SCHEDULE 1THE LIST OF WASTES – THE ANNEX TO THE LIST OF WASTES DECISION

“ANNEXList of wastes pursuant to Article 1(a) of Directive 75/442/EEC on waste and Article 1(4) of Directive 91/689/EEC on hazardous waste

Introduction

3.1.  Identify the source generating the waste in chapters 01 to 12 or 17 to 20 and identify the appropriate six-digit code of the waste (excluding codes ending with 99 of these chapters). A specific production unit may need to classify its activities in several chapters. For instance, a car manufacturer may find its wastes listed in chapters 12 (wastes from shaping and surface treatment of metals), 11 (inorganic wastes containing metals from metal treatment and the coating of metals) and 08 (wastes from the use of coatings), depending on the different process steps. Note: separately collected packaging waste (including mixtures of different packaging materials) shall be classified in 15 01, not in 20 01.
