<h1>India Tightens Controls on Hazardous Waste Imports Under Basel Convention and Hazardous Wastes Rules, 1989.</h1> The circular from the Government of India addresses the issue of hazardous waste importation, noting instances of misdeclaration as chemicals for dumping purposes. It references the Basel Convention, which India ratified, mandating control over hazardous waste movement. The Hazardous Wastes (Management & Handling) Rules, 1989, prohibit the import of 18 categories of hazardous waste for dumping, allowing import only for processing after a case-by-case review. Exporters must notify the government about proposed waste movements, and imports require government permission. Customs officers are instructed to prevent illegal imports and ensure compliance with these regulations.
