Amendment 36 #
Proposal for a directive

Amendment 48 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 5
(5) Clear environmental, economic and social benefits would be derived from further restricting or banning landfilling, starting with waste streams that are subject to separate collection (e.g. plastics, metals, glass, paper, bio-waste). Technical, environmental or economical feasibility conditions of recycling or other recovery of residual waste resulting from separately collected waste should be taken into account in the implementation of these landfill restrictions.

Amendment 51 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 6
(6) Biodegradable municipal waste accounts for a large proportion of municipal waste. Landfilling of untreated biodegradable waste poses significant negative envioronmental effects in terms of greenhouse gas emissions and pollution of surface water, groundwater, soil and air. While Directive 1999/31/EC already sets landfill diversion targets for biodegradable waste it is appropriate to put in place further restrictions on the landfilling of biodegradable waste by prohibiting the landfilling of biodegradable waste that has been separately collected in accordance with Article 22 of Directive 2008/98/EC.

Amendment 64 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 8
(8) A progressive reductionphasing out of landfilling is necessary to prevent detrimental impacts on human health and the environment and to ensure that economically valuable waste materials are gradually and effectively recovered through proper waste management and in line with the waste hierarchy. This reductionphasing out should avoid the development of excessive capacity for the treatment of residual waste facilities, such as through energy recovery or low grade mechanical biological treatment of untreated municipal waste, as this could result in undermining the achievement of the Union's long-term preparation for reuse and recycling targets for municipal waste as laid down in Article 11 of Directive 2008/98/EC. Similarly, and to prevent detrimental impacts on human health and the environment, while Member States should take all necessary measures to ensure that only waste that has been subject to treatment is landfilled, compliance with such obligation should not lead to the creation of overcapacities for the treatment of residual municipal waste. In addition, in order to ensure consistency between the targets laid down in Article 11 of Directive 2008/98/EC and the landfill reduction targetban defined in Article 5 of this Directive and to ensure a coordinated planning of the infrastructures and investments needed to meet those targets, Member States which may obtain additional time for the attainment of the municipal waste recycling targets should also be given additional time to attain the landfill reduction target for 2030 as laid down in this Directive.

Proposal for a directive
Article 1 – paragraph 1 – point 3 a
Directive 1999/31/EC
Article 6 – point a – first subparagraph
(3a) in Article 6(a), the first subparagraph is amended as follows: "(a) only residual waste that has been subject to treatment is landfilled, that is not separately collected, nor biodegradable, compostable reusable or recyclable, is landfilled when no other environmentally sustainable alternative exists. This provision may not apply to inert waste for which treatment is not technically feasible, nor to any other waste for which such treatment does not contribute to the objectives of this Directive, as set out in Article 1, by reducing the quantity of the waste or the hazards to human health or the environment;"

Directive 1999/31/EC
Article 5 – paragraph 1
(-a) in Article 5 paragraph 1 is replaced by the following: 1. Member States shall set up a national strategy for the implementation of the reduction of biodegradable phasing out bio-waste going to landfills, not later than two years after the date laid down in Article 18(1) and notify the Commission of this strategy. This strategy shouldall include measures to achieve the targets set out in paragraph 2 by means of in particular, recycling, composting, small biogas productiondigesters or materials/energy recovery and shall progressively ban bio-waste going to landfills by 2025. Within 30 months of the date laid down in Article 18(1) the Commission shall provide the European Parliament and the Council with a report drawing together the national strategies.
