Geocache Description:

You are looking for a 200ml Sistema container hidden not far from a noisy washing & pumping plant.

The cache contains just a log book and a pencil. There is room for small trackables. 

This is the on-shore site of Cockburn Cement Ltd's controversial dredging operations. Shellsand dredged from Cockburn Sound is brought ashore here and washed in preparation for the manufacture of lime and cement at its Munster plant. Water obtained from freshwater bores is used in the washing operation and discharged into the Sound near the end of the jetty. The shellsand slurry is pumped to the manufacturing plant a few kilometres away.
