A Land Access Agreement is a negotiated contract formed between a resource company and a private landholder relating to the rights over ‘access land’. There are a number of key areas to consider relating to Land Access Agreements including;
- Mandatory conditions for biosecurity and general conduct
- Establishing good relations between the resource company and landholder
- Assessing the level of impact the activities will have on the landholders’ land and business operation
- Assessing the level of compensation for the landholder
