Special Waste advisory notes
These give advice clarifying the procedures for consigning
special (hazardous) wastes and also, for certain types of waste,
their potential hazardous properties and how they are
classified in the EWC. Their main purpose is to:
- Assist the determination of whether a waste is special or not
which may not be the case studied in the joint Agencies guidance
WM2 - ‘Interpretation of the Definition and
Classification of Hazardous Waste’. They therefore
complement rather than replace this guidance.
- Assist the preparation and completion of paperwork accompanying
the movement of special (hazardous) wastes, for instance multiple
collections (carrier's rounds) and landed ships' waste. They
therefore complement SEPA's Guide to Consigning
Special Waste
