LEGAL DEFINITIONS
Waste means any substance or object which the
holder discards or intends or is required to
discard (2008/98) Hazardous waste means waste
which displays one or more of the hazardous
properties listed in Annex III PROPERTIES OF
WASTE WHICH RENDER IT HAZARDOUS (2008/98)
dangerous substance means any substance that has
been or will be classified as dangerous in
Directive 67/548/EEC as amended heavy metal
means any compound of antimony, arsenic, cadmium,
chromium (VI), copper, lead, mercury, nickel,
selenium, tellurium, thallium and tin, including
these metals in metallic form, as far as these
are classified as dangerous substances.
(00/532) If a waste is identified as hazardous
by a specific or general reference to dangerous
substances, the waste is hazardous only if the
concentrations of those substances are such (i.e.
percentage by weight) that the waste presents one
or more of the properties listed in Annex III to
Council Directive 91/689/EEC. As regards H3 to
H8, H10 and H11, Article 2 of this Decision
applies. For the characteristics H1, H2, H9 and
H12 to H14 Article 2 of the present Decision does
not provide specifications at present.

penetrate the skin, may induce cancer or increase
its incidence. H 8 Corrosive substances and
preparations which may destroy living tissue on
contact. H 9 Infectious substances and
preparations containing viable micro-organisms or
their toxins which are known or reliably believed
to cause disease in man or other living
organisms. H 10 Toxic for reproduction
substances and preparations which, if they are
inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the

PERMIT AND REGISTRATION
Issue of permits (ART. 23 08/98) 1. Member States
shall require any establishment or undertaking
intending to carry out waste treatment to obtain
a permit from the competent authority. 2.
Permits may be granted for a specified period and
may be renewable. 3. Where the competent
authority considers that the intended method of
treatment is unacceptable from the point of view
of environmental protection, in particular when
the method is not in accordance with Article 13,
it shall refuse to issue the permit. 4. It shall
be a condition of any permit covering
incineration or co-incineration with energy
recovery that the recovery of energy take place
with a high level of energy efficiency. 5.
Provided that the requirements of this Article
are complied with, any permit produced pursuant
to other national or Community legislation may be
combined with the permit required under paragraph
1 to form a single permit, where such a format
obviates the unnecessary duplication of
information and the repetition of work by the
operator or the competent authority.

• Environment Protection Act
• All entities performing generation or/and
  treatment or transportation of industrial or/and
  hazardous waste, excluded hazardous waste
  generated from households.
• 1. Issued with license according article 54 of
  Waste Management Act
• 2. Issued with permit according article 37 of
  WMA, or
• 3. IPPC permit according issued pursuant to the
  procedure referred to in Chapter seven, Section
  II of the Environment Protection Act (EPA).

• REPORTIN AN REVIEWING
• Every three years, Member States shall inform the
  Commission of the implementation of this
  Directive by submitting a sectoral report in an
  electronic form. This report shall also contain
  information on the management of waste oil and on
  the progress achieved in the implementation of
  the waste prevention programmes and, as
  appropriate, information on measures as foreseen
  by Article 8 on extended producer responsibility.
• The report shall be drawn up on the basis of a
  questionnaire or outline established by the
  Commission in accordance with the procedure
  referred to in Article 6 of Council Directive
  91/692/EEC of 23 December 1991 standardising and
  rationalising reports on the implementation of
  certain Directives relating to the environment
  27. The report shall be submitted to the
  Commission within nine months of the end of the
  three year period covered by it.
• 2. The Commission shall send the questionnaire or
  outline to the Member States six months before
  the start of the period covered by the sectoral
  report.
• 3. The Commission shall publish a report on the
  implementation of this Directive within nine
  months of receiving the sectoral reports from the
  Member States in accordance with paragraph 1.
• 4. In the first report that intervenes by 12
  December 2014, the Commission shall review the
  implementation of this Directive, including the
  energy efficiency provisions, and will present a
  proposal for revision if appropriate. The report
  shall also assess the existing Member State waste
  prevention programmes, objectives and indicators
  and shall review the opportunity of Community
  level programmes, including producer
  responsibility schemes for specific waste
  streams, targets, indicators and measures related
  to recycling, as well as material and energy
  recovery operations that may contribute to
  fulfilling the objectives set out in Articles 1
  and 4 more effectively.

CONTROL OF HAZARDOUS WASTE

• QUALITY REPORT 2009
• The Bulgarian waste management legislation
  authorizes the RIEWs to perform annual check
  controls over all entities (at least but not
  limited to one check per year)
• All entities performing generation and/or
  treatment or transportation of industrial and/or
  hazardous waste, should fill in and keep on the
  site the so called Report book in line with the
  requirements of Ordinance No.9
• The ExEA is the institution authorized to
  summarize and disseminate all the data on
  hazardous waste at national level. The
  summarizing process includes historical survey
  and cross checking of the data reported from
  different stakeholders (collectors, treatment
  installations, disposal facilities and etc.).

Art. 17 2008/98 Member States shall take the
necessary action to ensure that the production,
collection and transportation of hazardous waste,
as well as its storage and treatment, are carried
out in conditions providing protection for the
environment and human health in order to meet the
provisions of Article 13, including action to
ensure traceability from production to final
destination and control of hazardous waste in
order to meet the requirements of Articles 35
(Record keeping) and 36 (Enforcement and
penalties)
