CNC completes first 18 months of operation

CNC Managing Director Dave Maloney says, “CNC Projects is not just about land-owner negotiations as a lot of people may think. The concept behind it is to be able to take on a lot of the front end planning and project facilitation that engineers and project managers would prefer not to know about, such as permitting, community and government liaison, indigenous issues and, yes, definitely lots of landholder negotiations. It has been an exiting 18 months and I am particularly happy with the diversity of projects and the varying levels of involvement that we have been able to take on with projects such as gas pipelines, water pipelines, powerlines, powerstations, a proposed gas plant and even some offshore work.”

Mr Maloney was awarded an APIA Young Achievement Award at last year’s APIA Convention and is currently chairing a working group to review and update the APIA/VFF guidelines for landowners and industry.
