EHS Notice - Falcon Update
Parkhurst EHS notice:
Peregrine Falcon fledgling around Parkhurst facility
What is happening?
The sole surviving peregrine falcon chick has fledged (left the nest) and will be moving around the Parkhurst Facility. Her protective parents may swoop if workers go too close to her.
Where is it happening?
Was at K21 C14 this week. This will change in coming days and weeks as she gains flight confidence. She will initially stay on lower structures, more likely around the Deadburn/MHF/stockpile area.
When is it happening?
From December into January pending survival.
How will it affect me?
The falcons may swoop to protect their young if you are in the fledgling’s proximity. She cannot fly very well yet and we want to avoid startling or pressuring her into flying into mobile plant, hoppers, moving machinery e.g. conveyors, etc. Potential of running over her – note she is the only peregrine falcon chick in the wider region.
