Basque register of emissions and pollutant sources from 2007 (EPER Euskadi/E-PRTR)

Regulation (EC) No 166/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a European Pollutant Emissions and Transfer Register and amending Directives 91/689/EEC and 96/61/EC was adopted on 18 January 2006.’ The European PRTR (E-PRTR) aims to implement at Community level the UN/ECE PRTR Protocol, which was signed by the European Community and 23 Member States in May 2003 in Kiev under the Aarhus Convention. The E-PRTR replaces the European Pollutant Emissions Inventory (EPER) under which data for the years 2001 and 2004 were reported.
