Six bills represent the Australian Government's legislative program for setting environmental policies that will permit uranium mining. The bills provide for coordinated research and monitoring activities, leasing of park lands and aboriginal land claims, application of nuclear safeguards, protective measures for health and safety, and enforcement of environmental requirements. Australia's goal is an orderly and responsible development of its sizeable uranium resources, estimated at 20% of the resources of the Eastern Hemisphere. Scientists are making projections of nuclear power generating capacity and enrichment facilities on the basis of the pending legislation.
