                     Example of significant change for paragraph (j)—
                           The conditions of an environmental authority for a mining
                           activity authorised under a mining lease were imposed on the
                           basis that a particular method for removing contaminants from a
                           waste stream for a relevant mining activity would be used. The
                           mining lease is transferred and the transferee changes the
                           method.
