Apply for exemption from the record-keeping or register obligations for waste management operators
Description
You must document the proper disposal of waste. To this end, the Closed Substance Cycle Waste Management Act regulates obligations to keep records and registers.
The obligations to keep records and registers do not apply to waste generated in private households.
You or your company must keep records and registers if you
- generate,
- collect,
- transport or
- dispose of it
This applies to
- hazardous waste
- non-hazardous waste containing POPs
You or your company are also subject to the obligation to register if you
- broker or trade in hazardous waste or
- dispose of non-hazardous waste as an operator of facilities.
You can apply for exemption from the obligation to keep records or register.
Whether an exemption from verification or registration obligations can be granted is a discretionary decision by the competent authority.
You or your company can only be granted this exemption if there is no reason to fear any detriment to the public interest. In principle, there is a great public interest in keeping records and registers. The authority will therefore check whether your application does not conflict with this interest.
