COMBINED OPERATIONS NOTIFICATION ENVIRONMENTAL OPERATIONAL CONTROL INSPECTION TEMPLATE

Note on Purpose of Template

This document will be available to inspectors to record the inspection of a combined operations notification (CON) submitted under SCR2015 against the
requirements of Schedule 10, which outlines the ‘Particulars to be included in a notification of combined operations’. It has been decided that this will be
conducted by the IMT inspector for the installation. The notification will also be copied to the Environmental Topic Specialist. By exception the inspector may
refer the notification to further topic specialist inspector(s) to comment where he/she feels it is necessary to explore the details of the submission further.

The document is drafted to complement the guidance being produced to support the regulations as well as existing topic sector guidance. Requirements
identified by green text are new to SCR2015; those in black text were present in SCR05. It is proposed that similar templates will be developed for each
discipline that together will form the complete record of the inspection process undertaken by the Competent Authority. It is proposed to make these templates
freely available to promote transparency and assist industry in drafting its submissions.
