Review of the Memorandum of Understanding between Sydney Water Corporation and the Office of Environment and Heritage

Invitation for public comment on draft revised MoU

Section 35 of the Sydney Water Act 1994 and Sydney Water’s Operating Licence require a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Sydney Water Corporation and the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH). The MoU provides the foundation for a co-operative relationship within the context of each organisation’s statutory and other responsibilities.

The MoU is undergoing a review following the recent review of Sydney Water’s Operating Licence and the formation of OEH.

Submissions are invited on the draft revised MoU (SydneyWaterMoU.pdf, 42KB).
