Environmental Reporting

We provide daily and monthly updates on our environmental performance.

Daily updates show compliance with limits for continuously monitored air emissions (sulphur dioxide, particulates (dust), oxides of nitrogen, and carbon monoxide).

Our monthly report provides the daily maximum and rolling 90th percentile values for each of the continuously monitored air emissions. It also details any exceedances for the reporting period and the percentage availability or downtime of emissions monitoring instruments.
