Feedback opportunity
Have your say on our Biosolids Regulatory Review
In asking for your feedback on a new approach to regulate biosolids we have an online survey. Biosolids are an important part of the circular economy with approximately 50% produced in NSW applied in agricultural land use.
Since the last rules were designed, our understanding and experience of how to use biosolids has increased. We have reviewed the rules to ensure our regulation remains protective of human health and the environment. Have your say on the Biosolids Regulatory Review Issues Paper.
Keep your eye on the Your Say page for upcoming consultations.
