What it is

EPR Target Carry-Forward & Shortfall Management

EPR target carry-forward and shortfall management addresses situations where you over- or under-fulfilled a prior obligation, applying the carry-forward and remediation mechanisms defined in the rules. It keeps your multi-year position accurate and minimises compensation exposure. We assess your position and structure the correct treatment on the portal.

FAQ

EPR Target Carry-Forward & Shortfall Management — questions we get

Can I carry forward surplus fulfilment?

The rules provide for handling surpluses and shortfalls across periods, subject to the current notification and portal mechanics. Whether surplus is usable depends on those provisions. We confirm the available treatment for your stream.

What happens if I have a shortfall?

A shortfall against your obligation can attract environmental compensation and require remediation. Acting early limits the exposure. We source additional certificates and reconcile your position promptly.

How far back can shortfalls follow me?

Obligations relate to specific financial years, and unresolved shortfalls can persist until remediated under the applicable rules. We review your history to identify any lingering gaps. Then we structure the correct closure on the portal.
