The fee allocated will reflect the project of the highest tier (i.e. if there are two Tier 1 projects and one Tier 2 project, the annual fee will be $1600 as per the Tier 2 fee) .  \nTier 1: Projects involving observational studies only. For example:  \n• Camera traps; BRUVs  \n• Search for animal signs  \n• Call playback  \n• Aerial visual surveys (UAV, helicopter)  \nTier 2: Projects involving low impact work with minor interference of animals. For example:  \n• Fauna surveys (catch and release wildlife surveys) . Includes low impact animal marking (paint, hair clip, PIT tagging, or ear notching) . Does not include more invasive procedures such as:  \n- scute/shell notching, application of ear tags, application of collars/satellite tags.  \n- genetic samples, biopsies, blood samples, or tags requiring surgical placement.  \n• Mist netting and bird banding projects with no other procedures performed.  \n• Aquaculture catch and release projects involving standard catch techniques and external fish identification tags such as dart and T-bar tags (not satellite transmitters) .  \n• Agricultural feeding projects or similar (i.e. weight data only or muster and walk through yards with no procedures involved; non-invasive husbandry related activities) .  \n• Standard beach surveys for nesting turtles (flipper tags/nest data without satellite transmitters) . Tier 3: All other projects (Includes umbrella projects regardless of impact involved) .  \nResubmission fees: additional to annual fees and must be paid at the time (before resubmission review) .  \nAEC Member Service:  \n• AEC member recruitment will follow standard recruitment processes (positions are advertised; members recruited as per the AEC Terms of Reference) .  \n• A member nominated by an organisation is not guaranteed appointment. The AEC will appoint members that best serve the AEC’s activities.  \n• It is expected that the AEC member will attend a minimum of five meetings per year and will give suitable time to committee duties (meeting preparation/participation) . Failure to perform satisfactorily may result in removal of fee waiver or AEC membership termination) .  \nFacility inspections: the requirement for facility inspections is determined by the AEC on project review.  \nThe facility inspection fee is an annual fee (not per inspection if more frequent inspections are required) .  \nPayment of fees: fee payment is not a guarantee of project approval. Fees are calendar year. Invoices will be generated in January and are to be paid within 30 days of receipt.  \nIf a fee is required part-way through the year (i.e. new user, or additional project in excess of three project cap), a pro-rata fee will be calculated.","cbCaiuHiYR1NDjm1","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuHiYR1NDjm1","pdf",200961,"English","# Animal Ethics Committee Service Fee Schedule\n## Fee scope and exemptions\n## Annual fees by project tier\n## Resubmission and AEC member service fees\n## Facility inspection fees (by distance and remote)\n## Payment terms and pro-rata calculation","[{\"question\":\"From when do the CDU AEC service fees apply, and what exemption exists?\",\"answer\":\"The CDU AEC fees apply from 1 January 2026.
