13A Applications for transit permits

(1) A person who has one or more transit proposals in relation to hazardous waste may apply to the Minister for a permit to carry out the proposals.

Note: If a transit proposal is in connection with the movement of hazardous waste from one OECD country to another OECD country, a transit permit may not be required for that proposal: see subsection 33G(1).

(2) The application must: (a) be in the form approved by the Minister; and (b) set out, or be accompanied by, such information relating to the proposals as is required by the form. (3) The application may deal with 2 or more transit proposals in relation to hazardous waste only if: (a) the following matters are common to each proposal: (i) the physical and chemical characteristics of the waste; (ii) the route over which the waste is to be transported; (iii) the sender and recipient of the waste; and (b) the proposals constitute a regular pattern; and (c) the proposals will all be carried out within 12 months of each other.
