Can I Hire Truck Fill Points and Sprinkler Systems for Dust Control?
Yes. Aquaflo Hire’s fleet includes truck fill points, sprinkler systems, evaporation fans and ancillary items for dust suppression at mines and quarries anywhere in Australia. With the NSW EPA providing clearer guidance on fugitive dust and Qld’s Environment department taking a stronger stance on dust suppression, hire becomes an important part of the equation – providing fast access to proven solutions.
What Has Changed in Dust Control Guidance?
The NSW EPA has updated its Approved Methods for the Modelling and Assessment of Air Pollutants. The update introduces clear triggers for when additional controls are needed, simplified assessment pathways for low-risk sites and specific guidance on fugitive dust from sites like mines and quarries. It encourages the use of site-specific data in modelling, with updated methods applying to all relevant new developments and modifications to existing sites across NSW.
Qld’s mines are bound to the current Workplace Exposure Standards, however a significant operational overhaul happens on December 1, 2026, as Australia transitions to the Workplace Exposure Limits framework. Dust is categorised as a principal hazard in Qld with coal operators required to provide quarterly aggregated dust data sheets to RSHQ.
