 It’s making it easier for industry and government to lodge, track, and manage applications online with greater efficiency and transparency.

2025 was a year of strong growth

  • Applications received through Environment Online increased from 264 in 2024 to 2,627 in 2025.
  • This includes 64 per cent of Industry Regulation and 72 per cent of EPA applications.
  • Total registered users grew by 119 per cent reaching 2,397, with an average of five new users per day.

These reflect a strong shift towards digital transformation in environmental regulation.

Major releases this year

  • Fees and payments functionality
  • Planning advice referrals
  • Index of surveys for assessments
  • Significant enhancements to Industry Regulation processes.

A big thank you to our teams and partners for driving this progress. We’re excited to keep building on this momentum in 2026 with even more functionality on the way!
