There was a discussion of regulatory issues in the field of industrial ecology, combating climate change, woodworking, and agrochemical industries which are currently extremely relevant for both business and the country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Regarding the regulation of\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">ozone-depleting substances and fluorinated greenhouse gases<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, the Ministry of Environment is currently preparing a draft Order on the minimum requirements for certification of specialists working with contact substances. At the same time, a quota system for the import of controlled substances will be introduced in Ukraine after it ratifies the Kigali amendment and develops the national plan on the reduction of these substances.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The business was informed that the agreed text of the framework\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">draft law on waste management \u21162207-1-d<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0will be submitted to Parliament in late May. According to Mr. Abramovsky&#8217;s expectations, the draft law will be approved in mid-June this year, after which the Ministry will proceed with the development of sectoral draft laws on waste management, including packaging and mining.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Besides, the Ministry reaffirmed its readiness\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">to stimulate the use of industrial waste<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0(metallurgical slag and ash-slag materials) as a substitute for depleted natural resources and is open to proposals for further development in this area.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Regarding the registration of\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">installations for monitoring greenhouse gas emissions<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, it was reported that the relevant Order of the Ministry of Environment has already been published in the register of the Ministry of Justice. Therefore, companies can already submit their data for registration of installations in the Unified Register. The Ministry also confirmed that operators should calculate greenhouse gas emissions based on the methods provided by Law \u2116377-IX.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">According to experts from the Ministry of Environment, the procedure for obtaining\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">conclusions on the EIA\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">does not need to be reduced in time. Instead, the environmental impact assessment procedure needs to be made more predictable. Thus, it is proposed to provide a possibility to amend the report at the discussion stage to reduce the time for processing such amendments. Besides, the Ministry of Environment will shortly consider the business proposals regarding the draft law on amendments to the EIA procedure and provide appropriate clarifications. Also, the consultations will be continued with businesses on this issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The Ministry also takes a firm position on\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">the implementation of the EIA on the territory of the Emerald Network<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. Mr. Abramovsky explained to the business that it is impossible to completely remove the need for an impact assessment on the territory of the Emerald Network (EIAEN), as it will be perceived as a direct failure of Ukraine to fulfill its obligations under the Berne Convention. Therefore, the Ministry tried to make the EIAEN procedure less burdensome for companies. According to the Minister, EIAEN is a simpler procedure that is carried out in a shorter time than EIA. In addition, companies that have already received all permits and passed the environmental impact assessment procedure are exempted from the need to conduct EIAEN.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">EBA representatives and the Ministry of Environment also agreed to continue discussions on the\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">regulation of the timber market<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. The parties agreed that the relevant draft laws \u21164197 and \u21164197-1 need to be thoroughly revised. While supporting the concept of increased transparency in the timber market, the business considers it appropriate to provide a mechanism for selling timber on long-term annual contracts in parity with electronic auctions to ensure stability and guarantee the supply of raw materials for woodworking enterprises. At the same time, to prevent any abuse and corruption risks, it is advisable to provide that the volume of timber under such agreements depends on the history of consumption for previous periods. Thus, the price of timber under the terms of such agreements was formed on the principle of the weighted average price based on the results of previous auctions, and information on the parties to the agreements, volumes, and value was publicly available. At the same time, the woodworking divisions of state forestries should participate in the process of purchasing wood on equal terms with all woodworking companies, and effective measures of responsibility for violating tender rules should be established for both buyers and sellers of state forestries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In early April, the Ministry of Environment resumed the issuance of permits required for research institutions to conduct state testing of pesticides and agrochemicals.
