Contaminated Land Management Act 1997

Nothing in this Act affects the exercise of any function by the EPA (or another public authority) under any other Act.

However, the exercise of any such function must not be inconsistent with the functions of the EPA (or of the other public authority) under this Act.

If the EPA or another public authority may act under this Act and another Act in relation to the same circumstances, it is not required to act under both Acts.

Nothing in this section prevents the EPA from issuing a clean-up notice or direction in accordance with Part 4.2 of the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 or a prevention notice in accordance with Part 4.3 of that Act.
