Contaminated Land Sites in the Shire of Yarra Ranges as listed in the EPA Resiger of priority sites http://www.epa.vic.gov.au/land/docs/PSR-08.pdf
WHAT ARE PRIORITY SITES? Priority Sites are sites for which EPA has issued a Clean-up Notice pursuant to section 62A, or a Pollution Abatement Notice pursuant to section 31A or 31B (relevant to land and/or groundwater) of the Environment Protection Act 1970. Typically these are sites where pollution of land and/or groundwater presents a potential risk to human health or to the environment.
The condition of these sites is not compatible with the current or approved use of the site without active management to reduce the risk to human health and the environment. Such management can include clean-up, monitoring and/or institutional controls.
The Priority Sites Register does not list sites managed by voluntary agreements or sites subject to management by planning controls (eg. sites managed in accordance with section 173 agreement under the Planning and Environment Act 1987). Land purchasers should be aware of these limitations and make their own enquiries.
A site is listed on the Priority Sites Register when EPA issues a Clean-up Notice or a Pollution Abatement Notice (relevant to land and groundwater). A notice is a means by which EPA formalises requirements to manage pollution. Sites are removed from the Priority Sites Register once all conditions of a Notice have been complied with. This is formalised through a Notice of Revocation pursuant to section 60B of the Act.
