Service Description

Process flow

  • The project sponsor must give at least six weeks' notice of the construction or significant modification of a facility for handling substances hazardous to water.

  • The water authority examines the documents. It may temporarily or permanently prohibit the project or issue a notice with conditions.

Competent authority

The lower water authorities at the locally responsible district office or the locally responsible independent city are responsible.

The plant must comply with the requirements of the Ordinance on Plants Handling Substances Hazardous to Water (AwSV). This must be proven with the documents to be submitted.

Which documents are required?

  • completed notification form
  • detailed documents describing the project (site plan, drawings, proofs, descriptions)
  • if necessary, expert opinion

What are the fees?

The amount of the fee is determined by the Thuringian administrative cost regulations for the area of responsibility of the Ministry for the Environment, Energy and Nature Conservation. The fee amount depends on the type of plant and the associated inspection effort. The fee range extends from €60 to €2,500.

What deadlines do I have to pay attention to?

  • The developer must give at least six weeks' notice of the construction or substantial modification.
  • If an installation requires a suitability determination, construction may only take place after this has been granted.

Processing duration

  • The processing of a complaint takes on average one month.
  • If the documents are complete,
  • no other procedure such as a suitability determination or exemption in the water protection or flood area results from it, and
  • no conditions are imposed by the water authority in the form of a decision,
  • the project can be carried out after the expiry of the six-week period (fictitious approval).
  • If the project is the subject of another procedure, e.g. according to the Federal Immission Control Act, the notification according to § 40 AwSV does not apply if the project is examined within the framework of the other procedure. In this case, the six-week period does not apply.
