(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Environmental Protection (Disposal of Polychlorinated Biphenyls and other Dangerous Substances) (Scotland) Regulations 2000 (“the 2000 Regulations”) to correct errors in certain amendments made to the 2000 Regulations by the Environmental Protection (Disposal of Polychlorinated Biphenyls and other Dangerous Substances) (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2020.
Regulation 2(2) amends the definition of “PCBs” in regulation 2(1) of the 2000 Regulations so that the reference to mixtures of PCBs does not apply in relation to regulation 5(4) of the 2000 Regulations.
Regulation 2(3) amends the references to PCBs in regulation 4 of the 2000 Regulations so that references in that regulation are to volumes of fluids containing PCBs and not to the volume of PCBs.
Regulation 2(4) makes similar amendments to regulation 5 of the 2000 Regulations.
These Regulations also revoke the Environmental Protection (Disposal of Polychlorinated Biphenyls and other Dangerous Substances) (Scotland) Regulations 2025.
