 > There has never been an EPA here

Tasmania certainly does have an environment protection authority.
The Department of the Environment was established by the Environment 
Protection Act 1973 and I probably still have a copy of it somewhere.  
The first director was John Pottinger, an ex-NSW EPA man.  In the 1980s 
the department became a part of the National Parks portfolio and it is 
still active.  There was a mention of the department in the national 
news a few months ago.  Unfortunately people tend to look at Tasmania 
with blinkered eyes.

Have a look at http://www.environment.tas.gov.au/
