Consultation on a draft second edition of IPPC SG6 for A2 activities in the Solvents sector

This is the final consultation of Sector Guidance Note (SG) 6 for A2 activities in the organic solvents sector on the fifth of the so-called '2-year reviews' of all the sector guidance notes for the local authority IPPC-regime. The 2-year review programme is to reinforce the guidance on non-air matters, which were given limited coverage in the original published notes. It should be noted that this review of the guidance did not examine the air emission limits.

We have sent this letter to members of all the technical working groups for LA-IPPC sectors, as we did with an earlier draft. For this revised version of SG6 we have used a similar approach to that we employed for the review of SG7 (Ceramics).

The revised guidance will be issued under regulation 37 of the Pollution Prevention and Control (England and Wales) Regulations 2000. It will also serve as statutory guidance under the forthcoming Environmental Permitting Regulations. Defra and the Welsh Assembly Government are carrying out this consultation exercise jointly.

The closing date to this consultation is 5 November 2007.
