Waste Reduction and Recycling Act 2011

This section applies to the operator of—

a levyable waste disposal site in the waste levy zone; or

a levyable waste disposal site in the non-levy zone if at least 600 tonnes of levyable waste generated outside the non-levy zone was received at the site during the preceding 12 months.

Before a landfill cell is used for the first time for disposing of waste to landfill at the site, the operator of the site must, in compliance with the requirements applying for volumetric surveys under section 70—

ensure that a volumetric survey is carried out for the landfill cell; and

before the end of the month immediately following the month in which the volumetric survey is carried out, give the chief executive a copy of the results of the survey in the approved form.

This section applies whether or not waste has previously been disposed of to landfill at the levyable waste disposal site.
