Telecommunications (Low‑impact Facilities) Determination 2018
I, MITCH FIFIELD, Minister for Communications, make the following Determination.
MITCH FIFIELD
Minister for Communications
This Determination is the Telecommunications (Low-impact Facilities) Determination 2018.
This Determination commences on the day after it is registered on the Federal Register of Legislation.
This Determination is made under subclause 6(3) of Schedule 3 to the Telecommunications Act 1997 and subsection 33(3) of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901.
1.4 Repeal
The Telecommunications (Low-impact Facilities) Determination 1997 in force immediately before this Determination commences is repealed.
Background to determination Part 1 of Schedule 3 to the Telecommunications Act 1997 authorises a carrier to enter on land and install a facility if the facility is a low-impact facility. Under subsections 6 (3) of Part 1, the Minister may, by written instrument, determine that a specified facility is a low-impact facility. Under subsections 6 (4), (5) and (7), certain facilities cannot be low‑impact facilities:
A facility cannot be a low-impact facility unless it is specified in this determination. Therefore, new mobile telecommunications towers are not low-impact facilities. Also, a facility will be a low-impact facility only if it is installed in particular areas identified in this determination. The areas have an order of importance, based on zoning under State or Territory laws, so that any area only has its “highest” possible zoning. The order of priority is:
One effect of this determination is that a facility in an area of environmental significance cannot be a low-impact facility. Rules for the installation and maintenance of a low-impact facility can be found in Schedule 3 to the Telecommunications Act 1997 and the Telecommunications Code of Practice 2018. |
Simplified outline of determination The determination has 3 Parts. Part 1 is introductory, containing matters such as, commencement, definitions and principal designated use (for the purposes of clarifying the zoning category); Part 2 identifies areas in which a facility may be installed, by reference to zoning arrangements under State and Territory planning laws. Part 3 and the Schedule identify the low-impact facilities. Definitions for words and expressions used in this determination are to be found in section 1.5. |

Note: Areas of environmental significance are identified in accordance with section 2.5 of this Determination, not by reference to planning laws.
The effect of this Determination is that an area may be an area of environmental significance, and also a residential, commercial, industrial or rural area identified by reference to planning laws. However, the area’s status as an area of environmental significance is more important for the identification of low‑impact facilities.
