The Malta-EU Steering and Action Committee (MEUSAC), together with the Malta Environment and Planning Authority (MEPA), will be organising a seminar on Malta's actions in the fields of waste and noise management. This seminar will focus on:
Malta's draft plan for the implementation of the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive (Directive 2002/96/EC). This Directive address the environmental impacts of WEEE and encourages its separate collection, subsequent treatment, reuse, recovery, recycling and environmentally sound disposal. The WEEE Directive affects producers, distributors, consumers and those involved in the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment, and encompasses everything from electronic games, calculators, toasters and kettles to audio equipment, fridges, washing machines, commercial and industrial equipment.
Malta's Noise Action Plan which sets out the way forward regarding the implementation of Directive 2002/49/EC relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise. This plan aims at preserving environmental noise quality where it is good, and preventing and reducing environmental noise where necessary and particularly where exposure levels can induce effects on human health.
