sch.2-sec.7Chemical manufacturing

### sch.2-sec.7 Chemical manufacturing Chemical manufacturing (the relevant activity ) consists of any of the following activities— manufacturing a total of 200m 3 or more of coating, food additives, industrial polish, sealant, synthetic dye, pigment, ink, adhesives or paint in a year; manufacturing a total of 200t or more of chemicals, other than chemicals mentioned in paragraph (a) , in a year; using in the manufacturing process a total of 200t or more of chemicals as feedstock in a year. The relevant activity does not include— mixing non-combustible or non-flammable chemicals or chemical products that are not dangerous goods by diluting the chemicals or chemical products with water only; or blending ethanol with petrol; or manufacturing chemicals for carrying out an activity to which another section applies. In the following table, the aggregate environmental score, if any, for the relevant activity is the score stated opposite the threshold within which the relevant activity is carried out.
