Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2014 (S.I. No. 2852 of 2014).

These Regulations amend the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2010 so as to remove the requirement to register small discharges of sewage effluent (which are discharges from a sewage treatment plant into surface water and discharges from a septic tank or sewage treatment plant into groundwater), in order to be exempt from the requirement for an environmental permit. They also, among other things: revise to the conditions that must be satisfied in order for small discharges of sewage effluent to be exempt from the need for a permit; clarify which provisions of the principal Regulations apply to England and which apply to Wales.
