Strategic industrial land in Western Australia's Mid West.
The Oakajee Project has been selected by the Western Australian Government as the site for a future deep water port and Strategic Industrial Area (SIA) to service the Mid West region. Further information on the Mid West region can be obtained from the Mid West Development Commission.
The Oakajee Project comprises a 6,400ha area which has the potential to service and support many existing and future industries in the Mid West region, including export-orientated mineral resources such as magnetite iron ore through the future 1,000ha Oakajee Port, and heavy industrial activities in the 1,100ha industrial core.
Along with the industrial core, the Oakajee SIA also includes a buffer (4,000ha) and general industrial areas (196ha) which may be used for activities that do not compromise the proposed uses for the Oakajee Port or industrial core.
The Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation (JTSI) is the lead agency for the development of the Oakajee Project and is currently in discussions with a number of proponents intending to develop rail links from the magnetite resource deposits in the region and develop the initial stages of the Oakajee Port.
The Oakajee Port will be administered by the Geraldton Port Authority and LandCorp will administer the rest of the Oakajee SIA.
The process for land allocation in the heavy industrial core or buffer areas is set out in the Proponent Land Allocation Flowchart.
Proponents intending to locate in the Oakajee SIA will be required to submit a Business Case to JTSI and LandCorp.
Heavy or strategic industrial development may occur in the Oakajee SIA prior to the development of the port. Interested proponents should contact LandCorp for more information.
Dont know if someone has posted this but a bit of info on maybe future plans for the area
