ANNEX

FORMAT FOR THE TRANSMISSION OF RESULTS ON WASTE STATISTICS

The data are to be transmitted in a system independent way. The data shall be transmitted in conformity with an
interchange standard proposed by the Commission (Eurostat).

The data sets

The domain covered by Regulation (EC) No 2150/2002 on waste statistics consists in five sets of information:

— Generation of waste (GENER)

— Incineration (INCIN)

— Operations which may lead to recovery (RECOV)

— Disposal (DISPO)

— Number and capacity of recovery and disposal facilities; coverage of waste collection scheme by NUTS 2 region

(REGIO).

For each set a file has to be transmitted. The file name consists in six parts:

Domain

Set

Periodicity

Country code

Year

Period

Value: WASTE

GENER, INCIN, RECOV, DISPO, REGIO

Value: A2

Two letter country code (see list A)

Reference Year (first reference year 2004)

Value: 0000 (zero, zero, zero, zero) for annual data

The parts of the file name are separated by an underscore. A text based format will be used. For example, the set on the
generation of waste from Belgium in 2004 will have the name WASTE_GENER_A2_BE_2004_0000.

Missing values

There will be no missing values in the classifying variables (waste category, economic activity, NUTS 2 region, type of
waste treatment facility). Records should be provided for each combination of the classifying variables. All records where
the combination does not occur should be sent with a value set to 0 (zero). Any records for which data are not available
should nevertheless be provided with the value coded appropriately as missing (coded with the letter ‘M’). Missing values
will have to be explained in the quality report; they might for instance be the result of the methods used. It is important
to distinguish between real zeros and missing values, as no aggregates can be calculated with missing data.
If a
combination is not possible on logical grounds the cell should be supplied with code ‘L’; this is the case, for instance,
for industrial effluent sludges generated by households. To facilitate consistency checks and correction of errors also the
totals should be transmitted.

Confidentiality

Confidential data should be transmitted, properly flagged as confidential. What should be regarded as confidential is based
on the national confidentiality policy. In general
if the identity of the supplier of
information could be disclosed. This is the case if the information is based on one or two respondents, or if one or two
respondents dominate the data. Data from public authorities are generally not regarded as confidential.

information could be confidential

Also secondary confidentiality should be indicated. Secondary confidentiality should be applied in such a way that
(sub)totals remain available for publication. The Commission (Eurostat) will use the confidential
information to
calculate (EU) aggregates without disclosing information confidential at the country level.

Measures

The fields required are alpha-numeric, i.e. they should not contain separators or decimal symbols, except for the data
value. The amounts of waste are expressed in 1 000 tonnes per year, with three decimal positions. The comma is to be
used as decimal symbol. The estimation method will not always allow the three digits precision. In that case the value
should be delivered with the significant digits only. For all the waste categories the amount is based on (normal) wet
waste, for the generation of sludge (waste items 11, 12, 40) the amount is also calculated in 1 000 tonnes of dry matter.
Also in the waste treatment sets sludge has to be measured in both (normal) wet waste and in dry matter. This will only
be applied where sludge is a separate item; this is for common sludges (item 12) in the incineration and disposal set.

The number of waste treatment facilities is expressed as an integer. Several measures are used to describe the waste
treatment capacity dependent on the type of recovery or disposal operation (see list I). To enhance comparability the
delivery of incineration capacity in 1 000 tonnes is preferred. Countries that can also supply incineration capacity in
terajoules (1012 joules) are invited to do so. Countries that can not supply incineration capacity in terajoules should
report the value as missing (use code ‘M’). Recovery capacity is measured in 1 000 tonnes. Disposal capacity has to be
reported either in cubic metres or in tonnes depending on the type of disposal. Only values measured in 1 000 tonnes are
supplied as a real number with 3 decimal positions, all other values are to be supplied as integers.

The coverage of the collection scheme for mixed household and similar waste should be reported either as the percentage
of the population or as a percentage of the dwellings.

Revisions

The sets should be sent in separate files containing all the records. For instance, the set on generation of waste contains
51 waste categories by 21 NACE groups measured in wet waste and 3 waste categories by 21 NACE groups measured in
dry matter. The set contains 1 134 records.

Also revised data should be sent in a complete set, with the revised cells properly flagged (R). Provisional data are flagged
with update flag P. Provisional data always require a revision. Both provisional and revised data require an explanation in
the quality report.
