The Tailings Safety Case - An Example
Original language description
Safety Cases have become desirable for water dam owners to demonstrate that the risks associated with their dams are reduced to as low as reasonable and the dam owner’s duty of care is fulfilled. Additionally, Safety Cases have precedence as a risk control communication tool within other high-risk industries. The Safety Case framework is a valuable tool for risk-informed tailings management that can satisfy the current industry-wide search for a consistent methodology to risk control identification, evaluation, implementation, verification and communication that the risk posed by a tailings facility are As Low As Reasonably Practicable (ALARP). This paper builds on the paper presenting the key elements of a Safety Case for tailings storages (Herza, Coffey and Singh, 2022) and demonstrates the example of a real Safety Case used to demonstrate how risks will be controlled as low as is reasonably practicable for an iron ore tailings storage facility located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.
