Palaszczuk gives June 13 deadline for Adani approvals

Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk on Friday said that Indian major Adani’s two outstanding management plans for its multi-billion dollar Carmichael project should be resolved by June 13.

The deadline comes after the Premier earlier this week called a meeting between Adani, the Coordinator-General and the state’s environmental departments to hash out plans to finalise the two outstanding environmental management plans, including the groundwater management plan, which was earlier approved by the federal government, and a management plan for the endangered black-throated finch.
