- applications for new clearing permits (including those seeking concurrent assessment using the assessment bilateral agreement after a referral under the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth))
- amendment applications other than those that are purely administrative.
Referrals of proposed clearing and applications to surrender or transfer an existing clearing permit are not available for public comment.
