This publication is the source document for best practice environmental management measures for landfills in Victoria. It takes into account the risk landfills pose to the environment and provides a guide for the measures required to meet legislative objectives. This publication was amended in August 2015 to correct typographical and formatting errors. This version replaces publication 788.2 released in October 2014 which incorporated the minor changes set out in the ‘Variation to the Best Practice Environmental Management – Siting, Design, Operation and Rehabilitation of Landfills (EPA Victoria publication 788)’, as published in the Victorian Government Gazette on 8 October 2014 at www.gazette.vic.gov.au/gazette/Gazettes2014/GG2014S356.pdf
