The Environment Agency is consulting on “Small clinical waste treatment units: standard rules and risk assessment”

We, the Environment Agency, have developed a new standard rules permit for small clinical waste treatment units. We are asking for your views on these rules and our identification of the risks associated with this activity.

This is the ninth consultation on sets of standard rules and associated risk assessments.

It is obviously important that all of those who might be affected by these proposals, either directly or indirectly, review the documentation and submit their responses, whether positive or negative.

Who knows, they might actually take heed of those comments. Just don’t bank on it!
