COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 255/2013

of 20 March 2013

amending, for the purposes of adaptation to scientific and technical progress, Annexes IC, VII and VIII to Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on shipments of waste

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2006 on shipments of waste (1), and in particular Article 58(1) thereof,

Whereas:

 

(1)

Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 specifies under which conditions the shipment of wastes listed in either Annex IIIA or IIIB to that Regulation is subject to the procedure of prior written notification and consent. The submission of a notification requires completion of the notification and movement documents as set out in Annexes IA and IB to that Regulation. Wastes listed in Annex IIIA, IIIB or IVA to Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 can be identified in Block 14 of Annex IA or Annex IB, under subheading (vi) ‘Other (specify)’. Annex IC to that Regulation, providing specific instructions for completing either Annex IA or IB needs to be amended in order to clarify how those wastes should be indicated in Annex IA or IB.

 

(2)

Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 also specifies under which conditions wastes listed in Annexes IIIA and IIIB to that Regulation need to be accompanied by the document contained in Annex VII to that Regulation when these wastes are intended for shipment. As Block 10 of Annex VII does not provide the option to identify wastes listed in Annexes IIIA and IIIB, such wastes cannot be properly identified in Annex VII. The inclusion of wastes in Annexes IIIA and IIIB necessitates the expansion of the options listed in Block 10 of Annex VII.

 

(3)

At the tenth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal which took place from 17 to 21 October 2011, technical guidelines and guidance documents on environmentally sound management were adopted. Following their adoptions, Annex VIII to Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 needs to be updated accordingly.

 

(4)

Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 should therefore be amended accordingly.

 

(5)

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 39 of Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives (2),

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 is amended as follows:

 

(1)

Annex IC is amended in accordance with Annex I to this Regulation;

 

(2)

Annex VII is replaced by the text set out in Annex II to this Regulation;

 

(3)

Annex VIII is replaced by the text set out in Annex III to this Regulation.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 20 March 2013.
