Environmental Permits to Control Emissions

The Pollution Control team are responsible for the regulation of emissions from a number of industrial and commercial processes within the borough. This is achieved by issuing a permit under the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 (as amended).

Who needs a permit?

Operators of specific activities and installations listed within these regulations are legally required to apply for an environmental permit which contains conditions which must be complied with in order to control environmental emissions.

Dependent upon the nature of the business and the activities undertaken, an Environmental Permit will be required either from the Environment Agency ( A1 Installations) or the Local Authority ( A2 and B Installations).

If you are the operator of a potential A2 or B Installation, you can contact the Pollution Control Team for information on the application process at:
