BAT aplication ?? Comparison with BAT – in application: • Use sectoral or horizontal BREFs • Use sectoral studies • Comparison with competitors and info from suppliers of technologies • Assess consideration from annex 4 • Use UK guidance onwww.environment-agency.gov.uk In practice„WE HAVE BAT because it was EXPENSIVE“ Support BAT programs – State Env. Fund
Implementation in practice • 196 decision on IP + 100 application in the process • Need for negotiation of extent and content of application before official procedure • Best applications made by operators (3 months) • BAT assessment …???…different approaches • Operators rarely willing to specify improvements plans • EQS - Regional env. plans and local env. priorities –Available/How to use? • Lack of staff on RA and AIP, lack of practical guidance

Lessons • What to define first - permit or application content and template? • How to from media based to integrated permitting – administration conflicts • Coordination of more institutions - (RA, CEI, RHyg.Off., AIP, LA, MoE) – how to make it work • List of installation – base for planning and for interpretation ‘who falls in’ • Preparation of permitting authorities - early pilot projects • Financing technical support of state admin. (AIP, TWGs)… • 1st round of permits => operators document’sinventory => improve
