Victoria’s new Environment Protection Act to control pollution into our air, water and land will come into force in 2020. The EPA has released draft regulations for public consultation until 31 October. Regulations are critical to how the Act will work in practice. This seminar helped to understand how the regulations will manage air pollution, water issues, climate, and waste, so that we can make a submission. The session also provided a brief overview of the Act and how the new general environment duty will operate and there were allowed time for audience questions.
