Details of the application
The Environment Agency has received a substantial variation application for an environmental permit under the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016. It is now consulting on the proposed decision.
Applicant name
Angus Fire Limited
Reference number
EPR/XP3832NV/V004
Brief description of activity
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.
