Prerequisite

If there is no risk of harm to the public good as a result of the waste disposal, the competent authority may grant an exemption from the obligation to keep records and registers in part or in full. In this context, the authority must take into account that there is a particularly strong public interest in keeping records and registers as standardised as possible and therefore without exemptions.

Procedure

You submit the application for exemption to the competent authority together with all the information required to assess the facts of the case.
The authority will process your application and decide whether an exemption can be considered.
You will be notified of the authority's decision.
