Land

Through its ability to filter and retain nutrients, land helps to protect air and water quality, support habitats and enhance biodiversity. Healthy, well-managed land also plays an important part in flood risk management.

Through its ability to filter and retain nutrients, land helps to protect air and water quality, support habitats and enhance biodiversity. Healthy, well-managed land also plays an important part in flood risk management. We are transitioning to a new website, and some content from this section is now on our Beta site. Land quality – defined by its ability to sustain and fulfil a variety of uses – is vital to health and wellbeing. Through its ability to filter and retain nutrients, land helps to protect air and water quality, support habitats and enhance biodiversity. Healthy, well-managed land also plays an

Radioactive substances

Regulation of radioactive substances in Scotland

Regulation of radioactive substances in Scotland Environmental authorisations (Scotland) Regulations 2018 What are we able to do? We can now accept: Applications for an EASR18 authorisation (please contact sepa.org.uk/contact). Online notifications EASR18 for orphan source or managed radioactive substances (only IAEA category 5 that: exceed 200 kBq; tritium sources exceeding 20 GBq; and electrodeposited source.

Exempt activities

SEPA gathers data annually on the type, quantity and geographical origin of the waste handled from operators of the following ‘complex’ exempt activities. Paragraphs 7, 8(2), 10, 46 and 50. Paragraphs 9 and 19 where the volume of waste used exceeds 2,500 cubic metres Paragraph 12 where the volume of waste used exceeds 10 tonnes per year. Operators are asked to submit their data returns usin

Protected areas

Information regarding water bodies designated as protected areas.

Information regarding water bodies designated as protected areas. A significant number of the water bodies in Scotland are designated as protected areas. This is because of their importance for special purposes such as wildlife conservation, drinking water supply, shellfish harvesting or bathing. These designated areas are vital to ensure that the diverse ecosystems and cultural and economic benefits contained within them are safeguarded. Protected areas are als

Finfish Aquaculture Advisory Panel

The Finfish Aquaculture Advisory Panel will provide advice to SEPA on the implementation of our regulation of finfish aquaculture sector under our sector plan in order to ensure our decision making is fully informed. The Advisory Panel includes representation from fish producers, environmental NGOs, local community groups, finfish buyers, the Fisheries Management Scotland and other regulators. Cha

Monitoring

We have three categories of monitoring which have different but complementary purposes: surveillance, operational and investigative. This strategy ensures we are collecting the right information in the right place and allows us to concentrate our effort on the greatest risks to the environment.

We have three categories of monitoring which have different but complementary purposes: surveillance, operational and investigative. This strategy ensures we are collecting the right information in the right place and allows us to concentrate our effort on the greatest risks to the environment. We have many years of experience in monitoring and protecting the aquatic environment. In 2007, the Water Framework Directive (WFD) introduced the need for a broader, more holistic approach to monitoring and classifying Scotland’s aquatic environment. Its aim is to use data collected to protect and improve water bodies in order that they meet good ecological status, or similar objective. This moni

Shellfish water protected areas

Legislation directs SEPA to assess and classify each shellfish protected area. To deliver this we work closely with Food Standards Scotland (FSS). FSS sample, analyse and report water quality in production areas throughout the year to ensure shellfish are safe for consumption, or determine if they require further treatment. At the end of each year FSS provide SEPA with this data who use it to clas

Long-term river water quality indicator

SEPA publishes a long-term river water quality indicator, based on a network of sites covering 253 water bodies (rivers or sections of rivers). This indicator is based on a consistent set of five water quality parameters which are sensitive to organic pollution, nutrients and toxic substances, and which provide a measure of species diversity across approximately 10% of all water bodies.
