What it is about

The regulatory requirements of the Austrian Waste Management Act (AWG) and the Trade Regulation Act (GewO) confront industrial companies with complex administrative tasks. The mandate offers reliable support at this critical interface to the authority. It ensures complete compliance with record-keeping obligations, hazardous substance storage requirements and conditions of official decisions.

Whether it is preparing for plant inspections under § 82a GewO, classifying complex material flows under waste law or taking on the role of waste management officer on an interim basis, support is legally sound and assertive, without losing sight of the economic reality of the company.

Frequently asked questions

What does an inspection under § 82a GewO involve?

A systematic self-inspection of the plant that checks whether all conditions of the permit decision are fully met and documented.

Do you also take on the role of waste management officer?

To a limited extent, preferably on an interim and mandate basis. For a permanent internal appointment, we are happy to qualify a person from your team and hand over in a structured way.
