This dataset holds information on the EPA's environmental authorisations. Under the Environment Protection Act 1993, the EPA administers three types of authorisations: licences, exemptions and works approvals.

Data reported in the EPA's Annual Report.

Under the Environment Protection Act 1997 (Section 41A), it is a requirement that certain activities that pose environmental risk call for an Environmental Authorisation. Environmental Authorisations are one of the most important regulatory tools available to the EPA, as they set out conditions for activities carrying with them the greatest environmental risk. Each authorisation can be individually tailored for the activity it authorises, and can impose specific conditions on the conduct of the activity.

Summarised data of the number and type of CARES enquiries (Monthly).

The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) Licensed Activities dataset contains the approximate point locations of facilities licensed by the EPA, and activity codes as per Schedule 1 of the Environment Protection Act 1993. This data includes information from the EPA public register index, but might not include the latest information available. See https://www.epa.sa.gov.au Public Register - Licences for a downloadable csv of latest data available. This data should only be used as a guide, please contact the EPA to verify the information.

This dataset contains Decisions and Orders originating from EPAs Office of Administrative Law Judges (OALJ), which is an independent office in the Office of the Administrator of the EPA. The Administrative Law Judges conduct hearings and render decisions in proceedings between the EPA and persons, businesses, government entities, and other organizations which are or are alleged to be regulated under environmental laws. Administrative Law Judges preside in enforcement and permit proceedings in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act. Most enforcement actions initiated by the EPA are for the assessment of civil penalties. The Decisions and Orders are organized into three categories: (1) alphabetical listing by the respondent involved, (2) reverse chronological listing by date, and (3) Decisions and Orders under FIFRA Section 6. This dataset includes Decisions and Orders dating back to 1989 in the Reverse Chronological list, Decisions and Orders dating back to 1997 in the Alphabetical list, and a few Decisions and Orders dating back to 1974 under FIFRA Section 6.

EPA’s operations and achievements throughout 2014–15 in line with the EPA Strategic Plan 2014–17.

Environmental protection agreements are formal agreements under the Environment Protection Act 1997, between the Environment Protection Authority (EPA) and people conducting certain activities that pose environmental risks. Environmental protection agreements allow scope for businesses to manage their environmental performance in partnership with the EPA rather than the EPA acting solely as enforcer.
