Filter Placement- EMS role on it

I would like to understand something specific. After analyzing the significant environmental aspects and knowing the associated environmental impacts, I found, for example, that there are gas emissions and they need a filter. Is the EMS responsible for suggesting the placement or use of a filter? At what stage of the environmental management system can this proposal be placed? Is it in the planning stage or the operating stage?

I think that there may be different answers as a function of the specific situation.

You determined environmental aspects and impacts. Then, you evaluated their significance and concluded that the situation needs to be improved. (Clause 6.1.2)
 
So, something needs to be done to improve current situation. Someone, or a group may study different alternatives and conclude that using a filter will be the best solution. Next steps are about what needs to be done to finance, acquire, install, and text the solution. (Clause 6.1.4)
 
Answering your question this is done at the planning stage.
