UK Cross Cutting BATc Interpretation Guidance_v2 Final.pdf (environment-agency.gov.uk)
This guidance applies to all IED installations in the UK for which BAT Conclusions have been published since the IED came into force in 2010. It has been written jointly by the Environment Agency (EA), the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA), Natural Resources Wales (NRW), the Northern Ireland Environment Agency (NIEA), the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) and the Local Authority Unit of the Environment Agency (acting on behalf of the Local Authorities regulating Part A(2) installations).
This guidance is ‘cross-cutting’ in that it covers issues that are relevant to more than one of the Best Available Techniques Reference (BRef) documents issued by the European Commission under the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) and/or Best Available Techniques Conclusions (BATC) for UK BAT published by the devolved administrations. It should be read in conjunction with any UK sector-specific guidance document that covers issues related to only one BAT document.
