How we’ll implement our Strategic Plan
Performance measurement
Budget Paper 3 (BP3) provides an overview of the priority goods and services funded by the Victorian Government and delivered by departments and agencies to support the government’s strategic objectives. EPA’s performance is reported against the measures and targets in the BP3 service output ‘Statutory Activities and Environment Protection’. To complement these output measures and targets and monitor our progress against the outcomes we want to see in the next five years, we’ve also identified outcome measures and targets. We’ll improve these outcome measures and targets over time.
Working with others
We work collaboratively with others to achieve our purpose and contribute to broader initiatives that improve our communities and environment.
Annual planning and reporting
Industry, business and workers
State and federal governments
Universities and other research institutions
Each financial year, EPA produces an Annual Delivery Plan describing what we plan to deliver that year, aligned to our strategic outcomes and priority initiatives. We publish our Annual Delivery Plan on our website. We report on our performance each financial year in our Annual Report, which is tabled in the Victorian Parliament and published on our website.
Victorian communities
We join with industry, businesses and workers to achieve environmentally safe and sustainable economic growth, and to identify best practice approaches to prevent harm from pollution and waste.
We work with governments to identify emerging issues and provide advice on national standards, policy options, land use planning and major projects to address risks of harm to human health and the environment.
We partner with universities and other research institutions to expand our scientific knowledge base and ensure our regulatory decisions are underpinned by the best available science.
We work with communities so they understand the condition of their local environment by providing information and involving them in citizen science programs. We actively seek information from the community to assist us in targeting illegal activities and value community input into issues of concern and decisions that could impact them.
Local Government
Non-government organisations
Co-regulators
We work with other regulators and enforcement agencies to identify and eliminate risks of harm to communities and the environment, improve our regulatory practice and reduce burden on regulated entities by being more connected and efficient.
We team up with local government to address local environmental and public health issues, including through the Officers for the Protection of the Local Environment (OPLE) program.
We engage with non-government organisations and other interest groups to understand and gain insights about environmental and human health issues to inform our work.
