Port Kembla Copper has set a date to bring down the stack - Friday, September 6.
General manager Ian Wilson said explosives would be used to blow out a wedge at the base on the northern side of the 200-metre structure, causing it to fall in that direction and land entirely within the Port Kembla Copper (PKC) site.
However, he said there would be an exclusion zone of 250 metres around the site on the day.
"There are about 30 houses and 50 commercial and mixed-use premises within the planned exclusion zone in place during the demolition, and we'll be asking those residents to relocate to a nearby reception centre for a few hours while the removal is under way," Mr Wilson said.
Chikarovski backs Port Kembla stack plan
A group called Stack 360 is still investigating ways to turn the structure into something with cultural and tourism value.
The deadline for that is August 12 and Mr Wilson said the demolition was a contingency plan.
If an alternative was discovered, the planned demolition would be suspended.
"PKC take a great interest as to the sustainability of any stack redevelopment project," he said.

A restraining order was granted by a chancery court judge.
The Nineteenth Century Club is a 106-year-old mansion on Union Avenue. A war over whether it should stay or go was waged when its new owners won the building at auction.

The Hancock County commissioners awarded two contracts Tuesday to Hume Supply, Lima, for the demolition of several buildings along North Main Street in Findlay.
Work should begin in the third week of August, and the company said it will take about 45 days to complete.
Hume Supply was by far the lowest bidder on the project. The company bid $33,567 for the demolition of buildings at 115, 117, 119, 121, 123, 125 and 131 N. Main St., and $4,650 for the demolition of a building at 120 N. Main St.
Bids went as high as $128,300 for the demolition of the multiple buildings, and up to $24,950 to tear down 120 N. Main St. In all, 15 bids were received for the work.
Steve Wilson, project manager for the Hancock County Engineer's Office, said money from the county's Moving Ohio Forward Grant will pay for the demolition of all the buildings, except for 120 N. Main St. Money from the county's flood-control fund will paid for the demolition of that building.
Hancock County has nearly $10 million in its flood fund. The money comes from a portion of county sales tax revenue, and $1.8 million paid into the fund by the City of Findlay from income tax collections.
Money from the Moving Ohio Forward Grant came from a settlement with five of the largest mortgage banks in the nation. Facing government lawsuits over alleged foreclosure abuses, fraud and deceptive mortgage practices, the banks agreed to settle. Participating in the settlement are Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, Citibank, Wells Fargo and GMAC/Ally.
A total of $75 million in demolition funds will be distributed among Ohio's 88 counties. The county is eligible for $406,000 from the Moving Ohio Forward Grant.

County OKs demolition contracts
Rumble Academy students run for their buses after their school day in 2011. The buildings possible demolition has been delayed from 2014 to 2015.

PERRY -- Houston County schools will delay the demolition of Rumble Academy until August 2015, school officials decided Tuesday during a retreat.
The aged building, which was slated to be demolished in August 2014, will continue standing for an additional year to give the community a chance to save it.
The building is scheduled to be torn down as part of a school improvement project, a move that sparked controversy throughout the community. A group of residents rallied against the demolition, arguing that the building -- which housed the original Warner Robins High School -- is part of the towns short history and should remain standing.
Im elated that theyre giving us more time to think about this and come up with a plan, said Brian Russ, a Warner Robins High alumnus and participant in the Save Rumble movement.
The group has applied for Rumble to be designated as one of the Places in Peril by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation. The designation would open the door for potential grants and other funding, especially with the delay we have now, Russ said.
Still, school board members voiced concerns about how the 68-year-old building could be used. Previously, school board members have questioned the cost and efficiency of refurbishing and maintaining the old building. The demolition would cost a little more than $1 million.
While he agreed to pushing the demolition date back, school board member Skip Dawkins said a group must be completely committed to a renovation project for it to work. Otherwise, the building must be demolished, he said.
Unless youve got somebody who really wants to get in the middle of it, ... it just becomes a burden that they expect us to bear, which we cant, he said.
