The application for a tree felling licence for the person named was acknowledged as complete on 7 February 2020.  At that time, it was advertised on my Department’s website, providing the public with 30 days in which to make a submission.  The application has also been referred to prescribed bodies, including National Parks and Wildlife Service, who have up to eight weeks to respond. 

No decision may issue before the referral periods have elapsed.
