Chemical Weapons (Prohibition) Regulations 1997

For paragraph 30(2)(b) of the Act, the records to be kept by the operator of a Schedule 2 facility are records of the information mentioned in this regulation.

For each plant comprising, or comprising part of, the facility in a permit year for the facility, the information is:

the chemicals produced in the year; and

the processes in the year involving an amount of a Schedule 2 chemical exceeding the chemical’s Schedule 2 permit threshold; and

the processes in the year involving other chemicals; and

any other main activities in the year; and

if an amount of a Schedule 2 chemical exceeding, in the aggregate, the chemical’s Schedule 2 permit threshold is produced, processed or consumed at the plant in the year—the production capacity of the plant for the chemical; and

whether the plant’s function is dedicated or multi‑purpose.

If more than the Schedule 2 permit threshold of a Schedule 2 chemical is produced, processed or consumed at a plant comprising, or comprising part of, the facility in a permit year for the facility, the information for the chemical is also:

the identity of the chemical, including its Chemical Abstracts Service registry number, if assigned, and its common or trade name (if any); and

the sum of:

the total amount produced, processed or consumed; and

the total amount imported or exported by the operator.

If more than the Schedule 2 permit threshold of a Schedule 2 chemical is produced, processed or consumed at a plant comprising, or comprising part of, the facility in a permit year for the facility, the information is the purposes for which the chemical was produced, processed or consumed, including:

if the chemical was processed or consumed at the facility—a general description of the final product; and

whether the chemical was produced for sale or transfer within Australia, direct export or other use; and

if the chemical was transferred within Australia:

whether it was to be transferred to another industry, a trader or another destination; and

if possible, a general description of the final product; and

if the chemical was to be exported directly—a specification of the destination; and

if the chemical was produced or processed for another use—an identification of that use.
