1 How to use the report and realise benefits from this document
The intention of the project is to provide the European Commission with an information and
decision basis to facilitate the implementation of appropriate measures in order to further
reduce unintentional releases of POPs. For details see chapter 2 (background and objectives)
Two ways seem to be recommendable to read the report:
Top Down Approach
The hasty reader gets the important messages first when using this approach and starting
with chapter 9. He can then – if he needs further evidence – go to chapter 8 where he finds an
overview on the assessment results in 8.1 and 8.2. Information and justification for suggested
measures is available in chapter 8.3. He should then further proceed to chapter 7 where the
gaps and deficits of the current situation in Member States and on European level concerning
the objective of minimising POP releases are summarised (7.1, details in 7.2)
Chapter 8 and 7 contain matrices with a similar structure.
For all relevant POP sources the following information is provided:
• Material flow information
• Assessment of importance of material flows
• Measure information
Start:
Chapter 9
• Assessment of appropriateness of measures
• Overall assessment results
