ANNEX III

Regardless of whether or not wastes are included on this list, they may not be subject to the general information requirements laid down in Article 18 if they are contaminated by other materials to an extent which increases the risks associated with the wastes sufficiently to render them appropriate for submission to the procedure of prior written notification and consent, when taking into account the hazardous characteristics listed in Annex III to Directive 91/689/EEC; or prevents the recovery of the wastes in an environmentally sound manner. The following wastes will be subject to the general information requirements laid down in Article 18: Wastes listed in Annex IX to the Basel Convention (2).
