Draft Regulation of the Minister for the Environment on video systems for the monitoring of waste storage areas or landfill sites

The draft Regulation sets out the requirements for the operation of video systems for the monitoring of waste storage areas or landfill sites, the minimum requirements for the monitoring system’s technical equipment and the requirements for the storage and retrieval of the recorded videos.

The introduction of the new requirements with regard to the operation of video systems for the monitoring of waste storage areas or landfill sites stems from the provisions of the Act of 20 July 2018 amending the Waste Act and certain other acts (Journal of Laws [Dziennik Ustaw], item 1592) introduced as a consequence of the increase in inappropriate waste management in the last few years, including the growing number of fires originating in stored waste.
