Details
This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to get an environmental permit for waste and groundwater activities when you use IBAA in:
- building a road sub-base
- building a construction or structural platform
- pipe bedding
However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action when you do this without a permit if you comply with the requirements in this RPS.
This enforcement position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
