Medha111 May, 2023Education

The Draft Notification on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) on Waste Oil is a proposal by the Ministry of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change in India to regulate the management and disposal of used oil. The notification aims to make producers, importers, and brand owners of lubricating oil responsible for collecting, processing, and disposing of the waste oil generated by their products. The proposal includes provisions for setting up collection centers, transportation, storage, and recycling facilities for waste oil. It also seeks to ensure that waste oil is disposed of safely, without causing harm to the environment or public health.
