SITE SELF ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING DATA
Operating under the control of site specific environmental protection licences
Visy's major sites in NSW operate under site specific environmental protection licences issued by the NSW Environmental Protection Agency (NSWEPA). Licence conditions relate to pollution prevention and monitoring, along with cleaner production through recycling and re-use and the implementation of best practice. Some licences require Visy to undertake environmental monitoring to confirm compliance with specified concentration limits and provide feedback to plant operators, the community and the NSWEPA.
Specific reporting requirements of the licence conditions require Visy to report to NSWEPA immediately any major pollution incidents and to report annually on the status of compliance with environmental licence conditions including a summary of all environmental monitoring data required under the licence.
Under the NSW Environmental Legislation, all holders of environment protection licences that undertake environmental monitoring in accordance with Licence conditions must make the monitoring data publicly available through the company website. Licence holders are also required to report on any exceedance of limit conditions and correction logs on incorrect data that may have been published.

Visy Paper Smithfield NSW
