Environmental Health Procedures (Clay's Library of Health and the Environment)

Extensively revised and updated, Environmental Health Procedures, 6th Edition is back with the very latest practical guidance for the implementation and enforcement of legislation relating to environmental health. This new edition identifies and cross-references procedures relating to the ever growing facets of environmental health practice and presents them as clear, unambiguous flow charts and diagrams with narrative about each procedure. Major updates include the interpretation of the IPPC regime in the Pollution Prevention and Control Act 1999 and its 2000 Regulations along with new guidance and legislation on contaminated land, air quality management, anti-social behaviour orders, licensing of butcher's shops, fishery products and live shellfish, and the changes to house renovation introduced by the Regulatory Reform Regulations 2002. In addition, there is a new introductory chapter describing the context in which this legislation is to be enforced, including the national framework of Best Value. This will be essential reading for all Environmental Health Officers and students and a valuable reference for all whose responsibilities demand they keep abreast of current environmental health practices.
