Details

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to get an environmental permit for a waste operation and comply with its conditions when you store seized vehicles with waste onboard. However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action when you do this without an environmental permit if you comply with the requirements in this RPS.

This enforcement position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
