Completion of this application form is required:
when an existing lease or licence exists on Crown land AND the lessee/licensee is required to seek the consent of the Minister for Climate, Environment and Water (the Minister), as the landowner, to undertake works or development on Crown land OR
when a custodian is required to seek the consent of the Minister, as the landowner, to undertake development on dedicated Crown land.
Please
email
the Crown Lands Program or phone 8429 7680 if you are seeking to undertake works on Crown land that is not leased, licensed or dedicated.
Please complete the relevant form available on the
DEW Crown Lands web page if you are seeking consent for works or development in a National Park.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Prior to starting any works on Crown land or applying for development authorisation under the
Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016 (Development Authorisation), a Lessee/Licensee must at their own expense:
submit to the Minister a Works Plan, which takes into account the requirements (if any) set out in lease or licence agreement;
obtain written approval of the Works Plan
obtain approvals from any other regulatory authorities including those required under the
Planning, Development and Infrastructure Act 2016
Failure to seek the Minister’s written approval prior to undertaking any works on Crown land is a breach of the lease/licence conditions and could possibly be determined to be an offence and be prosecutable in accordance with the
Crown Land Management Act 2009.
Any changes to the proposed works that influence the initial authorisation and are necessary as a condition of a Development Authorisation must be re-submitted to the Minister for reconsideration. For further information refer to the
DEW Crown Lands web page.
