Subject: [LF] EU RoHS Exemptions
FYI, I received this earlier this week.
Subject: Stakeholders consultation on Adaptation to scientific and technical
progress under Directive 2002/95/EC for the purpose of a possible amendment
of the Annex.
Dear Madam/Sir,
As you know, Article 4(1) of Directive 2002/95/EC on the restriction of the
use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment
provides `that from l July 2006, new electrical and electronic equipment put
on the market does not contain lead, mercury, cadmium, hexalent chromium,
PBB or PBDE.'
The Annex to the Directive lists a limited number of applications of lead,
mercury, cadmium and hexavalent chromium, which are exempted from the
requirements of Article 4(1).
Item 10 of the Annex, as published, states that the Commission shall
evaluate `as a matter of priority in order to establish as soon as possible
whether these items are to be amended accordingly'. On the basis of the
provision of Article 5(1)(b) the Commission has received from Member States
and Industry additional requests for applications to be exempted from the
requirements of the directive.
In preparation of the decision for the consideration of Item 10 of the Annex
and the additional requests submitted under Article 5(1) (b), the Commission
services have launched an on-line public stakeholder consultation with the
publication of a Consultation Document on the following web page:
http://europa.eu.int/comet/environment/waste/weee index.htm
You are invited to send written comments electronically (preferably in pdf
format) by 5 July 2004 at the latest by e-mail to [log in to unmask] or by
post to: European Commission DG Environment, Unit G4 - Consultation
Directive 2002/95/EC, B-1049 Brussels, Belgium.
Yours sincerely,
Marianne KLINGBEIL
