Federal Resources and Northern Australia Minister Matt Canavan on Friday announced that A$1.9-million will be spent at the waste rock dump at the Rum Jungle Creek South, near Darwin, to ensure that the site continues to meet national standards for radiation protection.
“The waste rock dump cover system requires maintenance to ensure its future integrity. The maintenance work will ensure areas around the site, including recreational areas near Rum Jungle, are safe to visit and meet international standards,” Canavan said.
