Australia: GPC Welcomes Independent Scientific Report Into Diseased Fish in Gladstone Harbour

Gladstone Ports Corporation (GPC) has welcomed the release of the report from the Independent Scientific Panel, chaired by Dr Ian Poiner.

GPC notes the comments by the chair of the scientific panel Dr Ian Poiner that the independent panel could not find fault with the water quality monitoring programmes undertaken by GPC, DERM and PCIMP, and that the monitoring was of a world class standard.

“We are currently reading through the report and will make a considered response to the report’s findings on Monday,” CEO Leo Zussino said.
