Environmental Education CentreThe JWPA and Deputy Major Donna Gates have received numerous complaints about the sand mining operation in Jacobs Well.
Mining Lease operators have been asked to install a tyre wash and gratings to keep our roads clean. Fines of up to $2000.00 per incident may be imposed!
JWPA has obtained a copy of the mining lease operating conditions. They will be posted here shortly. Please contact the JWPA or Donna Gates directly if you observe any breaches of these conditions.
