Recital 12
(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 classified in accordance with the list of the types of waste as last estHazardous 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 give rise to risks to human health and safety. Because of their hazardous properties, hazardous wastes need an appropriate management which involves specific and adapted collection and treatment techniques, particular controls and dedicated waste traceabilished 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 Community. ty modalities.

Article 4
1. A substance or object, resulting from a production process, the primary aim of which is not the production of that item, may be regarded as not being waste referred to in point (1) of Article 3 but as being a by-product only if the following conditions are met: (a) further use of the substance or object is certain; (b) the substance or object can be used directly without any further processing other than normal industrial practice; (c) the substance or object is produced as an integral part of a production process; and (d) further use is lawful, i.e. the substance or object fulfils all relevant product, environmental and health protection requirements for the specific use and will not lead to overall adverse environmental or human health impacts. 2. On the basis of the conditions laid down in paragraph 1, measures may be adopted to determine the criteria to be met for specific substances or objects to be regarded as a by-product and not as waste referred to in point (1) of Article 3. These measures, designed to amend non- essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 36(2). (The Commission published its Interpretative Communication on by-products after the firstdeleted Or. en reading of the European Parliament. This can be considered as a new fact.)
