Guiding Principles
Members of the tenby10 Executive:
Are the CEO’s of the Department of Health (DoH), the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA), the Port Pirie Regional Council (PPRC), and the General Manager of the Port Pirie Smelter (ZPPS).
Acknowledge the current levels of lead in blood (“LIB”) in children under the age of 4 years in Port Pirie represent an environmental and social issue, which must be addressed.
Accept, for the Port Pirie Smelter to have a sustainable future, both the Smelter and the community of Port Pirie must have a positive profile with respect to lead.
Recognise that any one party cannot resolve the LIB issue and it is the responsibility of all members of the tenby10 Executive to work in an aligned way to collectively resolve the issue.
Have established the tenby10 Goal of having at least 95% of children under 4 years of age below 10 µg/dl lead in blood by the end of 2010.
Agree that each member organisation will develop its own respective strategies and action plans in support of the tenby10 Goal.
Will establish a Working Party to develop and implement strategies and action plans to deliver on the tenby10 Goal, will drive this outcome, and closely monitor progress. The Working Party shall include representatives of the DoH (including a representative of the Port Pirie Environmental Health Centre), EPA, PPRC and ZPPS.
Will report progress of the tenby10 Project openly and transparently to the community, Government and other stakeholders.
Agree that ZPPS will hold key accountability for overall Project Management of the tenby10 Project.
