Schedule 9, Part 3, paragraph 1

An environmental permit which meets each of the following criteria is subject to conditions A and B— the permit was granted before 6th April 2008; the permit does not authorise a waste operation carried on at an installation or by means of a Part B mobile plant; and the permit does not, immediately before 7th April 2019, contain a condition referring to a management system recorded in writing relating to risks relating to pollution. Condition A is that the operator must manage and operate the waste operation in accordance with a system (a “written management system”), described in a document or documents, which identifies and minimises the risks of pollution arising from the waste operation, including (but not limited to) those— arising from operations (including maintenance); arising from an accident or other incident; arising from a failure to comply with or from a contravention of the environmental permit in question; identified following a complaint; or arising from the closure of the operation. Condition B is that the operator must— from time to time, review the written management system and keep it up to date; and keep a written record of— activities carried out in accordance with the written management system; and any review or update under paragraph (a). If the regulator varies an environmental permit which meets the criteria in paragraph (1) so as to include a condition referring to a management system recorded in writing relating to risks relating to pollution, this paragraph ceases to apply to that environmental permit.
