Tender Description

⁠⁠⁠In 2014 the Victorian Auditor-General’s Office, as part of a series of audits investigating the regulation and management of waste in Victoria, conducted an audit of the managing and regulating of landfills in Victoria (Managing Landfills).

The audit found that Environment Protection Authority Victoria’s (EPA’s) risk-based approach as a regulator has resulted in significant improvements in the regulation and oversight of landfill performance. However, the audit also made recommendations to address some shortfalls in the implementation of its approach in the regulatory framework.

One of the recommendations was to establish a panel of landfill experts to provide peer review advice on complex landfill proposals, to improve the efficiency and certainty associated with the approval process.

EPA is establishing the Independent Landfill Expert Advisory Panel for EPA to implement this recommendation.
