Access to water is vital for many industries but without permits and licences, the balance of our water supply would be disrupted, causing impacts on the environment. The role of abstraction licences, environmental permits and waste permits allows regulatory authorities to monitor and control the amount of water abstracted, water discharged, and hazardous waste disposed of, to maintain environmental sustainability.
Abstraction Licensing and Discharge Permits
Our team has many years of experience negotiating with the Environment Agency, SEPA, NRW and other regulatory authorities to secure licences and permits for clients in some of the most environmentally sensitive catchments. This has included catchments ‘closed’ to new abstraction licences.
Landfill and Waste Permitting
With in-depth knowledge and extensive regulatory experience across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, our team will work with you to secure environmental permits (England) and Waste Management Licences (Scotland) for a range of landfill, waste or mining waste operations.
