The Italian Ministry of the Environment sent to the relevant European Commission General Directorate two new ministerial End of Waste decree schemes on 14 and 20 December 2017, which will lead to the definition of the criteria for the assignment of the End of Waste status for two important flows:

  • the rubber deriving from End of Life Tyres
  • the bituminous conglomerate deriving from the rebuilding of road surfaces.

The end of Still Stand period (i.e. the period in which it is possible for citizens and institutions of the to send comments to DG TRIS on the specific project) will end on 15 and 21 February 2018 respectively.
