Licence Explanatory Notes – Do Not Form Part of the Licence

Compliance with this licenceThe EPA seeks to ensure that all reasonable and practicable measures are taken to protect, restore and enhance the quality of the environment according to the principles of ecologically sustainable development. To achieve this objective, the EPA uses a number of regulatory decision making principles and actions outlined in the ‘Compliance and enforcement regulatory options and tools’ document available on the EPA website.

Notification – serious or material environmental harm caused or threatenedIf serious or material environmental harm from pollution is caused or threatened in the course of an activity, the licence holder must, as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of the harm or threatened harm, notify the EPA (preferably on EPA emergency phone number 1800 100 833) of the harm or threatened harm, its nature, the circumstances in which it occurred and the action taken to deal with it in accordance with section 83 of the Environment Protection Act 1993 (the Act). In the event that the primary emergency phone number is out of order, the licence holder should phone (08) 8204 2004.

Variations, transfers and surrender of a licenceThe EPA may impose or vary the conditions of a licence by notice in writing to the licence holder in accordance with sections 45 and 46 of the Act. Public notice may be required where the variation of licence conditions results in a relaxation of the requirements imposed for the protection or restoration of the environment and results in an adverse effect on any adjoining land or its amenity.

If a licence holder wishes to vary the conditions of a licence, transfer a licence to another entity, or surrender a licence, the licence holder must submit an application to the EPA in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Act (sections 45, 49 and 56, respectively). A licence remains in effect and in its original form until such time as any proposed variation, application for surrender, or transfer has been made and approved in writing by the EPA.

Suspension or cancellation of a licenceThe EPA may suspend or cancel a licence by notice in writing to the licence holder in accordance with section 55 of the Act if satisfied the licence holder has either obtained the licence improperly, contravened a requirement under the Act or if the holder is a body corporate, a director of the body corporate has been guilty of misconduct of a prescribed kind (whether in this State or elsewhere).

Responsibilities under Environment Protection legislationIn addition to the conditions of any licence, a licence holder must comply with their obligations under all State and Federal legislation (as amended from time to time) including: the Environment Protection Act 1993; the Environment Protection Regulations 2009; all Environment Protection Policies made under the Environment Protection Act 1993; and any National Environment Protection Measures not operating as an Environment Protection Policy under the Environment Protection Act 1993

Public Register InformationThe EPA maintains and makes available a Public Register of details related to its determinations and other information it considers appropriate (i.e. excluding trade processes or financial information) in accordance with section 109 of the Act. These details include, but are not limited to:

licensing and beverage container applications and approvals enforcement actions site contamination serious or material environmental harm caused or threatened in the course of an activity environment improvement programmes and environment performance agreements environment assessment reports; results of testing, monitoring or evaluation required by a licence EPA advice or direction regarding development approvals referred to the EPA by a planning authority

CT5128/921CT5219/61CT5179/697

ASBESTOS WASTE: means waste Asbestos-Containing Material (ACM) including all removed ACM, as well as disposable items used during asbestos removal work, such as plastic sheeting and disposable coveralls, respirators and cleaning rags.

ASBESTOS-IMPACTED WASTE SOIL: means waste soil that has been classified in accordance with Waste Fill, Intermediate Waste Soil or Low Level Contaminated Waste that contains inclusions of friable or non-friable asbestos.

AUTHORISATION FEE PAYMENT DATE: means the anniversary of the grant or renewal of this authorisation.

COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL WASTE (GENERAL): means the solid component of the waste stream arising from commercial, industrial, government, public or domestic premises (not collected as Municipal Solid Waste), but does not contain Listed Waste, Hazardous Waste or Radioactive Waste.

public or domestic premises (not collected as Municipal Solid Waste), that contains or

consists of Listed Waste.

COMPOSTABLE ORGANIC WASTE: The biodegradable component of the waste stream that is of biological origin but does not contain any Listed Waste, Radioactive Waste or Hazardous Waste.

Notes: These organic materials may be processed through composting works to formulate valuable recycled organic products.

Suitability of compostable organic waste as a feedstock is dependent on the location, site design, processes and potential to cause environmental harm.

CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE (INERT): means the solid inert component of the waste stream arising from the construction, demolition or refurbishment of buildings or infrastructure but does not contain Municipal Solid Waste, Commercial and Industrial Waste (General), Listed Waste, Hazardous Waste or Radioactive Waste. NOTES. C&D waste (Inert) should be such that the entire composition of the C&D materials is Inert Waste with no contamination by foreign material. As such it is acknowledged that, with the aim of no contamination, there may be some negligible components of foreign material contained in the waste (as a guide, 0 to 5% maximum by volume per load). C&D waste (Inert) includes bricks, concrete, tiles and ceramics, steel and inert soils. Foreign material includes green waste, plastics, electrical wiring, timber, paper, insulation, tins, packaging and other waste associated with construction or demolition of a building or other infrastructure.

Foreign material includes green waste, plastics, electrical wiring, timber, paper, insulation, tins, packaging and other waste associated with construction or demolition of a building or other infrastructure. Foreign material must not be Municipal Solid Waste, Liquid, Listed, Hazardous or Radioactive Waste.
