Metagegevens publicatie
The tender “ENV.B.3/ETU/2017/0039 - Study supporting the development of general guidance on the implementation of the Extractive Waste Directive (EWD)” has been launched in response to the findings of the EWD implementation report of 2016. While the previous published report on the implementation of the EWD concluded that the majority of Member States (MS) have adopted the measures needed to implement the EWD, the European Commission found a number of obstacles in assessing the implementation of the EWD. The EWD implementation report identifies that 1) the incomplete and inconsistent set of data is a major obstacle to the European Commission assessing the implementation of the EWD, and 2) diverging interpretations of the EWD are a likely source of inconsistencies in the data reported by MS. This project focusses on a reliable description of the material streams resulting from the extractive sector and their management, which might lead to an exchange with MS towards a uniform understanding and application of the EWD. The main objective of this study was to initiate a dialogue with authorities and stakeholders on key concepts of the EWD to develop a wider picture of the entire sector. More specifically, the project broadened the discussion to all material flows in the extractive sector to obtain a better understanding of 1) how the relevant definitions of the EWD are applied, 2) the number of extractive operations per MS (i.e. a comprehensive list of all metal mines and an aggregated overview at MS level with respect to the other commodities), 3) the volumes of the different commodities together with the metal mines’ and the non-metallic material flows and the route they are designated to (waste, or other), and 4) the precautions taken with respect to human health and the environment when managing “non-waste” material streams.
