Abstract

These Waste Minimisation (Information Requirements) Regulations 2021 require operator of a cleanfill facility: class 5, industrial monofill facility, or transfer facility to keep record of several matters, these include: the tonnage of the waste or diverted material as measured, the method use for weighting, the date the waste or diverted material entered the facility and when it was measured, and other factors depending on how the waste and diverted material was measured. The Regulations also require the operator to provide the Secretary for the Environment with quarterly returns containing information on the gross tonnage and diverted tonnage for the facility (the operator may, however, seek approval to provide an annual return instead).
