North Western Province) -I address my question to the Leader of the House. It refers to the 50 per cent rebate of registration and third-party fees to pensioners from a date to be determined, probably 1 January. There have been a number of inquiries from pensioners whose registrations fall due in the next few weeks. They consider the situation is rather unfair. Is the Government making this rebate immediate?

The Hon. A. J. HUNT (Minister of Education) -Whenever one fixes a date after which some new concessions shall apply, there are always complaints t.hat the date ought to be made retrospectIve. The Government fixes these matters with sympathy and if it did not ha.ve that sympathy it would not be creatmg the concessions in the first place. However, the Government must fix a date from which the concessions will apply and the honorable member must recognize that whenever that date is fixed those on the other side of it must accept it.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT INCOME TAX REBATES

The Hon. H. R. WARD (South Eastern Province) -My question is directed to the Minister for Local Government. In view of the inordinate delay by the Federal Government in debating the income tax rebate system for the municipalities and the many complaints received from municipalities, particularly from my province and generally throughout Victoria, when is it likely that cheques will be made available to municipalities to cover this rebate of incom·e tax?

The Hon. D. G. CROZIER (Minister for Local Government)-Mr Ward is quite correct in saying that there has been a delay in the passage of the necessary Federal legislation-that is, the appropriate amendments to the Personal Income Tax Sharing Act. The reasons for the delay are well known to honorable members. There was a matter of some topical interest in Federal Parliament which took precedence some three weeks ago when this matter was listed

3218 Questions without Notice

for debate. However, the measure was passed in the House of Representatives last Thursday. It will shortly go to the Senate. Although I am unable to indicate a precise date, 1 hope the cheques will be forwarded within the next four weeks. I assure the House and the honorable member that as soon as the money flows to Victoria the allocations will be made to the municipalities as soon as possible. This is a matter of considerable local interest. It validates the promise of the Federal Government to raise local government's share of personal income tax collections from 1·52 per cent to 1· 75 per cent. This will mean an increase to some $56'4 million, and represents an increase over last year's allocations of some 23· 58 per cent.

WOMEN'S AFFAIRS The Hon. JOAN COXSEDGE (Mel

bourne West Province) -1 direct my question to the Minister representing the Premier. 1 have been informed that the Premier's co-ordinator of women's affairs, Yolanda Klempfner, is organizing a series of workshops concerned with women's issues. 1 want to know who will participate in these workshops, what publicity will be given to the series, what contact has been made with women's groups in the western suburbs and will they be represented? Why has Mrs Klempfner not notified all women's organiza tions?

The Hon. A. J. HUNT (Minister of Education) -As 1 represent another Minister,1 am unable to answer in detail, but if the honorable member is prepared to repeat her question tomorrow 1 shall obtain answers to the question in detail. Dealing broadly with the general issue, however, Mrs Yolanda Klempfner is certainly a most competent person who has a real interest in women's affairs and 1 am sure she will ensure that there is adequate pUblicity for the seminars to be arranged and that there will be proper representation from the widest possible spread of women's groups.

ROAD RULES The Hon. B. A. CHAMBERLAIN

(Western Province) -I direct my question to the Attorney-General, perhaps

[COUNCIL

in his own right, and also as the representative of the Minister for Police and Emergency Services. My question arises out of the apparent confusion in the media following a series of articles published by the Royal Automobile Club of Victoria yesterday on the effect of the give-way rules operating on the roads in this State. These have led to a series of letters, particularly in the Age newspaper, in which supposed experts in the field have different views on the interpretation of the law. Will the Minister examine the various publications which are made available through the police and others to the public on these issues to ascertain whether they fully answer the queries which have arisen? If they do not, can he arrange for a fuller supplement to the issue to remove this confusion?

The Hon. HAD DON STOREY (Attorney-General) -I am aware of the publicity which has been given to the conflicting views on the meaning of the regulations. 1 was under the impression that the Police Department had issued a statement clarifying the situation, but I agree with the honorable member that it is most important that everyone is quite certain of the meaning of the regulations and what they should do in certain situations. Therefore, I shall be very pleased to pass on Mr Chamberlain's suggestions to the Minister for Police and Emergency Services and add my encouragement to the Minister to have statements issued in some suitable form which clarify the give-way rules so that people can be sure of what they should do in an emergency situation.

LIQUID WASTE DISPOSAL The Hon. E. H. WALKER (Melbourne

Province) -I wish to move the adjournment of the House for the purpose of discussing a definite matter of urgent public importance, namely, the failure of the Government to provide adequate facilities for the safe disposal of liquid trade wastes.

Approval of the proposed discussion was indicated by the required number of members rising in their places, as specified in Standing Order No. 53.

16 October 1979] Liquid Waste Disposal 3219

The Hon. E. H. WALKER (Melbourne Province) -I move:

That the House do now adjourn. A critical situation has arisen in relation to the safe disposal of intractable toxic industrial waste. This has not been without warning. Indeed, it has been foreshadowed by concerned members of the public and of this House, by scientists, by industrialists, by Government employees, even by Government committees, by' officers of the Environment Protection Authority and, most commonly, by members of my party for some years. We face a situation which seriously puts in jeopardy the health and well-being of significant numbers of members of the public in this State. This has been coming for the last decade but we have not done what was necessary to meet responsibly this critical situation. I say "we" because responsibility for the present situation rests with all persons who play roles in leadership in this community-you, Mr President, are involved to a degree, I am involved, and my party is involved. We are involved to the degree that we have not made enough noise, made enough fuss to see that action was taken.

The real burden of responsibility lies squarely on members of the Government in this State and, particularly, with Ministers of the Crown who, for several years, have accepted responsibility for the- management of toxic indus trial waste in Victoria, who have postured and speechified and who have done practically nothing.

The record of this Government is scandalous, and the public should be told about it. It includes unfounded clai ms of action, misleading reassurances and attacks on critics such as were made by the present Leader of the House when he was the Minister for Local Government and, in that role, the Minister who w'as responsible. It incl udes blatant offers of political inducement to a specific rural community in this State by the Minister of Water Supply, both in that role and as a local member, in an attempt to silence objections. It includes blatant dissembling and admissions of incompetence and negligence of a serious nature by the

present Minister responsible for this matter, the Minister for Conservation. These are serious allegations and I do not make them lightly. The issue, as I have said, is of critical public importance and I am bound to raise these matters in the belief that exposure of inactivity, of dishonesty and incompetence of this Government is the responsibility of a member of the Opposition; the public must be informed.

Let me first establish the dimensions of this problem and its critical nature. Honorable members will have been made aware of the immediacy of the problem by the disclosures last week by the Leader of the Opposition in another place of an active black market operating in this city for the illegal and secret dumping of significant amounts of intractable, toxic and dangerous liquid trade waste at a going price of some $15 a barrel. It will interest honorable members to know that a number of persons have contacted me since that disclosure, to give details of this operation, the manner in which the operation is carried out and the locations where the illegal dumping is occurring. I have no cause to doubt the veracity of such informants and can understand their reluctance to have their names mentioned. I am carrying out checks to confirm what I have been told. I will simply mention one or two.

Last week I had a telephone call from a person who informed me that he had personal knowledge of the fact that drums of toxic trade waste from the pesticide industry were being taken to a mine shaft in Korumburra and dumped. His knowledge was such because he was the person who had provided the barrels for that person and, more importantly, he informs me that officers of the Environment Protection Authority were not unaware of this procedure although it was illegal. I also refer to a press release made today by the Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly, Mr Wilkes, on dumping of poisonous chemical wastes. Honorable members will no doubt read this in tomorrow morning's newspaper. The press release reads:

In answer to a call from a local resident in Wandin North, Peter Milton the ALP candidate

3220 Liquid Waste Disposal

for the Federal seat of La Trobe and Neil Pope, Lillydale Shire Councillor, inspected a disused quarry site which is being used for the dumping of chemical wastes. The quarry is owned by the Lillydale Shire but is leased to the Country Fire Authority who use the site for the training of firemen.

A large area of the site is covered with blackened tree stumps with pools of stagnant water covered by a yellowish brown evil smelling scum. Mr Milton said he counted ten large and seven small drums which were full of plastic glue. There was also a large number of empty drums which had apparently contained paint thinners. The nearby earth was covered by a thick crust of whitish brown material which had obviously leaked from the drums.

After a tour of the area Mr Milton and Councillor Pope found that a run-off stream from the quarry contained scum which smelt of chemicals. A sample of the water was taken for later analysis by a chemist. Mr Milton said, despite complaints from nearby residents, the dumping and burning of the chemical wastes had been increasing over the past year. The area was easily accessible to children attending the Wandin North Primary School just 100 yards from the quarry and the stream containing the run-off from the wastes flowed past the path used by the children. However, the greatest danger was from seepage through the soil and the run-off from the soil and the run-off from the stream. A stream running through a nursery adjacent to the quarry also appeared to contain chemicals. Both streams discharged their water!> into the nearby Little Stringybark Creek whose waters eventually entered the River Yarra.

There is more to this press release but I wish to refer to the last comment by the Leader of the Opposition:

Mr Milton said that there were some questions to be answered here. First of all who had given authority for the dumping of poisonous chemical wastes in the quarry? Secondly why was the area not fenced so that children were unable to gain access? Thirdly why had no account been taken of the numerous complaints from local residents? FinaIly most important of all what steps would be taken to prevent this pollution to water which could be used as a potential water supply for the people of Melbourne?

Members of the Government Party ask for details. I offer that amount of detail and, in due course, will offer further detail of infringements of which I now know. Over a year ago a report was made by a most authoritative source on the critical nature of the problem. I refer to figures released in May 1978 by Mr C. W. Schaller, the Chief Land Waste Management Officer in the The Hon. E. H. Walker

[COUNCIL

Environment Protection Authority, to a SEminar organized by the Australian Chemical Industry Council.

At that tilne Mr SchaIler said that 10 million litres of trade wastes were being stockpiled in Melbourne and that the amount was increasing by 2· 5 million litres a year. He went on to say that there were no existing acceptable disposal facilities for more than 7· 5 million litres of that waste, which was stockpiled mostly at factories in and around this city.

I quote from the report of the seminar in the Age of Tuesday, 23 May 1978; under the heading "City Waste builds up":

The seminar wa~ told there were 3·75 million litres of dangerous clrlorinated hydrocarbons among the wastes which were being stockpiled because acceptable disposal facilities did not exist.

Melbourne industries were generating a further 1,063000 litres of chlorinated hydrocarbons each year.

Mr SchaIler said the "persistent" chlorinated hydrocarbons would seriously affect surface water and groundwater quality if disposed of irresponsibly.

The stored wastes included 1·4 million litres of brine sludge, containing some mercury. The amount of sludge in Melbourne was increasing by 200 000 litres, annually.

They also included 18000 litres of arsenic wastes. A further 1760 litres of arsenic wastes were generated each year.

Mr Schaller said the Environment Protection Authority was extremely concerned about the absence of approved disposal facilities for wastes.

He said stockpiling of inflammable wastes was potentially dangerous. and seepage from corroding containers could reach watercourses.

Mr SchaHer said that if the "stockpiling and inaction" continued, it was likely there would be agitation for Government intervention.

He warned that this could lead to legislation and perhaps disposal facilities which "because of the urgency of the situation, would be hastily conceived and unsatisfactory to industry and the community".

On these figures alone, Melbourne stockpiles of toxic liquid wastes must have exceeded 12 million litres by now. It is interesting to note that on the day following that news item, the Age, in a follow-up article headed "End sought to city's waste peril" reported:

About one million litres of highly flammable waste is stored in thou!)ands of barrels at Dulux Paints' Clayton factory


The company previously has commented freely about the stockpile but yesterday the production manager, Mr Syd Davis, said he had been instructed not to say any more.

The problem has been an urgent one for years and public servants have spoken out on the growing crisis. I quote again from an Age article dated 19 September 1978 where the Chairman of the Environment Protection Authority, Mr Jack Fraser, is quoted. The article is headed "Don't delay on waste-Environment Protection Authority Chairman":

The chairman of the Environment Protection Authority, Mr J. C. Fraser, yesterday urged the State Government not to delay the development of an industrial waste dump near Bendigo.

But the State Oppositicn spokesman on conservation, Mr Cathie, yesterday called on the Government to examine cl aims by the CSIRO scientist that the dump could contaminute Bendigo's water supply.

Mr Fraser said the stockpiling of inflammable wastes created dangerous situations and had become an urgent matter in Victoria.

"One mam!facturer is known to have accumulated 5000 200-litre drums of solventbearing residues," he said.

"The authority is extremely concerned about these wastes for which there are no approved outlets."

He said the EPA has seen several accidental spiJIages in country areas which might have poisoned water supplies if they had not been contained.

It is unusual to hear senior public servants speak in this way. That was over a year ago. I have commented about the immediacy of the problem of known cases of secret and illegal dumping, and I have given some dimension to the problem and its critical nature by quoting figures and comments from top Government officials in Victoria.

I should like to give honorable members an insight into the real nature of the problem by quoting briefly a few overseas examples of spillage and of delayed contamination leading to sickness and death. I quote from page 688 of the New Scientist of 15 December 1977, an article entitled "Toxic Substances-Wasted Opportunitys". Under a heading of "Ten Cases for Concern", I give four examples. They are:

The addition of acid to a large waste oil storage tank in Essex, ostensib!y for emulsion splitting purposes, instead split the storage tank

and, besides flinging hot oil and acid over a wide area, resulted in two operators being overcome by fumes.

Several incidents have occurred while waste tankers have been en route to disposal sites. For example, one tanker arrived at a site in Essex minus its load which escaped on the journey due to a faulty valve. Several tankers have needed the services of fire brigades to check runaway pressure rises.

Arsenic wastes which had been buried in Minnesota, 30 years ago, hospitalised a number of people when their water supply became contaminated.

The scandal of the "Plaumann Affair" in which large sums of money were .paid to a contractor for supposedly treating highly toxic waste, instead of which it was just dumped in the open at Hessen. These are just a few cases from overseas which are, of course, not related. However, I wish to mention the hazards which occur to workers in this industry and again I cite a few examples which where set out in an article in the New Scientist of 15 December 1977. They are:

Hazards to Workers

There are also severe risks to workers engaged in the disposal of solid toxic wastes. In addition to a fatality at Pitsea, due to accidental inhalation of hydrogen sulphide, the following list is representative of incidents in recent years:

A dump-truck driver was killed while disposing of waste near a pit containing cyanide waste.

There have been several deaths and narrow escapes when operators entered road tanker barrels to clear them.

A driver was seriously injured when the rear door blew off a tanker loading waste at the producer's premises.

One worker was killed and seven hospitalised when arsine was generated from smelter waste.

Seven men, including one ambulanceman, were overcome by solvent fumes during disposal of waste paints on a landfill site.

Two labourers were killed by gas while tunnelling on an industrial waste tip.

Three men were hospitalised due to hydrogen sulphide fumes arising from the meeting of incompatible substances on a Iandfill site on Merseyside.

Many cases are not reported. In fact only a minor number are reported, so that the public may know about them. I identify completely with the sentiments


expressed in that article I have quoted from the New Scientist when the writer says:

In view of the lack of official statistics and official reticence to provide hard information, it is particularly galling to have to listen to members of the establishment playing down the extent of the hazards of toxic waste disposal and making plain their displeasure at even finding the subject being raised for discussion. Having set the nature and extent of the problem, I want to return to the local scene and make some comments on the Dargile fiasco. Honorable members will remember that in July 1978 the State Co-ordination Council recommended to the Premier' that a landfill industrial liquid waste disposal facility be established on 40 hectares of the Dargile State forest 16 kilometres north east of Heathcote and 121 kilometres from Melbourne. This recommendation was based on the third progress report compiled by the Inter-departmental Committee on Liquid Waste Disposal and followed an investigation by the Department of Minerals and Energy testing the suitability of possible sites. Responsibility for constructing and operating the landfill, and for preparing the environmental effects statement, was given to the Public Works Department. The wastes for which the facility was intended were those for which no approved method of disposal was available in Victoria.

An incomplete list of some of these wastes include poly-chlorinated biphenyls, commonly known as PCBs. These were first introduced around 1930 and became widely used in industry. Their use was curtailed in the early 1970s because it was found they had dispersed widely into the environment.

Much of the problem which was attributed in the 1960s to DDT, should, in fact, have been blamed on PCBs as it now turns out. They are highly resistant to bio-degradation. Once in the environment they are taken up by living organisms and accumulate in food chains. Serious problems have occurred in Finland and Japan where PCBs were detected. The effects include liver and brain malfunctions.

Another waste comprised chlorinated hydrocarbons which, like PCBs, have a long life and, if taken into food chains, The Hon. E. H. Walker

[COUNCIL

can cause, among other things, a rare liver cancer. Chlorinated hydrocarbons are, for instance, used in the manufacture of PVC which is a common substance in modern day use.

A further waste comprises pesticides. These include a wide range of compounds and some are extremely toxic. These are shorter lived than PCBs but they are dangerous to handle and very dangerous where accidental spillages occur. Dioxin, for instance, which is associated with 2, 4-D and 2, 4, 5-T can cause deformity, retardation and miscarriages in pregnant women. Minute amounts on the skin can cause lesions and brain damage.

Another waste product includes brine sludges containing mercury. Much has been said and written about mercury poisoning in recent years, particularly as high contamination levels have occurred in fish in certain waters related to industrial discharge. For instance, the Minimata disaster in Japan, which related to mercury poisoning, caused over 200 deaths.

These are but a few of the substances involved in what are known as intractable toxic trade wastes. Some of these materials were to be deposited under the landfill system at Dargile. Honorable members should also realize that in many cases escape to the environment is not just a possible seepage into ground water, but also as a possible gaseous leakage to the air for some' chemicals. But let me return to the Dargile story. The decision was made and the announcements were made. The Melbourne Sun of 13 September 1978 under the heading "New site for liquid waste", announced:

The State Government has picked a site at Dargile, 120 km north-west of Melbourne, for dumping liquid industrial waste.

The Government examined eight sites in Victoria following recommendations from an interdepartmental committee.

It found that the Dargile site had a suitable clay base and was the right distance from Melbourne.

The Local Government Minister Mr Hunt said yesterday that 80 ha would be set aside but only 20 ha would be used initially.

He said 7· 5 million litres of waste were now in storage in Melbourne.


Most of the material was in drums and would be buried in lO-metre deep trenches.

Mr, Hunt, with the Conservation Minister, Mr Borthwick and Water Supply Minister, Mr Granter visited Mclvor Shire Officials last Thursday to discuss the issue.

When residents of nearby Heathcote heard of the matter they understandably became concerned. An Age press item of 7 October 1978 indicates the various attitudes. Under the heading "Residents fight waste plant" the item states:

The Mclvor shire council has charged the State Government to move quickly with its proposal for an industrial liquid waste dump within the shire so' as "to dampen public criticism of this project".

The next paragraph is most interesting: The council suggested the Government supply

money for local sewerage works and a local hospital rebuilding programme in order to "counteract the adverse public image that the depot may create".

Shire residents have reacted bitterly to the council's action, accusing it of "horse-trading" and "selling out" to the State.

They have formed a local action group to resist the official push to have the dump sited at Dargile, about 16 kilometrefl north-east of Heathcote.

A great deal of debate was fostered and one must pay tribute to the careful and detailed work undertaken by the Heathcote committee. On 8 November 1978 the Age reported in an article headed "Heathcote gears up for a fight":

The small central Victorian town of Heathcote is gearing up for the batHe of its life.

It aims to fight a proposed State Government industrial wastes dump planned for a site in the Dargile State Forest near Heathcote.

Secretary of a locally formed Citizen's Action Group, Anglican minister Father Speed, said yesterday the group was gathering technical information from geologists, chemistry experts and hydrogeologists for a submission to the Environment Protection Authority.

The site will be a dumping ground for millions of litres of toxic wastes stored in drums around Melbourne.

They will include highly poisonous elements such as mercury, arsenic, lead and polychlorinated biphenyls, more persistent pollutants than DDT.

The Dargile site has been chosen because its clay soils and geology are said to be ideal for dumping.

But the townspeople, backed by an expert geologist, say the site is fissured and wastes would leak into local streams.

I do not want to take honorable members through the battle as it unfolded in the daily and local papers, but it is interesting to note the responses which occurred from members of the Government.

On 20 September 1978, the Bendigo Advertiser carried, the following item under a heading "Dump no danger to us-expert" and it says:

The siting of a disposal dump for industrial wastes will not pose a threat to Bendigo's water supplies.

The Secretary of the Inter-Departmental Inquiry into Waste Disposal, Mr John Jack, of the Premier's Department, said this yesterday.

Mr Jack was replying to a reported statement in which the principal research scientist with the CSIRO's protein chemistry division, Dr WaIter Savige, was said to have claimed that the dump could contaminate water supplies at Bendigo.

Mr Jack said: "It will not contaminate any municipal supply and the catchment does not flow into any stream that supplies towns with water,"

It is interesting that in the same edition of the Bendigo Advertiser, a small item was headed "Hunt objects". That item reads:

The Local Government Minister, Mr Hunt, has made a formal complaint to the CSIRO over the statements by Dr Savige about the State Government's planned industrial liquid wastes dump.

One wonders why the honorable gentleman should make such a complaint. The item continues:

Mr Hunt said yesterday the scientist was not a specialist in the field of liquid waste or waste disposal and had not read or even sought copies of the research which led to the decision on the dump.

The honorable gentleman did not go on to say that copies of that research were not freely available.

In a letter to Mr D. R. Glisson, McIvor shire secretary, on 5 October 1978, the Premier, Mr Hamer, began a series of what I would call "pacifiers". The Premier wrote:

The proposal to establish a disposal site at Dargile for intractable liquid wastes has been the subject of discussion and correspondence between the Ministers for Conservation and Local Government and your council. These Ministers have now informed me that they have examined the conditions under which the council will agree to the siting of the project.


I am now writing to inform you that the Government gives the following undertakings in respect to the Dargile liquid waste disposal project-I will not read the entire letter, but the third point of the letter reads:

An annual ex-gratia· payment' will be made in lieu of rates. This will not be less than the rates which would be payable on the site if operated by a private citizen. It must be one of the few occasions when the Government agreed to pay to a local shire rates on State-owned land. Item 4 of the letter reads:

The access road from the Northern Highway to the site will be upgraded . . . Doubtless that was worth a few dollars. The letter contained nine points. The final paragraph of the Premier's letter reads:

I do not regard the question of water and sewerage schemes and hospital programmes as directly related to the DargiIe disposal site, but can understand your Council's reasons for raising them at this point. That was very generous. The honorable gentleman then offered:

I will ask the Minister of Health to ensure that the Hospitals and Charities Commission sympathetically reassess hospital needs at Heathcote with a view to making certain that necessary works proceed as soon as practicable. They were very decent offers from the Premier to the shire secretary.

In the October 24 and 25 editions of the Bendigo Advertiser, the Government's real negotiating capacity was revealed.

On 24 October the following item appeared under the heading, "Heathcote cash O.K.-Granter":

The Minister of Water Supply, Mr Granter, has given an assurance that funds will be available for the construction of Heathcote's $1'3 million water and sewerage project.

On 25 October, the very next day, the same paper under a heading, "New Fire Engine for Heathcote" stated:

Heathcote Fire Brigade has a new fire engine. Mr Jock Granter, MLC (Central Highlands), officially handed over the new fire engine at a brief ceremony last week.

It may be coincidental or I may be unusually cynical, but the two "gifts" seem closely related to what the public perceived as the major hazards at Dargile. The Hon. E. H. Walker

[COUNCIL

Let us look at it this way. The two gifts seemed closely related to what the public perceived as the two major hazards at Dargile-polluted groundwater and the fire hazard.

As is now well known to honorable members, the onset of the May 1979 State election brought on one of this Government's most celebrated backdowns-on 24 April 1979 the Age carried a report headed "Dump site plan axed". It reads:

The State Government has axed controversial plans for a liquid waste dump near Heathcote.

Cabinet yesterday abandoned the proposed site at Dargile, 120 kilometres north of Melbourne, because of possible contamination of local water supplies.

It now appears a new site will be found closer to Melbourne. One wonders where that might be. The report later states:

Mr Hunt said last night Dargile had failed to meet the rigid (environmental) requirements laid down by the Premier.

"A specially treated dump closer to Melbourne would be cheaper and safer for transport purposes," he said. But he refused to name possible sites. What a miserable capitulation! And, of course, those carrion birds of State politics-the National Party-were not slow to try to make political capital out of it. In the Herald of 24 April an article headed "Dump victory ours-NP" stated:

The National Party today claimed a knockout victory with the Government's decision to scrap an indu~rial liquid waste dump at Dargile, 120 km north-west of Melbourne.

The National Party Leader, Mr Ross-Edwards, said senior party members had helped local residents organize a fight against the dump.

"We went into the fight to stop that dump -and we have had a great knock-out win", he said. But the politicking had not finished. With impeccable timing and characteristic scrambled English expression, the Honorable Jock Granter issued this press release on 4 May, one day before the election, headed, "Dargile Decision Shows Government Responsibility":

The Minister of Water Supply, Jock Granter, said today that the Victorian Government's decision not to go ahead with the proposed waste disposal site at Dargile highlighted the Government's flexibility in the matter.


Unfortunately there were groups which jumped on the bandwagon to do a bit of stirring. But all they did was jump the gun.

I ,assure honorable members that this is written in the press release:

Now they are trying to claim credit for a Government decision. I cannot resist continuing-this is one of the nicest press releases I have ever read. It continues:

The Victorian Government would never ride rough-shod over public opinion. It would never adopt the high handed tactics of the party which Mr Peter Ross-Edwards supports.

The destruction of the Belle Vue Hotel in Brisbane indicates the lack of consideration the National Party has for opinion contrary to its own. If we parallel Dargile and Belle Vue it is not hard to see which Government has the interests of the community at heart.

Mr Granter said that a few weeks ago Flo Bjelke Petersen exhorted Victorian people to vote for the National Party. She said a vote for the National Party in Victoria would give Victorians a Government like that of Queensland.

Heaven help us, Mr Granter said. I doubt if thinking Victorians would want

that sort of Government or be prepared to pay such a high price.

Even making allowance for the kind of madness that election campaigns seem to foster, this outburst from the honorable gentlemen must rank with the most cynical and expedient statements ever made by a member of the Liberal Party. Even Sir Henry Bolte would have been proud of it.

I apologize to the House for having treated the Dargile issue at such length, but I wanted to use it to 'make some critical points in this debate, and in particular to stress the expedient, dishonest and irresponsible way this Government is dealing-or not dealingwith what is clearly one of the most dangerous environmetal problems that could arise.

If, as we are told, the Dargile site was chosen after an exhaustive study of the eight most suitable sites in Victoria, and if, as the pious press release of the Minister of Education and the Minister of Health on 23 April tells us, "The site has failed to meet the rigid requirements laid down by the Premier", why does not the Government come clean and tell us that there are

probably no suitable sites for such waste? After all, the Government's most knowledgeable public servant involved in the issue has said as much. I refer to Mr Gordon Tippett, the secretary of the Government's interdepartmental committee on liquid waste disposal. On 23 July 1979, the following report appeared in the Age:

The secretary of the Government's inter~ departmental committee on liquid waste disposal, Mr Gordon Tippett, said yesterday Dargile had been the best land-fill site in Victoria.

"Because there were no other sites as suitable, we will have to look at other techniques," he said.

That is a rather unequivocal statement, one must admit. That statement cannot be read in more than one way. To reinforce that view I quote the answer to question on notice No. 479 asked in another place by Mr Ian Cathie and answered on 26 June 1979 by the Minister of Health, for the Minister for Conservation. The question, headed "Dumping of Liquid Trade Waste", appears at page 1345 of Hansard. There are four parts to the question, but I will quote only two. The fourth part is:

Why the Dargile site was rejected? The answer was:

The Dargile site was rejected because it did not meet the stringent environmental safeguards required by the Government.

The second part of the question was: What sites are currently under investigation?

The answer was: No sites are currently under investigation.

That is also a rather unequivocal statement and is extremely revealing since the interdepartmental committee on liquid waste disposal was at that very time putting finishing touches to its fourth report presented to the State Co-ordination Council in July. The report is still under wraps.

The Leader of the National Party, Mr Ross-Edwards . has suggested that the decision to scrap the Dargile plans was simply due to political pressure leading up to the election on 5 May. That opinion is shared by none other than the Minister for Conservation, who stated in this House on 27 June 1979 in


connection with Dargile, and I refer to page 1355 of Hansard, in response to a motion moved by Mr David Williams:

Environmentalists objected to the proposal, some with and some without validity. They chose to object at a good time-just prior to an election.

That is straightforward. If the decision to scrap Dargile was sheer political expediency, despite the inducements and sweeteners I have mentioned, this Government stands condemned of public fraud and deception in that it used large sums of public money to research and select a site, only to withdraw for cynical political gain. I might add that that view is held widely. In an article in the Melbourne Age on 10 October titled, "The Callous Solution to Toxic Waste Disposal-Dump It Illegally", Peter Ellingsen writes:

The State Government thought it had the answer earlier this year when it decided to create a land-fill dump at Dargile, near Heathcote, 120 kilometres from Melbourne.

Public and political resistance resulted in the plan being dropped and alternative sites considered.

The Government cannot have it both ways. If Dargile is the best possible site but is still not safe enough, we had better know about it and make a tough alternative decision. If Dargile is safe, but was dropped ·for cynical political reasons, the public had better know about it and we can expose a gross public deception. The story so far is a sordid one and reflects clearly the unwillingness of the Government to take serious action to solve a critical problem.

I propose to deal briefly with the performance of the present Minister responsible for this matter-the Minister for Conservation. I refer first to a debate in this House on this very issue in June of this year. On 20 June my colleague, the former member for Ballarat Province, the honorable David Williams, moved that a Select Committee be established to determine methods of treatment and disposal of trade waste. In his comments he succinctly outlined the problem and gave examples of the critical situation. In his reply, the Minister for Conservation showed not only a lack of understanding of the problem, The Hon. E. H. Walker

[COUNCIL

but an attitude of irresponsibility concerning the whole issue. At page 1354 of Hansard, he is reported as having said:

Not only was the former Minister for Local Government familiar with all these problems; it was also a requirement in the Local Government Act that municipal authorities be responsible for waste disposal. Therefore, the Minister for Local Government has always had the carriage of this problem.

I regret that that responsibility has now passed to the Minister for Conservation. I am sorry that the Minister regrets it because the Opposition also regrets it. Later in his speech, the Minister rambled through a series of disturbing comments which revealed no action-not even a direction for action. He stated, and I quote from page 1356 of Hansard:

Chemical methods of treating toxic waste should be investigated. It is a bit late to talk about it being investigated. He continued:

A variety of decisions must still be made on policy and who will accept the responsibility. Although the Government is moving rapidly towards making such decisions, much more progress remains to be made. I wish to quote again from page 1356 of Hansard where the Minister is reported as saying:

The third report recommended the Dargile disposal site and the fourth report has now been presented to the Government,-That was in June of this year--which must make decisions about what should be done, the recommendations made in the report and whether the report should be made public. _ I understand from one of the authors of the report that one of the first recommendations of the report was that it be made public. It has been in the hands of the Government since June. Again at page 1356 of Hansard, the Minister is reported as having said:

Honorable members will be aware that a number of propositions are available. One is that the industries should be required to deal with their own wastes. The report of the Minister's speech continues at page 1357:

Hopefully, by debate and discussion in the Parliament, the actions of the Government and of the interdepartmental committee that is considering this problem, and by various other processes that I intend to put in train for solving this problem, the Government will arrive at a proper and acceptable solution. Much will depend on further examination.


Finally, there is a marvellous reassurance at the end of the Minister's speech where he states:

I assure the House that in the process of that examination the problem wiII not get out of hand.

What nonsense! The Minister appears to know nothing about the problem. He says that he will have to take this or that action and he assures us that the problem will not get out of hand. How out of hand can it get? Tankers are unloading their toxic contents on the streets to get rid of them. How long will it be before the Minister takes action?

The Minister is either a bit simple or dangerously irresponsible. One can take one's pick. Either way, he should be immediately removed from responsibility for this matter. I propose to indicate another basis for my lack of confidence in the Minister for Conservation on this issue of trade wastes. I refer honorable members to page 2567 of Hansard of 18 September where a question on notice from Ian Cathie to the Minister for Conservation is answered. I hope honorable members will listen to this interchange carefully. The question is headed, "Lake Colac", and asks:

What Environment Protection Authority licences have been issued to the Colac Dairy Company for discharges into Lake Colac, indicating-(a) the date of any changes to the conditions; (b) the amendments to the licence conditions; and (c) whether these changes were made public in accordance with the law, indicating when and how?

The question continues but I shall not deal with the other parts. The answer to that part of the question provided by the Minister for Conservation was:

I am advised that, in its capacity as a delegated agency of the Environment Protection Authority, the State Rivers and Water Supply Commission has issued two licences to the Colac Dairying Company Limited for the discharge of wastes to water into Lake Colac.

I raised this matter later in the evening of 18 September during the debate on the motion for the adjournment of the sitting. I had spoken with Mr Cathie during the suspension of the sitting and I used the answer provided by the Minister to Mr Cathie's question as

the basis for my comments. Those comments are recorded at page 2491 of Hansard as follows:

I raise a matter for the attention of the Minister for Conservation. It concerns the Colac Dairy Company. I have information that two Environment Protection Authority licences were issued by agents of the Environment Protection Authority ... And so on. The answer then made by the Minister for Conservation was:

Mr Walker raised the question of an Environment Protection Authority licence issued to a Colac dairy farmer. I do not know the circumstances under which the licence has been extended from time to time ... What kind of incompetence is it when a Minister who has given a complete answer to a particular question in one House claims, on the same day, in the other House, that he has no knowledge of the matter? The Minister is incompetent.

I make a third observation on the competence of the Minister in regard to the disposal of trade wastes. During the debate on the motion for the adjournment of the sitting on October 9, Mr Eddy raised a matter that has worried a number of honorable members on this side of the House who are interested in industry. It involved the dumping of wastes at a site in Camp Road, Broadmeadows. In his response, the Minister indicated that he had no knowledge of the matter. I cannot believe that!

It would be wrong for me to suggest that I have all the answers to this problem, but it would be equally wrong not to indicate the kind of action the Labor Party believes should be taken.

Firstly, I shall comment on relevant economic matters. It is the belief of the Opposition that, at the core of any waste management strategy, a responsible Government would use certain economic instruments to ensure that real disposal costs are incorporated in the product price. By this, I mean that the use of taxes and charges imposed by the relevant authority should allow the funding of facilities and programmes for waste disposal. In this way, the Government would initiate and control the methods to be used,


and, in an equitable way, the producer pays. Such schemes cannot be administered voluntarily.

Secondly, I shall deal with the method of disposal. It becomes increasingly clear that for the majority of intractable toxic wastes the best method of disposal is by high temperature incineration or what is known as pyrolysis. The technology for this is well developed and the process is clean so far as emissions to air are concerned. In this House in June, Mr Hamilton made the claim that such a method would handle some 50 per cent of the problem. I agree with him. The heat generated could be harnessed as energy for productive industrial purposes. I disagreed wi th him when he indicated in that debate that he might or might not have an interest in a certain company that was trying to sell the technology for doing that job, but that is another matter. The New South Wales Government is spending $5 million on the construction of such an incineration facility.

Sophisticated methods of recycling are now in use in Melbourne-this is another method for disposal of intractable waste-although the volume of waste that is recycled is not great. Far more work can be done in this area where the catchcry "uneconomic" is used. I refer to a firm in Oakleigh called Chemorganic, which has developed advanced work of this kind. In many cases the final residue from such processes is suitable for sanitary land fill since it becomes virtually solid, inflammable and inert.

Other physical, chemical and biological processes will be available when realistic costing of disposal is faced. There are technical solutions to this problem. However, they cost money and require concerted Government action.

I now refer to a report that was completed in 1972, and I am sure all honorable members will be familiar with it. It is the report of the State Development Committee on the Disposal and/or Destruction of Garbage and Other Rubbish with particular reference to the Disposal of Industrial The Hon. E. H. Walker

[COUNCIL

Wastes. It is signed A. N. Castle, secretary, and dated 14 December 1972. The Legislative Assembly ordez:ed that the report be printed on 6 March 1973, which was almost seven years ago. The committee reached a number of conclusions and made a number of recommendations. I shall not read all of them, but at page 7 the following conclusion appears as No. 34:

The lack of effective control hitherto exercised over the disposal of trade wastes lends encouragement to carriers to engage in improper disposal practices, such as the i11icit dumping or discharge of untreated trade wastes to segments of the environment, other than approved disposal sites or through approved disposal systems. However, the provisions of the Environment Protection Act dealing with the control of wastes provide a sound legislative basis on which to remedy the most undesirable features currently associated with the transportation, handling, treatment and disposal of wastes. I remind honorable members that that conclusion was reached more than seven years ago. On page 8 the following conclusion No. 42 appears:_

The widespread practice of illegally discharging untreated liquid and solid trade wastes into sewerage systems and into and adjacent to watercourses represents a major source of pollution of Victoria's inland and coastal waters. Conclusion No. 55 states:

Until satisfactory alternative arrangements can be made for the treatment of liquid wastes, in the form of the provision of regional liquid waste treatment plants, there is a need, as an emergency measure to meet short-term requirements, for the rationalization of the use of existing and projected municipal and privately operated tipping sites, so that untreated liquid and soluble solid wastes which cannot be recycled or treatell on-site to approved water quality standards are directed to disposal sites which will not permit of the movement of contaminants into the groundwater. The recommendations appear at page 10 and I shall read several of them. They are quite short. Recommendation No. 13 was that:

Regional treatment plants, providing facilities for biological and chemical treatment of liquid trade wastes, be established, according to need and locality. I repeat that the report was produced seven years ago. There are, as yet, no regional treatment plants. Recommendation No. 14 was that:

Facilities be provided in regional treatment plants for the destruction, by an approved process of incineration, of flammable wastes and such post-treatment residuals as are not acceptable for discharge into sewers.


There is still no incineration plant. Recommendation No. 15 was that:

The Government retain sufficient control over the conditions under which liquid waste disposal treatment plants are established and operated, to ensure that waste treatment charges are reasonable to both the operator of the facility and the client companies. The Government has not retained anything like sufficient control to carry out that recommendation. What is worse, there is no central register of trade wastes-where they are or what they are. It is common knowledge that stockpiling is not done on Government land or in regional depots, it is carried out on private land and in many cases truckers do not know what they are carrying when they are disposing of trade wastes.

I have put a case suggesting that the Government is irresponsible. It has shown that it is singularly 1,.lnwilling to take action. It has failed the people and put in jeopardy the health and safety of the community. It has been, in my view, culpably negligent and has shown gross incompetence. The Government, on this issue alone, is unfit to govern, and I commend the motion to the House.

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON (Min;. ister for Conservation) -The Deputy Leader of the Opposition has just read a highly emotive speech. I thought both the House and the Chair were extremely tolerant in allowing an honorable member who made his maiden speech long ago to read the whole of his remarks. Of course, his remarks lost much of their impact because of that method of delivery. I trust the honorable member does not think that honorable members on this side of the House will extend the same tolerance to him when he makes speeches in the future.

The Hon. D. R. White-You could have raised the matter while he was speaking.

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-I point out to Mr White that I am a tolerant man and I am joining in the tolerance that has been displayed by the House and the Chair. Mr Walker described the situation as critical. I do not believe it is critical-in fact, I know it

is not critical. I went to the Oxford Dictionary, as a reasonably reliable authority, to discover the meaning of "critical". That word has a large number of meanings but the only one that could be applied to the adjective as it was used by Mr Walker is "being of the nature of or constituting a crisis" .

The Hon. B. P. Dunn-This is a lot of talking. When are you going to get to the real issues?

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-I shall get to the real issues as quickly as Mr Walker got to them, and he took a long time. In a moment I shall read the terms of the motion and Mr Dunn will then realize that Mr Walker did not deal with those terms. He dealt wHh only one small part of them. However, if Mr Dunn is able to show a little patience, I can assure him that I will get to that point.

Mr Walker said that no action had been taken by the Government to deal with the problem. That is complete nonsense. A great deal of action has been taken. Mr Walker in fact cited a large amount of the action the Government has taken.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-Like Dargile, for instance?

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-I believe the honorable member spoke about that. I forget whether, in all of the honorable member's reading, he referred to Dargile, but that is certainly part of the action taken by the Government. Dargile was proposed as a site and was objected to. Mr Walker did not advise the Government on whether he considered Dargile a suitable waste disposal area. I have no doubt the Dargile problem will be discussed by one of my colleagues shortly.

Unlike members of the establishment, to whom Mr Walker referredand I do not know who he meant; perhaps he was referring to his Leader, Mr Landeryou-I have no objection to discussing the matter. I have discussed it in this House before. Mr Walker did not quote the speech I made in response to a motion moved by Mr Williams in the last sessional period, in


which I complimented Mr WilIiams on bringing the matter before the House. I do not compliment Mr Walker on bringing the matter before the House today in the way in which he has done so. Unlike members of the establishment, as I am not one of them, 1 have no objection to discussing the matter. The terms of the motion are:

. . . The failure of the Government to provide adequate facilities for the safe disposal of liquid trade wastes.

I shall put that statement in its proper context and discuss liquid trade wastes and what the Government has done about their disposal. Mr Walker devoted the whole of his reading to intractable wastes, which are additional to the 50000 megalitres of trade wastes that are generated annually in the Melbourne metropolitan area and discharged to sewers and drains under licence. Most of those licences are granted by the Melbourne and Metropolitan Board of Works. Those wastes are not sufficiently injurious to do any harm in the sewers and the subsequent areas to which they travel through the system.

]f they are not suitable for discharge into the sewers, there is a requirement that they be treated to a state where they can be discharged into the sewers. In addition to the 50 000 megalitres, 112 megalitres are disposed of at the Tullamarine and Broadmeadows treatment works. Some 70 per cent of this section of liquid trade wastes is dealt with at Tullamarine. These wastes come in between the intractable trade wastes and the 50 000 megalitres of trade wastes disposed of in the sewers. The life of the Tullamarine disposal facility is some seventeen years but the life of the Broadmeadows facility is somewhat shorter than that, I believe in the vicinity of four years.

Therefore, some future problem will be presented for the disr0sal of this section of trade waste. That is, the section which comprises the 112 megalitres and which falls between the trade waste which is disposed of to the sewers and the intractable waste which needs to be dealt with in another w·ay. A further element in the The Hon. W. V. Houghton

[COUNCIL

total liquid trade waste disposal involves re-processing about 6 million litres a year. These wastes are processed by being retreated so that perhaps some of the solvents are extracted from the wastes and re-used by the industries which generate the wastes. As I said, about 6 million litres are treated in this way .

At the end of the problem are the intractable trade wastes which comprise about 2 million litres a year currently being generated of intractable liquid trade wastes. Of those 50000 megalitres, plus 112 megalitres, plus 6 million litres, 2 million litres present the major and only problem to which Mr Walker referred.

Consideration should be given to how the intractable trade wastes ought to be treated. The inter-departmental committee has grappled with the problLn and produced a number of reports. As indicated to this House, the committee has now presented the fourth report. That report will become available for public scrutiny after considerable additional action by the Government in studying that report before it is released. It is not a report to Parliament. It is a report to the Premier and it is an inter-departmental report. Therefore, it is in the hands of the Government and I believe the time will come-it will not be long-when the report can be produced for the information of and consumption by members of Parliament and by the public of Victoria.

In the meantime, trade waste is being stored at the premises of the generators and some part of this intractable waste is to be treated in the fairly near future by the visit of the incinerator ship Vulcanus 11. Last week an honorable member asked me about the visit of the ship Vulcanus II and what was the purpose for which it would be visiting Victoria. The principal purpose is to incinerate a large part of the intractable waste.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-The Government is not paying for that.

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-That is so, but it deals with the problem of disposing of intractable trade waste


which honorable members are discussing at the moment. One way is by incineration. However, by no means can all the waste be treated in that way. In fact, Vulcanus II will probably be treating 'approximately 20 per cent of the total 8 million litres of intractable trade waste currently stored, mainly on gene~ators' premises, but that still leaves the problem of, say, some 5 million to 6 million litres.

This stored waste is being depleted in other ways. It is being depleted by reprocessing as new processes are discovered of extracting from the intractable wastes a useful chemical material which can be used in the manufacturing processes which generated the waste. Then the storage of waste tends to be reduced. More efficient use in the manufacturing industry is tending to produce less trade waste than in the past and some overseas countries have more skills 'and more effective and sophisticated plant than we have which enable them to extract from the intractable waste more m'aterial which can be used again in the processes which generate the waste.

Therefore, there are four different ways in which this waste can be and is being reduced. Firstly, by reprocessing; secondly, by more efficient and sophisticated methods and pl'ant for processing; thirdly, by sales overseas to countries which are able to use what they can extract from the trade waste more effectively than we can; and fourthly, by the visit of the ship Vulcanus II which is expected in this State about April or M'ay of next year.

The wastes themselves are mainly chemical and inflrammable wastes. Most of them are highly toxic and, as indicated by the previous speaker, most are stored on the premises of the generators. In the m'ain, they are stored in 44-gallon drums and earth bunds which will and can prevent not only the spread of the material in the event of a leak but any problems from fires which are likely to occur.

Mr Walker made a considerable case about illegal dumping. He made many allegations about dumping which is being carried out illegally. At one stage

he suggested that the Environment Protection Authority was aware of illegal dumping. I cannot imagine why the authority, the Government, the Opposition or anyone else would have any interest in not pursuing allegations about illegal dumping. Of course, it is in the interests of all citizens and all political parties in this State to ensure that the dangers which ensue from the dumping of intractable wastes should be immediately stopped. I can give Mr Walker and everyone else a complete assurance that if any evidence can be produced or any information given which will enable the authority to nail the offenders, action will be immediately forthcoming.

Later on, I should like to discuss some of the penalties which can be imposed on people who disregard the Environment Protection Act and the rules m'ade under that Act. To claim that the Environment Protection Authority is aware of these offences is to mislead the House. It is possible that a junior officer in the authority may know something about them. If he does, he certainly has not told the officers who are responsible for carrying out the provisions of the Act and the regulations made under it.

Allegations have been made in this State for some two or three weeks that illegal dumping is taking place, and tonight there have been allegations that the Environment Protection Authority knows about ,this, but the Government is waiting only on confirmation and information about that type of problem. The authority does not know and has not been given any information about it and, therefore, if the Opposition wishes to continue irresponsibly, as it has in the past few weeks, making claims and 'allegations that somebody is offending against the Environment Protection Authority, then it should come forward immediately with detailed information. I assure members of the Opposition that action will be taken.

One needs to examine the future of the various elements of liquid waste disposal. Where the major part of the problem is concern(:d, which is the


50000 megalitres of waste disposal which goes into the sewers, this sort of waste disposal treatment ought to be continued. I see no reason why the capacity of the sewers of Melbourne to handle harmless liquid material should not continue well into the future so that the problem of the greatest part of this liquid waste disposal will be handled in the same way as in the past.

As I have indicated, there will be some problems about the life of the plants established at TuIlamarine and Broadmeadows. I believe the life of the plant at Tullamarine is in the vicinity of seventeen years and that the life of the plant at Broadmeadows is in the vicinity of four years.

The Hon. R. J. Eddy-What about the new proposed site?

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-The honorable member is well aware of the proposed site. Mr Walker chided me for not remembering the details of the Broadmeadows Camp Road site. On that occasion-Mr Eddy may be prepared to support me in this-I said that I was aware of the Broadmeadows application but I did not know whether it applied to the actual address of the site to which the honorable member was referring. I immediately checked on that and gave the honorable member the appropriate answer. Mr Eddy and I both now know that there is a site in Camp Road, Broadmeadows, where a permit has been sought for the disposal of waste. The Health Commission has already examined the background of the site and has imposed certain conditions on it. It is intended to advertise the matter so that the citizens who are affected may make their objections. That is the proper statutory way in which such a site is established.

The next step, of course, is for objections to be made to that proposal at Broadmeadows. So far as intractable trade wastes are concerned. this is really the crunch. This is part of the trade waste problem on which Mr Walker's arguments Tely and I acknowledge that this is the difficult

[COUNCIL

part, and one which the inter-departmental committee is mainly examining. It is also the part to which the Government is directing most of its attention at present in order to find a solution. The solution will rest, no doubt in part, upon the finding or the construction of a suitable land fill site.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-I disagree. The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-There

are ways of providing a land fill site. In the ultimate necessity, of course, a land fill site can be concrete lined.

The sitting was suspended at 6.30 p.m. until 8.3 p.m.

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTONBefore the suspension of the sitting for dinner the House was dealing with the motion moved by Mr Walker on the failure of the Government to provide adequate facilities for the safe disposal of liquid trade waste. We dealt with the magnitude of the problem and the ways in which it was being overcome. Intractable trade wastes are a small part of the total liquid waste to which the motion refers and to which Mr Walker did not refer. The Government came to the conclusion-and I am sure the vote will show-that the proportion of liquid wastes about which it is chiefly concerned is the 2 million litres a year of a total of more than 50 000 million litres a year, and I said that apart from that the Government was coping adequately with the problem. There was no suggestion in Mr Walker's speech-as I am sure there will be no suggestion in the National Party's contribution to the debate, because it cannot be suggested--':that the Government is not dealing adequately with that part of the problem.

I do not believe members of the Opposition clearly understand the complexity of dealing with intractable trade wastes. I hesitate to suggest that members of the National Party do not understand the problem, because I hope they do. The Government has established a committee which has made considerable progress, and has made recommendations about the ways in which liquid waste ought to be trea ted. The Government has made


decisions based on those reports and recommendations, one of which-the decision on Dargile-was abortive. Decisions still need to be made, but a fair part of that field has been covered in describing the action that must be taken to deal with intractable liquid trade wastes.

The Hon. W. A. Landeryou-What are you doing with the 2 million?

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON-I said that 2 million litres of intractable liquid trade wastes was generated each year and indicated how some of the waste was being dealt with. I shall indicate the penalties provided under the Environment Protection Act.

The Hon. W. A. Landeryou-For the benefit of the House, could you just indicate again what you are doing with the 2 million?

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON--I suggested that that was the addition each year to the total amount of intractable trade wastes, and said that there were a number of ways in which that waste is being dealt with. I said that, firstly, more sophisticated manufacturing procedures are being used to produce from the waste chemicals that could be used again in the manufacturing process; secondly, that some of it was being transported overseas to countries which had more sophisticated manufacturing processes that could extract from it useful solvents that could be used, for instance, in the paint industry; and thirdly, that early next year an incineration ship would visit this country-admittedly, not at the expense of the Australian Governmentto incinerate at least 20 per cent of the trade waste.

I shall copy my opponent on the other side, without apologies, and read the penalties for contravention of the provisions of the Environment Protection Act and regulations. Section 20 provides that all persons who discharge, emit or deposit wastes into the environment must be licensed to do so under the Act. Section 27 (1) provides penalties for any person who discharges, emits or deposits any waste into the environment without being licensed to do so. The penalties are, for the first offence. not more

than $500; for the second and subsequent offences, not more than $5000, and in the case of continuing offences, not more than $2000 a day.

Section 27 (2) provides penalties for any licensed person who contravenes or fails to comply with any c;ondition, limitation or restriction to which the licence is subject. The penalties are not to exceed $5000, and in the case of a continuing offence, a penalty of not more than $2000 a day.

Penalties are also provided for illegal dumping by a licensed person at an unlicensed site, and prosecutions could also be made under the general provisions of the Act. Section 45 (3) outlines the penalties for contravention of section 45 (1) and sets down the standards for the con trol of solid wastes and soil pollution. The penalties for contravention of this section are not more than $5000, and $2000 a day for a continuing offence.

Following the allegations that have been made over the past few weeks that persons are illegally dumping intractable trade wastes the Government is awaiting receipt of the information upon which the Opposition has based its accusations. The carriage of this matter has been my responsibility for a relatively short time, but my colleagues in the Government have had a good deal to do with the matter and they will have something to say about it during the debate.

I ask the House to recognize-I do not think the Opposition recognizes it -the extreme complexity of making rules and regulations about this small but difficult part of the total problem of the disposal of intractable liquid trade wastes. As I stated in a speech from which Mr Walker quoted at length, the Government is acting on the matter and has made policy decisions about it. I am not able to discuss those decisions tonight. Progress is being made by the interdepartmental committee. The problem is not critical, and the Government has the situation under control. Long before it can become critical the Government will act to ensure that liquid trade wastes are dealt with in an appropriate way.


The Hon. W. R. BAXTER (North Eastern Province) -Members of the National Party approached this debate with an open mind. Having seen the terms of the motion moved by Mr Walker, we had decided that we would hear the cut and thrust of the debate before deciding which side we should support. Members of the National Party listened with interest to the remarks made by the Deputy Leader of the Opposition, and thought that he made a creditable speech. We disagreed with some parts of it and thought Mr Walker went overboard with some of his accusations.

After discussion, my colleagues and I decided that, provided the Minister for Conservation put up a spirited defence, we would support the Government on the motion. At about twenty minutes past six this evening I noted that the Minister was looking at the clock and at Mr President and I thought, "Obviously the Minister is praying for 6.30 p.m. to come around so that we can adjourn and he can do a bit of swotting up over the dinner adjournment" .

The Minister's performance to then was disgraceful, to put it mildly, and I take his point that he has only had the "carriage", to use his term, of this particular responsibility for a short time. However, it must be faced that the last elections were held on 5 May, and that is some months ago. I looked forward to a more substantial contribution by the Minister after the suspension of the sitting for dinner than prior to it, and I was very disappointed. At this stage, the National Party has no option but to support the Opposition on this issue.

In his opening remarks, the Minister called upon the Oxford English Dictionary and tried to cast aspersions on Mr Walker's terminology in asserting that Victoria is facing a critical situation. I reject entirely the Minister's attempt to do so because no matter what anyone says, in my definition of "critical", it is indeed a critical situation. It was unbecoming of the Minister to attempt to cast doubt upon Mr Walker's motives.

[COUNCIL

I disagree also with the Minister's comments that Mr Walker was reading his speech. Obviously, Mr Walker was using copious notes but at least his contribution to the debate was far more interesting than that of the Minister; his speech was easier to follow, it had some sense of sequence, and it had some interest. I hope Mr Walker, as he becomes more experienced in debates in the House, will be able to do without reading copious notes, and I reject those aspersions made by the Minister also.

Mr Walker may have done more credit to the motion he moved had he restricted its terms to intractable rather than disposable liquid wastes because all honorable members will agree that the disposal of other sorts of waste, while they might leave something to be desired, is proceeding reasonably well. Some waste enters the sewerage system of Melbourne and many honorable members will recall legislation passed by the House, certainly since I have been a member in the past twelve or fourteen months, which enabled the Board of Works to recoup the costs of receiving that sort of waste; so Victorians need not be too concerned about that, although certainly it needs to be watched.

The scheme of the Ministry for Conservation of waste exchange, that what is waste in some industry is of use in another industry, is a bold and imaginative plan. I commend the Ministry for Conservation for that measure, which was introduced by the predecessor of the present Minister for Conservation, Mr Borthwick. The scheme is obviously of value. What I am talking of and what I believe Mr Walker was talking of is intractable waste. Obviously Mr Hamilton has some difficulty with the definition of intractable waste-most other honorable members do not.

The Hon. W. V. Houghton-Tha t is not what the motion says.

The Hon. W. R. BAXTER-I have just pointed out that Mr Walker may have served the purpose of the motion better if he had restricted the class of waste to intractable waste. Mr


Walker made an innuendo and an allegation concerning the provision of a fire truck to Heathcote which was in some way a blatant pay-off for the adoption of the Dargile site. I do not believe that is the case. I give the Government some credit for being honest in some aspects and in this case Mr Walker's allegation that it was an inducement to the shire and people of Heathcote is unfair.

If one examines Mr Walker's allegations of illegal dumping of intractable trade waste, it is only fair that he should act on the interjection made by the Minister that he provide the Government with details of those allegations. If someone in Sherbrooke saw intractable wastes being dumped illegally, why did that person telephone Mr Walker and not the Minister for Conservation? That is rather difficult to understand. I should have thought a citizen of the community, unless he were blatantly politically biased, would telephone the Minister for Conservation. Therefore, why does Mr Walker not provide the information to the Minister so that the sincerity of the Government can be tested? If the Government refuses to act on the information, honorable members will know the Government is pulling the wool over our eyes. The ball is in Mr Walker's court. If he has information, let him provide it to the Government to test the sincerity of the Government.

I am grateful to Mr Walker for reading out a press release issued on 4 May 1979 by the Minister of Water Supply. I had intended to do so myself because it is completely unbecoming of any Minister of the Crown to issue such a press release. The fact that it received no publicity is an indication of what the media thought about it. The Minister would have been far better employed in informing the Liberal candidate for Bendigo Province exactly what went on at Heathcote. All honorable members will remember the occasion at Elmore when there was a meeting to discuss the Dargile site and the Liberal candidate for Bendigo Province claimed that there were no transport difficulties because the material could be railed to Heathcote-he did not

know that the rail line had been pulled out some years ago. Mr Reid, who was at that meeting, said it was a kangaroo court and that the Government was being tried in a kangaroo court. The Minister should have been informing his colleagues, not issuing press releases of that type. It is unbecoming of any Minister to issue that· sort of press release and I am glad Mr Walker drew the attention of the House to it.

Mr. Walker also read out a press report from the Herald, which I had also intended to read, of 24 April 1979. The caption was, "Dump victory oursNP".

That is the truest statement the Herald has ever printed about the National Party because the proposal to establish a dump at Dargile threatened the whole of the water catchment north of the divide. Why should Melbourne be transferring its waste products to the other side of the divide and threatening a productive sector of the State? No wonder the National Party rose up and fought against it.

Honorable members interjecting.

The Hon. W. R. BAXTER-It is all very well for members of the Government to take this rather disparaging attitude to the actions that were taken then. The Government backed down, notwithstanding the pious press release put out by the former Minister for Conservation and the former Minister for Local Government dated 26 April 1979, saying that they had second thoughts for other reasons. In my opinion there is no explanation other than the effectiveness of the campaign mounted by many people, including National Party members of Parliament and rank and file members. The right decision was made by the Government in response to the situation that was drawn to its attention-and it was valid. Indeed, if one wonders why it was valid, one has only to read the reports to which Mr Walker referred. The Draft Preliminary Environment Report on Permanent Disposal of Intractable Residue Wastes from Industrial Liquid Waste Treatments and Processes, at page 4 states, inter alia:


The site is elevated and within the catchment of Cornella Creek that drains to Lake Cooper. The site is close to the catchment boundary of creeks draining to the Goulburn River. -Once that fact was established, there should have been no question about Dargile as a site for the dumping of liquid trade wastes. It should have been rejected forthwith because it was completely unfair. It would have been an injustice and very poor Government planning to site a waste dump in that town and thus threaten the water supply and the productive capacity of the State of Victoria.

The House is not discussing large quantities of waste. About 7·6 megalitres are stored in Melbourne and that is being increased at the rate of 2·5 megalitres a year. That is not a huge amount of waste to be disposed of and I believe there are ways of doing it. Landfill operations have received a lot of criticism and Mr Walker has referred to some of the drawbacks, but technology exists to establish a landfill operation to store that quantity of waste and concrete it, as the now absent Minister mentioned. It is not a huge quantity. I refer honorable members to an average example that I, as an irrigator, can use. I have a water right of 550 megalitres. The small amount of waste referred to now is about 10 megali tres.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-It is enough to kill everyone in the country.

The Hon. W. R. BAXTER-That is so; it is a dangerous amount. Therefore, it can be sited close to the point from which it is generated, somewhere south of the divide. There is the immediate problem of disposing of present wastes and what has accumulated since the closing of the Sunshine tip in 1977. The Government should have taken greater steps to have the ship Vulcanus dispose of that amount.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-Private enterprise is bringing that here.

The Hon. W. R. BAXTER-The ship is coming here at the behest of private enterprise and it is taking 20 per cent of what has been accumulated in this State. My information is that the nature of the waste is such that about 80 per cent could be disposed of by

[COUNCIL

the Vulcanus, and as an emergency interim measure, notwithstanding that it might be expensive, the Government ought to take steps to either encourage or compel the holders of this waste to dispose of it by means of the Vulcanus until the State has a permanent and viable disposal site, if that is possible.

The Government stands condemned for not taking greater steps to utilize the Vulcanus on its visit. It is not as though it would be a costly exercise for the Government. I am quite sure the costs could be recouped from the industries that are generating the waste. No honorable member would argue that the transition of toxic waste for disposal should not be the responsibility of the industry that generates and accumulates it and that the industry concerned should not pay for its disposal. As Mr Walker has pointed out, the problem of waste disposal has to be orchestrated and controlled by someone and the only obvious means of control is through a Government instrumentality. It is time the Government was able to get that underway.

The Minister might say that the Government is working on it and has a committee examining it. I can appreciate that but the argument has been in use for quite a while. It was raised in October and November last year when DargiIe was first chosen as a site for liquid waste disposal, and was rejected. As an honorable member interjected, the argument was used again in June of this year by the unfortunately eliminated' Mr WilIiams who ought still to be in the House because he is a man of great capacity. It is now October and no advance appears to have been made except that the Minister is awaiting a fourth report. Let the Minister produce that report so that honorable members can see what is in it. Indications to both the Opposition and the National Party are that the fourth report probably contains very little.

If he had it, we would have heard about it.

16 October 1979] Liquid \:V aste Disposal 3237

The Hon. W. V. Houghton-You are in for an awful shock.

The Hon. W. R. BAXTER-I am interested to hear the Minister make that comment because from his remarks tonight one could only conclude, and the conclusion would have been reached by Mr Dunn and Mr Wright and every member on the Opposition benches, that the report says nothing at all. The Minister was looking for something to hang his hat on and there was no peg. I f the honorable gentleman has the report, let him produce it here tonight.

Having said that, and having listened to the points made by Mr Walker, and the pathetic response by the Minister, I indicate that unless the National Party is convinced to the contrary by other members who may be following on the Government side, on this occasion we shall have no alternative but to support this motion.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE (Geelong Province) -I do not want to put a damp blanket on proceedings because we have enjoyed a bit of frivolity with our National Party friends, but 1 believe this particular matter is above frivolity. My colleague, Mr Walker, has done this House and the people of Victoria a service by bringing this important matter to the notice of the people of Victoria. He said that a number of people have come to his electorate office-and a number of people have come to my office-and expressed their concern about toxic waste. I also have letters in my files expressing such concern.

The Hon. W. V. Houghton-I am concerned about it.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-I am pleased to hear that. It did not appear that way. This Government has an app'alling track record on the environment and in controlling pollution in this State. In a speech on 19 September, my counterpart, Mr Jenkins, took me to task because I criticized a company in Geelong for carrying out certain works which I believed were destructive to the environment. The

crux of his speech was that there cannot be development without some aspect of the environment being upset or destroyed; in other words, we must strike a compromise.

The Hon. Glyn Jenkins-Of course you must.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-That may be so, but where does the compromise start, and with whom? ~r Jenkins went on to tell us about SIr Henry Bolte's vision and all Victoria getting behind his vision of development. That is the vision we are suffering from today, and that is why the fish from Corio Bay taste like kerosene and why we cannot eat mussels because they are full of mercury and cadmium. It is the result of inactivity by the Government.

Another area of pollution in which this Government has a bad track record is air pollution. In 1954 thousands of people died in London in the smog, and in 1958 this Parliament introduced the Clean Air Act.

The PRESIDENT (the Hon. F. S. Grimwade)-Order! The motion deals with liquid trade waste, not air pollution.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-Mr President, the Opposition is concerned about trade waste because of the record of inactivity by this Government and 1 am raising points of inactivity of the Government to prove my concern.

The Hon. W. V. Houghton-You were not at the meeting on air pollution to which you were invited.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-I was at the meeting on the air pollution committee and I asked a question there. The Opposition is concerned because it has seen the environment deteriorate over this period and knows that the Environment Protection Authority was formed through political expediency .. Its formation was an election promise in 1970 when Sir Henry Bolte got the wind up. Then having finally established the Environment Protection Authority the then Premier did not give it teeth to operate. The authority has never been fully staffed. At


times it has been only 80 per cent staffed. How does the Government expect the officets of the Environment Protection Authority to operate when they have no laboratory? They cannot do so. They are hamstrung by this Government which does nothing for the environment. It pays lip service to this problem which is facing everybody.

I wish to speak briefly on some of the problems in trade waste overseas, because the Minister referred confidently to the fact that the Victorian situation is not critical. People in the United States of America, I suppose, did not think they were in a critical situation. What the Minister does not realize is that the chemical industry is getting bigger 'and bigger all the time. At present something like 4 million chemicals are derived from natural products, and 60000 different chemicals are in frequent use. In America something like 100 new chemioals are found every year, so we are dealing with an immense problem which a lot of experts and a lot of people do not know a great deal about. America has had some experiences of what can happen through this lack of knowledge.

The Hon. W. V. Houghton-Like what?

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-I can give the House a few instances. First of all there was the Love Canal in New York, where in the 1940s the Hooker Chemicals company began dumping waste. Thousands of chemical filled drums were dumped directly into the receding waters of the unused canal on the edge of Niagara Falls, and they back-filled over this.

The Hon. Glyn Jenkins-Is it relevant to this debate?

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-It is not. It is proving what can happen through inactivity and that is why the Opposition is pressing the Government to do something about this waste. After several years, complaints were made by the residents about foul smelling liquid seeping through their basements and the local and State authorities eventually responded to their complaints. The tests showed the presence

[COUNCIL

of many toxic chemicals. Children born of women living in the area suffered defects 50 per cent above the average and since then they have had to evacuate 200 families from the area.

The Hon. N. B. Reid-What is the source of the information?

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-The New Scientist, 29 June 1979. I will move on to another example. In Louisvi lie, Kentucky, a nineteen year-old man was killed instantly when he was dumping liquid waste into a disused well which contained other waste dumped there twenty years ago. Here is an interesting example about midnight dumpers. In Warren County, North Carolina, the Ward Transformer Company paid a "midnight dumper" called Robert Burns-he should have his . name changed-to get rid of 120 000 litres of waste oil contaminated with highly poisonous polychlorinated biphenyls. Bums and his two sons sprayed the oil along the verges of 430 kilometres of rural roads. The State has now to dispose of 40 000 tonnes of contaminated soil, which it plans to bury. The cost of clearing up after that mess was $12 million. That could happen in this State because illegal dumping is taking place now.

The Hon. Glyn Jenkins-Tell us where.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-My colleague told the House about it.

The Hon. Glyn Jenkins-Tell us one example.

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-That is the start. That is the one we know about. What about the ones we do not know about? In the County of Tennessee, a chemical corporation buried 300 000 drums of toxic material in a tural area. When people complained about their drinking water, tests showed that it was severely contaminated. In Meadowlands, New Jersey, Charles City, Iowa and Valley of the Drums, Kentucky, after floods in the Ohio River system last December, hundreds of stinking, corroded 55-gallon drums were found floating in Stump Gap Creek. They were fished out by soldiers and State officials. Investigations revealed that they had been swept

16 October 1979] Liquid Waste Dispo$al 3239

down from farmland where 25000 other decomposing drums, some leaking dangerous chemicals, were strewn about the Valley of the Drums.

They are some instances of what can happen with these dangerous toxic chemicals and why the Opposition is concerned. The Government is talking about its fourth and fifth reports, but like all Government reports they are never published. The Opposition does not want to see reports but wants the Government to go into action. There is another instance where some chemical which was used for a fire retardant got into some feed stock and the aftermath of that episode was that 30000 cattle valued at $12 million were lost, also 4 600 pigs, 14 000 sheep, 2 million chickens, 2 600 Ibs of butter, 18 000 Ibs of cheese, 34 000 Ibs of dry milk products and 5 million eggs. All had been contaminated in just one example of misuse of dangerous chemicals. The Opposition asserts that the Government should have a tight control on these substances. New chemicals are being developed all the time and the Government should learn, from the problems overseas and from the World Health Organization, what is taking place in other countries, and take strong steps to eradicate the contamination from these wastes.

If you could bear with me, Mr President, I would like to quote from the A ustralian Financial Review of 28 June 1979, an article whi.ch gives a brief description of what the United Kingdom is doing. The article states:

In the United Kingdom much of the responsibility for enforcing regulations rests with the factory inspectorate which tends to approach its task in a comparatively flexible way. This is in contrast to the United States where the authorities have to have a search warrant.

The United Kingdom factory inspectoratewhich does not need warrants to enter plantsexercises considerable discretionary powers over the implementation of safety requirements. It looks at what is practically possible in terms of cost and equipment as well as what is desirable.

The factory inspectorate can. is~u~ . thr~e different types of enforcement notice If It IS dissatisfied with safety standards at a plant. It can serve improvement notices on companies that are too slow acting on less formal recom~e!1~ations; it can put out a deferred prohibitIOn notice, which means a manufacturer has to

make certain improvements within a specified time or else close; and it can issue a total prohibition notice which forces a producer to shut down the plant concerned immediately. That is the type of legislation the Opposition would like to see introduced in Victoria. This is the type of strict control that will have to be exercised.

In reply to my colleague, the Minister said that the position is not critical. I believe it is extremely critical. I believe we have been caught napping on many other aspe~ts in th~s State. We were caught nappmg on aIr pollution. The Air Pollution Act of 1958 was more stringent than the British code. From 1958 until 1970, when the Environment Protection Authity was formed, not one prosecution had taken place in Victoria. Two cases got as far as the courts and the Government withdrew the charges. That is the track record on air pollution and the Opposition does not want that carried on into trade waste. I worked with a local sewerage authority and I know something about trade waste. For many years, and it is still happening, trade waste agreements have not been worth the paper they are written on. When the agreements were first introduced, they were meant to restrict the disposal of liquid trade wastes and to stop pollution caused by trade wastes which were being discharged into the sewers without treatment. As soon as the inspectors left after the job was finished the companies were able to operate as previously simply because there were insufficient officers owing to a lack of funds. The Opposition is concerned that the Government will further cut back funds and prevent the Environment Protection Authority from being effective.

The Hon. N. F. Stacey-How many such cases were discovered this year at the Carrum treatment works?

The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-I could not say as I do not have the figures with me. The Minister for Conservation admits that overseas companies have the skills to overcome these problems but the honorable gentleman did not state whether the Government is in touch


with those companies to tap their skills on trade wastes. I hope the Government is in constant liaison with overseas countries which have these problems.

The Hon. A. J. Hunt-It is. The Hon. R. A. MACKENZIE-The

Minister claimed that the Opposition was irresponsible. I do not see anything irresponsible in a member of this House raising a matter which is of extreme importance to the future health of generations to come. I believe the Government is evading its responsibility. There are 200 000 megalitres of waste which must be treated in various ways. Twenty per cent of it is already being treated but what will happen to the remaining 80 per cent? The Minister has not informed the House of what will happen and honorable members must wait on a -report for the information. Honorable members witnessed how the Government fell to pieces when it selected a site but was then subjected to pressure when election time came around.

I support my colleague, Mr Walker, and his fine, researched speech delving into all aspects of this problem. I hope the Government will take note of what has been said in the House tonight, especially with our friends from the National Party backing the Labor Party.

The Hon. A. J. HUNT (Minister of Education)-I have profound respect for the efficacy of the democratic Parliamentary and political system involving, as it does, constant stimulation of each side by the other with an interplay of ideas and appeals to the public. In the long term the public sees through the self-interests and machinations of one party or another and decides on the basis of common sense. In general a debate such as this assists in the process and will probably do so even today despite, with great r~spect, the manipulation of this system.

I am at times filled with disgust, even contempt, for the cynical way in which some individuals and some parties seek to manipulate situations for their temporary advantage, regardless of the long-term interests, and to play upon fears and, in fact, engage in

[COUNCIL

scare-mongering. Tonight's debate falls in the latter category, even though it may turn out in the long term to have some advantage.

I am sorry to have to charge the Deputy Leader of the Opposition in this House and his colleague, the Leader of the Opposition in another place, with irresponsibility, but I do so charge. If the Leader of the Opposition in another place and the Deputy Leader of the Opposition in this House had the slightest evidence to back their claims of large-scale illegal dumping, it was their bounden duty as responsible members of Parliament holding the offices which they do to place all the evidence at their disposal squarely before the Environment Protection Authority immediately, well knowing that every hour which they delayed in doing so made it more likely that those who were responsible would escape. Having failed to produce that evidence, they are irresponsible. If they are making allegations. without having that evidence, they are equally irresponsible. They were irresponsible if they had the evidence and failed to disclose it and irresponsible if they made the allegations without the supporting evidence. One or the other argument must apply. I can assure the House that those two members have not put these facts, which have been alleged in a very vague way tonight, before the Environment Protection Authority.

I have had the opportunity of discussing the matter with officers of the authority this afternoon, and I am informed that no complaints or evidence of illegal dumping have been produced to the authority to this stage. Whichever way one looks at it, the Leader of the Opposition in another place and the Deputy Leader of the Opposition in this place have either been grossly irresponsible and derelict in their duty to report evidence of a most serious nature or, on the basis of rumour without supporting evidence, they have been leading the public to believe that large-scale dumping is going on.

If one goes back to the last election campaign or even to six months before, one finqs that the Labor Party, through its environmental spokesman of the day,


Mr Cathie of another place, and the National Party joined forces to attack the genuine endeavours of the Government to find a long-term solution to the problem. At that point, the members of those parties did not have the slightest knowledge of the scientific facts. Both the National Party and the Labor Party sought to rule out a possible solution without any consideration of the scientific facts or the available evidence. They did not care about the facts or the problem; all they cared about was to seek and obtain cheap political advantage.

I shall outline the magnitude of the problem in one way or another. An amount of 50000 megalitres of industrial effluent is discharged under licence pursuant to stringent conditions into the sewers each year. In addition, 112 megalitres are discharged to land-fill in each year. Only three remaining megalitres consist of intractib!e liquid wastes and it is not desirable for these wastes to be disposed of by existing land-fill methods. Those three megalitres, representing a minute proportion of the total liquid waste stream, were formerly discharged at the Sunshine tip. The Sunshine tip happens to be located in basalt country, in an old quarry which everyone believed for a long time was safe in every respect.

When the question of licence renewal came up for review, the Mines Department, as it then was, produced evidence before the Environment Protection Appeals Board which indicated that minute fractures in the basalt had been discovered and that this could mean, many generations hence, that pollutants could leech through these fissures to Port Phillip Bay. On the basis of that evidence from a Government department, the Environment Protection Appeals Board very properly declined to renew the licence which expired in March 1977.

Immediately the decision was announced, the search by the Government for long-term methods for the disposal of this remaining, almost infinitesimal proportion of the total liquid waste stream, was intensified. All possible methods were considered and, contrary

to the claims· of Mr Walker, no one method was found to provide the solution.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-The Government has not found one method at all.

The Hon. A. J. HUNT-Yes, indeed. Mr Walker has referred to incineration or pyrolysis. Mr Walker used that term and defined it, but it is a sad fact that that method does not succeed for all pollutants. With some pollutants it means a discharge of further pollutants into the atmosphere which can again come down to earth as an additive to rain.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-You should do your homework as that is not true.

The Hon. A. J. HUNT-It is true. Even with incineration there will still be poisonous residues associated with some intractible wastes. These residues must be disposed of in one way or another, either by the land fill method or by the more modern process of entombment which may entail concrete lining of the sides of the hole and full concrete cover.

As well as examining these different methods, the Government undertook a process of encouragement of recycling and recovering of materials. The paint manufacturers association has, for example, responded to that encouragement and issued a code of conduct pursuant to which some paint companies are now recovering for re-use without creating any problem the whole of the solvents used in paint manufacture.

The Hon. E. H. Walker-Why does the Government not make it mandatory?

The Hon. A. J. HUNT-It is not possible, with the existing state of technology, to make it mandatory for this to be done with all types of materials.

The encouragement by the Government and the work being undertaken by industry itself has meant that the character of the waste stream is steadily changing and many of the wastes that were once regarded as intractible are now being recovered and re-used in one way or another, but it is still neces-


sary to dispose of the last residues. Officers of the Government undertook studies throughout the State and identified eight possible sites for a secure land-fill disposal unit for the last vestiges that could not otherwise be disposed of. Of those eight sites, the Dargile site appeared to be the most promising and the Government, to its credit, announced the investigations which were underway. A series of detailed state:ments were released giving more and more information. In fact, all the information sought by local people, political interests and those who were concerned with the problem on environmental grounds was fully and frankly provided in every respect.

The Premier and the Ministers concerned gave unequivocal guarantees that further, more detailed studies would be undertaken to supplement the broad brush studies which gave the first indication that this appeared to be the preferable site and then undertook that the site would not be accepted unless the detailed studies showed it to be safe in every way with no possibility of harm to the environment or of leaching into underground water supplies. By that stage, in advance of the more detailed studies, Mr Cathie in another place and the National Party had already taken up their positions. "Send it somewhere else. Don't put it here"; that was the irresponsible approach. It was not an approach designed to assist in solving the issue. It was an approach designed only to delay an answer, an approach designed simply to seek political advantage on a temporary basis for those undertaking the campaign, without any real concern for the long-term interests of Victoria.

The Hon. W. R. Baxter-It was an attempt to stop it from going to an unsuitable site.

The Hon. A. J. HUNT-The honorable member for North Eastern Province says it was an attempt to stop it going to an unsuitable site. If so, it was an attempt to predetermine the results of the detailed scientific investigation in which neither Mr Baxter nor his party were interested.

[COUNCIL

The detailed investigation showed that there was some possibility of ultimate leaching into the water supplies and the Government therefore then rejected the Dargile site and has since pursued the further investigations that were necessary to enable another site and other solutions to be recommended. The inter-departmental committee has now recommended another site on a preliminary basis. The attitude of the Labor Party and the National Party has made it clear to the Government that there would be no point in indicating the identity of that site at this stage, and we do not propose to do that.

The Hon. W. A. Landeryou-You don't even know it.

The Hon. A. J. HUNT-We do know it. On this occasion, instead of going to the public in the first instance, the conduct of the Labor Party and the National Party has made it necessary for the Government to carry out all the tests that are required, and not just preliminary tests, before any public disclosure takes place.

The Hon. W. A. Landeryou-That is what you said you had done at Dargile.

The Hon. A. J. HUNT-No. The Government indicated that the broad-brushstudies had been undertaken and that finer, detailed studies were to be undertaken. On this occasion, the Government will complete the detailed investigations, and triply satisfy itself that the site meets all the requirements of the interests of the people of Victoria before any announcement is made. What the Opposition and the National Party have achieved is a requirement that the Government must proceed, not openly but behind closed doors. That is at their instigation and that is the ,course that they have necessitated. The Government will continue to encourage recycling and minimization of the waste capacity that has to be disposed of in this way and looks forward to the visit to Australia next year of the incinerator ship Vulcanus as a temporary expedient only.

In the long term, the Government is determined to produce a range of options which will ensure that the liquid

waste stream of every description is disposed of in the best possible way with complete environmental care and safety and in the interests of the people of this State with reutilization and recycling wherever that is practicable.

MINISTERIAL STATEMENT Exploration and mining

The Hon. W. V. HOUGHTON (Minister for Conservation) -I desire to make a Ministerial statement to inform the House of the Government policy on exploration and mining in areas of Victoria managed by the National Parks Service and the Fisheries and Wildlife Division.

All national parks are managed by the National Parks Service, but the National Parks Service also manages many other types of reserves which are not national parks and are managed to different plans and regulations. They include a dairy farm, coastal parks, a wilderness area, State parks and reference areas.

All wildlife reserves are managed by the Fisheries and Wildlife Division.

The National Parks Act and the Wildlife Act both prescribe how permits to explore or exploit may be granted or rejected.

3244 Ministerial Statement

Under section 40 of the National Parks Act, exploration or exploitation may not be carried out in the park without the consent of the Minister and may be subject to such terms and conditions as he thinks fit to· impose.

The approval does not take effect until it has been laid before both Houses of Parliament for fourteen sitting days and it is revoked if either House passes a resolution to that effect.

Exploration and exploitation in wildlife reserves are subject to approval of the Minister and any conditions he sees fit to impose.

Exploration for minerals generally involves two main phases: A broad-scale preliminary non-destructive survey, followed by specific detailed exploration involving drilling and the like aimed at proving the economics of the resources.

It is important to differentiate between minerals for which exploration is undertaken under the Mines Act; oil and natural gas which are covered by the Petroleum Act; and gravel, stone, and so on, for which exploration and exploitation is done under various Acts such as the Extractive Industries, Local Government, Lands and SoH Conservation Acts.

POLICY 1. Reference areas In designated reference areas, for

which an Order in Council has been issued, exploration for, or development of minerals and petroleum, gas and stone will not be permitted.

2. National parks 2.1. Minerals

In order to achieve a better knowledge of the mineral resources of the State, it is sometimes necessary to approve mineral exploration in national pa.rks. Such exploration activity may proceed only subject to strict controls developed in consultation by the National Parks Service and the Department of Minerals and Energy and is to be confined to broad-scale, nondestructive survey activities.

The cutting of survey lines, exploratory drilling or mining in national parks will not be permitted other than in The Hon. W. V. Houghton

[COUNCIL

exceptional circumstances for areas designated by Order in Council, following consideration of each individual case and bearing in mind the interest of the State and the protection of the environment.

2.2. Petroleum In exceptional circumstances, ex

ploration for petroleum may be permitted in national parks, but only under strict controls which are designed to protect the environment. A decision regarding exploration will be made after careful examination of each particular case. Exploration will be approved only if this course is considered to be in the interests of the State and the resource can be extracted without detriment to the environment.

2.3. Stone In some cases there are existing

gravel pits, stone quarries, limestone quarries, and so on, in national parks. These may be the only source of supply for that material in these areas. Where an existing stone extractive industry is included in a national park, the future development of that industry will be considered on the merits of each individual case.

Any new quarry proposed to be developed by an authority including the National Parks Service will be considered on its own merits within the general framework of not favouring exploitation unless it can be demonstrated that such use is not in conflict with the primary uses.

3. Wilderness areas

The policy for wilderness areas recommended by the Land Conservation Council and approved by the Government will be the same as for national parks.

4. Other parks and Wildlife reserves

Because the types of other parks declared under the National Parks Act vary greatly, it is not reasonable to lay down a strict policy regarding exploration and mining. Similarly, the objectives for wildlife reserves may vary greatly from one reserve to anot~er. Each application for exploration or exploitation in other parks or
