Environmental Compliance Services
Environmental Protection Licence (EPL) Compliance
EPL holders face ongoing compliance requirements, from Annual Returns to Pollution Incident Response Management Plan (PIRMP) testing. CFEA can help you stay ahead:
- Identify and manage environmental risks with thorough environmental management reviews and reporting tailored to regulatory standards.
- Independent PIRMP Testing & Reviews – Free up your time with external tests, full compliance reviews, and recommendations.
- Environmental Pollution Risk Assessments – Build robust PIRMPs by identifying credible risks before they arise.
- Annual Returns – Expert preparation for sites of all sizes and complexity.
- EPL Reviews (5-year cycle) – Prepare for EPA licence reviews, avoid costly surprises, and ensure conditions suit your operations.
Non-compliance can increase your Environmental Risk Category and EPL fees. CFEA can help reduce these costs by keeping you compliant and audit-ready.

Navigating NSW’s planning system can be overwhelming. CFEA provides:
