The development consent authority for Tallawarra power station is Wollongong City Council. The power station licence requirements are determined by the Environmental Protection Authority (now the Department of Environment and Climate Change) and New South Wales Fisheries (now the New South Wales Department of Primary Industries). The planning assessment process for Tallawarra Stage B is carried out by the New South Wales Department of Planning, the consent authority being the Minister for Planning. In both cases, the applications are reviewed by various relevant government agencies and publicly exhibited.
