Decision 96/350/EC (5), and in particular Article 18
thereof,

Whereas, in accordance with Article 42(3) of Regulation
(EEC) No 259/93, Annexes II, III and IV have to be
adapted to reflect only those changes already agreed
under the review mechanism of the OECD;

Whereas the Council of the OECD (6) has decided in the
framework of the review mechanism to modify the green
and amber lists of wastes;

Whereas it is necessary to modify Annex II of the Regula-
tion to reflect these modifications;

Whereas the Commission, in order to adapt Annexes II,
III and IV to the Regulation is assisted in this task by the

the
Committee established pursuant
Council Directive 75/442/EEC of 15 July 1975 on waste,
as amended;

‘ANNEX II

GREEN LIST OF WASTES (*)

Regardless of whether or not wastes are included on this list, they may not be moved as green wastes if they
are contaminated by other materials to an extent which (a) increases the risks associated with the waste suffi-
ciently to render it appropriate for inclusion in the amber or red lists, or (b) prevents the recovery of the
waste in an environmentally sound manner.

Brussels Convention of 14 June 1983 under the auspices of the Customs Cooperation Council (Harmonised System) is
listed opposite an entry. This code may apply to both wastes and products. This Regulation does not include items
which are not wastes. Therefore, the code — used by customs officials in order to facilitate their procedures as well as by
others — is only provided here to help in identifying wastes that are listed and subject to this Regulation. However,
corresponding official Explanatory Notes as issued by the Customs Cooperation Council should be used as interpretative
