Ordinance pertaining to the recovery of waste at surface landfills and amending the Commercial Wastes Ordinance

With the Ordinance pertaining to the recovery of waste at surface landfills, which entered into force at 1 September 2005, the Environment Ministry has established standards for the recovery of waste which are similarly strict to those for disposal.

In the future this will prevent the false declaration which is criticised by many waste treatment facility operators.
