The Environmental Protection Act 1990 (initialism: EPA) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that as of 2008 defines, within England and Wales and Scotland, the fundamental structure and authority for waste management and control of emissions into the environment.

Part I establishes a general regime by which the Secretary of State, as of 2008 the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, can prescribe any process or substance and set limits on it in respect of emissions into the environment. Authorisation and enforcement was originally in the hands of HM Inspectorate of Pollution and local authorities but, as of 1996, became the responsibility of the Environment Agency (EA) and Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA). Operation of a prescribed process is prohibited without approval and there are criminal sanctions against offenders.Part II sets out a regime for regulating and licensing the acceptable disposal of controlled waste on land. Controlled waste is any household, industrial and commercial waste (s.75(4)). Unauthorised or harmful depositing, treatment or disposal of controlled waste is prohibited with prohibition enforced by criminal sanctions. Further, there is a broad duty of care on importers, producers, carriers, keepers, treaters or disposers of controlled waste to prevent unauthorised or harmful activities. Breach of the duty of care is a crime. The Act demands that the Secretary of State create a National Waste Strategy for England and Wales, and the SEPA, a Strategy for Scotland. Local authorities have duties to collect controlled waste and to undertake recycling. There are criminal penalites on households and businesses who fail to cooperate with the local authorities' arragements. Enforcement of these penalties sometimes proves controversial.

Part IIA was inserted by the Environment Act 1995 and defines a scheme of identification and compulory remedial action for contaminated land. Part III defines a class of statutory nuisances over which the local authority can demand remedial action supported by criminal penalties. Part IV defines a set of criminal offences concerning litter.

Part VI defines a regime of statutory notification and risk assessment for genetically modified organisms (GMOs). There are duties with respect to the import, acquisition, keeping, release or marketing of GMOs and the Secretary of State has the power to prohibit specific GMOs if there is a damger of environmental damage.

Part VII of the Act created three new organisations: the Nature Conservancy Council for England, the Nature Conservancy Council for Scotland, and the Countryside Council for Wales. Since 1990, the English and Scottish Councils have been the subject of considerable reorganisation and, as of 2008, only the Welsh Council is still governed by the Act.

The Act superseded the requirements under section 1(1)(d) of the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 in respect of controlling noxious emissions (s.162(2)/ Sch.16).

In the opeating year 2005/ 2006, the EA brought 880 prosecutions with an average fine of about £1,700, and 736 in 2006/ 2007 with an average fine of £6,773. There have also been sentences of imprisonment, including two of over 16 months in 2006/ 2007. [Environment Agency, " [http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/commondata/acrobat/annual_report072_1830041.pdf Annual report and accounts 2006/07] ", "pp"3, 13, retrieved 19 July 2008]

Background

The Act implements the European Union Waste Framework Directive in England and Wales and Scotland. [Council Directive 75/442/EEC as amended by Directives 91/156/EEC and 91/692/EEC] [Defra (1996) "p."4] The Act was intended to strengthen pollution controls and support enforcement with heavier penalties. Before the Act there had been separate environmental regulation of air, water and land pollution and the Act brought in an integrated scheme that would seek the "best practicable environmental option". There was previously no uniform system of licensing or public right of access to information. The split of the Nature Conservancy Council (NCC) into English, Welsh and Scottish bodies was controversial. Purportedly forced on Secretary of State Chris Patten by Secretary of State for Scotland Malcolm Rifkind and forestry minister Lord Sanderson, some saw it as "punishment" for the vigorous opposition the NCC had mounted to afforestation in the Flow Country.

Part I - Prescribed processes and substances

The Secretary of State has the power to prescribe certain processes and substances by Statutory Instrument (s.2). As of 2008, prescription is by the Environmental Protection (Prescribed Processes and Substances) Regulations 1991 [ [http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/legResults.aspx?activeTextDocId=3332950 SI 1991/472] ] which have been amended several times. Further, the Secretary of State can make regulations to fix emission standards on prescribed processes and substances (s.3).

Once a process is prescribed, it can only be operated on authorisation from the enforcing authority (s.6). Applications must be made to the authority (Sch.1, Pt.1) and the authority can refuse authorisation or give it subject to conditions (s.7). The authorisation is transferable to somebody else who takes over the undertaking provided that the enforcing authority is notified (s.9). The enforcing authority can revoke the authorisation (s.12) or vary its conditions (s.10) and the operator can apply to have the conditions varied (s.11).

Enforcement

Processes are stipulated as subject to either central control by the EA or SPA, or local control by the local authority but only with respects to atmospheric pollution (ss.2(4), 4). Such an enforcing authority can issue an enforcement notice or prohibition notice on a noncompliant operator (ss.13-14) and there are criminal penalties including fines and imprisonment for violations (s.23).

An operator may appeal a decision about the issue of authorisation, conditions, enforcement or prohibition to the Secretary of State who may hold a hearing or inquiry (s.15).

Enforcing authorities must provide public information on applications, authorisations and enforcement so long as confidentiality and national security are protected (ss.20-22).

Part II - Disposal of controlled waste on land

Controlled waste

Waste is any substance or object within very broad categories set out in Schedule 2B "which the holder discards or intends or is required to discard" (s.75(2)). Controlled waste is "household, industrial and commercial waste or any such waste" (s.75(4)). The exact definition covers a very broad range of waste.

The meaning of discard was considered by the European Court of Justice in 2002, where it was held: ["Palin Granit" [2002] 1 WLR 2644 at 2658]

quotation | The term discard must be interpreted in light of the aim of Directive 75/442 which, according to its third recital, is the protection of human health and the environment against harmful effects caused by the collection, transport, treatment, storage and tipping of waste, and Article 174(2) EC which provides that community policy on the environment is to aim at a high level of protection and is to be based, in particular, on the precautionary principle and the principle that preventive action should be taken. It follows that the concept of waste cannot be interpreted restrictively.
More specifically, the question whether a given substance is waste must be determined in the light of all the circumstances, regard being had to the aim of Directive 75/442 and the need to ensure that its effectiveness is not undermined.

Unauthorised or harmful deposit, treatment or disposal of controlled waste

No person may "treat, keep or dispose of controlled waste in a manner likely to cause pollution of the environment or harm to human health" (s.33(1)(c)).

Except in the case of domestic household waste treated or kept or disposed of on the premises, no person may:
*Deposit controlled waste, or knowingly cause or knowingly permit controlled waste to be deposited in or on any land unless a waste management licence authorising the deposit is in force and the deposit is in accordance with the licence (s.33(1)(a); or
*Treat, keep or dispose of controlled waste, or knowingly cause or knowingly permit controlled waste to be treated, kept or disposed of:
**In or on any land; or
**By means of any mobile plant;— except under and in accordance with a waste management licence.

Duty of care in respect of waste

Section 34(1) imposes a duty on "any person who imports, produces, carries, keeps, treats or disposes of controlled waste or, as a broker, has control of such waste, to take all such measures applicable to him in that capacity as are reasonable in the circumstances":
*To prevent any contravention by any other person of section 33;
*To prevent any contravention of certain provisions of the Pollution Prevention and Control Regulations; [Pollution Prevention and Control (England and Wales) Regulations 2000, [http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2000/20001973.htm SI 2000/1973] ] [Pollution Prevention and Control (Scotland) Regulations 2000, [http://www.opsi.gov.uk/legislation/scotland/ssi2000/20000323.htm SSI 2000/323] ]
*To prevent the escape of the waste from his control or that of any other person; and
*On the transfer of the waste, to secure:
**That the transfer is only to an authorised person or to a person for authorised transport purposes; and
**That there is transferred such a written description of the waste as will enable other persons to avoid a contravention section 33 o r the Pollution Prevention and Control Regulations.

Under section 34(2) an occupier of domestic property must, "as respects the household waste produced on the property, take reasonable steps to secure that any transfer of waste is only to an authorised person or to a person for authorised transport purposes" but has none of the other section 34(1) duties.

Authorised persons include local authorities who have responsibility for waste collection, persons licensed to manage or registered to transport waste or otherwise exempt persons (s.34(3)).

Section 34(5) allows the Secretary of State to make regulations as to retention of documents and the Environmental Protection (Duty of Care) Regulations 1991 [ [http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si1991/uksi_19912839_en_1.htm SI 1991/2839] ] stipulate that:
*All transfers of controlled waste must be accompanied by a transfer note (reg.2);
*Copies of all transfer notes must be kept for two years (reg.3); and
*Transfer notes must be available to the enforcement authority (reg.4).

Waste management licenses

Licenses are issued by waste management authorities and may be subject to conditions (ss.35-36). The Secretary of State may make regulations about what is to be included in the license as a condition (s.35(6)). [Waste Management Licensing Regulations 1994, [http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/legResults.aspx?activeTextDocId=3110711 SI 1994/1056] ] [The Waste Management Licensing (Scotland) Regulations 1996, [http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/legResults.aspx?activeTextDocId=3042333 SSI 1996/916 (S.100)] ] Licenses are transferable (s.40) and decisions as to refusal to grant a license or as to conditions can be appealed to the Secretary of State (s.43).

National and local government responsibilities

Sections 44A and 44B were added by the Environment Act 1995 and require the development of National Waste Strategies for England and Wales, and Scotland respectively. [Environment Act 1995, s.92(1)] Section 45 requires waste collection authorities, usually local authorities, to collect household waste unless it is in an isolated location or arrangements can reasonably be expected to be made by the person who controls the waste. They must also collect commercial waste if requested to do so. Industrial waste can only be collected with the consent of the waste disposal authority (s.45(2)). No charge is to be made for collecting household waste, unless the Secretary of State makes regulations specifying certain collections that must be paid for (s.45(3)). A reasonable charge is to be made for commercial waste collection (s.45(4)). Waste collection authorities have responsibilities for emptying privies and cesspools (ss.45(5) and (6)) and have the power to lay pipes, sewers and other infrastructure to collect waste (s.45(7)). Waste collected by a waste collection authority is the property of the authority (s.45(9)).

The authority can give a householder notice that waste must be disposed of in a specified receptacle, and in a specified manner (s.46). It is a crime to fail, without reasonable excuse, to observe such requirements. On summary conviction in a Magistrates' Court, an offender can be fined up to level 3 on the standard scale (s.46(6)). Authorities also have powers over receptacles for commercial and industrial waste (s.47). There is a system of fixed penalty notices for offences under these sections (ss.47ZA-47ZB). Where controlled waste is depositied on land within their responsibilities,authorities may give notice to the occupier to remove it (ss.59-59A). It is a crime to disturb or sort over, unless with consent, waste deposited for collection by the waste collection authority. On summary conviction in a Magistrates' Court, an offender can be fined up to level 5 on the standard scale (s.60).

Waste collection authorities must deliver the waste to waste disposal authorities unless they intend to recycle it themselves (s.48). Waste disposal authorities must dispose of the waste and also provide facilities for householders to deposit their own waste (s.51).

From 31 December 2010, waste collection authorities in England must make arrangements for the separate collection of at least two types of recyclabe waste unless it would be unreasonably costly to do so (s.45A). The Welsh National Assembly has the power to extend this to Wales (s.45B). Section 55 gives waste disposal authorities and waste collection authorities powers to recycle waste. A disposal authority may:
*Make arrangements to recycle waste;
*Make arrangements to use waste to produce heat or electricity;
*Buy or otherwise acquire waste with a view to its being recycled;
*Use, sell or otherwise dispose of waste, or anything produced from such waste.A waste collection authority may:
*Buy or otherwise acquire waste with a view to recycling it;
*Use, or dispose of by way of sale or otherwise to another person, waste belonging to the authority or anything produced from such waste.

Enforcement

Breach of sections 33 and 34 is a crime and penalties for serious offences by businesses can extend to unlimited fines, imprisonment, seizure of vehicles and clean-up costs.

Part IIA - Contaminated land

Contaminated land is "any land which appears to the local authority in whose area it is situated to be in such a condition, by reason of substances in, on or under the land, that" (s.78A):
*"Significant harm is being caused or there is a significant possibility of such harm being caused; or
*Significant pollution of the water environment is being caused or there is a significant possibility of such pollution being caused."The Act does not apply to contamination from radioactivity (s.78YC) but similar provisions have been made under subsequent regulations. [Radioactive Contaminated Land (Modification of Enactments)(England) Regulations 2006, [http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/content.aspx?ActiveTextDocId=2589891 2006/1379] ] [Radioactive Contaminated Land (Scotland) Regulations 2007, [http://www.statutelaw.gov.uk/content.aspx?ActiveTextDocId=3284199 2007/179] ]

Local authorities have a duty periodically to survey their locality and, using guidance defined by the Secretary of State, [Defra (2006)] to designate contaminated land as a special site, advising the EA or SEPA (ss.78B-78C). The authority, EA or SEPA must then serve a remediation notice on the appropriate person (s.78E).

The appropriate person respnsible for remdial work is "any person, or any of the persons, who caused or knowingly permitted the substances" giving rise to the designation "to be in, on or under that land" (s.78F(2)). If no such person can be identified after reasonable enquiries, the present owner or occupier is the appropriate person (s.78F(4)-(5)). Any persons controlling other land to which access is required for remediation must grant such access and may apply to the appropriate person for compensation (s.78G). The appropriate person is deemed to be responsible for remediation of other land into which substances have escaped (s.78K).

The appropriate person may appeal a notice within 21 days to (s.78L):
*The Magistrates' Court, or Sheriff Court in Scotland, where the notice was served by the local authority; or
*The Secretary of State, where the notice was served by the EA or SEPA.There is a further right of appeal from the Magistrates' Court to the High Court. [Contaminated Land (England) Regulations 2000, [http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2000/20000227.htm SI 2000/227] , reg.13] but ultimately it is a crime not to comply with a notice (s.78M). The locat authority, EA or SEPA can perform the remedial work themselves if the appropriate person cannot be found, defaults or requests that they do so (s.78N). The authority have discretion as to whether to make the appropriate person responsible for the costs (s.78P).

Local authorities, the EA and SEPA must maintain a register of notices that is publicly available save for reasons of confidentiality and national security (ss.78R-T).

Part III - Statutory nuisances

Section 79 defines several statutory nuisances:
*Any premises in such a state as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance;
*Smoke emitted from premises so as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance;
*Fumes or gases emitted from premises so as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance;
*Any dust, steam, smell or other effluvia arising on industrial, trade or business premises and being prejudicial to health or a nuisance;
*Any accumulation or deposit which is prejudicial to health or a nuisance;
*Any animal kept in such a place or manner as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance;
*Noise emitted from premises so as to be prejudicial to health or a nuisance; and
*Noise that is prejudicial to health or a nuisance and is emitted from or caused by a vehicle, machinery or equipment on a highway, road, footway, square or court open to the public.

There are some exclusions from these categories including contaminated land (s.79(1A)), activities of the armed forces (ss.79(2) and 79(6A)(b)), certain categories of smoke and dark smoke (s.79(3)), traffic (s.79(6A)(a)) and demonstrations (s.79(6A)(c)).

Local authorities have a duty to make periodic inspections of their area or in response to a complaint from the public (s.79(1)). The local authority can serve an offending occupier with an abatement notice to cease the nuisance (s.80(1)). The occupier can appeal the notice, within 21 days, to the Magistrates' Court, in England and Wales, or Sheriff Court in Scotland (s.80(3)). Otherwise, it is a crime to fail, without reasonable excuse, to comply with the notice (s.80(4)), punishable on summary conviction by a fine at level 5 of the standard scale, rising by ten percent for every further day on which the nuisance continues (s.80(5)). If the offence is committed by the occupier of business premises, the maximum fine is £40,000 (s.80(6)). Where the notice is not complied with, the local authority may take reasonable action to abate the nuisance and recover the exenses from the occupier (s.81(3)-(4)), if necessary by installments or by making a charge on the property (s.81A(1)).

Any person aggrieved by a statutory nuisance may make a complaint to the Magistrates of Sheriff (s.82(1)). The court can order the occupier to abate the damage and, in England and Wales only, impose a fine of up to level 5 on the standard scale (s.82(2)). It is a crime, without reasonable excuse, to disobey such an order, punishable on summary conviction by a fine at level 5 of the standard scale, rising by ten percent for every further day on which the nuisance continues (s.82(8)).

Section 84 repeals local authority controls over offensive trades under the Public Health Act 1936.

Part IV - Litter

Section 87 creates the criminal offence of leaving litter. "If any person throws down, drops or otherwise deposits in, into or from any place to which this section applies, and leaves, any thing whatsoever in such circumstances as to cause, or contribute to, or tend to lead to, the defacement by litter of any place to which this section applies, he shall ... be guilty of an offence" (s.87(1)). There are exceptions where the person has lawful authorisation or consent (s.87(2)). Offenders can, on summary conviction in the Magistrates' Court, be sentenced to a fine of up to level 4 on the standard scale (s.87(5)).

There is also a system of fixed penalty notices (s.88). Local authorities and central government have duties to keep roads, highways and public spaces free from litter (s.89). Members of the public who are aggrieved by litter in public places can apply to the Magistrates' Court for an abatement notice to order the responsible public body to carry out its duties under section 89 (s.91). Public authorities also have powers to issue litter abatement notices and litter clearing notices on the occupiers of certain premises to order clearing of litter (ss.92-92A). Occupiers can appeal against a notice to the Magistrates Court within 21 days (s.92B) but it is otherwise a crime to disobey a notice, punlishable on summary conviction to a fine of up to level 4 on the standard scale (s.92C). A local authority may also issue street litter control notices to occupiers of certain premises, such as take-out food establishments, to keep the street and public areas near to their premises clear of litter (s.93).

Local authorities have the power to designate land in order to prevent the distribution of free printed material, such as advertising flyers. Offenders face summary conviction in the Magistrates' Court and a fine of up to level 4 on the standard scale, seizure of the material or a fixed penalty notice (s.94B / Sch.3A) Local authorities may seize abandoned shopping trollies and luggage trollies, returning them to their owner and imposing a statutory fee, or otherwise disposing of them (s.99 / Sch.4).

Some of the provisions of this part were repealed and superseded by the Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005.
