    of 26 November 2007

    amending Annexes IA, IB, VII and VIII of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on shipments of waste, for the purposes of taking account of technical progress and changes agreed under the Basel Convention

    (Text with EEA relevance)



    THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

    Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

    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)

    The agreement of the eighth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, 27 November-1 December 2006, necessitates amendments of Annexes IA, IB, VII and VIII of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 on shipments of waste. The amendments concern the replacement of ‘kg’ and ‘litre’ by ‘Tonnes (Mg)’ and ‘m3’ in block 5 of the notification document in Annex IA, blocks 5 and 18 of the movement document in Annex IB and blocks 3 and 14 of the consignment information in Annex VII, the insertion of a new block 17 in the movement document, an amendment of footnote 1 of the consignment information and references to guidelines on environmentally sound management in items I.4-9 of Annex VIII. For the sake of clarity these Annexes should be replaced.

    (2)

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

    (3)

    The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee established by Article 18 of Directive 2006/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council ( 2 ),

    HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

    Article 2

    This Regulation shall enter into force on the third day following 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.
