Résumé

This Act amends the Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997. Amendments deal with the Duration and renewal of licences to transport trackable waste. In particular, they apply to licences to carry out any scheduled activity involving the transportation of trackable waste. The duration of these licence is: Once a licence to transport trackable waste enters into force, the licence remains in force for the period specified in the licence, being a period not longer than 5 years, unless it is suspended, revoked or surrendered. The licence is, while it remains in force, subject to any variations made to the licence under this Act. The renewal of these licence is: The holder of a licence to transport trackable waste may apply in writing to the appropriate regulatory authority for the renewal of the licence. An application for renewal of a licence to transport trackable waste must: a) be made in or to the effect of a form approved by the appropriate regulatory authority; b) contain or be accompanied by such information as is required by the appropriate regulatory authority (as indicated in the form or in material accompanying the form); c) be made within the time period prescribed by the regulations; and d) be accompanied by the fee prescribed by the regulations. The appropriate regulatory authority may renew such licence for a period specified in the licence, being a period not longer than 5 years. The appropriate regulatory authority must not refuse an application for renewal unless before doing so: a) it has given notice to the applicant that it intends to do so; b) it has specified in that notice the reasons for its intention to do so; c) it has given the applicant a reasonable opportunity to make submissions in relation to the matter; and d) it has taken into consideration any submission by the applicant.
