Recital 11
Recital 11
(11) In order to take into account certain specific circumstances, competent authorities should be able to grant derogations to allow emission limit values tolay down emission limit values or equivalent parameters or technical measures resulting in emission levels that may exceed the emission levels associated with the best available techniques as described in the BAT reference documents. Such derogations should be based on well defined criteria and should not exceed emission limit values set out in this Directive.

Recital 23
Recital 23
(23) In order to ensure that the operation of an installation does not deteriorate the quality of soil and groundwater, it is necessary to establish, through a baseline report, the state of soil and groundwater contamination. The baseline report should be a practical tool that permits, as far as possible, a quantified comparison between the state of the site described in that report and the state of the site upon definitive cessation of activities, in order to ascertain whether a significant increase in pollution of soil or groundwater has taken place. The baseline report should therefore contain information making use of existing data on soil and groundwater measurements and historical data related to past uses of the site.

Recital 24
(24) In accordance with the polluter pays principle, when assessing the level of significance of the pollution of soil and groundwater caused by the operator which would trigger the obligation to return the site to the state described in the baseline report, Member States should take into account the permit conditions that have applied over the lifetime of the activity concerned, the pollution prevention measures adopted for the installation, and the relative increase in pollution compared to the contamination load identified in the baseline report. Liability regarding pollution not caused by the operator is a matter for relevant national law and, where applicable, other relevant Union law. Future new or revised EU legislation on soil and groundwater protection should be drafted without prejudice to the provisions of this Directive.
