Note 1: If no information is reported, please indicate the reasons in the remarks field at the bottom of the table (e.g. no IPPC-installations of this category in the Member States, no IPPC
permit issued so far, no emissions to certain media). If an installation consists of more than one activity under the Annex I or an activity has several emission sources with different
ELVs, please report ELVs for each activity/emission source in a separate ELV table. The identification code (e.g. a number, a letter) used to designate the permit should enable the
Member States to track the installation concerned if further information is requested by the Commission.
Note 2: Where limit values for other pollutants than those pre-selected in the template are set in the permit, these should be reported by adding to the template. It is noted that these
parameters may be required to be controlled by virtue of legislation such as the waste incineration Directive or by virtue of the Stockholm convention on persistent organic pollutants,
for example.
Please find below some explanations for the expression of several pollutants (compare: Guidance document for EPER implementation, Appendix 3):
- No distinction is made between particulates and total dust.
- PM10 may already occur in several permits for new installations. It means total mass of particulate matter with particle diameters below 10 µm.
- Metals and their compounds can be both metals bound on dust particulates or fugitive metals emissions. Please indicate which type of limit value you use in the permits in the
“remarks” field. Please indicate single metals if you have single metals as emission limit values. If ELVs for metals have been grouped , please specify the grouping in the
pollutants field and report the groups separately.
- NOx means nitrogen monoxide and nitrogen dioxide expressed as nitrogen dioxide.
- VOC means gaseous and vaporous organic compounds, including methane, use the expression NMVOC if methane is excluded.
- TOC means total organic carbon.
- SOx means sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide expressed as sulphur dioxide.
- No Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, please indicate the relevant measurement method (e.g. 16 PAH EPA or sum of 6 Borneff PAH.
- HCl means total inorganic chlorine compounds expressed as HCl.
- HF means total inorganic fluorine compounds expressed as HF.
- PCDD/PCDF means polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans expressed as toxicity equivalent.
- COD means chemical oxygen demand.
- BODn means biological oxygen demand. Indicate the relevant days in the “n”.
Note 3: If there is no representative limit value for a pre-selected pollutant, please indicate this in the “limit value” field with a “none”. If emissions of these pollutants are prevented or
reduced by prescribing technical measures rather than setting emission limit values, please indicate this in the “remarks” field. If the limit values applied are generally expressed as loads
(e.g. t/day), these should be converted to a format that is “independent” of the size of the installation, such as concentration (e.g. g/l) or a specific emission (e.g. kg/t product). If this is
not possible, please indicate this as “nc elv” (non-convertible emission limit value). If no data is available, please indicate it with “n.a.”.
If a particular limit value contained in the permit is not yet in force by the end of the reporting period but it has to be met in a fixed year (e.g. 2007), such a value should also be reported,
to the extent that it is representative, together with an appropriate remark.
13
Note 4: It is important to define the unit of each limit value in the “unit” field. Possible units are concentrations (mg/m³, mg/l, etc.), efficiency (e.g. % reduction/conversion), specific
emission data like the mass, expressed in terms of certain specific parameters (e.g. kg/t output). It is not appropriate to use the unit mass/time (e.g. kg/y, tonnes/d) because these limit
values are site-specific.
Note 5: Indicate the time period the ELVs is related to. For instance the ELVs could refer to the following time period (please use the abbreviation as below):
DAV
HHAV
HAV
YAV
daily average value
half hourly average value
hourly average value
yearly average value
Note 6: If there are any references to certain conditions for those limit values, e.g. certain oxygen content in the exhaust gas, there is a possibility to indicate this in the “reference
conditions” field of the limit value. In case of insufficient space in the table letters or numbers can again be used and explained at the bottom of the table or on an additional page.
Each reported limit value can be specified or explained in more detail in the “remarks” field, e.g. validity for water emission limit values only for direct water discharges or only for a
certain unit in the installation or for certain capacities. It is crucial to mention those restrictions of reported limit values. Please use the “remarks” field for instance if the limit value is
only valid for a specific unit of the installation, e.g. only for the combustion unit of an installation.
Note 7: To improve comparability it is important to indicate how limit values are expressed with the link to how they should be monitored. In the field “monitoring” give an indication
on the frequency and the duration of the sampling. For instance, it could be one 24 hours sampling each month to check the compliance with a Yearly Average Value or continuous
sampling. Please provide information if the monitoring is carried out before abatement. When describing the frequency and the duration, please use the following abbreviation:
C
P
Calc
continuous measurement method including continuous sampling
periodical measurement method (please specify in this case)
calculation method using consumption of raw materials
Note 8: The field “enforcement rule” refers to the rules used by competent authorities to determine, on the basis of the monitoring carried out, the compliance of the installations with
the limit values set up in the permits (e.g. 4 samples below ELV out of 5, percentage of samples below the ELVs).
Note 9: The field “Limit Values derived from” asks for information about where the respective limit value is derived from. Further explanations can be provided as a remark at the
bottom of the table.

One possibility is that on national level general binding rules exist with fixed limit values for this sector and this pollutant. Please use GBR as abbreviation and give a reference to
this rule at the bottom of the page. If there are several of them, please add a number like GBR1. Please mention here, if possible, the techniques that can achieve the limit value.

In those sectors where the limit values are derived from finalised BREFs please use the expression BREF and mention, if possible, the techniques that can achieve the limit value.

Where the limit values are derived from national BAT documents please use the expression NBAT and mention, if possible, the techniques that can achieve the limit value.

If the limit value was set based on international sources like OSPAR decisions use INT as abbreviation. Please indicate the source at the bottom of the page.
14

Another possibility is that a certain experience using a special technique was the reason for the limit value (e.g. special abatement techniques or primary measures, etc). Then use
EXP as the abbreviation and explain it at the bottom of the page. This abbreviation could be used as well if the limit value is the result of an expert judgement.

Last possibility is any other reason. Please use OTH as abbreviation and explain it at the bottom of the page.
Note 10: in this field, useful information can be reported if possible on the performance ranges of the installation concerned during the reporting period compared to the limit values set
in the permit. Performance should be reported using the same units and time periods as for ELVs. It is then useful to indicate the techniques applied to reach this level of performance.
For the best performing installations Member States are invited to supply specific information on any special drivers for achieving the level of environmental performance and the
economics associated with these installations in order to supply useful information to follow developments in BAT.
Note 11: In order to illustrate the trends across the EU resulting from the implementation of IPPC Directive, Member States are invited to indicate the previous ELVs (if any) set for the
installation concerned as well as the time frame of these previous ELVs. Please indicate in the remarks field at the bottom of the table if different units, time period, monitoring
frequency and duration were established for the previous ELVs.
