Article 8 Releases from diffuse sources

The F1Secretary of State, shall include in the F2United Kingdom PRTR information on releases from diffuse sources where such information exists and has already been reported by the F3appropriate authorities outside England or by the competent authority in England.

The information referred to in paragraph 1 shall be organised such as to allow users to search for and identify releases of pollutants from diffuse sources according to an adequate geographical disaggregation and shall include information on the type of methodology used to derive the information.

Where it determines that no data on the releases from diffuse sources exist the appropriate authority may, by regulations, make provision for the purpose of this Regulation regarding reporting on releases of relevant pollutants from one or more diffuse sources using, where appropriate, internationally approved methodologies.
