SLIP Update
Interest Enquiry - Acid Sulphate Soil Information
Acid sulphate soil information released by the Department of Environment and Conservation is the most recent addition to interest information now available via Interest Enquiry.

Acid sulphate soil can become an environmental hazard when exposed to oxygen through lowering of the water table or excavation. Oxidation results in the production of sulphuric acid.

Providing landowners with easy access to information on the location of acid sulphate soil minimises the risk of disturbing the soil. You can read more here.

We are continuing to work with State and local government agencies to gain access to further interest datasets.

Interest Enquiry - Department of State Development
The Department of State Development is set to subscribe to Interest Enquiry and fund research to develop new interest reports. These new interest reports will support the Department's provision of a free advisory service to international and interstate investors.

Access to interest information early in the development evaluation phase will support improved investment decisions.

Working with the Department of State Development provides us with the opportunity to support the information needs of some of Western Australia’s major industrial projects.
