SCHEDULE 6Requirements for slurry storage systems
5.
(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 NRBW 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.
