Public consultation on application to change environmental permit for Hinkley Point B
EDF Energy has applied to the Environment Agency to change (vary) its radioactive substances permit. It is proposing to remove some radionuclide limits in its permit because certain radioisotopes are no longer produced. The proposed changes would more accurately reflect the reducing radiological hazard and risks from Hinkley Point B.
The Environment Agency launched a public consultation on 3rd June 2025 about the content of the application and the supporting documents. The consultation will run until 4th July 2025.
