What extra environmental aspects/impacts are there than what is expected for the industry (page 1):

  

 impacts not E Codes 

 

What fewer environmental aspects/impacts are there than what is expected for the industry (page 1):

  

 impacts not E Codes

 

Therefore, what extra E Codes are relevant and which E Codes are not relevant:

Extra:   

Not Relevant:

Do any of the extra E Codes result in a higher or lower Risk Category than previously assessed on page 1 (using WI 39 Annex C as a guide):

 

 subjective assessment – significantly higher/lower risk 

 

 Resultant E Codes:   

Resultant Risk Category:

(Limited, Low, Medium, High)

 

 

 Specialised technical knowledge required:  

 

regarding an impact (eg volatile gasses, explosives, etc)
