Abstract

These Regulations amend the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010 so as to remove the requirement to register small discharges of sewage effluent (which are discharges from a sewage treatment plant into surface water and discharges from a septic tank or sewage treatment plant into groundwater), in order to be exempt from the requirement for an environmental permit. They also, among other things: revise to the conditions that must be satisfied in order for small discharges of sewage effluent to be exempt from the need for a permit; clarify which provisions of the principal Regulations apply to England and which apply to Wales.
