Correction Slip 2

These Regulations implement Directive 2011/92/EU on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (O.J. L 26, 28.1.2012, p. 1), and amendments made to that Directive by Directive 2014/52/EU (O.J. L 124, 25.4.2014, p. 1), for projects that fall under Schedules 1, 2 and 3 of these Regulations. These are projects related to offshore oil and gas exploration and production, offshore gas unloading and storage, and offshore capture and storage of carbon dioxide. The Directives were previously implemented for such projects by the Offshore Petroleum Production and Pipe-lines (Assessment of Environmental Effects) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/360) and its amending instruments. These Regulations consolidate and replace S.I. 1999/360, and also make changes to the previous regime.
