The Federal Government has granted Blue Mackerel Major Project Status (MPS), as announced by Australia’s Minister for Industry and Innovation, Tim Ayres.
MPS recognises nationally significant projects to Australia’s economy, regional employment and skills. For Blue Mackerel, it officially acknowledges the key role in Australia’s path to net zero.
The project will also receive dedicated support from the Federal Major Projects Facilitation Agency (MPFA). This will help the project navigate the robust environmental and regulatory approvals process.
The Blue Mackerel Project is 10km off the coast of Brataualung and Tatungalung Country between Seaspray and Woodside Beach.
