Air quality and pollution prevention

The Environmental Permitting Regulations 2010 allow for fees and charges to be set for Local Air Pollution Prevention and Control (LAPPC) and Local Air – Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control (LA-IPPC) at levels that will recover costs of local authorities of implementing the system.


This consultation relates to the LAPPC and LA-IPPC fees and charges in Wales. It will be of interest to Welsh businesses who hold LAPPC and LA-IPPC permits. These businesses include:
  • chipboard and glass manufacture;
  • foundries;
  • animal renderers;
  • crematoria;
  • paint manufacture;
  • larger furniture works;
  • petrol stations; and
  • high street dry cleaners.
Please read the consultation letter and consultation document for more details.

This is a public consultation. We would particularly like to encourage responses from all Part A2 and Part B permit holders and Local Authorities within Wales.

The Department for the Environment and for Rural Affairs (Defra) is consulting separately on these charges in England. More information is available at the Defra website and via the link above.
