Transboundary Movement Control of Waste to be Expanded
摘要
In view of the international incident that arose following the Formosa Plastic Corporation's shipment of mercury-contaminated sludge to Cambodia the EPA will add stipulations to the Waste Disposal Act that will include the transboundary movement of some general waste and general industrial waste items within the scope of regulatory control. This decision was also made in consideration of the Basel Convention's trends regarding waste classification and management. To assist customs officials and environmental agency personnel identify hazardous waste during the import/export inspections of waste, a Reference Guide for Identifying Suspected Hazardous Waste will likely be completed before July.
