Interim Report, No 3, 19 September 2011 – 18 March 2012 • Drafting of Annual Emission Report (AER) and Verification of Emission Data by Independent Verifier against approved MP. In line with the EU ETS Directive, the Commission has adopted guidelines for the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions, known as "MRG". The original guidelines were adopted in 2004 for the first trading period (2005-2007) and revised in 2007 for the second trading period (2008-2012). For the third trading period (2013-2020), the Commission is currently preparing two regulations replacing the MRG in the future: one on monitoring and reporting and one on accreditation and verification. The training topics are based on specific tasks of inspectors within this framework and specifically refer to the process of monitoring, reporting, and verification. These topics are to be further elaborated in Task 2 and 3. Elaboration of training materials and subjects The following subjects will be covered in the training and presentation materials: • Introduction on ETS and ETS post 2012; • Monitoring , Reporting, Verification and Accreditation; • Monitoring Plans; • Formats of emission reports; • Experience in Germany and Croatia; • Accreditation of Verifiers; • Free industry allocation post 2012; • Inclusion of aviation in the EU ETS. Activity 4.4 Transfrontier Shipment of Waste (TFS) Delivery of the regional workshop on TFS, Istanbul, Turkey (18 – 19 April 2012) Delivery of the regional workshop on TFS, Skopje, fYR of Macedonia (13 – 14 June 2012) The following preparatory activities for delivery of the above workshop will be implemented in the period February – April 2012: Finalisation of training topics (TFS with special reference to compliance and enforcement systems): In 1994 the Council Regulation 259/93 on the supervision and control of shipments of waste within, into and out of the European Community, came into force. One of the main purposes of the European waste regulation is to prevent the shipment of environmentally harmful waste to countries that do not have the provisions to cope with these wastes. Another purpose is to take care of the environmentally sound processing of the waste. The regulation has been replaced by the Waste Shipment Regulation 1013/2006 in 2007. The enforcement of this Waste Shipment Regulation WSR (further referred to as WSR) is a competence of individual Member States. For an effective and efficient enforcement, organizations have to cooperate over their national borders as transboundary movements of wastes exceed these borders. Since RENA countries in the area of TFS are collaborating with IMPEL, the training topics have been selected in cooperation with IMPEL experts and with feedback from the WG 4 coordinators Elaboration of training materials and subjects Human Dynamics Consortium 65
Interim Report, No 3, 19 September 2011 – 18 March 2012 The following subjects and materials will be covered: • Introduction on international and European legislation on transboundary shipments of waste; • Enforcement of waste shipment rules; • Waste classification; • Case study from the region; • Safety issues; • IMPEL TFS Training DVD; • Port Inspections; • Collaboration and Communication; • End of waste criteria; • Dealing with illegal shipments of waste and their return; • Customs procedures and administrative processes; • Practical exercises with site visit (harbour/road border site). PPTs, checklists, basic supporting documents and regulations (use will be made of IMPEL documents adapted to the situation in the RENA countries) will be provided. The selected training topics will be related to the selected pilot sites and accordingly adapted (harbor and road transport). Activity 4.5 Inspection and Enforcement in cross border Nature protection areas The present activity scheme is closely linked with the activity scheme described in Working Group 3 Cross-Border Cooperation & Multilateral Environmental Agreements - Nature Protection, which has the general objective to Create a forum of officials from candidate countries and potential candidates to exchange experience on issues of transboundary relevance including transposition, implementation and enforcement of EU legislation on nature. The present activity scheme is especially focused on the enforcement aspects. Many issues are relevant in this respect including: • the need for transboundary cooperation; • the need for joint management (for example harmonized monitoring indicators, centralized joint baseline data, and monitoring data); • legal framework harmonisation with integrated roles into national legislation. The regulatory role is not only confined to nature aspects but also aspects regarding the environment. Depending on the area strengthening the regulatory and enforcement capacity might be needed for specific nature aspects but also for fisheries, forestry, and water management and environmental management in general. Since RENA countries in the area of Nature Inspection are collaborating with GREENFORCE, the training topics have been selected in cooperation with GREENFORCE experts and with feedback from the WG 4 coordinators in the selected countries for the pilot sites.
