Environmental Protection Act 1994

This section applies for a site-specific application.

The administering authority must decide that the application—

be approved subject to conditions; or

be refused.

If there is a proposed PRC plan for the application, before making a decision under subsection (2), the administering authority must decide—

to approve the proposed PRCP schedule for the plan, with or without conditions or amendment; or

to refuse the proposed PRCP schedule.

The administering authority may approve the proposed PRCP schedule with amendment only to the extent the amendment is necessary to enable the administering authority to approve the schedule under section 176A(2) and (3).

If the administering authority refuses the proposed PRCP schedule, the administering authority must also refuse the application under subsection (2).
