The entity storing the collected waste should commission a document entitled Fire operation. In the case of collecting combustible waste by the entity, we are most often dealing with their storage. The storage of this type of waste generates the obligation to submit to the authority (processing the waste application) a fire safety survey together with the decision of the Commander of the State Fire Service. The problem is that there is no specific definition of the term "combustible waste", nor is there a complete list of such waste. Deciding whether to classify waste as combustible or non-combustible is important, but sometimes problematic. By specifying the flammability of our stored waste, we are able to determine whether we will be required to carry out a fire protection report or not. The fire protection report should contain some basic information, such as: a description of the conditions of fire protection of the installation or facility, its part or other waste storage site. The survey should also indicate the places of storage of combustible waste. When the author of the survey finds that the conditions for the collection of waste are incorrect, he may suggest to the waste collector to change the arrangement of the storage places or to secure them appropriately. One of the solutions in complicated situations is to build a wall with an appropriate structure that reduces the chances or extent of fire spreading in the event of its occurrence. An important aspect in obtaining a positive resolution is ensuring access to an adequate amount of water corresponding to the needs of extinguishing the fire.
