Infrastructure Provision and Residential Developments: Discussion

Let us say a wastewater facility gets planning permission and then applies to the EPA for a wastewater discharge licence or whatever. Is there a difficulty for the EPA in granting a licence for something that does not have full planning permission? The planning process could alter the size of the wastewater infrastructure or make alterations. If the EPA has already granted a licence based on what might be submitted to a planning process, does that mean it would have to go back to the drawing board? How are all those issues squared out?
