Have your say: Safer storage of ammonium nitrate

The NSW Government is proposing safety measures that will strengthen the current regulation of ammonium nitrate storage. The measures would provide additional protections for workers and communities near ammonium nitrate storage facilities. Give your feedback on:

  • mandatory separation distances for the storage of ammonium nitrate
  • suitable timeframes for ammonium nitrate storage facilities to implement the separation distances
  • potential community and industry benefits and disadvantages of the proposed changes.

This discussion paper has more details.



You can have your say by taking the quick poll, completing a survey, uploading a submission, or any combination of these, via the ammonium nitrate safety Have Your Say page.



This public consultation is open until 5pm on Thursday, 3 November 2022
