Preliminary decision on a plant requiring a permit in accordance with the Federal Immission Control Act (BImSchG)
If you submit an application for a preliminary decision on an installation requiring a permit, the competent authority should approve it under certain conditions.
Description
After your application for a preliminary decision, the competent authority decides on individual approval requirements as well as on the location of the plant.
If the effects of the planned installation can be adequately assessed and there is a legitimate interest in issuing a preliminary decision, the competent authority should issue a preliminary decision. The preliminary decision becomes invalid if you have not applied for approval within two years.
