Section 14 pollution incidents reported
Section 14 incident reports are not confirmation of serious pollution events, rather they are notifications of pollution incidents that have potential to be more than trivial or negligible. These reports help keep us informed of all potential incidents across the NT and enable us to organise appropriate responses.
