(12) The classification of waste as hazardous waste should be based, inter- alia, on the Community legislation on chemicals, in particular concerning the classification of preparations as hazardous, including concentration limit values used for that purpose. Furthermore, it is necessary to maintain the system by which waste and hazardous waste have been classifiHazardous wastes are qualified by hazard and risk criteria. As a result, they need to be regulated under strict specifications in order to prevent or limit, as far as possible, negative effects due to inappropriate management which may affect the environment, and to prevent risks to human health and safety. Because of their hazardous properties, hazardous wastes need ian accordance with the list of the types of waste as last established by Commission Decision 2000/532/EC, in order to encourage a harmonised classification of waste and ensure the harmonised determination of hazardous waste within the Communityppropriate management which involves specific and adapted collection and treatment techniques, particular controls and dedicated waste traceability modalities.
