Ask the new owners of the Eden chipmill to stop logging native forest and make a full transition to plantation sourced wood 

 


EDEN CHIPMILL SHIPPING ARRIVALS
Check our live monitor to see when woodchip carriers visit the chipmill to load woodchips.
The chipmill wharf is located at the south side of Twofold Bay. This map shows ships moored at the wharf or heading towards the chipmill.  Be careful not to confuse ships with plantation pine carriers which load at the Multi-Purpose wharf adjacent to the chipmill on its west side.     

 
EDEN CHIPMILLSECURITY
How to get there and other useful facts...... As the map shows, the main way into the chipmill is along Edrom Road. Turn off the Princes Highway about 18 kilometres south of Eden town. The chipmill is 17 kms along Edrom Road.

Contact us for advice on the best route and up to date security information.

In June 2002, the chipmill built an electric fenceme heavily fortified so give serious thought to how you approach it.

Don't risk an arrest or being beaten up for nothing!
By sea, select any of the small coves to the east of the wharf for your landing. The headland is steep.

For details of the electric fencing system, check the Gallagher Power Fencing website at: http://www.security.gallagher.com.au/
In 2005, they added a substantial concrete footing under the fence, perhaps to discourage wombats from digging under it.
Be careful. If you enter chipmill grounds without permission you may be breaking the law and may be prosecuted or removed with "reasonable force." South East Fibre Exports used to employ a security officer called Col ("The Angry Ant") Clarke, who was not averse to a bit of biffo. However, the current generation of security guards is more civilised.

In "normal" times, woodchip carriers visit Eden on average about twice per month, berthing at the chipmill wharf. Loading takes approximately 2.5 days. In 2015, there are fewer ships, approx one every 5 weeks.

Offices and boardroom are approximately 100 metres inside from the gatehouse on the left hand side, beyond a small car park. Mobile phone coverage along Edrom Road is patchy, but excellent inside the chipmill itself.

Email Nippon Paper
Although Nippon Paper no longer owns the Eden chipmill, it intends to continue buying woodchips from Eden until the end of 2018 at least.

Select the text of our suggested message and paste it into your e-mail message box
"This message is on behalf of the native forests of south eastern Australia. It is also to support your company's policy of moving away from native forests as a source of fibre for paper manufacture. Nippon Paper has done the right thing by selling SEFE, but it is unacceptable for your company to continue buying native forest woodchips from Eden. Australia has enough plantation hardwood available to substitute for all the native forest woodchips produced at Eden and your company could be showing leadership in the paper industry by using plantation chips."

TIMBER COMMUNITIES AUSTRALIA

The well resourced Timber Communities Australia is the loggers' lobby. It is largely bankrolled by the woodchipping industry. It showed some rare good sense a few years ago when it changed its name from the Forest Protection Society, but has shown very little since.Why would anyone want to visit its website? Well, you can get details of up coming events such as TCA conferences and you can find out what they are saying about us.
