119 Public notification of revised EIS (1) The territory planning authority may publicly notify a revised EIS as if it were a draft EIS under section 114 if the authority is satisfied (a) the revised EIS is significantly different from the draft EIS; and
(b) public notification of the revised EIS is justified because of the difference. (2) However, there is no minimum period during which representations may be made on a revised EIS. Note Normally the public consultation period for a draft EIS cannot be less than 30 working days (see s 114 (a) (iii)), but this does not apply to a revised EIS. (3) If the territory planning authority publicly notifies a revised EIS, the following provisions apply to the revised EIS as if it were a draft EIS: (a) section 115 (Representations about draft EIS); (b) section 116 (Publication of representations about draft EIS); (c) section 117 (Entity consultation on draft EIS); (d) section 118 (Revision of draft EIS).
