Mr William Bedell has submitted an application to Natural Resources Wales to change the environmental permit for Neuadd Isaf Poultry Farm (permit number EPR/HP3836MG).

This change, termed a ‘variation’, is a legal requirement under the Environmental Permitting Regulations (England and Wales) 2016.

We have assessed the application and are minded to issue the variation. We are now consulting on our draft decision.

Our draft decision

We are minded to grant the permit variation.

The permit includes appropriate conditions to protect human health and the environment.
