The Proposal

of material per annum.
The application was referred to the Board of the Environment Protection Authority (the Board) for assessment under the Environmental Management and Pollution Control Act 1994 (EMPCA).
The proponent lodged a Development Application with a supporting Development Proposal and Environmental Management Plan (DPEMP) to
Launceston City Council.
The DPEMP was prepared by the proponent on the basis of the project specific guidelines for preparation of a DPEMP which were provided by
the Board.
