Proof of disposal privileged procedure

    Are you subject to the obligation to provide proof of hazardous waste and must obtain a certificate of disposal? If your disposal company is approved for the privileged procedure, your proof becomes valid under federal law without official confirmation.

    Description

    The disposal, i.e. the recovery or disposal including the collection and transport of hazardous waste, is subject to a verification procedure under waste law. Waste producers as well as holders, transporters, collectors and disposers of hazardous waste are obliged to do so. This does not apply to private households and small volume producers who do not generate more than two tonnes of hazardous waste per year.

    If the disposal company is approved for the privileged procedure, your proof becomes valid under federal law without official confirmation. As a rule, these disposal companies are specialist waste disposal companies and have been given an exemption number for the privileged procedure.

    Competent office

    According to § 19 paragraph 1 sentence 1 of the Hessian Implementation Act to the Closed Substance Cycle Management Act, the competent authority in Hesse is the locally responsible regional council.
