### sch.2-sec.54 Mechanical waste reprocessing Mechanical waste reprocessing (the relevant activity ) consists of operating a facility for receiving and mechanically reprocessing waste. The relevant activity does not include— baling or compacting clean paper, cardboard, aluminium cans or plastics; or reprocessing, including recycling, liquid waste; or reprocessing, including recycling, clean earth. In the following table, the aggregate environmental score for the relevant activity is the score stated opposite the threshold within which the relevant activity is carried out. Threshold Aggregate environmental score 3 operating a facility for receiving and mechanically reprocessing, in a year, more than 5,000t of inert, non-putrescible waste or green waste only 8 operating a facility for receiving and mechanically reprocessing, in a year, the following quantity of general waste— 5,000t or less 19 C more than 5,000t but not more than 10,000t 25 C more than 10,000t 31 C operating a facility for receiving and mechanically reprocessing, in a year, the following quantity of category 2 regulated waste— 5,000t or less 29 C more than 5,000t but not more than 10,000t 43 C more than 10,000t 56 C operating a facility for receiving and mechanically reprocessing, in a year, the following quantity of category 1 regulated waste— 5,000t or less 32 C more than 5,000t but not more than 10,000t 50 C more than 10,000t 73 C In this section— mechanically reprocessing waste includes mechanically crushing, milling, grinding, shredding or sorting waste, whether or not for the purpose of recycling the waste. reprocessing, including recycling, waste using a trommel, glass imploder, concrete crusher, green waste shredder or tyre shredder (sch.2-sec.54-ssec.1) Mechanical waste reprocessing (the relevant activity ) consists of operating a facility for receiving and mechanically reprocessing waste.
