State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005

1   Name of Policy
This Policy is State Environmental Planning Policy (Major Projects) 2005.
cl 1: Am 2005 (392), Sch 1 [1].
2   Aims of Policy
The aims of this Policy are as follows:
(a)  to identify development to which the development assessment and approval process under Part 3A of the Act applies,
(b)  to identify any such development that is a critical infrastructure project for the purposes of Part 3A of the Act,
(c)  to facilitate the development, redevelopment or protection of important urban, coastal and regional sites of economic, environmental or social significance to the State so as to facilitate the orderly use, development or conservation of those State significant sites for the benefit of the State,
(d)  to facilitate service delivery outcomes for a range of public services and to provide for the development of major sites for a public purpose or redevelopment of major sites no longer appropriate or suitable for public purposes,
(e)  to rationalise and clarify the provisions making the Minister the approval authority for development and sites of State significance, and to keep those provisions under review so that the approval process is devolved to councils when State planning objectives have been achieved.

3   Definitions and key concepts
(1)  In this Policy:
environmentally sensitive area of State significance means:
(a)  coastal waters of the State, or
(c)  land reserved as an aquatic reserve under the Fisheries Management Act 1994 or as a marine park under the Marine Parks Act 1997, or
(d)  land within a wetland of international significance declared under the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands or within a World heritage area declared under the World Heritage Convention, or

(g)  land, places, buildings or structures listed on the State Heritage Register, or
(h)  land reserved or dedicated under the Crown Lands Act 1989 for the preservation of flora, fauna, geological formations or for other environmental protection purposes, or
(i)  land identified as being critical habitat under the Threatened Species Conservation Act 1995 or Part 7A of the Fisheries Management Act 1994.
the Act means the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979.
(2)  For the purposes of this Policy:
(a)  the capital investment value of development includes all costs necessary to establish and operate the development, including the design and construction of buildings, structures, associated infrastructure and fixed or mobile plant and equipment (but excluding land costs), and
(b)  the employment of people by development means the average number of workers (calculated on a full-time equivalent basis) that will be employed to operate the development in any one year (other than construction workers employed to establish the development).
(3)  Notes included in this Policy do not form part of this Policy.
4   Land to which Policy applies
This Policy applies to the State.
5   Relationship to other environmental planning instruments
Subject to section 74 (1) of the Act, in the event of an inconsistency between this Policy and another environmental planning instrument whether made before or after the commencement of this Policy, this Policy prevails to the extent of the inconsistency.
6   Identification of Part 3A projects
(1)  Development that, in the opinion of the Minister, is development of a kind:
(a)  that is described in Schedule 1 or 2, or
(b)  that is described in Schedule 3 as a project to which Part 3A of the Act applies, or
(c)  to the extent that it is not otherwise described in Schedules 1–3, that is described in Schedule 5,
is declared to be a project to which Part 3A of the Act applies.
(2)  However, any such development does not become a project to which Part 3A of the Act applies by the operation of subclause (1) if:
(a)  the carrying out of that development has been authorised by a consent that is in force under Part 4 of the Act before development of that kind is declared under subclause (1), or
(b)  the continuation of the carrying out of that development would be authorised by section 109 of the Act if it were not a project to which Part 3A of the Act applied, or
(c)  the Act or the regulations under the Act provide that Part 3A of the Act does not apply to the carrying out of that development (or to the determination of a pending development application under Part 4 of the Act with respect to that development).
Notes—
1.  Under section 75B of the Act, development may be declared by a State Environmental Planning Policy or Ministerial Order to be a project to which Part 3A applies.
2.  The Minister is the approving authority for such projects and they are generally excluded from Parts 4 and 5 of the Act.
3.  Section 75R of the Act limits the application of environmental planning instruments in relation to approved projects, but any prohibition on development imposed by any such instrument continues to apply to any project other than a critical infrastructure project.
4.  Schedule 6 to the Act provides that Part 3A of the Act does not apply to the determination of a development application for State significant development that is pending on the commencement of that Part and is not withdrawn by the applicant).

(1)  For the purposes of considering a proposed amendment to Schedule 3, the Minister may initiate an investigation into the proposal by requiring the Director-General to undertake a study or to make arrangements for a study to be undertaken for the purpose of determining:
(a)  whether any development on the site should be declared to be a project to which Part 3A of the Act applies, and
(b)  the appropriate development controls for the site.
(2)  Any such study is to assess:
(a)  the State or regional planning significance of the site, and
(b)  the suitability of the site for any proposed land use taking into consideration environmental, social and economic factors, the principles of ecologically sustainable development and any State or regional planning strategy, and
