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/
