sec.282 Application for registration
An application for registration of a cathodic protection system that is a registrable system must— be made in the approved form; and be accompanied by the fee stated in schedule 9 for the application; and if required by the regulator, be accompanied by— details of the geographical location of the system; and a plan including full particulars of the system; and a certificate from the owner of the system stating the system has been tested as required by this part and complies with the requirements of this part. The certificate mentioned in subsection (1) (c) (iii) must state— the value of the maximum operating current on which the tests were based; and for a system operating with an anode immersed in water or a marine environment—the operating voltage of the system corresponding to the maximum operating current mentioned in paragraph (a) ; and that the owner has complied with the requirements under division 4 for testing of the system before registration. If asked in writing by the regulator, the applicant must give the regulator further relevant information the regulator requires to decide the application. The regulator must decide the application within 60 days after receiving the application. If the regulator refuses to register the system, the regulator must give notice of the refusal to the applicant within 30 days after the day the decision is made. The notice must be accompanied by an information notice for the decision to refuse. If the regulator decides to register the system, the regulator— must impose conditions on the registration about— the permitted maximum operating current of the system; and for a system with an anode immersed in water or a marine environment—the permitted maximum operating voltage of the system; and may impose other conditions on the registration. If the regulator decides to impose conditions on the registration under subsection (7) , other than subsection (7) (a) , the regulator must give the applicant an information notice for the decision. (sec.282-ssec.1) An application for registration of a cathodic protection system that is a registrable system must— be made in the approved form; and be accompanied by the fee stated in schedule 9 for the application; and if required by the regulator, be accompanied by— details of the geographical location of the system; and a plan including full particulars of the system; and a certificate from the owner of the system stating the system has been tested as required by this part and complies with the requirements of this part. (sec.282-ssec.2) The certificate mentioned in subsection (1) (c) (iii) must state— the value of the maximum operating current on which the tests were based; and for a system operating with an anode immersed in water or a marine environment—the operating voltage of the system corresponding to the maximum operating current mentioned in paragraph (a) ; and that the owner has complied with the requirements under division 4 for testing of the system before registration.

(sec.282-ssec.7) If the regulator decides to register the system, the regulator— must impose conditions on the registration about— the permitted maximum operating current of the system; and for a system with an anode immersed in water or a marine environment—the permitted maximum operating voltage of the system; and may impose other conditions on the registration. (sec.282-ssec.8) If the regulator decides to impose conditions on the registration under subsection (7) , other than subsection (7) (a) , the regulator must give the applicant an information notice for the decision.
