Title

Referrals of Red List Discharges to Sewers (Corporate Entities)

Abstract

As of October 2017 this dataset is no longer updated. This record is for Approval for Access product AfA056. The Referrals of Red List Discharges to Sewers dataset (extracted from IPCIS) records those companies (and potentially individuals) who have applied to water undertakers for permission to discharge a Red List substance into sewers. The Water Industry Act 1991 (as amended) section 120 (Applications for the discharge of special category effluent) directs sewerage undertakers who have received a notice containing an application for consent to discharge trade effluent from a trade premise into a public sewer (section 119) to refer to the Environment Agency the questions: - whether the discharges to which the notice relates should be prohibited; and - whether, if they are not prohibited, any requirements should be imposed as to the conditions on which they are made. It is this information, stored within IPCIS, that makes up the Referrals of Red List Discharges to Sewers dataset. This dataset used to be known as the Water Industry Act Referrals dataset. The Red List is a list of 23 of the most dangerous substances which were selected for priority control under the Integrated Pollution Control legislation (subsequently superseded by the Pollution Prevention and Control and then Environmental Permitting Regulations). This list of substances includes EC List I substances defined under the Dangerous Substances Directive, as well as certain substances listed on EC List 2. Please note that this dataset became static in October 2017 and will no longer be updated. Attribution statement: © Environment Agency copyright and/or database right 2015. All rights reserved.
