Brief description of activity

Fawley refinery installation is situated south-east of Southampton adjacent to Southampton Water. The installation processes crude oil in a refinery. This is an Environment Agency initiated variation and consolidation to implement: * a statutory review of permits in the Refining of Mineral Oil & Gas industry sector * the incorporation of legislative changes following the publication of “Best Available Techniques (BAT) conclusions” for the Refining of Mineral Oil & Gas – published 28 October 2014. We have considered three requests for derogations from the Operator relating to BAT Conclusions 12, 25 and 52. We propose to grant these derogation requests.
