[Section 17(7) of the Contaminated Land Management Act 1997]
Notice Number 201617-7-03; Area Number 3183
The land to which this notice applies was declared as “significantly contaminated land” (Declaration number 21089) by the Environment Protection Authority (EPA). The land has been the subject of an approved Voluntary Management Proposal (VMP) under the Contaminated Land Management Act 1997 (CLM Act) dated 13 December 2010 (Approval number 20101723) which was amended on 15 August 2012 (Notice Number 20124410).

The proponent has carried out the remedial field trials and monitoring works under the approved VMP to the satisfaction of the EPA. The results of the works have been made available to the EPA.
Having reviewed the results of the works undertaken under the VMP, the EPA is generally satisfied that the terms of the VMP have been largely complied with. Given the above, pursuant to section 17(7) of the CLM Act, this proposal ceases to be an approved VMP.
