Paragraph 5 I1

England and Wales

(1)

Any facilities used for the temporary storage of slurry before it is transferred to a slurry storage tank must have adequate capacity to store—

(a)

the maximum quantity of slurry that (disregarding any slurry which will be transferred directly into a slurry storage tank) is likely to be produced on the premises in any two day period, or

(b)

a lesser capacity that F1NRW agrees in writing is adequate to avoid any significant risk of pollution of controlled waters.

(2)

Where slurry flows into a channel before discharging into a reception pit and the flow of slurry out of the channel is controlled by means of a sluice, the capacity of the reception pit must be adequate to hold the maximum quantity of slurry that can be released by opening the sluice.
