Referral - Permit Application Not Required (DWER-117)

The ‘Referral – Permit Application Not required’ dataset is derived from authorisations relating to the Clearing of Native Vegetation under the Environmental Protection Act 1986. Data is captured by the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation and other agencies under delegated authority. Data captured represents the location of land clearing where clearing may be conducted. Data is captured to the accuracy required by the request. The request can be captured directly from within the Clearing Permit System application (freeform shape) using image based maps as a background for simple requests or by importing a shape file when the request is complex.
