2.6              Legislation Requirements
Environmental Management is subject to statutory control through various legislations and
associated regulations. Statutory control is also evidence in the various approvals, licences and
permits that may be necessary for the commencement and control of certain facets of the work.

This legislation includes:

Development Approval           The works will occur under a Development Approval issued by
                               Council. McNab controls measures outline these conditions.

Environmental Protection Act (Q) 1994
                              (The Act), imposes a general environmental duty (s319) on any
                              person engaged in an activity that has the potential to cause
                              environmental harm. The duty requires:
                              take all reasonable care and practical measure to prevent or
                              minimise environmental harm.
                              The Act also imposes a duty to notify (s320) upon any person who
                              becomes aware that their activities or the activities of somebody
                              working with them (including subcontractors) has caused or
                              threatens to cause environmental harm that is not trivial. The duty
                              to notify requires the individual to inform the regulator. All reports
                              will be made through the HSEQ Manager who will review the
                              internal incidents reports and decide whether they are trivial or not.
