You can still apply for approval under another Act for a listed or referred project. If you do this, you might need to withdraw that application if you also apply under this Act for the same activity. You will need to withdraw the other application if the EPA tells you that your application under this Act meets certain requirements, such as those in section 46(2).

You must withdraw the other application within 5 working days of getting the EPA's notice. This rule applies even if you have already applied under another Act. The EPA's notice will tell you that your application under this Act meets the requirements.

You should be aware of the rules around applying under different Acts. If you apply under this Act, you might need to take action on your other applications. The rules are in place to help with the approval process for listed and referred projects.
