1 Welcome Introduction Welcome to the H1 software This version of the database tool accompanies the IPPC Guidance version H1v6 July This software tool is for use with the IPPC guidance note H1 "Environmental Assessment & BAT Appraisal". The H1 guidance provides a structured methodology to demonstrate that an activity uses the Best Available Techniques, by: - assessing the the costs and environmental benefits of options for pollution prevention and control techniques; and - conducting an environmental assessment to demonstrate that no significant pollution is caused. Important Notes: This software tool can be used to complete most of the modules within H1. However, further information may need to be provided in the following areas: - detailed assessment of fate and effects, where required - decision-making trails for the comparison and ranking of options This software provides a general structure for assessing costs and environmental impacts. You may need to decide the best way to apply this structure to fit the nature and pattern of your operation, in particular: - where load is variable, such as seasonal or demand-led operations - where a number of processes are conducted at the same time, such as integrated operations - where a number of products are made, with possible differences in unit operations and release points employed - where fugitive or potential emergency releases are of particular interest Information in this database will be used to determine your PPC permit, therefore to get the most from this software tool, you should: - read the introduction to the H1 guidance, to understand the basic principles, module structure and methods - use the HELP boxes and refer to the H1 guidance as you progress to ensure that the data you input is representative and accurate - use the comments boxes to clarify assumptions and data sources Some basic instructions for using the software tool are provided in Appendix I of the H1 Guidance The application has been optimised for a screen resolution of 800 x 600 Version August

4 Introduction, Module 1 module 1 Introduction to Module 1 Module 1: Describe the Scope and Options The aim of this module is to: - state the OBJECTIVES of the assessment - in the case of ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT of the whole installation, describe the scope of the activities to be included in the assessment; - in the case of OPTIONS APPRAISALS, identify candidate options for BAT by considering all relevant techniques to prevent and minimise pollution and the scope of activities covered by the techniques. Depending on the reason for the assessment, you will need to complete different modules of the guidance. The software will automatically select the required modules according to the responses you enter. NOTE: If you are going to complete more than one assessment or appraisal, make sure that you create a copy of the H1 file for each new assessment BEFORE you begin to input data. This is because Microsoft Access automatically saves changes to the current file you are using, rather than allowing you to save your changes at the end of your work. TO CONTINUE WITH MODULE 1, PRESS "NEXT".

5 Describe the Objectives module Describe the Objectives Depending on the reason for the assessment, you will need to complete different modules of the guidance. Select the type of assessment: a) to conduct a costs/benefits OPTIONS APPRAISAL to determine BAT for selected releases from an installation Do modules 1,2, 3 and 4 and continue with 5 and 6 if necessary b) to carry out an ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT of the emissions resulting from the installation as a whole Do modules 1, 2 and 3 only 1.1 Briefly summarise the objectives and reason for the assessment in terms of the main environmental impacts or emissions to be controlled: Submitted with an Environmental Permit application to operate a non hazardous Resource Recovery Centre (Energy From Waste Facility) at New England Quarry, Devon. This assessment is being undertaken to assess the potential point source emissions to air, surface water, sewer, groundwater and land as appropriate. The EfW will accept 275,000 tonnes of non hazardous waste.

20 Module 3 - Quantify Impacts module 3 Introduction to Module 3 Module 3: Quantify Impacts The aim of this module is to quantify the effects on the environment of the emissions listed in the inventory in module 2. This guidance provides methods for assessing the ten main environmental considerations of most relevance to the PPC regime. Your emissions may not result in effects to all ten of these considerations, and the module allows you to screen out any that are not relevant. The emissions you entered in module 2 are automatically brought forward for assessment into each environmental consideration that is relevant for that type of emission (e.g. an emission may have more than one type of effect). This module allows you to screen out any emissions that are insignificant, and to identify those emissions where further, detailed assessment of the potential environemtnal impact may be required. IMPORTANT NOTE This software tool only completes PART of the requirements for module 3, as described above. Depending upon the degree of risk to the environment presented by the emissions, the operator may need to do further, detailed assessment of the potential effects using methodologies that are not provided here. This information should be submitted separately, as indicated within this module. TO CONTINUE WITH MODULE 3, PRESS "NEXT".

21 Identify relevant Impacts module Identify Relevant Impacts Identify any environmental impacts that are not relevant to this assessment by deselecting from the list below: Emissions in Module 2? Yes Yes No No No Yes - Yes Yes Yes Justification for omission Air Deposition from Air to Land Water No Point Source Emissions to Water - see /H1P1 Noise Noise assessed as part of the Planning Application (Section 6) Odour No Point Source Emissions of odour from the EfW - see /H1P1 Waste Hazard Accidents See /H1P1 and /BAT & AMP Visual See Section 5 of EP application (Landscape & Visual Impact Assessment) Ozone Creation Global Warming If you have deselected an environmental impact as not relevant to this assessment, no further assessment of this impact will be carried out and associated assessment pages will be hidden

22 Local Environmental Quality module Local Environmental Quality Describe the Quality of the Environment: Provide a brief description of the main local factors that may influence the importance of the impact of emissions in the surrounding environment Air Quality Are there any Environmental Quality Standards relating to substances released from the activities, which may be at risk due to additional contribution from the activity? (Environmental Quality Standards for air and water are described in IPPC Technical Guidance Notes) Are there any Local Air Quality Management Plans applicable to releases from the activity? Relevant EQSs that have been considered during detailed modelling are as detailed in the Air Quality Assessment which is appended to the BAT document - SLR Reference /BAT No Water Quality & Resources Are there any Environmental Quality Standards relating to substances released from the activities, which may be at risk due to additional contribution from the activity? Are proposals to abstract water satisfactory in order to obtain an abstraction licence? Is the activity located in a groundwater vulnerable zone (for activities with direct releases to land only)? Proximity to Sensitive Receptors Is public annoyance likely to be an issue for noise, odour or plume visibility? Are there any wildlife habitats, eg Special Areas of Conservation,or Special Protection Areas, likely to be affected by releases from the activity? (Description of requirements of Habitats Directive is provided in IPPC Technical Guidance Notes) Any process water generated at the facility will be treated on site, taken off site by tanker to a suitably licensed facility or discharged to sewer. Clean surface water from hard standing areas and from the landfill cap will be attenuated in the surface water lagoons. From here the water will be discharged to the River Yealm. Not Applicable Not Applicable Fugitive emissions and impact on sensitive receptors are addressed in the H1 Part 1 Environmental Risk Assessment - SLR Reference /H1P1. A list of nearby SSSI and European Sites including SPA is included in the H1 Part 1 Environmental Risk Assessment - SLR Reference /H1P1.
