Authorised Processes

Guidelines on applying for a Permit

This regime is known as Local Authority Pollution and Control (LAPPC).  Installations permitted under this regime are known as parts A2 and B installations. 

Use the Application Form if you are sending an application for a 'part B' permit to a Local Authority under the Pollution Prevention and Control (England and Wales) regulations 2000 (as amended) ('the PPC Regulations').

Before you start to fill in the Application Form

Please read the general guidance manual issued by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) relating to Local Authority Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (LA-IPPC) and Local Authority Pollution Prevention and Control (LAPPC). This contains a list of other documents you may need to refer to when you are preparing your application, and explains some of the technical terms used. You will also need to read the relevant sector guidance note, BREF note of Process Guidance note as relevant. 

The Pollution Prevention and Control (England and Wales) Regulations 2000 can be obtained from the Stationary Office, or viewed on the Office of Public Sector Information website.

Which parts of the form to fill in

You should fill in as much of the form as possible. The appropriate fee must be enclosed with the application to enable it to be processed further. When complete return to the Environmental Health team.

Other documents you may need to submit

There are a number of other documents you may need to send us with your application. Each time a request for a document is made in the application form you will need to record a document reference number for the document or documents that you are submitting in the space provided on the form for this purpose. Please also mark the document(s) clearly with this reference number and the application reference number, if you have been given one. If you do not have either of these, please use the name of the installation.

Using continuation sheets

In the case of the questions on the application form itself, please use a continuation sheet if you need extra space; but please indicate clearly on the form that you have done so by stating a document reference number for that continuation sheet. Please also mark the continuation sheet itself clearly with the reference number and the application reference number.

Copies

Please send the original and 3 copies of the form and all supporting material, to assist consultation.
