Abfallentsorgung – Befreiung von der Nachweis- und Registerpflegepflicht beantragen

• § 26 Nachweisverordnung (NchwV) – Befreiung, Anordnung von Nachweis- und Registerpflichten
• Sächsisches Kostenverzeichnis (SächsKVZ) in der aktuell gültigen Fassung

If you dispose of waste or are involved in disposal processes for which you must keep proper records and a register, you can apply to the competent authority for exemption from this obligation to keep records and/or registers.

If there is no risk of harm to the public good as a result of the waste disposal, the competent authority may, upon request, grant an exemption from the obligation to keep records and registers in part or in full.

The obligations to keep records and registers under the Kreislaufwirtschaftsgesetz (KrWG) are aimed at documenting and monitoring the proper disposal of waste.

If your company produces, collects, transports or disposes of hazardous waste, you are obliged to keep records. Companies that generate hazardous waste and the companies involved in its disposal use the records and registers to prove proper disposal both to each other and to the competent authorities.

Companies that broker or trade in hazardous waste are also subject to the register obligation.

Justification why an exemption should be granted in the specific individual case.

Whether an exemption from verification and registration requirements can be granted is a discretionary decision of the competent authority.

In principle, an exemption is only possible if there is no reason to fear that the public interest will be adversely affected despite the exemption. In this context, the authority must take into account that there is a particularly strong public interest in keeping records and registers as standardized as possible and therefore free of exemptions.
