### sec.150 Identification of reporting entity
An entity is a reporting entity if—
the chief executive has identified the entity as a reporting entity; and
the chief executive has given the entity an information notice for the decision to identify the entity as a reporting entity; and
any period for the internal or external review of the decision, including any period of appeal, has expired.
Also, an entity is a reporting entity if the entity—
receives, sorts, recycles, treats or disposes of waste above a threshold prescribed under a regulation; and
is part of a sector of entities (a sector of reporting entities ) prescribed under a regulation.
Despite subsection (2) , the chief executive is not stopped from identifying an entity as a reporting entity and giving it an information notice under subsection (1) on the basis that the entity is part of a sector of reporting entities.
The chief executive may identify an entity as a reporting entity only on the basis of 1 or more of the following, having regard to the entity’s activities—
the entity receives, sorts, recycles, treats or disposes of waste above a threshold prescribed under a regulation;
the entity is a reporting entity under subsection (2) .
A regulation for this section may prescribe different thresholds for—
different entities; or
different types of waste; or
entities in different locations in the State.
