(Section 44 of the Contaminated Land Management Act 1997)

Notice Number 20204418; Area Number 3221

Background

The land to which this notice applies, together with other lands, was declared as significantly contaminated land (Declaration No. 21122) and has been the subject of a Management Order (Order No. 20151402, as amended by Notice Nos. 20164404, 20184403, 20194418 and 20194430) issued by the Environment Protection Authority (EPA). 

The Management Order directed the recipient of the order, Barangaroo Delivery Authority/Infrastructure NSW, to carry out contamination management.  The Management Order has been completed and the results have been made available to the EPA.

Repeal/Amendment

Having reviewed the results of the management, the EPA is satisfied that it no longer has reason to believe that contamination of the land to which this notice applies is significant enough to warrant regulation under the Contaminated Land Management Act 1997 (CLM Act).

Pursuant to section 44 of the CLM Act, Declaration of Significantly Contaminated Land No. 21122, dated 6 May 2009, and Management Order No. 20151402, dated 16 December 2015, cease to be in force on the date on which this notice is signed.
