A Compliance Notice offers the duty holder an opportunity to proactively address potential risks following an observed non-compliance.

An Improvement Notice allows EPA Victoria to compel a duty holder to take action to remedy an identified non-conformance.

A Prohibition Notice is issued to intervene and stop an activity considered likely to cause harm to human health or the environment.

A Notice to Investigate may be issued by EPA Victoria if potential contamination or harm is considered likely to be present (e.g. the land may be contaminated, a pollution incident may have occurred, unlawful dumping of industrial waste, etc.)

An Environmental Action Notice may be issued to a duty holder if contamination is present or suspected to be present. This notice may require action to remediate identified contamination.

A Waste Abatement Notice may be issued to a duty holder to conduct a clean-up of waste unlawfully dumped or stored at a property.
