Fast-track approval approvals process for eligible projects - Preliminary steps for land exchange

24AB: Land exchange information lodged with Department of Conservation

You could also call this:

“Tell the Department of Conservation about land swaps before asking to start your project”

You need to do something before you can apply for a project that involves exchanging land. You have to give some information to the Department of Conservation. This information includes what’s mentioned in clause 17C of Schedule 5. You also need to provide details about the land exchange. If your project is a Part A listed project, you need to give the information required by section 24D(2). If it’s a Part B listed project or an unlisted project, you need to provide the information that was in your referral application. You must do all of this before you can submit your main application for the project.
