Division 1.1.4 Cases where testing is not required

Testing for basic characterisation can be dispensed with in the following cases:

1. (a)

   the waste is on a list of wastes not requiring testing as laid down in section 2 of this Annex;

2. (b)

   all the necessary information, for the basic characterisation, is known and duly justified to the full satisfaction of the competent authority;

3. (c)

   certain waste types where testing is impractical or where appropriate testing procedures and acceptance criteria are unavailable. This must be justified and documented, including the reasons why the waste is deemed acceptable at this landfill class.
