Plan SubmissionSubmission Procedure
• Developer/QPs applies to CBPU and obtains clearance on the use of industrial land
• QPs apply for SIP/DIP
• QPs submission for DC/BP,
• Specialist consultants to carry out QRA/PCS and submit DPs on PCE
Industrial Allocation
• Application for approval of location and type of industrial development
• Sited in designated industrial estates and compatible with the surrounding land use
• Siting requirements for industries and pollution control requirements are contained in the Code of Practice on Pollution Control
Industrial Allocation
• To facilitate evaluation, prospective industrialists shall complete the IA application form available online in CBPU’s Industrial Allocation System (IAS) at website address
http://ias.nea.gov.sg/PublicApplicant/Homepage.aspx
Application for Sewerage and Drainage Information
• QPs apply for sewerage and drainage information related to their development site
• Sewerage Interpretation Plan (SIP) indicates the location and alignments of public sewers
• Drainage Interpretation Plan (DIP) indicates drainage reserves or land safeguarded for future drainage schemes
• Minimum Platform Level (MPL)
• Building Height Constraint, Health & Safety buffer, MRT setback, noise contour for airbase, nuisance buffer from industries etc.
Development Control CBPU check building plan layout for
compliance with the following:
• Adequate setbacks between MRT above ground and residential buildings
• Do not encroach into public sewers/pumping mains/drainage reserves/common drain
• MPL, nuisance/H&S buffer, building height constraint etc.
Building Plans and Detailed Plans
• QP shall prepare building plans (BPs) on PC and EH and details plans (DPs) on Sewerage and Drainage in compliance with NEA’s and PUB’s Codes of Practice
• BP on EH and DPs on SEW/DRA are registered without checking based on QP declaration
• CBPU checks BP plans on pollution control because of health & safety impact by industries
Application for TOP Upon completion of building works on
sewerage/sanitary system and/or pollution control equipment/measures
• QP submit TOP application to CBPU with the necessary certificate of completion and inspection
• CBPU conduct inspection on PC equipment/measures for compliance.
• CBPU issue TOP clearance after ensuring compliance of building works with approve BP and DP
Application for CSC• TOP requirements are met
• Certificate of Supervision/Completion on related building works for EH matter/and surface water drainage system has been submitted to CBPU
• CBPU issue CSC clearance after ensuring building works compliance with approve BP and DP
Pre-consultation Sessions for QPs
• QPs may walk in to consult CBPU on the preparation of building plans for clarification/waiver of technical requirement/procedure from Monday to Friday morning (9 am to 12 noon)
• Besides the pre-consultation sessions, QPs can also contact CBPU officers via telephone/email for consultation.
• The contact number, email of CBPU officers are available at website address

Procedural mistakes QPs did not follow the submission
procedures
• Did not consult and obtain IA clearance
• Did not apply SIP/DIP before submitting DC
• Did not obtain DC clearance before submitting BP
Procedural mistakes
• Did not obtain technical assessment reports on noise etc as specified in the BP clearance before TOP/CSC clearance
• Did not submit certificate of completion and inspection for SEW/DRA during TOP/CSC application
Common MistakesDC Plan
• Did not declare activities to be carried out
• Did not indicate whether the building height is affected by BHC
• Did not indicate the proposed dormitory affected by H&S buffer
• Did not indicate the setback from MRT track above ground
Common MistakesDC Plan
• Did not indicate the nuisance buffer
• Did not indicate the trade effluent treatment plant on submission layout
Common MistakesBP Submission - General
• The use of the respective areas not indicated
• The sources of trade effluent generation, air
pollution & noise emission not indicated
Chemical/Oil Bulk Storage Tanks
To be highlighted on BP and labelled
Elevated storage tank not provided with measures to contain a shooting jet of chemical/oil escaping from a leak/rupture in the tank.
To be highlighted on BP and labelled
Location of the bulk storage tanks and secondary containment not indicated on BP
To submit calculationsNo calculations showing that secondary containment can contain the capacity of the largest tank
AdviceError
Chemical Warehouses
To be indicated / labeled on BPThe floor of the warehouse is not
coated with a layer of chemical-
resistant material
To be indicated/labeled on BPFail to indicate the goods/materials
stored in the warehouse
To highlighted on BP and labelledSeparate compartments not
provided for the storage of
substances that can react
dangerously with one another
AdviceError
Fuel Burning Equipment
To be highlighted on BP and labelled
Locations of fuel burning equipment and chimney not indicated on plan
To submit calculations for chimney height taking account of the heights of building in the vicinity
Calculations for chimney height not provided
A list of equipment, type of fuel used and fuel consumption rate to be submitted
Information on fuel burning equipment not submitted
AdviceError
Air Pollution Control
To be highlighted on BP and labelled
Proposed air pollution control equipment eg scrubber etc not indicated or highlighted on BP
To ensure safe dispersion, the minimum height of an exhaust stack is 3m above roof or 15m above ground level whichever is higher
Exhaust stack does not terminate above roof of a building or meet the minimum height requirement stipulated in COPPC
Explanatory notes would help us understand the effectiveness of the proposed treatment system
No explanatory notes on proposed air pollution control equipment submitted
AdviceError
Common MistakesBP Submission – DP on PCE
• Fail to submit technical details of the trade
effluent treatment plant, air pollution control
equipment, fuel burning equipment and its
chimney/exhaust stack for approval before
installation
Trade Effluent Treatment Plant
To be highlighted on BP and labelled
Location of trade effluent treatment plant, pH monitoring system, sampling sump not highlighted on BP
Explanatory notes would help us understand the effectiveness of the proposed treatment system
Explanatory notes on the concept of operation of the trade effluent treatment plant not submitted
AdviceError
Common Issues Raised Water Pollution Control – Chemical/Oil
Storage Tank
• Secondary containment facilities shall be provided to contain accidental release of the entire content of the largest storage tank
• Contaminated rainwater from unsheltered containment facilities shall be collected and treated before discharge into the watercourse
Water Pollution Control
Discharge Limits for public sewer/watercourse
Trade effluent shall be treated to the allowable limits before discharge into a public sewer or watercourse(where public sewers are not availabe).
Trade effluent containing Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) exceeding the allowable limits may be discharged into a public sewer subject to payment of trade effluent fees
Common Issues Raised Air Pollution Control – General requirement
Developments which can generate air impurities, are required to install, operate and maintain air pollution control equipment designed to comply with the allowable emission standards
For air impurities with no prescribed emission standards,
best practical means shall be adopted to minimize air pollution.
Exhaust gases from the pollution control equipment shall
be emitted into the atmosphere through an appropriately designed discharge stack to ensure safe dispersion.
Common Issues RaisedAir Pollution Control – Technical Requirement
• Fuel burning equipment shall be efficiently operated and maintained. The fuel burning equipment shall use fuel cleared by PCD
• A chimney of an approved height shall be provided for the safe dispersion of flue gases from fuel burning equipment
• Sampling ports shall be provided for manual installation of portable sampling equipment. The ports shall be installed such that they are accessible.
