COUNCIL REGULATION (EU) 2017/997 of 8 June 2017 amending Annex III to Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards the hazardous property HP 14 ‘Ecotoxic’ (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(6) The definition of the hazardous property HP 14 ‘Ecotoxic’ was not amended by Regulation (EU) No 1357/2014 as an additional study was needed in order to ensure completeness and representativeness as regards information on the possible impact of an alignment of the assessment of the hazardous property HP 14 ‘Ecotoxic’ with the criteria laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. That study being completed, it is appropriate to reflect its recommendations in the assessment of hazardous property HP 14 ‘Ecotoxic’ for waste set out in Annex III to Directive 2008/98/EC, and to align that assessment, to the extent possible, with the criteria laid down in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 for the assessment of ecotoxicity of chemicals. When determining the hazard classification of waste for hazardous property HP 14 ‘Ecotoxic’ by applying calculation formulae, generic cut-off values, as defined in Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, should be applied.
