  • Environmental Defenders Office and Environment Protection Authority

    On 27 August 2024, the Environmental Defenders Office (EDO) submitted an assessed disclosure application under the Right to Information Act 2009 (the Act) to the Environment Protection Authority (EPA). It sought environmental management planning information that each Macquarie Harbour salmon farm environmental licence holder was required to submit to the EPA by 24 April 2024.

    The EPA original decision deferred the release of the relevant draft plans pursuant to s17 of the Act. This original decision was upheld on internal review. The EDO sought external review.

    Following early resolution efforts by Ombudsman Tasmania, the EPA issued a fresh decision in relation to the draft plan, finding the draft plan in its entirety was exempt pursuant to s37.

    The Ombudsman determined that the exemptions claimed pursuant to s37 were set aside.
