CURRENT PROJECTS

Mackay Marina Breakwater Repairs

Damage sustained by the marina breakwater as a result of Cyclone Ului in 2010 has been repaired. NQBP is now working on a detailed design for a long term upgrade which will aim to improve the immunity of the breakwater in the event of extreme weather.

On 21 March 2010, Cyclone Ului landed approximately 110 kilometres north of Mackay. The cyclone was Category 3 on landfall and resulted in significant damage to rock breakwater surrounding the port and revetment structures within the port.

To assist with the breakwater repairs, NQBP is leasing the Mt Bassett Quarry to Crushing Industries Australia which has not only assisted with the recent repairs but will also provide long-term resources required for the repairs.

COMM UNITY

NQBP is proud to support its local community in Mackay. Through the Corporate Communities Program, NQBP has demonstrated its commitment by recently providing support to the following local organisations and events.
