26 Development consent process The process depends on the type of development Mines typically fall within one of two types: o State Significant Development o Designated Development
27 Development consent process State significant development Director-General issues Environmental Assessment Requirements Proponent consults with local council, government agencies and the community in preparing an EIS Proponent lodges the Application and EIS Department exhibits the Application and EIS for minimum of 30 days
28 Development consent process State significant development (continued) Submissions Proponent receives submissions (may lodge a response) Department finalises assessment and consults local council and agencies on draft conditions of consent (if any) Minister (or PAC) makes the decision
29 Finding out about State significant development
30 Planning Assessment Commission (PAC) Planning body. Consists of a Chair and between 3 and 8 members appointed by the Minister for Planning. The PAC can help the Minister review a project or can be delegated approval functions.

33 Matters to be considered by decision-maker Any environmental planning instrument (such as a LEP). The likely impacts of the development, including environmental impacts on both the natural and built environments, and social and economic impacts in the locality. The suitability of the site for the development. Public submissions. The public interest.
34 Other environmental approvals Generally, other environmental approvals are either not needed or MUST be granted consistently with the development consent where development is SSD EPLs Exception: Water access licences Aquifer interference approval
35 Aquifer Interference Policy Applies to the whole State. Clarifies that all water take needs to be accounted for and licenced. Sets out how potential impacts to aquifers should be assessed (minimal impacts). Ensures that these impacts are considered upfront as part of the assessment process for mining and CSG proposals either: Through the Gateway Process (in regions where SRLUPs apply); or At the development assessment stage.
36 Aquifer Interference Policy - Assessing aquifer impacts Office of Water scientific assessment of the project against minimal impact considerations Minister for Primary Industries provides advice on aquifer impacts during the development This advice is made public and must be taken into account by the consent authority
37 Application of local zones SSD cannot be approved where such development is wholly prohibited in the zone. Consent can be granted where the development is only partially prohibited. Spot re-zonings to facilitate development where prohibited in the zone.

43 ACCESS ARRANGEMENTS AND LANDHOLDERS RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
44 ACCESS ARRANGEMENTS
45 Access arrangements Required for exploration only not required at mining stage. Access arrangement must be in place before exploration can commence. Landholder can negotiate access arrangement with company, but this is not compulsory. Company can take landholder to arbitration if no agreement can be reached within 28 days.
46 Access arrangements - Process Company serves notice of intention to negotiate an access arrangement on landholder Company provides landholder with standard access arrangement Landholder and company may negotiate an access arrangement If no arrangement within 28 days the company can seek arbitration
47 New template for mining access arrangements ov.au/landholderinformation/template-forland-access Not compulsory
48
49 Arbitration Arbitrator will attempt to get the parties to agree (conciliated agreement). If no agreement, Arbitrator can make a determination (interim), including draft access arrangement. Either party can ask the arbitrator to make changes to the interim determination (within 14 days). Arbitrator then makes a final determination and this is served on the parties. Either party can appeal to the LEC within 14 days.
50 Access arrangements matters to be covered Access routes and mining sites Permitted activities Notice of access Times of access Logbooks for entering and leaving the property OH&S provisions Indemnity Insurances
51 Access arrangements matters to be covered Environmental protection Rehabilitation Legal costs Dispute resolution The duration of the arrangement The manner of varying the arrangement (including termination) Compensation to be paid
52 Access arrangements tips for negotiating Don t sign without seeking legal advice first. Make the arrangement as detailed as possible. Consider whether you want the arrangement to apply to any future mining activities. Come up with your own comprehensive access arrangements. Speak to your neighbours agree on standard terms. Check for confidentiality provisions do you want to be able to speak to your neighbours and others about your agreement?
53 LANDHOLDER RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
54 Landholder rights enforce the company s legal obligations If the company breaches the access arrangement, you can deny access until the breach is fixed. If the company breaches conditions of consent, you can report to the Division of Resources and/or take legal action yourself. If the company exceeds their authority, they may be guilty of trespass and you can seek an injunction to prevent this. If the company causes unauthorised environmental damage you can report the incident to the Office of Environment and Heritage or EPA or commence enforcement action yourself.
55 Compensation Landholders are entitled to compensation for compensable loss caused by mineral exploration or mining activities Compensation only available where the operations affect the surface of land. This includes crops, trees, grasses or other vegetation. You can come to an agreement as to compensation or have the compensation assessed by the Land and Environment Court. Image: Martin Howard
56 Selling your land No legal obligation for mining company to purchase your property May be a condition of consent for the mining company to offer to purchase your property if certain thresholds are reached (noise, dust etc.) The company has to pay you the current market value of the land.
57 Monitoring and enforcing mining or development consent conditions Conditions of consent are legally binding. Management plans such as vegetation management plans often form part of the consent and are legally binding. Breaches should be reported to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure. If Minister fails to act, you can bring third party enforcement action. Pollution licences and water licences are also enforceable.
58 Landholder obligations Must grant access in accordance with access arrangement Be aware of legal and financial consequences of denying lawful access If conditions of access arrangement breached access may be able to be lawfully obstructed
