The following notice is published pursuant to Section 95B(2) of the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act).

La Trobe University proposes to develop Stage 3 of a sports and research precinct at La Trobe University Bundoora Campus, Victoria. The project will be established around existing Stages 1 and 2 of the sports precinct. Construction is expected to commence between July and September 2021.

The proposed action is a controlled action under the EPBC Act and is being assessed by preliminary documentation.
