Environmental Planning Instrument - Land Zoning

This spatial dataset identifies land use zones and the type of land uses that are permitted (with or without consent) or prohibited in each zone on any given land as designated by the relevant NSW environmental planning instrument (EPI) under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. Land use zones are grouped into the following broad categories: BUSINESS (B), ENVIRONMENT (E), INDUSTRIAL (IN), RESIDENTIAL (R), RECREATION (RE), RURAL (RU), SPECIAL (SP) and WATERWAYS (W). The specific EPI which defines the planning requirement is described in the attribute field EPI_Name. The EPI can be viewed on the NSW legislation website: www.legislation.nsw.gov.au
