SCHEDULE 2 S ASSESSMENT OF BENEFIT TO AGRICULTURE OR ECOLOGICAL IMPROVEMENT

2.  In assessing benefit to agriculture, regard shall be had to whether the use of the waste on the land will result in an improvement of the soil for the purpose of growing crops or grazing, and the following criteria shall apply for the purposes of such assessment— S

(a) the addition of nitrogen, phosphorus and other plant nutrients in the waste material should take account of the soil nutrient status and other sources of nutrient supply and be matched to the needs of the planned crop rotation;

(b) the addition of total nitrogen attributable to the use of the waste on the land in any 12 month period must not exceed 250 kilograms per hectare, except in the case of the following wastes as listed in the European Waste Catalogue—

(e) the spreading or injection of watery wastes may be a benefit where the moisture of the soil is insufficient to support the growth of crops at the time of application, or where they contain nutrients which are applied at an appropriate rate;

(f) the spreading of waste soil may be a benefit where it is done in order to level uneven land and thereby facilitate the use of the land for agriculture, but not where it is done solely in order to raise the level of the land.

3.  In assessing ecological improvement, regard shall be had to the extent to which wildlife habitats which might otherwise deteriorate are maintained or supported. The creation of a new habitat, or the restoration of an old habitat, is regarded as an improvement. S

(iv) the development of appropriate techniques for the final disposal of dangerous substances contained in waste destined for recovery; and

(3) In a case in which a person other than that individual has been convicted of a relevant offence, the waste regulation authority must have regard to whether that individual has been a party to the carrying on of a business in a manner involving the commission of relevant offences.

(4) In relation to any applicant for registration or registered broker or dealer, another relevant person must be treated for the purposes of paragraph 3(11) or 5(1) as having been convicted of a relevant offence if—

(i) has been convicted of a relevant offence; or

(ii) was a director, manager, secretary or other similar officer of another body corporate at a time when a relevant offence for which that body corporate has been convicted was committed.

(5) For the purposes of this Schedule, an application for registration or for the renewal of a registration as a broker of or dealer in controlled waste shall be treated as pending—

(a) whilst it is being considered by the waste regulation authority; or

(7) An applicant who wishes to apply to be registered or for the renewal of registration both as a carrier and as a broker of or dealer in controlled waste may, instead of making an application on the forms provided for by regulation 4(6) of the Carriers Regulations and by sub-paragraph (6), make a combined application on a form containing the information required by those forms.
