No decisions have been made on this project at this stage.

This is currently open for public comment, and we invite you to submit your comments through the public consultation process.
All major developments in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park are subject to close scrutiny, and subject to a robust assessment process.
This proposal is being assessed by both the Australian and Queensland governments through separate but parallel assessment processes (with 60 and 30 day consultation periods respectively).
When assessing this proposal, the cumulative impact from nearby developments will be considered.
