4.4.4 General Environmental - Summary
For the notional feasibility study it is important to understand that any shale gas development program
in the Netherlands must comply with Dutch regulations for air quality, noise and lighting. The
cumulative emissions (all media) of all equipment used and activities performed during the exploration
and completion phases of the project must be taken into account. Plans must be implemented to
ensure that standards are met.
The same is true for any production facilities that would be built to support the collection, processing,
shipment and sales of shale gas within the Netherlands. The Dutch regulations must be the basis (as a
minimum standard) for the engineering standards for any surface equipment and facilities.
Any contractors brought on-site should be aware of the Dutch regulations and broader European
standards for equipment being used throughout Europe.
