EPR Plastic Waste Compliance In Pune– Procedures, Fees And Documents Required

Under Solid Waste Management Rule 2016, plastic waste segregation at source has been made mandatory for producers in Pune due to its increasing threat on wildlife communities and ecosystems, particularly the plastic granules.

To mitigate plastic wastes in the environment, EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) for plastic waste compliance has been introduced by the government of Maharashtra to abate the causing effect of plastics by formulating recycled plastic waste for packaging and reuse rigid/multilayered plastics.

As per the revised circulation of Plastic Waste Management Rules 2016, EPR (Extended Producer Responsibility) is the legal framework policy which emphasizes the notion for shifting responsibility to Producer, Importer and Brand-Owners (PIBOs) of plastic for curbing the overall effect of plastic wastage on the environment.

The cancellation of EPR authorization for plastic waste compliance in Pune Is followed on the following conditions:

• CPCB (Control Pollution Control Board) can cancel EPR authorization if the CPCB/RPCB found out the PIBO of plastic is not complying to the E-Management Rules, 2016.
• The PIBO must apply for renewal of application for EPR authorisation before four months of expiry of the registration.
• After the verification of the documents, if it is found with any error or discrepancies, then the registration will be liable to be cancelled.

• The application process shall be proceeded by the authorized officials within 15 days.
• If any shortfall is seen after the verification of the documents, then the registration will be liable to cancel.
• The renewal takes about 150 days before the expiry of the validity of EPR authorization.
