Waste Regulations Are Changing

Is your scrap metal or cable recycling business ready?

The regulatory requirements for waste businesses are changing.

Businesses operating in the scrap metal, metal recycling and copper cable processing sectors need to make sure their licences, registrations, waste exemptions and permit arrangements remain suitable for the activities they carry out.

5K Consultancy Ltd can help you understand what applies to your business and what action may be required.

Currently operating under a T9 Waste Exemption?

The Government has confirmed that the T9 Recovery of Scrap Metal exemption will be removed.

If your business currently relies on T9, now is a good time to review your activities and understand whether you may need to move to an Environmental Permit.
