Details

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to get an environmental permit when you collect and store mixed fuel from misfuelled vehicles.

However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action when you do this without an environmental permit for a waste operation if you comply with the requirements in this RPS.

This enforcement position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
