 (a) a detailed description of the nature of:

 (i) the activity; or

 (ii) for aggregated waste diversion activities—each sub‑activity in the aggregated waste diversion activity;

 (b) a detailed description of the kind of eligible organic material that will be diverted from landfill by the activity;

 (c) details of the activity area;

 (d) for expansion waste diversion activities and sub‑activities that would otherwise be expansion waste diversion activities—information about the existing activity, or trial waste diversion activity, that is to be expanded and the nature of the expansion;
