EPA Remedial Notices

A remedial notice is a written statutory direction that requires, by law, that a notice recipient undertake works or activities as detailed in the notice. For example, the direction may be to conduct a cleanup, stop works, install controls, or change a process or activity. Remedial notices are served to prevent or remedy a range of non-compliance or likely non-compliance with the Environment Protection Act. Remedial notices are not punishment measures like EPA sanctioning tools (such as a licence suspension, injunction or prosecution).

整改通知（Remedial Notice）是一种书面法定指令，依法要求通知接收方开展通知中列明的工作或活动。此类指令可涵盖开展清污作业、停止当前作业、安装防控设施，或变更作业流程与活动内容等要求。整改通知经送达后，旨在防范或纠正一系列违反《环境保护法》（Environment Protection Act）的行为，以及可能发生的违规情形。整改通知并非环境保护局（EPA）处罚类工具（如吊销许可证、禁制令或提起公诉）那样的惩戒性措施。
