Doing the Right Things Methodology
Project outputs
Doing the right things for environmental permitting project (2016-2018) that looks closely at the relation between permitting and inspection, identify interesting case studies and best practices in Europe and identify and describe the steps that could be used in permitting procedures. This report focus on the comparison of the different permitting situations in the IMPEL member countries. The comparison was made possible through a questionnaire and a workshop (held in The Netherlands) that helped to define needs and input for the development of a step-by-step guidance.
This guidance was produced under the 2012 IMPEL project: Environmental inspections of industrial installations in accordance with the Industrial Emissions Directive (IED) The main objective of this project was to organise an exchange of information concerning best practices for the implementation of article 23 of the IED taking into account the guidance on inspection planning and risk appraisal already developed by IMPEL and the requirements described in Article 23 of the IED.
Pursuant to the Recommendation providing for minimum criteria for environmental inspections (RMCEI) all inspection activities should be planned in advance. Practitioners have expressed the need for guidance to help the implementation of the minimum criteria on planning in the RMCEI. This guidance book was produced for that purpose.
