Details of the application

The Environment Agency has received an application to vary an environmental permit under the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 involving substantial change to a permit from Veolia ES (UK) Limited.

Application number

EPR/XP3037SE/V009

Regulated facility type

The Application is for an existing Installation based in Aldridge in the West Midlands. The variation is to add a further treatment tank and mixer (with abatement) to the treatment plant used for processing APCr wastes on the site (without increasing the total waste tonnage throughput at the site). The Operator is also looking to add a waste transfer Activity onto the site within an existing building, allowing them to receive, store and transfer Healthcare Wastes. This will include some repackaging of wastes as an S5.3 A1 (a)(iv) Activity on site.

Regulated facility address

Empire Treatment Works
Stubbers Green Road
Aldridge
Walsall

The application contains a description of how the proposed change(s) may affect:

  • the installation
  • the materials, substances and energy it will use and generate
  • the conditions of its site
  • the source, nature and quantity of its foreseeable emissions and their significant effects on the environment
  • the proposed techniques for preventing, reducing, and monitoring its emissions and preventing and recovering waste
  • and an outline of the main alternatives, if any, considered
