Waste Discharge Authorizations

This site describes the process for applying for a waste discharge authorization, typically a permit or approval, including:

  • Instructions on the process;
  • The application forms; and
  • Guides (guidance documents) on how to complete the application forms and related documents.

The Introduction section provides an overview of the process (summarized in the Application Process Flow Sheet), and includes links to each part of the process described.

The Application Forms section provides each part of the application form to be completed by the applicant. It also includes the associated documents for public notification, creating site plans and calculating fees.

The Guidance Documents are three guides intended to help applicants identify the information they need to supply in the forms. The guides also explain the other aspects of the process, such as the consultation report and technical assessment report (if required).
