Basic information
Do you want to construct, operate or modify an installation that does not require a permit and is part of the operating area or is part of an operating area? Then you need a permit if the effects are relevant to an incident.
Does the competent authority determine that your project has an impact relevant to major accidents when examining your previous notification of an accident-relevant construction or modification? Then you also need a permit.
These projects can lead to a significant increase in risk from the installation as a result of the construction or modification or other immission law requirements can no longer be guaranteed.
