This Government Resolution regulates activities and establishes operating conditions and supervision of waste incineration and co-incineration plants in order to prevent or limit, as far as possible, negative impacts on the environment, and especially pollution due to emissions into the air, soil, surface and groundwater and the risks they pose to human health, flora and fauna. It shall be applicable to all stationary and mobile complexes and equipment.

Annex 3 establishes equivalence factors for dibenzoparadioxins and dibenzofurans. Annex 4 establishes limit values for emissions to the atmospheric air from waste incineration plants. Annex 5 establishes limit values for emissions to the atmospheric air for waste co-incineration from waste incineration plants.
