Details

Holders of installation, waste operation or radioactive substances activity permits must operate in accordance with the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016.

We normally expect all permit holders to comply in full with all the conditions in their permits. This includes conditions requiring them to submit data and reports to us. For example, this could be monitoring results or reports required by improvement conditions.

If you follow the conditions in this COVID-19 regulatory position statement (RPS), you may delay sending us certain data, reports and other records that are required by your permit.

This COVID-19 RPS only applies if you cannot comply with the reporting deadlines specified in your permit due to coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions.

You must tell the Environment Agency before you use this COVID-19 RPS.
