  • Waters ActWill introduce transfer licensing to dewatering activities for the first time in the UKThe aggregates sector has been dewatering quarries for mineral extraction for many yearsThere are 2 types of licence:Abstraction licence where the dewater is used on site for dust suppression, mineral washing, etc.Transfer licence where dewater is dischargedUK Example: SD & Aggregates*

  • Proposed timetable for implementation October 2012 to 2014, but Guidance document still to be consulted upon likely to delay commencement

    There will be a need to demonstrate pumping/ dewatering in 4 years prior to 1 October 2012

    There will also be a need to understand volumes pumped and whether these are consumptive or non-consumptive uses

    There will be an increased focus on metering.UK Example: SD & AggregatesWaters Act (continued)*

  • EU ETS European Union Emissions Trading SchemeCap-and-trade scheme that applies to energy intensive sectors with the aim of reducing CO2 emissions. A limit or cap is set on the emissions of CO2 within the EU

    Participants are allocated a certain number of allowances within the cap. Exceptions are electricity generators who will have to purchase allowances to cover their emissions from 2013 onwards

    Efficient businesses will have surplus allowances that can be sold, inefficient businesses will have to buy allowances

    EU ETS covers around 43% of UK greenhouse gas emissions

    EU ETS does not cover transport, domestic energy use or non-energy intensive industries. UK Example: SD & Cement*

  • CRCCarbon Reduction Commitment Energy Efficiency SchemeAim is to improve energy efficiency and reduce CO2 emissions. Includes organisations above a certain level of energy use. Designed to raise awareness in large organisations, especially at senior levelDoes not apply to those emissions already regulated by the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS)Each year allowances are bought to cover CO2 emissions over the coming year. Carbon price currently set at 12 / t CO2. At the end of the year allowances covering CO2 emissions are surrenderedA league table ranks participants in terms of energy efficiency improvementScheme currently under review re simplification.UK Example: SD & Cement*

  • Climate Change LevyA levy on the use of energy in industry, commerce, agriculture and the public sector

    Introduced in 1998 to help UK meet its legally binding target of a 12.5% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and move towards the governments domestic goal of a 20% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2010

    It is effectively an energy tax on non-domestic users, with the revenue from the levy being recycled in the form of a discount on employers National Insurance Contributions

    Some energy-intensive industries have negotiated a rebate on the levy through Climate Change Agreements.UK Example: SD & Cement*

  • Climate Change AgreementsUK Government has recognised the need to give special consideration to energy-intensive industries with regards to climate change, given their energy use and their need to compete internationally

    Consequently, energy-intensive industries can obtain a 65% discount from the Climate Change Levy (90% for electricity from 2013), provided they meet challenging targets for improving their energy efficiency or reducing their carbon emissions.

    UK Example: SD & Cement*

  • Focus on use of waste derived fuelsWaste-derived materials: tyres, waste solvents, Meat & Bone Meal biomass, paper/plastic mix, packaging, RDF, sludge, wood

    In EU, 22% replacement of fossil fuels on average (up to 70% in some EU regions)

    In UK, 38% replacement of fossil fuels in 2010 - equivalent to 401,194 tonnes of coal.UK Example: SD & Cement*

    ***********Following this information, Defra made the decision to undertake pilot studies into biodiversity offsetting. Launched in April 2012, they are looking at creating a market through the planning system by requiring conservation credits to offset biodiverse areas that are adversely affected by development.

    Offsetting identified in the July 2012 Defra report, Opportunities for UK Business that Value and/or Protect Nature's Services as one of 8 main types of business opportunity (ranked equal first with peatland carbon code)

    Six pilot areas (Devon, Doncaster, Essex, Greater Norwich, Nottinghamshire, Coventry Warwickshire and Solihull are participating; local authorities and significant stakeholders investigating a voluntary undertaking of offsetting methods.

    With our landholdings and understanding of valuation, the aggregates sector should be in a position, when this is formalised into all planning applications, to offer conservation credits for sale to developers who would then be able to offset the impact of their development proposals.

    For this, we need our site managers to be aware
