Alcoa is a principal partner for Perth NRM in the Swan Alcoa Landcare Program (SALP) along with the State Government. We also have a long-standing relationship with Alcoa’s Kwinana Refinery, working on the restoration of Challenger Beach in Cockburn Sound.
Alcoa’s Australian operations represent one of the world’s largest integrated bauxite mining, alumina refining and aluminium smelting systems and add value to Australia’s local, state and national economies at every stage.
Throughout the world, sustainability drives Alcoa to minimise impacts and maximise value.
Since 1998, Alcoa and the State Government (Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions) have contributed funds each year toward the Swan Alcoa Land Partnership, delivered with Perth NRM.
The key objectives of SALP are to restore habitats in our rivers, wetlands, coastal foreshores and in our bush land; to protect and enhance the quality of ground water and surface water in our river systems and wetlands; and to improve ecological linkages across our region.
To date, SALP has delivered over $9M to community groups working on environmental programs in the Swan region.
Alcoa is also an active participant in Perth NRM’s Coastal + Marine program, providing sponsorship, volunteers and stewardship of the Challenger Beach Site adjacent to the Alcoa Kwinana Refinery.
