Duty of Care; |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
The duty of care is a legal requirement under the Environmental Protection Act 1990. It applies if you produce, import, carry, keep, treat, or dispose of waste tyres. |
|
| |
It requires you to take all reasonable steps to ensure that waste tyres are not handled illegally and that they are only transferred to an authorised person together |
|
| |
with a waste transfer note. If you transfer waste tyres to someone else, you must be sure they are authorised to take them. All authorised waste carriers are |
|
| |
registered with the Environment Agency (Scottish Environment Protection Agency in Scotland) and have a certificate of registration. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
When handing waste tyres to an authorised carrier, you must complete a waste transfer note giving a written description of the waste. Waste transfer notes vary |
|
| |
in appearance but must contain certain information. You must keep copies of all waste transfer notes for a minimum of two years. Environment Agency officials |
|
| |
who visit your premises will need to see these. Check that the waste carrier will transport your waste tyres to authorised facilities. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Following the duty of care will ensure your business avoids prosecution and loss of business through poor public image. Adopting good practice will improve |
|
| |
both your company's business and environmental performance. Making sure your waste tyres are disposed of legally will help to improve the management of |
|
| |
waste tyres in the UK and support development of sustainable recovery and recycling. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Failure to comply with the duty of care is a criminal offence. Action will be taken to prosecute those found using unauthorised channels and illegally dumping |
|
| |
tyres. If you fail to comply with the duty of care you could be fined an unlimited amount. |
