Food Waste Regulation
In December 2009, John Gormley,
Minister for the Environment, published the Food Waste Regulations
(SI 508 of 2009) heralding national legislation for
the source separation of food waste from major commercial
premises.
These regulations are designed to promote
the segregation and recovery of food waste in the commercial
sector. They will facilitate achieving the targets set out
in the European Commission’s Landfill Directive 99/31/EC
for the diversion of biodegradable municipal waste (BMW) from
landfill sites to composting and anaerobic digestion plants
- and to other forms of biological treatment.
This training course will provide delegates
with the first opportunity to learn about these new regulations.
Environmental
Protection Agency’s Municipal Solid Waste - Pre-treatment
& Residuals Management
The EPA has draft protocols for the Evaluation
of Biodegradable Municipal Waste sent to Landfill by Pre-treatment
Facilities out for consultation.
The second part of the training course
will give an overview of the draft protocols.
