              EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM


                              Clause Notes
Clause 1   sets out the purpose of the Bill, which is to amend the
           Environment Protection Act 1970 to increase municipal and
           industrial waste landfill levies.

Clause 2   provides for commencement of the Bill. The provisions of the
           Bill come into operation 1 July 2010.

Clause 3   substitutes Schedule D of the Environment Protection
           Act 1970.
           New Schedule D increases the amount payable as landfill levy
           for each tonne of municipal and industrial waste deposited on
           Schedule C premises and Non-Schedule C premises.
           The increases are in two increments, that is, for waste deposited
           on or after 1 July 2010 and for waste deposited on or after
           1 July 2011.

Clause 4   provides for the automatic repeal of this amending Bill on 1 July
           2011. The repeal of the Bill does not affect in any way the
           continuing operation of the amendments made by the Bill
           (see section 15(1) of the Interpretation of Legislation
           Act 1984).
