| Summary Information: | |
The Birregurra - Paaratte Pipeline Indigenous Land Use Agreement (the ILUA) enables the section of a gas transmission pipeline to be built from Birregurra to Paaratte, in south west Victoria.
The native title parties consent to the grant of a permit to own and use the pipeline and a licence to construct and operate the pipeline by the State of Victoria to GPU Gas Net and Transmission Pipelines Australia. This includes all 'leases, easements, licences or other authorities to construct, operate, inspect, maintain or repair' and any 'other titles or permits required' for operations in the pipeline area. The ILUA also covers the necessary 'consents or authorities' for the construction and operation of the 'gathering lines' to the adjoining pipeline sections. These are located from Iona to Paaratte, Paaratte to Fenton Creek and Fenton Creek to Mylor. All of these grants may be re-newed (in line with the relevant legislation).
The parties agree that the right to negotiate provisions of the Native Title Act 1993 (Cth) do not apply to any of the activities covered by the ILUA. |
