The proponent should confirm the requirement for hard copies prior to lodgement. The Proponent should consider the file size, the number of files, format and style of the document appropriate for publication on the NT EPA website. The capacity of the website to store data and display the material may have some bearing on how the documents are constructed. The Proponent is to advertise that the draft EIS is available for review and comment, in the NT News. At a minimum, the advertisement should be published in the Saturday edition of the NT News at the commencement of the public exhibition period. The following information should be published in the advertisement: a brief summary of the Project and the environmental assessment process clear notice that the draft EIS is available for public comment and for how long the locations the draft EIS will be available for viewing the method and contact details for interested groups or persons wishing to make comment, including an address (postal and electronic) to which interested persons may send or deliver their written comments. The NT EPA requires the complete draft EIS document and a draft of the advertisement at least one week prior to advertising the draft EIS, to arrange web upload of the document, and review and comment on advertising text. 8.5 Public exhibition The public exhibition period for the draft EIS will be six (6) weeks. The exhibition period should not occur in late December or January in any year to ensure optimal opportunity for public and Government viewing of the EIS document. The NT EPA will direct the Proponent to extend the EIS exhibition period if the EIS exhibition overlaps the late December or January periods.
