Dear readers,
In January 1, 2023, the “Rules for maintaining an automated system for monitoring emissions into the environment during industrial environmental control” dated 22 July 2021 No. 23659 introduces a new requirement for a mandatory automated system for monitoring emissions into the environment (AMS).
ASM is an automated system of production environmental monitoring, that monitors environmental emissions at the main stationary sources of emissions, which provides data transfer to the information system for monitoring emissions to the environment in real time.
Based on the amendments , the installation of the ASM becomes mandatory for all Category I facilities commissioned before July 1, 2021. However, this requirement enters into force in January 1, 2023.
It worth to emphasize that the Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan on Administrative Offences of July 5, 2014 № 235-V provide for administrative liability in the case of an environmental offence.
