DALRYMPLE BAY, Australia, Jan. 10 (UPI) -- The coal terminal at Dalrymple Bay, the largest Australia's Queensland state, is running at 70 percent of capacity despite fears flooding would halt production.
Greg Smith of DBCT Management, the firm that operates the terminal, told the Australian Broadcasting Corp Monday he is happy with port performance during the weekend but coal supplies may still run out.
"From the 41 vessels that we have sitting out at the anchor, there are four which are able to load cargoes," he said. "That would seem to be an indication that there are some production issues.
"But if we don't get any deluges in the near future, that will assist the miners in de-watering their mines and getting back to a position where they can replenish their stockpiles."
