Details of the application

The Environment Agency has received an application to vary an environmental permit under the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 involving substantial change to a permit from Angus Fire Limited.

Application number

EPR/XP3832NV/V004

Regulated facility type

Normal variation to permit, EPR/XP3832NV, which permits operation of an S4.7 Part A(1)(a) activity - “Any activity for the manufacture of a chemical which may result in the release of ammonia into the air, other than an activity in which ammonia is only used as a refrigerant”.

Variation is to add an effluent treatment plant for treatment of surface waters containing PFAS.

Note that the current permit has this activity referenced as S4.7 Part A(1)(b) - this is incorrect and should have been updated when references were changed in EPR2016.

Regulated facility address

Bentham Fire Fighting Chemicals
Bentham
Lancaster
LA2 7NA

  • the installation

  • the materials, substances and energy it will use and generate

  • the conditions of its site

  • the source, nature and quantity of its foreseeable emissions and their significant effects on the environment

  • the proposed techniques for preventing, reducing, and monitoring its emissions and preventing and recovering waste
