You can now manage your EPA radiation user licence online
If you’re one of 14,500 professionals in NSW who operate radiation equipment, including dentists, GPs, scientists and vets, you can now renew and manage your licence online through the EPA’s eConnect portal.
The portal, which launched last year for other licences, is also available if you are applying for a Radiation User Licence for the first time.
EPA Director Hazardous Materials, Chemicals and Radiation Asela Atapattu said that the EPA was responding to feedback.
“We know that time and efficiency are some of the most valuable things for a business,” Mr Atapattu said.
“We’re really pleased to be rolling out this service so that our licensees can manage their EPA activities more conveniently, at a time, place and on a device of their choosing.
“If you’re one of the thousands of dentists, GPs, nurses, scientists, vets or lecturers who require a radiation licence for your work, using eConnect will significantly reduce the amount of time and paper involved for you to meet your obligations.”
Annual reporting required from Environment Protection Licence holders as well as new licence applications can already be submitted through this service. The EPA will continue to roll out eConnect to more licensees in the coming months. More information about Radiation User Licences is available at the EPA website.
eConnect EPA can be accessed via the EPA website. Feedback on eConnect EPA will be vital in continuously improving the service and can be shared by emailing eConnect.EPA@epa.nsw.gov.au.
