Waste Management Act (Cap. 334A).

This Act provides rules for the management of waste and the prevention of pollution of waste. "Waste" does not include foul water or sewage, which come under the responsibility of the National Water and Sewerage Authority (NAWASA), but discharged waters shall be included into the National Waste Inventory, which is established by the Minister under this Act. The Minister must also produce a National Waste Management Strategy. An environmental impact assessment is required for any waste management facility. A decision to approve a waste management facility shall be taken by the Minister after a recommendation of the Development Control Authority established under the Land Development Control Act (planning authority). The applicant must implement any monitoring programme, protection plan or mitigation measure that is made a condition of approval and must construct the facility in accordance with the standards referred to in the Third Schedule. All new or existing facilities shall obtain a waste management licence. Importation of waste in Grenada is prohibited. Provisions of this Act also concern transport and storage of waste.
