Environment Protection Act 1997

The authority must, at least once in every 3 years after the grant of an accredited environmental authorisation, review the accreditation.

After conducting a review, the authority may take action under this section or decide not to do so.

If as a result of the review and after taking into account the matters mentioned in section 61, the authority is of the opinion that the activity conducted under the authorisation should not continue to be an accredited environmental authorisation, the authority must cancel the accredited environmental authorisation.

If the authority takes action under subsection (3), the authorisation is taken (in relation to activities conducted after the date of cancellation) to be a standard environmental authorisation and to have been granted under section 49 for the unexpired period of the former accredited environmental authorisation.
