Treating municipal waste by aerobic digestion: RPS 257

HTML

Details

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to get an environmental permit when you aerobically treat mixed municipal waste at the place of production.

However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action when you do this without an environmental permit if you comply with the requirements in this RPS.

This enforcement position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
