Summary
Dalrymple Bay Coal Terminal Pty Ltd has sought re-authorisation of a queue management system (QMS) designed to address the imbalance between demand for coal loading services at Dalrymple Bay and the capacity of the Goonyella coal chain. The imbalance between demand and capacity of the coal chain caused a substantial queue of ships to form off Dalrymple Bay.
The ACCC has granted authorisation to these arrangements until 31 December 2008 as a transition period to enable a long-term solution to excessive vessel queues to be developed and implemented.
