of 5 January 2001

amending the Annexes to Regulation (EC) No 1547/1999 and Council Regulation (EC) No 1420/
1999 as regards shipments of certain types of waste to Albania, Brazil, Bulgaria, Burundi, Jamaica,

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European
Community,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 259/93 of 1
February 1993 on the supervision and control of shipments of
waste within, into and out of the European Community (1), as
last amended by Commission Decision 1999/816/EC (2), and in
particular Article 17(3) thereof,

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 1420/1999 of 29
April 1999 establishing common rules and procedures to apply
to shipments to certain non-OECD countries of certain types of
waste (3), as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No
1208/2000 (4), and in particular Article 3(5) thereof,

Whereas:

(2)

In January 2000, the Commission sent a note verbale to
all non-OECD countries (plus Hungary and Poland
which do not yet apply OECD Decision C(92) 39 final).
The purpose of this note verbale was three fold: (a) to
inform these countries of the Community's new regula-
tions; (b) to ask for confirmation of the respective posi-
tions as outlined in the Annexes to Regulation (EC) No
1420/1999 and Commission Regulation (EC) No 1547/
1999 of 12 July 1999 determining the control proced-
ures under Council Regulation (EEC) No 259/93 to
apply to shipments of certain types of waste to certain
countries to which OECD Decision C(92) 39 final does
not apply (5), as last amended by Regulation (EC) No
1552/2000 (6), and (c) to have an answer from those
countries which did not reply in 1994.

replied, Brazil, Bulgaria,
Among the countries
Burundi,
Jamaica, Morocco, Nigeria, Peru, Romania,
Tunisia and Zimbabwe notified the Commission that the
import of certain wastes listd in Annex II to Regulation
(EEC) No 259/93 is accepted either without any control
procedure or subject to control pursuant to the control
procedure applying to Annex III or IV thereto or laid

down in Article 15 thereof. Concerning other waste,
they have indicated that they do not wish to receive
shipments.

Albania replied to the note verbale stating that its position
has not changed. However, the provisions concerning
Albania need to be amended to take into account the
new labelling system for certain types of waste laid
down in Annex II to Regulation (EC) No 259/93 as
amended by Decision 1999/816/EC.

In accordance with Article 17(3) of Regulation (EEC) No
259/93, the Committee set up by Article 18 of Council
Directive 75/442/EEC of 15 July 1975 on waste (7), as
last amended by Commission Decision 96/350/EC (8),
was notified of the official request of these countries on
23 June 2000 (on 12 July 2000 for Burundi).

In order to take into account the new situation of these
countries,
it is necessary to amend at the same time
Regulation (EC) No 1420/1999 and Regulation (EC) No
1547/1999.

The measures provided for in this Regulation are in
accordance with the opinion of the Committee set up by
Article 18 of Directive 75/442/EEC,
