Under the Environmental Protection Act 1994, the Department of Environment, Tourism, Science and Innovation is required to maintain public registers containing documentation related to the administration and enforcement of the Act.
The Environmental Authorities Register lists publicly available documents issued under the Act, including environmental authorities for resource activities (such as mining, petroleum, and gas) and prescribed activities. Each environmental authority includes specific conditions ensuring that activities are carried out in an environmentally responsible manner.
Every authority is assigned a unique permit number, though a single authority may cover multiple locations. Created to assist users in identifying the locations described in EA Permits, and to identify which EAs apply to a particular location. Dataset includes permits with status of "Granted", "Granted - Not Effective" or "Suspended" only. The Environmental Authorities Register can be accessed here: https://apps.des.qld.gov.au/public-register/
In this dataset, the “location_type” field indicates how each feature has been derived from Queensland Government spatial datasets, including the Land Parcel and Property Framework, Land Parcel and Property Framework Time-Series, and Mining Permits (current and historic)

Related polygon coverages include spatial data from SIR database: Land Parcel and Property Framework, Land Parcel and Property Framework Time-Series, Mining permits: currentand Mining permits: historic
The environmental authorities spatial dataset requires that the register be separated by each location (lot on plan, mining tenure or address) and environmentally relevant activity (ERA) for each permit reference number. This results in a large number of records, as a unique permit reference number may describe multiple locations and each location may have multiple ERAs. The "site" field from the register is then used to match the register to spatial datasets such as Land parcels and associated addresses from the Digital Cadastre Database (DCDB), Time-aware parcel data to capture historical land parcel information and Mining permits representing both historic and current resource tenure.. This dataset is a derived product which may inherit any attribute or spatial errors from its source datasets.

The data has been sourced from The Environmental Authorities Hub which is a Dynamics application from which users extract reports.
The data is consistent with the supporting information under the provisions of the Environmental Protection Act 1994.
Complete. This map will be updated on a quarterly cycle to ensure updated permits is shown.
