This revokes and replaces the prior Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) Regulation (EC) No 850/2004 and its amendments. The Regulation has been consolidated primarily for clarity purposes.
The production, placing on the market and use of POPs are prohibited or restricted by the Regulation, and existing POPs and associated wastes are to be regulated with the aim to eliminate POPs or to prevent releases if the former is not possible.
These regulations will amend the Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) Regulations 2007, Environment Act 1995 and Hazardous Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2005 to implement the Recast Persistent Organic Pollutants Regulation (EU) 2019/1021.
Consignee returns submitted by waste recipients to producers or holders of hazardous waste need to state any wastes classed as POPs. References within these returns will need to reflect the 2019 POPs Regulation.
These regulations will amend the Hazardous Waste (Wales) Regulations 2005. Consignee returns submitted by waste recipients to producers or holders of hazardous waste will need to reflect the Recast Persistent Organic Pollutants Regulation (EU) 2019/1021.
Where waste streams received include persistent organic pollutants (POPs) above the respective threshold, the return must state that this material is a POP.
These regulations revise definitions under the landfill tax regime in Wales.
Landfill tax relief may be claimed on further materials used for ‘restoration work’ at authorised landfills or used in refilling quarries and open-cast mines.
This EU Decision identifies 4-Tert-butylphenol (PTBP) as a substance of very high concern (SVHC) under the REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 due to its endocrine disrupting properties.
Once a sunset date is established, the use of this chemical will be prohibited without an appropriate authorisation.
