The scope of the testing concerns the OGM bio-filters, specifically the testing of bioaerosols emitted from the stacks as a by-product of waste processing activities. The testing criteria considers the total bacteria, fungi, and ambient levels emitted in accordance with the Environment Agency's Technical Guidance M9.

Testing is typically carried out on a three-monthly basis although there may be a requirement for some ad-hoc testing.
