The document summarizes new UK waste regulations introduced in 2011. It overviews regulations that abolish some existing rules and introduce a two-tier carrier registration system requiring compulsory registration by the end of 2013 for businesses transporting their own waste. New rules also include implementing a waste management hierarchy prioritizing prevention, reuse, and recycling; changes to waste transfer notes now requiring compliance declarations; and additional facility permit conditions regarding waste management practices and odor management plans.
