As heard on episode 48 of the Roundup:
The Victorian Ombudsman has launched an investigation into the Environment Protection Authority’s decisions to approve sites to receive spoil from the West Gate Tunnel Project.
The investigation follows community concern about where tonnes of spoil from the West Gate Tunnel Project will be located and complaints made to the Ombudsman’s office about the project.
Victorian Ombudsman Deborah Glass said the probe would investigate the adequacy of the EPA’s decision-making. The investigation is expected to be completed by the end of 2021. Ms Glass will then report to Parliament and the public on her findings.
