<p>Upon receiving an application for a carbon dioxide storage permit, the North Sea
Transition Authority (NSTA) is required by law to ensure (amongst other requirements)
that the storage complex and surrounding area have been sufficiently characterised
and assessed to ensure there is no significant risk of leakage, or of harm to the
environment or human health. As part of the storage permit application, the operator
will be required to set out a monitoring plan to demonstrate conformance and containment,
detection, and measurement of a significant irregularity or leakage event.</p>
