Regulatory assurance statement

The EPA Board is required to provide the Minister for the Environment with an annual Regulatory Assurance Statement. This summarises:

• how successful the EPA has been in reducing risks to human health and preventing the degradation of the NSW environment
• how the level of environmental protection in NSW compares with other Australian jurisdictions
• how well the industries regulated by the EPA are performing in regard to reducing risks to human health and preventing environmental degradation 
• the impact these industries have had on the environment
• how these industries could improve their environmental performance
• how the EPA could improve its own environmental performance.
