FIRST SCHEDULE (Regulations 1(d), 3 (1), 5 (10), 24 and 72) GHANA WASTE LIST WASTE CATALOGUE AND HAZARDOUS WASTES LIST The Was te Catalogue and Hazardous Wastes List is used for the classification of all wastes and hazardous wastes. It is designed to form a consistent waste classification system in Ghana. It forms the basis for all national and international waste reporting obligations, such as those associated with waste licences and permits. The Environmental Protection Agency, in classifying all wastes and hazardous wastes, seeks to ease the task of classifying waste and hazardous wastes and understanding the legislation associated with the classification of waste and hazardous wastes. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USING THE LIST The different types of wastes in the list are fully defined by the six-digit code for the waste and the respective two-digit and four-digit chapter headings_ This implies that the following steps should be taken to identify a waste in the list. 1. Identify the source generating the waste in Chapters 01 to 12 or 17 to 20 and identify the appropriate six-digit code of the waste (excluding codes ending with 99 of these chapters) A specific production unit may need to cla:ify its activities in several chapters. For instance, a car manufacturer may find its wastes listed in chapters 12 (wastes From shaping and surfacing treatment of metals, 1 1 (inorganic wastes containing metals from metal treatment and the coating of metals) and 08 (wastes from the use of coatings), depending on the process involved. 67 L.I. 2250 Hazardous, Electronic and Other Wastes (Classilica on), Control and Management Regulations, 2016 2. Note: separately collected packaging waste (including mixtures of different packaging materials) shall be classified in 15 01, not in 20 01. 3. If no appropriate waste code can be found in Chapters 01 to 12 or 17 to 20, the Chapters 13, 14 and 15 must be examined to identify the waste. 4. If none of these waste codes apply, the waste must be identified according to Chapter 16. 5. If the waste is not in Chapter 16 either, the 99 code (wastes not otherwise specified) must be used in the section of the list corre- sponding to the activity identified in step one. 6. Any waste marked with an asterisk (*) is considered as a hazardous waste. Li. 2250 68 Hazardous. Electronic and Other Wastes (classification), Control and Management Regulations, 2016 CLASSIFICATION OF HAZARDOUS WASTES A. PROPERTIES OF WASTES WHICH RENDER THEM HAZARDOUS UN Classi Code Characteristics 1- 1 H1 Explosive An explosive substance or waste is a solid or liquid substance or waste (or mixture of substances or wastes) which is in itself capable by chermrcai reaction of producing gas at such a temperature and pressure and at such a speed as to cause damage to the surroundings. 3 H3 Flammable llqyids The word 'flammable" has the same meaning as 'inflammable". Fainmh■ e liquids are liquids, or mixtures of liquids, or I.duids containing solids in solution or suspension (for example, paints, varnishes, lacquers, etc., but not including substances Cr wastes cthe'wrsc classci:ed on account of their dangerous characteristics) 'Alit give off a flammable vapour at temperatures of not more than ctosed-cup test, or rot more than 65 6'C, open-cue test. results of open-cup fiy3ts and of dosed-cup tests are not cJinparab+e and ii:en individual resist:, by b;.,; same test are variable, regulations va:y.ng from the above figures to make allowance for such differences would be within the spirit of this !definition). 4.1 H4.1 Flammable solids Solids, or waste solids, other than those classified as explosives, .which under conditions encountered in transport are readily combustible, or may cause or contribute to fire through friction Substances or wastes liable to spontaneous combustion Substances or wastes which are liable to spontaneous heating under normal conditions encountered in transport, or to heating up on contact with air, and being then liable to catch fire .3 H4.3 Substances or wastes which, in contact with water emit flammable gases Substances or wastes which, by interaction with water, are liable to become spontaneously flammable or to give off flammable gases in dangerous quantities 69 L.I. 2250 Hazardous, Electronic and Other Wastes (Classifica on, Control and Management) Regulations, 2016 51 H5.1 Oxidizing Substances or wastes which, while in themselves not necessarily combustible, may, generally by yielding oxygen cause or contribute to, the combustion of other materials. 5.2 H5.2 Organic Peroxides Organic substances or wastes which contain the bivalent-o-o- structure are thermally unstable substances which may undergo exothermic self-accelerating decomposition. 6.1 H6.1 Poisonous (Acute) Substances or wastes liable either to cause death or serious injury or to harm human health if swallowed or inhaled or by skin contact. 6.2 H6.2 Infectious substances Substances or wastes containing viable micro organisms or their toxins which are known or suspected to cause disease in animals or humans. 8 H8 Corrosives Substances or wastes which, by chemical action, will cause severe damage when in contact with living tissue, or, in the case of leakage, will materially damage, or even destroy, other goods or the means of transport; they may also cause other hazards. 9 H10 Liberation of toxic gases in contact with air or water. Substances or wastes which, by interaction with air or water, are liable to give off toxic gases in dangerous quantities. 9 H11 Toxic (Delayed or chronic) Substances or wastes which, if they are inhaled or ingested or if they penetrate the skin, may involve delayed or chronic effects, including carcinogenicity. 9 H12 Ecotoxic Substances or wastes which if released present or may present immediate or delayed adverse impacts to the environment by means of bioaccumulation or toxic effects upon biotic systems.

THIRD SCHEDULE (Regulations 5 (3)(b4 8 (4) and 8 (5)) CRITERIA FOR ASSESSMENT OF WASTE FOR LANDFILL DISPOSAL 1. Approach (1) To assess waste for the purpose of disposal to landfill, the following are required: (a) identification of chemical substances present in the waste; and (a) sampling and analysis to determine the total concentrations (TC) and leachable concentrations (LC) for the elements and chemical substances that have been identified in the waste and that are specified in paragraph 4 of these criteria. (2) The TC and LC values of the chemical substances in the waste must be compared to the threshold limits specified in paragraph 4 of these criteria for total concentrations (TCT values) and leachable con- centrations (LCT values) of specific elements and chemical substances. (3) Based on the TC and LC values of the elements and chemical substances in the waste exceeding the corresponding TCT and LCT values respectively, the specific type of waste for disposal to landfill must be determined in terms of paragraph 5 of these criteria. 2. Total Concentration (TC) Analysis (1) The TC of all the elements and chemical substances specified in paragraph 9 of these criteria that are known to occur. likely to occur or can reasonably be expected to occur in the waste must be determined. (2) The TC of elements and chemical substances in waste must be determined using suitable national or international standard techniques and analysis methods that will provide reliable, accurate and repeatable results of the TC of elements and chemical substances specified in para- graph 4 of these criteria. 105 L.I. 2250 Hazardous, Electronic and Other Wastes (Classification), Control and Management Regulations, 2016 (3) Within three years of these criteria coming into operation, all analyses of the TC of elements and chemical substances in waste must be conducted by accredited laboratories to conduct the particular techniques and analysis methods required. 3. Leachable Concentration (LC) Analysis (1) The LC of elements and chemical substances must be deter- mined using the Australian Standard Leaching Procedure (AS 4439.1, 4439.2 and 4439.3). (2) Within three years of these criteria coming into operation, all analyses of the LC of elements and chemical substances in waste must be conducted by accredited laboratories to conduct the particular techniques and analysis methods required. (3) The type of leaching fluid used in the leaching procedure will depend on the nature of the waste or the particular disposal practice, and must be determined as follows: (a) waste to be disposed of, or waste that contains, putrescible wastes: Use 0.1M acetic acid solution with altered pH 5.0 or pH 2.9; (b) waste to be disposed of with non-putrescible waste: Use a basic 0.1 M sodium tetraboratedecahydrate solution of pH 9.2 ±0.1, as well as an acetic acid solution (pH 5.0 or 2.9); or (c) non-putrescible waste to be disposed of without any other wastes: Use reagent water. 4.

FIFTH SCHEDULE (Regulation 9 (1) and (3)) CRITERIA FOR ESTABLISHMENT AND APPROVAL OF A TAKE-BACK SYSTEM 5-1. Scope The provisions in this Schedule apply to (a) take-back systems for beverage packaging; (b) take-back systems for packaging and that are used in the distribution of beverages all the way to the consumer. 5-2. Purpose The purpose of the provisions in this Schedule is to facilitate effective take-back systems with a high recovery rate for beverage packaging such that the take-back systems help to prevent litter and to reduce the amount of waste produced by this kind of packaging. 5-3. Definitions For the purposes of this Schedule (a) "take-back system" means the scheme of returning or repossessing used products or used packaging from the market to the producer or to the representative of the producer; (b) "beverages" include liquid beverages and liquid concentrates intended for mixing; (c) "recovery" means reuse, materials recycling and energy recovery; (d) "deposit scheme" means a scheme where the consumer and the point of sale pay a certain amount (deposit) for the pack- aging of an article under the condition that the amount is refunded to the purchaser upon the return of the empty pack- aging; (e) "primary packaging" means the packaging unit (bottle, box or similar container) that the beverage is poured into; and (f) "secondary packaging" means the packaging unit that contains several primary packaging units. L.I. 2250 128 Hazardous, Electronic and Other Wastes (Classification), Control and Management Regulations, 2016 5-4. Establishment and approval of a take-back system The individual manufacturer or importer of beverages can set up and manage or join a take-back system for primary packaging. The Agency shall determine whether the take-back system is to be approved. A precondition for approval is that the take-back system is expected to achieve a minimum recovery rate to be determined by the Agency, and that the packaging is made available for environmentally sound recycling. Take-back systems based on energy recovery will only be approved if reuse or materials recycling is not technically, environmen- tally or financially feasible. Conditions relating to approval may be imposed. 5-5. Determination of the return rate The Agency shall set the return rate that the take-back system can be expected to achieve. The recovery rate shall be set in advance for a maximum of one year. 5-6. Labelling Upon the establishment of a deposit scheme for packaging types and product categories that have not previously been incorporated in a deposit scheme, the packaging itself or the label shall bear clear marking that indicates that the packaging can be returned for a refund of the deposit. 5-7. Return of packaging that is incorporated in a deposit scheme to points of sale Points of sale of beverages in packaging that is incorporated in a deposit scheme have a duty to accept equivalent quantities of empty packaging that they themselves retail. Upon delivery of the packaging to the points of sale, the consumer can claim a cash refund of the deposit. 129 L.I. 2250 Hazardous, Electronic and Other Wastes (Classification), Control and Management Regulations, 2016 Primary packaging in the deposit system based on reuse shall be delivered by the manufacturer to the points of sale in Or together with secondary packaging that is suitable to be used several times. 5-8. Deposit rates The deposit rates to be determined by the Agency in collaboration with key stakeholders shall apply to the following: (a) Primary packaging (per piece): Units with a filling volume of up to and including 50 cl (i) for trade between the manufacturer/importer and the reseller, (ii) for trade between the reseller and the consumer: Units with a filling volume exceeding 50 cl a) for trade between the manufacturer/importer and the reseller, (iii) for trade between the reseller and the consumer. (b) Secondary packaging (per piece): - for secondary packaging that is used in the distribution from the manufacturer/ importer. The refund of the deposits can be claimed in cash. 5-9. Prohibition on particular forms of packaging The Agency may prohibit the use of primary packaging that prevents the appropriate implementation of established deposit schemes.
