Dutch term or phrase: omgevingsvergunning milieu

We recently had the term "omgevingsvergunning" here (http://goo.gl/JpgmZ), and for that term I've been using the answer supplied by FionaT with a contribution from Sindy: "integrated physical environment permit". Corroborated by the OECD, so a top answer, I thought. Now I've hit a slight problem though:

"Door het wijzigingsbesluit agrarische activiteiten worden ruim 55.000 inrichtingen onder de werking van het Activiteitenbesluit gebracht. Het betreft 5805 inrichtingen waarvoor de vergunningplicht volledig komt te vervallen en algemene regels gaan gelden. Voor 6435 inrichtingen wordt ***de omgevingsvergunning milieu*** vervangen door een beperkte ***omgevingsvergunning*** milieu in combinatie met algemene regels."

Integrated physical environment permit for environmental aspects?? Or is this juxtaposition of two "environments" an unhappy one?

FionaT originally commented (and rightly so IMO) that the use of "physical environment" moves nicely away from the "milieu" connotation, but the answer I'm looking for needs more than just a connotation of environment. Should I perhaps linguistically prune the answer to a more intuitive and intelligible "environmental permit", leaving the integrated nature of the permit by the wayside?

All thoughts appreciated!

omgevingsvergunning (beperkte) milieu(toets) Integrated Environmental Permit with Limited Environmental Impact Assessment Procedure

Explanation:
Milieubeoordelingsprocedure (toets) - environmental impact assessment procedure

Where before for each part of any undertaking separate permits (single environmental permits) were needed, the new system allows for a single application and a joint permit (umbrella permit), saving, for instance, businesses time and money.
