1.	The relevant fee  is referred to in this Schedule as the “Pollutant Fee”.

2.	The Pollutant Fee shall equal the assessable load of the pollutant multiplied by the appropriate Pollutant Fee Unit for the particular activity as shown in Table 1 below.

3.	The assessable load for each pollutant shall equal the concentration of the pollutant multiplied by the discharge weight or volume as defined in the authorisation for each activity.  The unit of measure for assessable load is kilograms.

4.	The concentration of the pollutant is the weight in kilograms of pollutant per volume or weight of discharge from the activity.  Concentration and volume or weight of discharge shall be measured as set out in the environmental authorisation granted for the activity.  The concentration for that pollutant is measured.

5.	The Pollutant Fee payable per year shall be:
-	Nil – if the fee shown in Schedule 2 for the activity is greater than or equal to the Pollutant Fee; or
-	The Pollutant Fee less the fee shown in Schedule 2 – if the fee shown in 
 Schedule 2 is less  than the Pollutant Fee.

6.	The fee payable per year for the purposes of clause 2 (12) Schedule 1 of the Act shall be paid in four instalments of three months each.

The commencement date for the instalments shall be:
a)	for the first instalment of the first year of the operation of the authorisation the date of grant of the authorisation;
b)	for the second, third and fourth instalments each year shall be three months, six months and nine months respectively after the commencement date for the first instalment.

The instalment finish date shall be the day after the day three months from the instalment commencement date.
