Applying for partial approval for the construction of an installation

Description

If you wish to erect and/or operate a part of an installation which, due to its nature or operation, is particularly likely to cause harmful effects on the environment or otherwise endanger, significantly disadvantage or significantly inconvenience the general public or the neighborhood, you require a partial permit from the competent authority. The authority will check whether there is a legitimate interest in the construction and operation. Once the authority has completed its examination, you will receive a decision in the form of a notification.

Prerequisites

The partial permit is granted if the fulfillment of the obligations arising from the Federal Immission Control Act for the partial project is ensured and no other public law regulations or occupational health and safety concerns conflict with this and a preliminary assessment shows that there are no insurmountable obstacles to the construction and operation of the entire plant from the outset.

Required documents

Required drawings, plans, expert opinions
explanations and
other documents (if necessary, ask the competent authority).

Responsible body

Responsibility lies with the immission control authorities of the districts and independent cities or with the State Administration Office. For matters subject to mining supervision, please contact the State Office for Geology and Mining (LAGB). You can obtain detailed information from the relevant authorities.

Procedure

The approval procedure requires a written application, which must be accompanied by the drawings, plans, expert opinions and explanations as well as other documents required to check the approval requirements.

If your application is complete, it must be published together with the documents and then displayed for one month. In simplified approval procedures or if public participation is waived, there is no public display and no discussion meeting.
At the latest at the same time as the public announcement of the project, the licensing authority shall also request the authorities to be involved to submit their comments on the licensing requirements within one month.
If the approval requirements are met, the authority examines whether there is a legitimate interest in the construction and operation of the sub-project.
A preliminary assessment will determine whether there are no insurmountable obstacles to the construction and operation of the entire facility with regard to the partial approval requirements.
You will receive notification of the approval or rejection of the partial project.

Further information

The binding effect of the provisional overall assessment does not apply if a change in the factual or legal situation or individual inspections in the context of subsequent partial approvals lead to an assessment that deviates from the provisional overall assessment, i.e. the granting of further partial approvals or the overall approval can also be refused.
