The City of Fremantle has been undertaking groundwater monitoring on a six monthly basis since 1998. Site assessments and investigations for the area around and inside the South Fremantle Landfill site have been undertaken to determine the level of environmental impact associated with the landfill site. Additionally, the offsite monitoring has been undertaken to determine if there are any issues involving residential use of the groundwater that may be potentially contaminated by the landfill. This work demonstrates the City’s awareness of its responsibilities and duty of care to nearby residents and has been undertaken with the advice and support of the Department of Environment.
The City has completed a feasibility study into alternative land uses for the site on basis that retaining the site “as is” is considered inappropriate and as a result, further work is being progressed on the "Hollis Park" section of the site to determine the feasibility of future residential development on this portion of the site. |
In the meantime, the City of Fremantle will develop and implement a Long Term Management Plan for the site as it will be some time before any land use is realised and active.
