Pollution Processes - Authorisation / Permits
Some industrial processes have the potential to cause pollution. Since 1990 many of these processes have required an 'authorisation' to operate and are inspected annually. For industrial processes that have the potential to cause only air pollution, the local authority is responsible for their inspection and authorisation. The Pollution Prevention Control Act 1999 and the Environmental Permitting (England & Wales) Regulations 2010, require that processes identified in the act, or by regulations made under the act, have to have a permit to operate.
The Pollution Prevention and Control Act 1999 meets the requirements of the European Directive on Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control and covers a wider range of industrial processes using A1, A2 and B classifications. Local authorities regulate A2 and B processes.
Haringey Council is responsible for permitting and inspecting all A2 and Part B processes within the borough and include activities such as vehicle re-spraying, mirror manufacture, unloading of petrol at petrol stations and dry cleaners. Any person operating a process that requires a permit must submit an application, with a fee, to the local authority. The authority will then issue a permit in accordance with government guidance. The operator of the process must comply with the conditions of the permit and they will be subject to inspection to ensure this is the case.
Guidance and information regarding fees and charges has been issued by the government to help both local authorities and industry and is available on Defra's website. You can visit their website via the external links section below.
