Maritime The Maritime (Offences) Regulations 1998 provide for offences which on summary conviction carry a maximum fine of $3,000 to $5,000 for individuals and $20,000 to $30,000 for a body corporate.

HSNO - Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996 The offence provisions of the HSNO Act that are most relevant to the transport sector are those in section 109(1)(e) to (g) and (j) to (m) of the HSNO Act. However, other provisions may apply in particular circumstances. The offences in section 109(1)(e) to (g) are strict liability (where it is not necessary to prove that the defendant intended to commit the offence, although certain defences apply). The penalties (section 114) range from maximum fines of $5,000 or $50,000 up to a maximum fine of $500,000 or three months’ imprisonment. If the major offences are continuing ones, further fines of up to $5,000 or $50,000 may apply for every day the offence continues. The Court may also require a person convicted of an offence to mitigate or remedy any adverse effects on people or the environment or to pay the costs of doing so. Finally, the Act allows for enforcement officers to impose infringement notices (instant fines), but at the time of writing in August 2008, these were still being developed.
