• reduce the production of industrial and commercial waste per local unit;
• tend to regional self-sufficiency in the management of special waste;
• adopt measures to fight the uncontrolled abandonment, dumping and disposal of waste, through systems that allow a reliable traceability of the flows of special waste and favour the control of all the phases of their management;
• promote the use of clean technologies that produce waste in reduced quantity and dangerousness, with respect to “clean up technologies”;
• find operational measures and organisational solutions aimed at the recycling of material and the minimisation of the part to send for disposal;
• contribute to the realization of plants that are adequate in number, type and potentialities for the amount of waste that are no further reducible in quantity and dangerousness.
