This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to have an environmental permit for a waste operation when regulatory and enforcement bodies store samples of waste for regulation or investigation at locations other than where the samples are tested or analysed.
However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with this legal requirement if you meet the requirements in the RPS.
The regulatory position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
