IPPC Training

IPPC is aimed at specific facilities and operations, which are deemed to be polluting or have a potential to pollute. The underlying factors behind the IPPC regime include an increased awareness of the activities of man that are producing significant, and possibly accelerated, pollution of air, land and water resources on a worldwide level. Major concerns include the serious and adverse effects of Climate Change resulting from the release of Carbon Dioxide and other Climate altering chemicals into the atmosphere. Other significant concerns include the pollution of water, a resource essential to life, and the contamination of land.

The course covers the following topics:

History and background on the IPPC regime
The main principles of IPPC
Detailed information about the requirements of the IPPC regime
The principle differences between the IPC, LAPC and IPPC regimes
The PPC Regulations 2000
The requirements of IPPC permitting and the permit application process
The consequences of associated offences
