EC Throsby’s abattoir seeks to double processing capacity to 1,100 cattle daily, expand staff to 445, and operate 24/7, with environmental and traffic upgrades.
EC Throsby’s abattoir in Whittingham, near Singleton, has applied to double its daily cattle processing capacity from 500 to 1,100 head and operate 24/7, part of a $10.5 million upgrade.
The family-owned business, founded by David Throsby and now led by his son Edward, seeks to meet rising domestic and international demand, enhance food security, and overcome a 1993 operating limit.
The expansion would increase staff to 445, with additional traffic from livestock, product, and service vehicles.
Environmental upgrades aim to manage water use, waste, noise, odors, and vegetation impacts, while road improvements are expected to ease traffic concerns.
The Environmental Impact Statement concludes the project aligns with regulations and serves the public interest.
