May 25, 2024

Circulars     Customs

Entities generating over 100 metric tonnes of used oil annually must comply with the Hazardous and Other Wastes (Management and Transboundary Movement) Second Amendment Rules, 2023. Key terms include "business," "collection point," "collection agent," "energy recovery," and "environmentally sound management." Producers, collection agents, recyclers, and used oil importers must register with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) on the portal. Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) mandates recycling targets, with penalties for non-compliance. EPR certificates are issued to recyclers and can be traded. The CPCB oversees compliance, supported by state bodies and a Steering Committee. Environmental compensation and prosecution apply for violations.
