These Regulations amend provisions of the Local Government (Water Pollution) Regulations, 1978, concerning the application of the standard two month period allowed for the determination of license applications for effluent discharges to sewers in circumstances where discharges are made to combined drains declared to be sewers for the purposes of the Local Government (Water Pollution) Acts 1977 and 1992. The Regulations also amend provisions of the Local Government (Water Pollution) Regulations, 1992, on the control of discharges to aquifers in situations where harmful substances are present in discharges, materials being disposed, etc. in such small quantities as to pose no risk to the quality of groundwater.
