Since 2003 the quantities are calculated on the basis of European code new of waste (CED2) and classified as dangerous waste. For residues of waste disposal operations this method has been used since 2004. Due to the notification procedures, the data provided in 2012 for 2011 were based partly on estimates, these data were adjusted by the real quantities.
