Details
This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to comply with an environmental permit to store and treat ELVs when you flare gas from LPG tanks as part of the depollution process.
However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with this legal requirement if you meet the requirements in the RPS.
The regulatory position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
