Applies to England
Documents
Details
This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to produce waste transfer or consignment notes when you transfer your waste or hazardous waste to a wholesaler or retailer take back collection point. The collection point must be operated in line with the non-waste framework directive (NWFD) exemption 4.
However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with these legal requirements if you meet the requirements in the RPS.
The regulatory position does not apply to any other legal requirements.
