Pollution monitoring

Overview

To minimise environmental impact, the Environment Protection Authority requires holders of Environment Protection Licenses to publicly report pollution monitoring data.

This includes data from Council's landfill and recycling centres, quarry sites, and sewerage treatment plants, which are all holders of these licenses. These sites are tested for pollutants as required by the EPA under specific guidelines for each licence.

Licence holders are also required to have pollution incident response management plans available to the public.
