  • Environmental Management (a) The Operator must, prior to the commencement of any Train Services (including any new or varied Train Services): (i) cause a suitably qualified person reasonably acceptable to both Parties to prepare a report (“Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report”) containing an environmental investigation component and an environmental risk management component which respectively identify: (A) possible risks of Environmental Harm arising out of the proposed use of the Nominated Network by the Operator, including risks associated with those matters identified in Part 3 of Schedule 6; and (B) the manner in which the Operator proposes to address the possible risks of Environmental Harm identified in the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report as well as the roles and responsibilities, including financial responsibility, for the control measures proposed and an audit regime, provided that if the Operator has an existing Environmental Management System it proposes to use in connection with the proposed Train Services on the Nominated Network, the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report should also detail the extent to which the Operator believes its existing Environmental Management System addresses the risks identified in the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report; and (ii) provide a copy of the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report to Aurizon Network for its consideration and, if requested by Aurizon Network, a copy of the relevant parts of the Operator’s existing Environmental Management System referred to in the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report. (b) If the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report discloses areas of risk which, in the reasonable opinion of Aurizon Network, cannot be adequately managed by the proposals set out in the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report or, in the reasonable opinion of Aurizon Network, fails to identify and adequately deal with additional relevant environmental risks, then Aurizon Network may give notice to that effect to the Operator within thirty (30) days after the date on which the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report was received by Aurizon Network (or such other period as the Parties, acting reasonably, may agree), detailing the risks not so adequately managed or not so identified or adequately dealt with. If Aurizon Network does not give such notice, the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report, subject to Clause 9.1(k), shall be included in Part 1 of Schedule 9 and amendments made to this Agreement [(including variations to the Base Access Charges)] if applicable. [Bracketed text is only included where Operator pays non-TOP Access Charges] (c) If Aurizon Network gives notice pursuant to Clause 9.1 (b) the Operator may respond, by a date agreed by the Parties, with a written proposal which demonstrates how the Operator proposes to manage those risks (“Operator’s Proposal”). The Operator’s Proposal must: (i) contain an investigation of the areas of risk and/or additional relevant environmental risks referred to in Clause 9.1(b); (A) specify risk abatement or attenuation measures which the Operator proposes to undertake in relation to them; and/or (B) specify how the Access Charges might contain a component reflecting the cost to Aurizon Network of assuming all or some portion of the risk; (ii) in relation to paragraph (ii)(A) specify a timeframe for implementation of those measures; and (iii) specify details of any public consultation the Operator proposes to undertake in connection with the implementation of any such measures. (d) Aurizon Network may, acting reasonably, accept or reject all or part of the Operator’s Proposal.

[Bracketed text is only included where Operator pays non-TOP Access Charges] (f) If the Operator fails to submit to Aurizon Network an Operator’s Proposal by the date agreed by the Parties or if Aurizon Network rejects all or part of the Operator’s Proposal, Aurizon Network may advise the Operator of the risks not adequately managed or not identified or adequately dealt with and then either Party may refer the issue of whether the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report and/or the Operator’s Proposal does or does not adequately manage or does or does not identify or adequately deal with the relevant environmental risks to an expert for determination in accordance with Clause 18.3. (g) If the expert determines that the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report and/or Operator’s Proposal does adequately manage the risks or identifies and adequately deals with the risks, then the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report as modified by the Operator’s Proposal (if applicable) will, subject to Clause 9.1(k), be accepted and included in Part 1 of Schedule 9 and amendments made to this Agreement [(including variations to the Base Access Charges)] if applicable. [Bracketed text is only included where Operator pays non-TOP Access Charges] (h) If the expert determines that the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report and/or Operator’s Proposal does not adequately manage the risks or does not identify and adequately deal with the risks, then provided the Operator amends the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report in accordance with the expert’s determination and/or recommendations within the time frame specified by the expert, the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report as amended will, subject to Clause 9.1(k), be accepted and included in Part 1 of Schedule 9 and amendments made to the Agreement [(including variations to the Base Access Charges)] if applicable. [Bracketed text is only included where Operator pays non-TOP Access Charges] (i) If the expert determines that the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report and/or Operator’s Proposal does not adequately manage the risks or does not identify and adequately deal with the risks and the Operator fails to amend the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report in accordance with the expert’s determination and/or recommendations within the time frame specified by the expert, Aurizon Network may terminate this Agreement by written notice to the Operator and the End User. (j) The Parties agree to implement the determination of the expert. (k) If: (i) an Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report is included in Part 1 of Schedule 9; and (ii) amendments (if any) are made to this Agreement as a result of or in connection with that inclusion of the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report, then the commencement of the amendment of this Agreement to include the Environmental Investigation and Risk Management Report and those amendments is subject to and conditional upon the Operator being notified by Aurizon Network that all necessary amendments (if any) to the End User Access Agreement (including variations to the amounts payable by the End User) have been made in respect of such matters and any relevant nomination of the Operator by the End User in accordance with the End User Access Agreement has, if necessary, been varied.
