Abstract
These Regulations transpose Chapters I, V and VII as well as Annex VII of Directive 2010/75/ EU on industrial emissions. Chapter V sets out special provisions for installations and activities using organic solvents. These Regulations do not apply to installations that are licensed separately by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Regulations apply to dry cleaners and other sectoral activities listed in Schedule 1 where the solvent consumption is within or above the thresholds specified in Schedule 2. Such installations must be operated in compliance with these Regulations. Any person or body who contravenes a provision of these Regulations is guilty of an offence and shall be liable to the penalties provided for in these Regulations.
