About the fact sheet
Under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act), an action will require approval from the Australian Minister for the Environment and Water Resources if the action has, will have, or is likely to have, a significant impact on a matter of national environmental significance (NES).
The Department of the Environment and Water Resources has implemented a programme of compliance audits of projects requiring approval under the EPBC Act. The compliance auditing fact sheet contains information about the audit programme.
