As a long term employee of the Bloomfield Group, I fully endorse the proposed modification to amend our mining plans, submitted by Rix’s Creek. Our commitment to responsible mining practices and environmental stewardship aligns seamlessly with this proposal. The amendment focuses on enhancing infrastructure within previously approved disturbance areas, without altering our annual production. Rigorous assessments confirm that the changes will have minimal environmental impact. Our company’s track record of adhering to regulations and implementing best practices underscores the proactive approach reflected in this modification. Approving it will not only benefit our operations but also positively impact the local economy and the broader community. I urge the Department of Planning to consider our submission favourably, and look forward to many more years of responsible mining together.

I believe the mod 10 upgrade would benefit the community through improved environmental output through the changes. Also a positive for all the workers in the area. It also affects the Bloomfield minesite which relies on coal from Rix's Creek.

I wish to make a submission in support of the Rix's Creek North Modification 10. The changes in the modification involve very little change for the general public yet are very important for the mine's success. For example, the upgrade to the washery will make coal processing more efficient and the tailings dewatering facility is good for the environment, reducing the reliance on tailings dams. The in-pit rock crushing facility will improve the haul roads and reduce operating costs. I am employed at Bloomfield Colliery, the company's other, and much smaller mine. I am lending my support to this modification as the success of Rix's Creek is vital to the whole company's future and the stability of hundreds of jobs at both of their mines.

I am writing to express my full support for the proposed modification to amend mining plans submitted by Rix's Creek.
These modifications, aimed at improving mining efficiency, will benefit the community by allowing resources to be gathered more effectively from an unchanged disturbance area. Such innovations promise increased performance and better outcomes, which are essential for progress.
Rix's Creek, a wholly Australian-owned operation, ensures that wealth generated from Australian resources remains within local Australian economies. The company does not engage in tax avoidance through offshoring or other methods. Additionally, Rix's Creek has a well-documented and tested commitment to positive environmental outcomes.
The Department of Planning should recognize the significant environmental and economic benefits of these operations provide and approve this modification.

I support The Mod 10, it is not a significant change with all improvements being carried out within the existing mine area. There will be minimal environmental impact. There will be no changes to current mining operations or the currently approved disturbance area.
