Environmental Permitting

Certain activities and processes which present harm to the environment or human health are subject to additional scrutiny by environmental regulators.

Operating a regulated facility without the required Environmental Permit or in breach of its conditions might lead to operators being required to cease operations or facing prosecution.

Waste Exemptions Are Changing – Are You Prepared?

Following a consultation published by Defra and the Welsh Government in 2018, the Environment Agency and Natural Resource Wales intend to make changes to the existing exemptions listed in the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 (as amended) (known as EPRs). The Environment Agency estimates that approximately 18% of all waste in England is illegally managed and the tightening of the waste exemptions aims to support the Government’s pledge to eliminate waste crime by 2043 and improve the performance of the waste sector.

If you engage in activities regulated through waste exemptions, it is crucial to comprehend the implications of these changes, prepare properly and take appropriate action.
