Match the approvals a proposal needs with the integrated-development table
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- Take only the approvals the lawyer has listed as required for the proposal. Match each one to a row of the table in section 4.46(1), or mark it as not in that table. The rows are: Coal Mine Subsidence Compensation Act 2017 section 22, approval to alter or erect improvements or to subdivide land in a mine subsidence district; Fisheries Management Act 1994 section 144, an aquaculture permit; section 201, a permit to dredge or reclaim; section 205, a permit to cut, remove, damage or destroy marine vegetation; section 219, a permit to set a net or other material, to construct or alter a dam, floodgate, causeway or weir, or otherwise to create an obstruction; Heritage Act 1977 section 58, approval for an act, matter or thing referred to in section 57(1); Mining Act 1992 sections 63 and 64, grant of a mining lease; National Parks and Wildlife Act 1974 section 90, grant of an Aboriginal heritage impact permit; Petroleum (Onshore) Act 1991 section 16, grant of a production lease; Protection of the Environment Operations Act 1997 sections 43(a), 47 and 55, a licence for scheduled development work; sections 43(b), 48 and 55, a licence for scheduled activities, excluding an activity described as a waste activity and including an activity described as a waste facility; sections 43(d), 55 and 122, a licence to control a non-scheduled activity for water pollution; Roads Act 1993 section 138, consent for a structure or work in, on or over a public road, for digging up or disturbing a public road, for removing or interfering with a structure, work or tree on a public road, for pumping water into a public road, or for connecting a road to a classified road; Rural Fires Act 1997 section 100B, an authorisation for bush fire safety of a subdivision that could lawfully be used for residential or rural residential purposes, or of development for special fire protection purposes; Water Management Act 2000 sections 89, 90 and 91, a water use approval, a water management work approval or an activity approval. Then record as yes, no or unknown: whether the development is State significant development or complying development; for a water-pollution licence for a non-scheduled activity, whether the application says a licence has been or will be sought, or the Environment Protection Authority has notified the consent authority in writing before grant or refusal; for an Aboriginal heritage impact permit, whether an Aboriginal object was known to exist on the land immediately before the application, or the land was an Aboriginal place immediately before the application; for a Roads Act consent, whether the development consent and the Roads Act approval would both be given by the same council; for a Heritage Act approval, whether the approval required is the approval of a council. Do not add an approval the lawyer has not named.
- What the lawyer must review
- The lawyer decides whether the proposal is integrated development under section 4.46 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW). Integrated development is development, other than State significant development or complying development, that needs development consent and one or more of the approvals in the table. Subsections (1A), (2), (3) and (4) take particular licences and approvals back out of that definition. The tool's match is not that decision. The other Acts named in the table were not opened, so the description of each approval is taken only from the table.

| Lawyer | Set the scope, supervise the work closely, verify every part relied on, resolve omissions and exceptions, and approve the exact output. |
Checklist
- Match only approvals the lawyer has named. Do not scan the plans and add one.
- Use the Act and the section number printed in the table. Do not substitute a different section.
- Apply the four carve-outs as questions, not as a conclusion that the development is or is not integrated.
- Do not treat State significant development or complying development as integrated development.
