a facility or proposed facility. NOPSEMA may accept or reject such a nomination. If NOPSEMA accepts the nomination, the nominee may submit a safety case for the facility and NOPSEMA must decide whether to accept the safety case.
      If NOPSEMA accepts the safety case, the nominee must notify NOPSEMA that the nominee will replace the existing operator on a day specified in the notice. NOPSEMA must register the nominee as the operator on that day and must publish the name of the nominee in the register of operators.
      NOPSEMA must also maintain a register of proposed operators and publish details of proposed operators on its website.
      Under Part 3, a person proposing to construct a new production facility or a new GHG facility must submit to NOPSEMA a design notification for the facility. Such facilities include an existing vessel or structure that is to be significantly altered (see subsections 2.4FA(2) and 2.4FB (2)).
      A design notification must be submitted to NOPSEMA before any construction or alteration work is commenced and must include all the details and information required by section 2.4H. NOPSEMA must assess and respond to the design notification. A fee is payable to NOPSEMA for an assessment of a design notification.
      Part 4 provides for the contents of safety cases. Each facility must be covered by a safety case. A safety case includes a description of the facility, the formal safety assessment for the facility and how the safety management system for the facility will be implemented. A safety case is to be submitted to NOPSEMA and NOPSEMA may accept or reject the safety case or accept the safety case subject to conditions or limitations.
      An operator of a facility must submit a revised safety case if there is a change in circumstances or operations. NOPSEMA may also request an operator to submit a revised safety case.
      A safety case must be revised every 5 years.
      In certain circumstances NOPSEMA may withdraw its acceptance of a safety case.
      Under Division 5 of Part 4 NOPSEMA may give an operator an exemption in relation to safety cases.
      Under Part 5 NOPSEMA may require an operator of a facility or proposed facility to provide a validation in respect of the proposed facility or a proposed significant change to an existing facility.
