Transboundary waste shipments are regulated by Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 on shipments of waste, which is based on the Basel Convention and the OECD decision on the movements of waste. Notifications submitted on or after the electronic import-export reporting compliance date must be submitted electronically using EPA's Waste Import Export Tracking System (WIETS), or its successor system. If the waste is to be shipped to a third country, i.e. (1) General notifications. No exporter may be held liable for the inability to produce such documents for inspection under this section if the exporter can demonstrate that the inability to produce the document is due exclusively to technical difficulty with EPA's Waste Import Export Tracking System (WIETS), or its successor system for which the exporter bears no responsibility. Three factors determine whether or not you need to notify the Agency of your shipment or if it is sufficient for an information document to accompany the waste: It is established in Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and its annexes listing types of waste whether or not notification and approval are required for a waste shipment.
(4) A notification is complete when EPA determines the notification satisfies the requirements of paragraphs (b)(1)(i) through (xiii) of this section. The rules are set out in Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 on shipments of waste.

(i) A Green waste that is mixed with one or more other Green wastes such that the resulting mixture is not hazardous waste is not subject to the requirements of this subpart. Export of hazardous wastes that were originally imported into the United States for recycling or disposal operations is prohibited unless an exporter in the United States complies with the export requirements in 262.83(b)(7). The guidelines on transboundary waste shipments are mainly aimed at those who are to export or import waste, aAuthorities such as Municipalities, County Administrative Boards, the Police, the Swedish Customs and the Public Prosecutor's Office.

The regulated community should note that some countries may require, by domestic law, that a mixture of a Green waste and more than a de minimis amount of an Amber waste or a mixture of two or more Amber wastes be subject to the Amber control procedures. Any shipment using the requested changes cannot take place until EPA and the countries of transit consent to the changes and the importer receives an EPA AOC letter documenting the consents to the changes. (ii) Promptly send copies of the confirmation of recovery or disposal that it receives from the final foreign recovery or disposal facility within one year of shipment delivery to the final foreign recovery or disposal facility that performed one of recovery operations R1 through R11, or RC1, or one of disposal operations D1 through D12, DC1 or DC2 to the competent authority of the country of import.
