The EPBC Act (1999) requires approval from the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities for all actions likely to have a significant impact on matters of National Environmental Significance (NES).
The Act provides that actions:
• taken on Commonwealth land which are likely to have a significant impact on the environment will require the approval of the Minister
• taken outside Commonwealth land which are likely to have a significant impact on the environment on Commonwealth land, will require the approval by the Minister
• taken by the Australian Government or its agencies which are likely to have a significant impact on the environment anywhere will require approval by the Minister.
The definition of ‘environment’ in the EPBC Act (1999) includes the cultural heritage values of places.
