Duty to ensure that final emissions value is zero or less—infringement notice
82 Duty to ensure that final emissions value is zero or less—infringement notice
Amount to be stated in an infringement notice
Despite subsection 104(2) of the Regulatory Powers Act, if an infringement notice relates to an alleged contravention of the civil penalty provision in section 17 of this Act, the amount to be stated in the notice for the purposes of paragraph 104(1)(f) of the Regulatory Powers Act is half the maximum penalty that a court could impose on the person for that contravention.
Other matters to be stated in an infringement notice
If an infringement notice relates to an alleged contravention of the civil penalty provision in section 17 of this Act that consists of a person’s final emissions value for a year being greater than zero at the start of the final reconciliation day for the year:
subparagraph 104(1)(e)(iii) of the Regulatory Powers Act does not apply in relation to the infringement notice; and
the infringement notice must state the person’s final emissions value for the year at the start of the final reconciliation day for the year.
