Full description

The Macquarie Island station area has been subject to various fuel spills over time and from 1993 to 2019 the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) pursued a program of applied research to remediate fuel contamination at specific locations across the station area. The report provided here was submitted to the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) of Tasmania in 2023 and compiles the Project’s comprehensive dataset, evaluates its quality and usability, and establishes whether the identified hydrocarbon contamination remaining at the site after remediation decommissioning in 2019 is likely to represent an ongoing risk to human health and/or ecological receptors.

The report in full is provided with this record (with and without appendices). Refer to child record for separated PDF files of Appendix A-K and Appendix B data tables in .xlsx file format. The content and context of the appendices are fully described in the report and should be interpreted in conjunction with the report.

Report is cited as: AAD 2023, Macquarie Island Station, Hydrocarbon Investigation Synthesis and Risk Assessment, A Cleaner Antarctica Section, Australian Antarctic Division, Kingston, Tasmania.
