00:05.320 --> 00:08.403
(gentle piano music)

00:11.096 --> 00:14.493
- We have combined environmental monitoring teams.

00:14.493 --> 00:16.654
They incorporate both United States

00:16.654 --> 00:19.246
and Australian military personnel.

00:19.246 --> 00:22.636
And we will be conducting environmental monitoring

00:22.636 --> 00:24.886
at key and sensitive areas.

00:25.549 --> 00:28.243
(water gurgling)

00:28.243 --> 00:30.448
- I've been conducting pre-conditioned surveys

00:30.448 --> 00:33.319
of the environment around the training area.

00:33.319 --> 00:35.986
And making sure that our impacts

00:36.267 --> 00:38.434
are minimized and reduced.

00:38.974 --> 00:40.486
It's important this work gets carried out

00:40.486 --> 00:43.569
to ensure that have a detailed record

00:44.006 --> 00:46.236
of the current state of environment.

00:46.236 --> 00:48.634
And to ensure that the exercise activities

00:48.634 --> 00:51.717
don't impact on the environment more.

00:53.518 --> 00:57.267
- We'll have a joint command and control node

00:57.267 --> 01:00.100
at various locations where we have

01:00.307 --> 01:03.091
personnel deployed out to the fields.

01:03.091 --> 01:05.694
At this stage in the execution phases

01:05.694 --> 01:08.467
is we're really working on education

01:08.467 --> 01:11.884
of those that are operating in the area.
