Environmental Permitting Regulations - Waste Sites

A waste management licence is a legal document issued under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. A licence authorises the treatment keeping or disposal of waste in or on the land. Once we have issued a licence neither the activities nor the area of land may be changed unless the licence is modified. The Environmental Permitting Regulations regulating waste sites came into force on 6 April 2008. The new regime combines a number of earlier permitting / licensing regimes.
