This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to have an environmental permit when you:

• collect and store biogas from on-farm manure and slurry lagoons and tanks
• upgrade this biogas to biomethane

However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action when you do this without an environmental permit if you comply with the requirements in this RPS.

This enforcement position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
