Notification of Registration of Interest for Aboriginal stakeholders NGH Pty Ltd (NGH) has been contracted by SPV X-Elio Holbrook Pty Ltd to undertake an Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Assessment (ACHA) to inform an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the proposed Maxwell Downs Solar Farm located at 59 Maxwell Road, Maxwell (Lot 3 in DP618442). The proposed Maxwell Downs Solar Farm has been designated as a State Significant Development (SSD-45083695) and determination will be assessed under an EIA.

The purpose of the consultation with Aboriginal people is to assist the proponent in the preparation of the ACHA. As the proposal is being assessed as an SSD, no Aboriginal Heritage Impact Permit will be required. In order to fulfil the requirements, set out in the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Consultation Requirements for Proponents 2010, NGH is seeking interested Aboriginal parties who hold cultural knowledge of the assessment area to register their interest in the consultation process for the project and to assist in the determination of cultural significance of any Aboriginal objects subject to the application.

Registrations should be provided in writing to:

NGH Pty Ltd
Unit 8, 27 Yallourn Street, FYSHWICK ACT 2609
Or via email to: ngh@nghconsulting.com.au

Closing date for registration is 10th November 2022.

Those registering an interest will be contacted to discuss the project further. Those who do register are advised their details will be provided to Heritage NSW and the Local Aboriginal Land Council, unless they specifically instruct in writing that their details are not to be forwarded.
