Forestry Act 1959

The chief executive may amend or omit a condition of a commercial activity permit, when the permit is renewed—

at the request of the permit holder; or

on the chief executive’s own initiative.

However, the chief executive may amend a condition, subject to section 40C(3)(b), only if the chief executive reasonably considers the amendment is necessary—

to provide for the health or safety of a person or protect a person’s property; or

to minimise risk to, or safeguard the health of, a person because of a fire or natural disaster; or

to provide for the proper management of the area to which the permit relates; or

because the permit holder did not comply with a condition of the existing permit; or

to conserve or protect forest products or other cultural or natural resources of the area to which the permit relates; or

because the chief executive is aware a related permission for the permit has been, or is about to be—

amended to an extent that the permission is no longer consistent with the permit; or

replaced with another permission that is not consistent with the permit; or

suspended or cancelled.
