  1. BERCEN 1st Exchange program – 26-30 November 2002 Croatia PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS IN COOPERATION AMONG ROMANIAN ENVIRONMENTAL RELATED INSTITUTIONS IN THE CONTEXT OF IMPLEMENTATION IPPC Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  2. INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENTSECTOR The sectoral strategy in industrial pollution control field has been updated, its main objectives being: Establishing of a specific compartment for pollution controlboth at central and local level Establishing of a specific database Establishing of the integrated monitoring system of the emissions into environment Elaboration of the Pollutant Release and Transfer Register Establishing of a national database for BAT Establishing of a national database for the emissions limit values Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  3. INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENTSECTOR (2) Timetable of the strategy implementation  Each Directive from this sector will be achieved by the end of 2003 The entering into force of these provisions is foreseen by the end of 2005. After 31 December 2005, all the activities / installations will have to comply with the new legal provisions. All the existing activities must comply with the new provisions within 10 years (2006 – 2015). The full implementation of the new legislation will be achieved by the end of 2015. Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  4. INDUSTRIAL POLLUTION CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENTSECTOR (3) The Directives included in this sector are: Directive No 96/61/EC (IPPC)concerning integrated pollution prevention and control Directive No 88/609/EEC (LCP), on the limitation of emissions of certain pollutants into the air from large combustion plants amended by the Directive 2001/80/EC Directive No 1999/13/EC (VOC)on the limitation of emissions of volatile organic compounds due to the use of organic solvents in certain activities and installations Directive No 96/82/EC (SEVESO II)on the control of major accident hazards involving dangerous substances Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000 of the European Parliament and of the Council on a revised Community eco-label award scheme Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  9. IMPLEMENTATION OF IPPC DIRECTIVE For the implementation of this directive by January 2003 (9 months from GEO 34/2002 entry into force, according to its art. 4 (2)) the following measures will be taken : • setting up of the Integrated Pollution Control Office within MWEP; • opening the negotiations with the Industries Employers Associations for setting up of the emission limit values of the industrial branches; • opening the negotiations with the Industry Employers’ Associations to establish the Best Available Techniques for each sector; Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  10. IMPLEMENTATION OF IPPC DIRECTIVE (2) The main activities to be carried out are: • To elaborate the national norms and guidelines for all the “BREFs” approved by EU to be adopted according to the specific characteristics of Romania industry; • To establish a guideline for IPPC installation inspection and control; • To develop a Manual for the control procedures of the emission from IPPC installations; • To implement a national pollutant emissions register for including these data into EPER (European Pollutant Emissions Register) and elaboration a methodology of self-reporting procedures of the operators forfrequency of the reports issuing, reports content, voluntaries reporting procedures Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  11.

  14. PROBLEMS AMONG INVOLVED INSTITUTIONS • BAT data base is in preparation • Weak correlations among strategies and action plans of involved institutions regarding waste management • Energy efficiency- Economical interests of national energy producers and suppliers are often in contradiction with the increasing of energy efficiency • Action to prevent accidents and residual pollution on closure-week legislation regarding establishing environmental obligations on closure significant factories Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  15. Possible solutions (1) • Adoption of BAT guides • Cooperation among all involved institutions and companies in elaboration and implementation of a waste management strategy or action plan • Subsidies for companies (both producers and users) who increase energy efficiency Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA

  16. Possible solutions (2) • Adoption of a clear legislation regarding closure and dismantling of industrial sites • Training and specific accreditation of the personnel who issue the environmental permits and/or control units under IPPC Directive. • Establishing an unique pattern for monitoring and reporting • Establishing what kind of data are included in the “confidential” category and data that are public available Ministry of Waters and Environmental Protection, ROMANIA
