There have been recent problems with the hours of operation of the site.

These have been discussed with the contractor and confirmed in writing, as required under the contract.

The situation is being monitored and further action as provided under the contract depends on the contractor's performance.

The site has been security fenced to keep people off the site outside normal operating hours.

There have been problems with people, including children, illegally accessing the site, and these persons run the risk of possible injury.

The contractor is required to hold public risk insurance and to keep the ACT Government indemnified against all claims.

The contractor is required to accept all unwanted vehicle bodies delivered to the site and can also accept other ferrous metals for the purpose of recycling.

As the contractor is paying the ACT Government for the rights under the contract, it is unlikely that any item of commercial value would be rejected or disposed of to the tip.

The variety of ferrous metal items in the yard at Fyshwick indicates that the public is making good use of the facility.
