Waste management

Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH) has made progress in the area of waste management since the last EPR in 2003. The construction of regional sanitary landfills has started, 10-15 per cent of illegal dumpsites have been closed, and efforts have been made to remove the accumulated hazardous/chemical waste. An effort to collect data on waste is underway, whilst framework laws have been established, as has complementary secondary legislation for implementation, although a lot still needs to be done in this area.
