Proposal for a directive
Recital 1

Text proposed by the Commission

(1) The European Green Deal⁵⁵ is Europe’s strategy to ensure, by 2050, a climate-neutral, clean and circular economy, optimising resource management, minimising pollution while recognising the need for deeply transformative policies. The Union is also committed to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development⁵⁶ and its Sustainable Development Goals⁵⁷ . The EU Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability⁵⁸ of October 2020 and the Zero Pollution Action Plan⁵⁹ adopted in May 2021 specifically address pollution aspects of the European Green Deal. In parallel, the New Industrial Strategy for Europe⁶⁰ further emphasises the potential role of transformative technologies. Other particularly relevant policies for this initiative include the ‘Fit for 55’ package⁶¹ , the Methane Strategy⁶² and the Glasgow methane pledge⁶³ , the Climate Adaptation Strategy⁶⁴ , the Biodiversity Strategy⁶⁵ , the Farm to Fork strategy⁶⁶ and the Sustainable Products Initiative⁶⁷. Besides, as part of the EU response to the 2022 Russia-Ukraine war, REPowerEU⁶⁸ proposes a Joint European Action to support the diversification of energy supplies, accelerate the transition to renewable energy and improve energy efficiency.

Recital 2

Text proposed by the Commission

(2) The European Green Deal announced a revision of Union measures to address pollution from large industrial installations, including reviewing the sectoral scope of the legislation and how to make it fully consistent with climate, energy and circular economy policies. In addition, the Zero Pollution Action Plan, the Circular Economy Action Plan and the Farm to Fork Strategy also call for reducing pollutant emissions at source, including sources not currently within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council⁶⁹. Addressing pollution from certain agro-industrial activities thus requires their inclusion within the scope of that Directive.

(3) The Union’s extractive industry is key to achieving the aims of the European Green Deal and the EU industrial strategy, including its update. Raw materials are of strategic importance for the digital and green transition, the energy, materials and circular economy transformation and to strengthen EU economic resilience. In order to achieve these objectives, sustainable domestic capacities need to be further developed. This requires effective, tailored and harmonised measures to ensure that the best available techniques are established and employed, thus applying processes that are both the most efficient and have the lowest possible impacts on human health and the environment . The governance mechanisms of Directive 2010/75/EU that closely associate industry experts to the development of consensual and tailored environmental requirements will support the sustainable growth of those activities in the Union. The development and availability of commonly agreed standards will level the Union’s playing field while ensuring a high level of protection of human health and the environment. It is therefore appropriate to include those activities within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU.

Recital 4

Text proposed by the Commission

(4) Rearing of pigs, poultry and cattle cause significant pollutant emissions into the air and water. In order to reduce such pollutant emissions, including ammonia, methane, nitrates and greenhouse gas emissions and thereby improve air, water and soil quality, it is necessary to lower the threshold above which pigs and poultry installations are included within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU and to include also cattle farming within that scope. Relevant BAT requirements take into consideration the nature, size, density and complexity of these installations, including the specificities of pasture based cattle rearing systems, where animals are only seasonally reared in indoor installations, and the range of environmental impacts they may have. The proportionality requirements in BATs aim to incentivise farmers to implement the necessary transition towards increasingly environmentally friendly
agricultural practices.

Amendment

(4) Animal farming, especially the rearing of pigs, poultry and cattle cause significant pollutant emissions into the air, soil and water and severe damage to the climate. In order to reduce such pollutant emissions, including ammonia, methane, nitrates and greenhouse gas emissions and thereby improve air, water and soil quality, the number of farmed animals should be reduced drastically, additionally, it is crucial to lower the threshold above which pigs and poultry installations are included within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU and it is inevitable to include cattle farming within that scope to meet the commitments made under the Global Methane Pledge. The establishment and expansion of industrial livestock installations shall not be granted a permit. Relevant BAT requirements take into consideration the nature, size, density and complexity of these installations, including the specificities of pasture based cattle rearing systems, where animals are only seasonally reared in indoor installations, animal welfare and the range of environmental impacts they may have. The proportionality requirements in BATs aim to incentivise farmers to implement the necessary transition towards increasingly environmentally and animal friendlier agricultural practices, with emphasis on the protein transition. BAT requirements should be consulted with environmental and animal NGOs on a regular basis.

Amendment 8
Anja Hazekamp

Proposal for a directive
Recital 15

Text proposed by the Commission

(15) Providing a high level of protection of human health and the environment as a whole requires inter alia the establishment in permits of emission limit values at a level that ensures compliance with the applicable emission levels associated with the best available techniques set out in the BAT conclusions. Emission levels associated with the best available techniques (BAT-AELs) are usually expressed as ranges, rather than as single values, to reflect the differences within a given type of installations that result in variations in the environmental performances achieved when applying BAT. For example, a given BAT will not deliver the same performance for different installations, some BATs may not be suitable for use in certain installations, or a combination of BATs may be more effective on some pollutants or environmental media than others. The achievement of a high level of protection of human health and the environment as a whole has been jeopardised by the practice of setting emission limit values at the laxest end of the range of emission levels associated with the best available techniques, without considering the potential of a given installation to achieve lower emission levels through the application of best available techniques. Such practice discourages frontrunners from implementing more effective techniques, and hinders the achievement of a level-playing field at a high level of protection of human health and the environment. Competent authorities should therefore be required to set in permits the lowest possible emission limit values which reflect the performance of BAT for the specific installations, taking into consideration the whole range of BAT-AELs and aiming at the best environmental performance possible for the installations; unless the operator demonstrates that applying best available techniques as described in the BAT conclusions only allows the concerned installation to meeting less strict emission limit values.

Amendment

(15) Providing a high level of protection of human and animal health and welfare, biodiversity and the environment as a whole requires inter alia the establishment in permits of emission limit values at a level that ensures compliance with the applicable emission levels associated with the best available techniques set out in the BAT conclusions. Emission levels associated with the best available techniques (BAT-AELs) are usually expressed as ranges, rather than as single values, to reflect the differences within a given type of installations that result in variations in the environmental performances achieved when applying BAT. For example, a given BAT will not deliver the same performance for different installations, some BATs may not be suitable for use in certain installations, or a combination of BATs may be more effective on some pollutants or environmental media than others. Before considering the potential of a given installation to achieve lower emission levels through the application of best available techniques, effects on nature, environment and the health and welfare of humans and animals will be thoroughly assessed. Technological and other solutions with the aim of reducing emissions from animal farming, such as permanent indoor housing, air scrubbers and low-emission stable floors that require a significant investment from farmers will not fall under best available techniques. Such practices hinder the achievement of a level-playing field at a high level of protection of human and animal health and welfare, biodiversity and the environment. Competent authorities should therefore be required to set in permits the lowest possible emission limit values which reflect the performance of BAT for the specific installations, taking into consideration the whole range of BAT-AELs and aiming at the best environmental performance possible for the installations.

Recital 27

Text proposed by the Commission

(27) In light of the high number of rearing installations that should be included within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU, and the relative simplicity of the processes and emissions patterns of such installations, it is appropriate to set out specific administrative procedures for issuing permits and for the operation of the relevant activities which are adapted to the sector, without prejudice to requirements related to public information and participation, montoring
and compliance.

Amendment

(27) In light of the additional rearing installations that should be included within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU, and the relative simplicity of the processes and emissions patterns of such installations, it is appropriate to set out specific administrative procedures for extensive installations with a significantly lower number and density of animals for issuing permits and for the operation of the relevant activities which are adapted to the sector, without prejudice to requirements related to public information and participation, monitoring and compliance. All other installations within the scope of Directive 2010/75/EU will follow the requirements set out in Article 11 regarding the general principles governing the basic obligations of the operator and Article 12 regarding the applications for permits.
