Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of two major accidents involving the spill of hazardous extractive waste, the Mining Waste Directive 2006/21/EC was adopted at EU level with the aim to prevent, or reduce as far as possible, the adverse effects from extractive waste management on health and the environment. The deadline for transposition of the directive by the Member States expired on 1 May 2008. Research indicates that all Member States (EU-27) have experienced transposition problems in terms of 'timing' or 'quality' or both. It appears that the majority of Member States have adopted the measures needed to implement the provisions of the directive, but the practical implementation of some aspects remains problematic. The quality of available data does not allow for the complete picture of practical implementation of the directive to be fully outlined and assessed. While EU legislation on the management of extractive waste is still relevant to real needs, the levels of effectiveness and efficiency across the EU may vary from one Member State to another. This European Implementation Assessment makes recommendations for action aimed at improving the shortcomings identified.

Book excerpt: The Directive 2006/21/EC on the treatment of waste from the extractive industries, also called the mining waste Directive (MWD), requires Member States to report to the Commission on their national implementation in three-year intervals based on a questionnaire developed by the Commission in Commission Decision 2009/358/EC (Article 18 (1) of the MWD). In order to support the European Commission in publishing a report on the implementation of the MWD, the present study analyses the completeness of the Member States' (MS) responses to the questionnaire and draws conclusions with respect to the level of transposition of the MWD into national law in the respective MS. The MWD's main objective is to provide for "measures, procedures and guidance to prevent or reduce as far as possible any adverse effects on the environment, in particular water, air, soil, fauna and flora and landscape, and any resultant risks to human health, brought about as a result of the management of waste from the extractive industries." Therefore, the main provisions for the management of waste resulting directly from the prospecting, extraction, treatment and storage of mineral resources and the working of quarries relate to Category "A" waste facilities and facilities for waste characterised as hazardous. This is, because according to Annex III those facilities could give rise to a major accident with adverse environmental or health related consequences, contain hazardous waste above a certain threshold, or contain dangerous substances or preparations above a certain threshold.

EC note: These Regulations transpose Directive 2006/21/EC on the management of waste from extractive industries and amending Directive 2004/35/EC in respect of the requirements in Article 6 of the Mining Waste Directive concerning the preparation of an off-site (external) emergency plan, which must specify the measures to be taken off-site in the event of an accident. Article 6 applies only to waste facilities that are classified as Category A. Waste facilities are defined in Article 3(15) of the Mining Waste Directive as areas designated for the accumulation or deposit of extractive waste (extractive waste is waste resulting from prospecting, extraction, treatment and storage of minerals and the working of quarries) and these are referred to as mining waste facilities in these Regulations. Mining waste facilities are classified as Category A under the Mining Waste Directive if they contain hazardous waste or dangerous substances, or where failure or incorrect operation of the facility could give rise to a major accident

This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Directive 2006/21/EC3 on the management of waste from the extractive industries ("the Directive" or "EWD") provides minimum requirements, procedures and guidance to prevent or reduce as far as possible any adverse effects on the environment and any resulting risks on human health from the management of extractive waste. The Directive requires the competent authority to demand a financial guarantee (FG), prior to commencement of any operations involving the accumulation of extractive waste. In this context, the EWD requires the Member States (MS) to ensure that the operator draws up an Extractive Waste Management Plan (EWMP). The EWMP must include a closure plan, including site rehabilitation, after-closure procedures and monitoring. For waste facilities that require a permit, the EWMP is part of the permit application. The FG is to be established in accordance with procedures to be decided by the MS. The guarantee is lodged at the pre-operational phase and based on anticipated closure measures and their implementation cost, e.g. as specified in the EWMP. Since the operational phase of a mine might last for several decades, there is a degree of uncertainty associated with the FG. The EWD addresses this issue by requiring a review of the EWMP every 5 years and the FG periodic adjustment in accordance with any rehabilitation work needed to be carried out as described in the EWMP. For the closure and after-closure phase, the EWD requires MS to ensure that the operator requests an authorisation to start the closure procedure. This request is based on the latest periodic review of the EWMP taking into account the actual environmental impact of the waste facility and elaborates in detail the closure tasks and programmes including expected costs. Some MS require a separate closure plan. The Commission has adopted a Decision on technical guidelines for the FG establishment in accordance with the EWD. Some MS suggested to provide additional technical guidance for the implementation of the FG provisions. The present guideline document (GD) aims to support the EWD implementation by elaborating technical guidance for - Collection and description of the Closure Best Practices by Mining Typology - FG calculation prior to the commencement of waste deposit, and FG periodic adjustment; - Elaboration of updated closure plans taking into account the environmental impact of the operations; and - Approaches for determining the cost of the respective activities to implement the closure plan.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Directive 2006/21/EC on the management of waste from the extractive industries (EWD) provides measures, procedures and guidance to prevent or reduce as far as possible any adverse effects on the environment and any resultant risks on human health from the management of extractive waste. According to Article 5 of the EWD operators have to submit an extractive waste management plan (EWMP) as part of their permit applications. The present study uses a wide range of information provided by Member States and the extractive industries, reflecting many years of experience with EWMPs, to identify best practices, as well as to outline a methodology to develop EWMPs. The focus is on (a) the prevention or reduction of extractive waste generation and of its harmfulness, (b) the recovery of extractive waste (by recycling, re-use or reclaiming), as well as (c) the assurance of short- and long-term safe disposal of extractive waste. The study comprises two guidance documents, which were developed based on risk assessment principles, focusing on the objectives of (a) achieving a Circular Economy throughout the whole life-cycle of an extractive operation, and (b) the safety of the extractive waste at each stage of the life-cycle of an extractive waste facility.

Helpfully, it features a map of how waste regulation law fits together to aide quick comprehension of which legislation to look at and how each applies to particular industries and types of waste. The book also looks at how international regulation is changing and the impact that this has on UK waste regulation. The detailed treatment of the issues involved will enable practitioners to feel confident in what is a complicated area of law. Previous ISBN: 9781845925765
Download or read book The Hydraulic Transport and Storage of Extractive Waste written by Mike Cambridge and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers the guidelines on long-term confinement of fine particulate waste products in a safe and environmentally acceptable location. It seeks to present the state of the art, drawing on combined experience from within the European Union (EU), on good international practice where relevant and on lessons learnt from recent untoward incidents. These guidelines have been developed in parallel with the development of the European Standard on Earthworks (prEN 16907) and the contents have been influenced by the well-publicised need for guidance to all stakeholders on both technical and regulatory aspects of the permitting, design and construction of extractive waste facilities in Europe. The Extractive Waste Directive (EWD) imposes a duty on all operators and regulators to ensure the competent design, operation and closure of such facilities. However, though some guidance has been published on a limited number of related technical elements, the relevance of these contributions has been diminished by the lack of an integrated approach. It is now evident to both regulatory bodies and operators alike that a unified and comprehensive document providing guidance to all stakeholders is required if the future of mining within the EU is to be assured and further untoward incidents avoided. These guidelines seek to address all technical stages of the development of a hydraulic fill project in the context of the EWD, with an emphasis on waste and facility characterisation and on the risk-based assessments which underwrite them. They are intended for use by all stakeholders involved in those European industries which involve the generation, transport and storage of fine particulate waste products requiring long-term confinement in a safe, stable and environmentally acceptable location.
