587 Licence document to be available
(1) The operator of the major hazard facility must keep the licence document available for inspection under the Act.
Note: Section 12F of the Act provides that strict liability applies to each physical element of each offence under the Act, unless otherwise stated. The reference in section 12F of the Act includes these Regulations.
(2) Subregulation (1) does not apply if the licence document is not in the operator’s possession because:
(a) it has been returned to the regulator under regulation 593; and
(b) the operator has applied for, but has not received, a replacement licence under regulation 594.
