2022 has been a busy year so far for the Upper Hunter Mining Dialogue as we get back to “business as usual”. While Covid-19 is very much still around we, along with the Upper Hunter community, are focusing on re-engaging with our community stakeholders on key issues of importance.

The July 2022 edition of ‘The Dialogue’ newsletter provides a roundup of all our recent activities and projects, including:
