Queensland Contaminated Land Site Investigation or Management Record

Unpublished contaminated land records under the Environmental Protection Act 1994 (Qld) chapter 7 part 8: site investigation reports and validation reports (s 381), site management plans (s 383), site suitability statements, auditor reports, and working papers about land on the environmental management register (EMR, s 371 - a notifiable activity has been carried out, or the land is contaminated) or the contaminated land register (CLR, s 372). Notifiable activities include Schedule 3 item 8 (operating a coal fired power station) and item 13 (manufacturing, repairing or disposing of electrical transformers). The target is a document for a real site with filled lot on plan / site / contaminant fields and sampling or laboratory content, such as soil and groundwater results in mg/kg or ug/L. Bare EMR/CLR search extracts are fee-based public records (s 542) and are deliberately held at discovery unless they carry investigation content.

Type: regex
Engine: boost_regex
Confidence: medium
Confidence justification: Medium: the register and report names are statutory and appear in the Act, DETSI guidance and every public search result, so they are discovery-only alone. Enforcement needs populated site fields plus sampling or laboratory content, which guidance and bare register extracts lack. Guidance tables of investigation levels can carry contaminant-plus-concentration rows, so a guidance document that also has filled site fields could reach 75. Lot on plan is matched as a labelled loose value (format unverified), and "contaminated land auditor" is a legacy phrase whose current statutory wording is "auditor" (used only at 65). 85/75 are heuristic evidence tiers, not measured accuracy; test values are synthetic.

Should match

Site investigation report - former Teston Power Station ash handling area Lot on plan: Lot 7 on SP000001 Notifiable activity: Coal fired power station (Schedule 3 item 8) Contaminants of concern: TRH, PAH, arsenic Borehole BH04 at 1.5 m: arsenic 210 mg/kg, benzo(a)pyrene 3.2 mg/kg, both above the HIL D investigation level. Groundwater sampling from MW2 is scheduled for November. — Populated SIR with lot on plan, notifiable activity and soil results above investigation levels (intended 85)
Site management plan (s 383) - Teston Substation transformer yard Site: Teston Substation, Teston Road Contaminant: PCBs from historical transformer oil leaks Soil samples from the bund base show PCBs 14 mg/kg; excavate and validate before the yard is resurfaced. — Site management plan with populated site and contaminant and a PCB result (intended 85)
Site suitability statement draft for auditor review Site address: 40 Depot Street, Teston Consultant: Teston Environmental Pty Ltd Remediation of the former fuel storage area is complete; validation sampling results are pending from the laboratory. — Draft site suitability statement with populated site and consultant plus investigation vocabulary, no result row (intended 75)
Environmental management register - due diligence for sale of Teston Depot Real property description: Lot 3 on RP000002 PFAS detected in groundwater at MW1: PFOS 0.35 ug/L. Recommend a site investigation report before settlement. — Pre-sale due diligence with lot on plan and PFAS groundwater result (intended 75)

Should not match

371 Grounds for including land in environmental management register. The administering authority may include land in the environmental management register if a notifiable activity is being carried out, or has been carried out, on the land. — Act text (legislation decoy, stays at 65)
Environmental management register search response Lot on plan: Lot 12 on SP000003 Notifiable activity: Petroleum product or oil storage The land is recorded on the EMR. Search fee paid. — Bare fee-based EMR search extract (public record, excluded)
Environmental management register listing Lot on plan: Lot 5 on SP000004 Notifiable activity: Petroleum product or oil storage (Schedule 3 item 29) Date recorded: 02/05/2019 — Bare register listing without exclusion wording (no investigation content, stays at 65)
Site investigation report template Lot on plan: __________ Site address: [insert address] Contaminants of concern: __________ Sampling results: attach laboratory certificates. — Blank SIR template
Fact sheet: a site suitability statement must accompany every site investigation report lodged with the department. It states whether the land is suitable for the proposed use. — Guidance fact sheet
Council media release: the old gasworks site has been removed from the contaminated land register after a site management plan was completed. — News / media release

Known false positives

The EP Act, DETSI contaminated land guidelines and fact sheets, and the NEPM (Assessment of Site Contamination). Mitigation: No populated site fields, and legislation and fact sheet markers are excluded, so these stay at 65 or below. Guidance investigation-level tables can match the result-row regex but need filled site fields as well.
Bare EMR/CLR search responses and title notations (fee-based public records under s 542). Mitigation: 75 needs sampling or laboratory content in addition to the lot on plan and notifiable activity lines, and "search fee" / "search response" are excluded. An extract annotated with investigation findings will match.
Construction or event "site management plans" unrelated to contamination. Mitigation: Site management plan is only a primary when a contamination term or s 383 follows within 80 characters.
