, the following provisions apply in the case of the cessation of a prescribed activity of environmental significance carried on pursuant to a licence:
(a) if—
(i) the licence has been renewed under section 3(6) of the Act or is subject to conditions under section 52A or 56(2)(b) of the Act; and
(ii) the activity ceased before the commencement of the current licence period,
no environment management component or flat fee component is payable for that period;
(b) in the case of an activity for which the amount of the environment management component does not depend on an indicator of the level of activity during the licence period—
(i) if the licence is subject to conditions under section 52A or 56(2)(b) of the Act and the holder of the licence satisfies the Authority that the activity is to cease during the current licence period, a pro rata adjustment is to be made to the amount of the environment management component for that period by applying the proportion that the number of months in that period before the activity is to cease bears to 12 months; and
(ii) if conditions are imposed on the licence under section 52A or 56(2)(b) of the Act during the current licence period and the activity ceases during that period, the Authority must, no later than the end of that period, refund to the holder of the licence a proportion of the environment management component for that period, being the proportion that the number of months remaining in that period after the cessation of the activity or the imposition of the conditions (whichever is the later) bears to 12 months; and
(iii) for the purposes of this paragraph, a part of a month is to be counted as a full month.
