    Calculation based on Member States reporting as regard shipments of hazardous waste for the years 1997-1999. Approximately 15% are between and from EFTA countries and Member States and approximately 7% are between OECD and Member States and other countries.

    It can be debated, if the requirement that waste listed in Annex III shall be accompanied by certain information is a procedural requirement or not. However, since the OECD Decision uses the terminology 'green control procedure' in relation to shipments of waste listed in Annex III (Appendix 3 of the 2001 OECD Decision) and since it is clearer from a descriptive point of view if it is referred to as a procedure, it is considered appropriate to use a 'procedure-terminology' in relation to this information requirement. In certain contexts the term 'normal commercial transaction' is used.

    The 50 mg/kg level is considered to be an internationally practical level for all wastes. However, many individual countries have established lower regulatory levels (e.g. 20 mg/kg) for specific wastes.

    For the purpose of this entry, transition metals are: Scandium, Vanadium, Manganese, Cobalt, Copper, Yttrium, Niobium, Hafnium, Tungsten, Titanium, Chromium, Iron, Nickel, Zinc, Zirconium, Molybdenum and Tantalum. These metals or their compounds are dangerous if they are classified as dangerous substances. The classification of dangerous substances shall determine which among those transition metals and which transition metal compounds are hazardous.

     
  • 188. 
    Stabilisation processes change the dangerousness of the constituents in the waste and thus transform hazardous waste into non hazardous waste. Solidification processes only change the physical state of the waste (e.g. liquid into solid) by using additives without changing the chemical properties of the waste.

     
  • 189. 
    A waste is considered as partly stabilised if after the stalibisation process dangerous constituents which have not been changed completely into non dangerous constituents could be released into the environment in short, middle or long term.

  • 209. 
    It can be debated, if the requirement that waste listed in Annex III shall be accompanied by certain information is a procedural requirement or not. However, since the OECD Decision uses the terminology 'green control procedure' in relation to shipments of waste listed in Annex III (Appendix 3 of the 2001 OECD Decision) and since it is clearer from a descriptive point of view if it is referred to as a procedure, it is considered appropriate to use a 'procedure-terminology' in relation to this information requirement. In certain contexts the term 'normal commercial transaction' is used.

    Stabilisation processes change the dangerousness of the constituents in the waste and thus transform hazardous waste into non hazardous waste. Solidification processes only change the physical state of the waste (e.g. liquid into solid) by using additives without changing the chemical properties of the waste.

    A waste is considered as partly stabilised if after the stalibisation process dangerous constituents which have not been changed completely into non dangerous constituents could be released into the environment in short, middle or long term.

    De Europese Commissie kent nummers toe aan officiële documenten van de Europese Unie. De Commissie maakt onderscheid in een aantal typen documenten door middel van het toekennen van verschillende nummerseries. Het onderscheid is gebaseerd op het soort document en/of de instelling van de Unie van wie het document afkomstig is.

    De Raad van de Europese Unie kent aan wetgevingsdossiers een uniek toe. Dit nummer bestaat uit een vijfcijferig volgnummer gevolgd door een schuine streep met de laatste twee cijfers van het jaartal, bijvoorbeeld 12345/00 - een document met nummer 12345 uit het jaar 2000.

    Het interinstitutionele nummer is een nummerreeks die binnen de Europese Unie toegekend wordt aan voorstellen voor regelgeving van de Europese Commissie.
    Binnen de Europese Unie worden nog een aantal andere nummerseries gebruikt. Iedere instelling heeft één of meerdere sets documenten met ieder een eigen nummering. Die reeksen komen niet overeen met elkaar of het interinstitutioneel nummer.

    Deze databank van de Europese Unie biedt de mogelijkheid de actuele werkzaamheden (workflow) van de Europese instellingen (Europees Parlement, Raad, ESC, Comité van de Regio's, Europese Centrale Bank, Hof van Justitie enz.) te volgen. EURlex volgt alle voorstellen (zoals wetgevende en begrotingsdossiers) en mededelingen van de Commissie, vanaf het moment dat ze aan de Raad of het Europees Parlement worden voorgelegd.
