Common confusion points
Confusing 'Notice of Application' with simply reporting an incident; they are different stages.
Not clearly defining *what* the desired Order should actually command (e.g., stop polluting, reduce emissions).
Failing to link the pollution issue directly back to the requirements of Section 28A(1) of the Act.
Using this form when a simpler administrative request via the CRO portal would suffice.
