EOI - Blakebrook Quarry and Asphalt Plant Alternative Operations

⁠⁠⁠Expression of Interest: Alternative Quarry Operation
Lismore City Council is calling for Expressions of Interest for an alternative operation of Blakebrook Quarry and/or its asphalt plant.
Blakebrook Quarry has a licence to extract 600,000 of aggregate per annum until 2039 with an average annual turnover of around $12 million.

Council is now investigating options for the alternative operation of Blakebrook Quarry, as outlined in the quarry's Strategic Action Plan.
Proposals could range from the purchase of more efficient machinery, right through to sale of the business.

Council is seeking creative ideas and proposals to maximise returns from the quarry and reduce Council's risk in operating the business unit.

Expressions of Interest for Blakebrook Quarry close at 2pm on Friday, 11 March.

A non-compulsory pre-tender site inspection will be held at 10am on Monday, 15 February at Blakebrook Quarry. Contractors are to meet at the quarry entrance on Nimbin Road. Interested parties must register with Stephanie Pym or Phil Klepzig on 1300 87 83 87 prior to the site inspection.
