If the person responsible has prepared a summary report, but not a risk report and if the circumstances change significantly thereafter or relevant new findings become available, they must amend the summary report and resubmit it to the enforcement authority.
If the person responsible has prepared a risk report and the circumstances change significantly thereafter or relevant new findings become available, they must:
1. amend the risk report and resubmit it to the enforcement authority;
2. amend the summary report instead of the risk report and resubmit it to the enforcement authority if:
1. serious harm to the public or to the environment from major accidents need no longer be expected, 2. in the case of transport routes and pipeline installations, the probability of a major accident causing serious harm is sufficiently low.
