Mistakes to avoid
Air and emissions: mastering the obligations imposed by chemical products and substances

All regulations governing discharges into water provide for the possibility of planned or unannounced inspections by government officials, commissioned laboratories or bailiffs. These requirements entail obligations relating to :

• reception (information for staff involved in receiving visitors);

• accessibility and safety of measurement point discharge outlets;

• the design of structures enabling the installation of sampling and measurement equipment.

Failure to comply with these obligations constitutes an obstacle to control, subject to penalties.
