Why report collectively?
The Latrobe Valley energy generation companies
are all situated in a 30 kilometre zone in the Latrobe Valley Region of
Victoria, Australia. The companies, many of which have grown out of the
former State Electricity Commission of Victoria (SECV), have worked together
since the early 1970s to monitor and improve emissions to air, water and
land.
Currently they support and maintain an air
monitoring network, the Latrobe Valley Air Monitoring Network (LVAMN), the
Saline Water Outfall Pipeline (SWOP), and collectively report their response
to the national Pollutant Inventory (NPI) Most companies are members of the
Greenhouse Challenge and collectively report via the Latrobe Valley
Taskforce.
