producing, managing or carrying businesses will be affected. The new regulations will, effectively, give the EA the powers to apply certain sanctions without having to resort to prosecution. There are six types of civil sanctions:
U
Compliance Notice - a regulator’s written notice requiring actions to comply with the law, or to return to compliance, within a specified period.
Restoration Notice - a regulator’s written notice requiring steps to be taken, within a stated period, to restore harm caused by non- compliance, so far as possible.
Fixed Monetary Penalty - a low level fine, fixed by legislation, that the regulator may impose for a specified minor offence.
Enforcement Undertaking - an offer, formally accepted by the regulator, to take steps that would make amends for non-compliance and its effects.
Variable Monetary Penalty - a proportionate monetary penalty which the regulator may impose for a more serious offence.
No hassle… No wasted time… No repairs.

properly bunded, and that spill kits are in place to cope with any re- fuelling spillages. Gravity feed tanks (and certainly not single skin ones) should not be used, as contents can be discharged to ground if valves were to be broken off.

too if your waste ends up in the wrong place. Look at what the EA say: We can take enforcement action against people that fly tip or dump waste, which can result in a fine of up to £50,000. We will prosecute anyone who gives their waste to a person who is not registered with us as a waste
