This is a final reminder to mine operators and potential applicants that the following changes will soon take effect:

  • we will stop accepting applications after Friday 30 September 2022 for the assessment process for tier 2 specific location quarries with an inspector on site 
  • from 1 October 2022 the only process for new applicants will be to apply for an all tier 2 quarries certificate by satisfying the qualification and experience gazetted requirements.
