REGULATOR FOR ENERGY AND WATER SERVICES

Decision Notice of the 20th June, 2019, Regarding Authorisation No. SS/309 issued in Virtue of the Regulator for Energy and Water Services Act (Cap. 545)

1. Determination

On the 20th June, 2019 the Regulator for Energy and Water services has determined to revoke with immediate effect and as from that date authorisation no. SS309 for the following reason/s:

In February, 2011, Mr Robby Borg (838147M) o.b.o Palm Court Ltd. (C 2677) applied for an Authorisation to operate a secondary storage facility of LPG at Qawra Inn Hotel, Triq it-Tamar in Qawra.  The Authorisation was issued on the 1st June, 2011, with a validity of 10 years. Therefore, the validity of this Authorisation expires on the 31st May, 2021.  The facility was authorised to be equipped with one (1) above ground LPG tank of 1000 litres capacity with serial number 09/RM/150613 (Plinoxotar).

Since then the hotel has closed. The Regulator made several attempts to inform the authorised person to submit the decommissioning report for the installation in caption, however no report was received.

An inspection by REWS officials was thus performed onsite on the 19th November, 2018 and it was confirmed that the authorised tank with serial number 09/RM/150613 (Plinoxotar) was removed from site.

Thus, for the above reasons, the Regulator is hereby revoking the secondary storage authorisation no. SS/309.

This is being done without prejudice to the authorisation fees which remain due to the Regulator for the years 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019 and which amount to €400.

Decision Notice of the 20th June, 2019, Regarding Authorisation No. SS267 issued in Virtue of the Regulator for Energy and Water Services Act (Cap. 545)

1. Determination

On the 20th June, 2019, the Regulator for Energy and Water Services has determined to revoke with immediate effect and as from that date authorisation no. SS267 for the following facts and reason/s:

In January, 2011, Mr Michael Jump (Passport No. 740181110) applied for an Authorisation to operate an LPG secondary storage facility at 'Villa Nina', Triq il-Fortizza in Madliena.  The Authorisation was issued on the 1st January, 2011, with a validity of 10 years. Therefore, the validity of the Authorisation was scheduled to expire on the 31st December, 2021.

In October, 2017, after several attempts to communicate with Mr Michael Jump failed, an inspection was carried out by REWS officers.  Mr Richard Jump (ID No. 151723A), the son of the Authorised Person Mr Michael Jump, verbally informed REWS officers that the latter had passed away.  The LPG tank was found to be still on site and in use. The transfer procedure for the authorisation was explained to Mr Richard Jump.

To date, Mr Richard Jump failed to submit the requested documentation to affect the transfer of the relative autorisation no. SS 267, despite numerous correspondence and a judicial letter having been sent to him to regularise his position.

Since the authorisation has not been transferred from the deceased Mr Michael Jump (Passport No. 740181110) and the necessary steps for the transfer of the authorisation have not been taken, authorisation no. SS267 is being hereby revoked.
