BRIEF HISTORY ON ASBESTOS IN THE MACKAY REGION In 1860, an enterprising Irishman John McCrossin selected 20-year-old Scot, John Mackay, to lead an expedition to seek pastoral opportunities and they came across the coastal ranges, now known as the Pioneer Valley. Within a few years' sugar became the dominant industry and more recently, the hinterland coal mining developments and the tourist industry have added to Mackay's solid economic base. The prosperity and confidence of the city is reflected in the fine older buildings. Many of the city's historic buildings were lost to devastating fires, to the notorious cyclone on January 1918 and to progress. Over many years as Mackay developed, different suburbs were identified as high and medium asbestos risk suburbs for some building materials that was used contained asbestos. The suburbs we would identify as high risk asbestos suburbs in Mackay are Andergrove, Bucasia, Cremome, East Mackay, Mackay Harbour, North Mackay, Paget, Racecourse, Slade Point, South Mackay and West Mackay. The medium risk asbestos suburbs are Bakers Creek, Beaconsfield, Blacks Beach, Dolphin Heads, Erakala, Foulden, Glenella, Mount Pleasant, Nindaroo, Ooralea, Rural View, Shaol Point. As a general rule of thumb, if your house was built in: • Before the mid-1980s, it is highly likely to have been built with some asbestos containing materials. • Between the mid-1980s and 1990, it is likely to have been built with some asbestos containing materials. • After 1990, it is highly unlikely (but possible) that it was built with any kind of asbestos containing materials.
