TRANSCRIPT
2nd Consortium meeting
WP3 progress
Preliminary evaluation of received information
4-5 February, Split
WP-3: Extraction and Demolition Site Level Activities
Objectives
• decreasing environmental and social impacts of quarrying and improving reclamation,
• reducing illegal quarrying, and • increasing recycling, which will
decrease the use of primary aggregates
WP3 Activities• 3.1: Best practicesedition of manuals/guides/toolboxestowards aggregates sustainability • 3.2: Illegal quarrying good communication, capacity building and stakeholder consultation to achievesocial license to operate • 3.3: Recycling re-use of quarry and demolition wastes. • 3.4: Outreach/CommunicationStakeholders’ handbook

WP3 Split Agenda
• Activity 3.4 work progress (F. Chalkiopoulou)
– Preliminary evaluation of SQ referred to 3.1 & 3.2, and of SQ+R referred to 3.3
Methodology approach • To address the WP3 objectives the
following tools were elaborated and used:– Questionnaires based on an aggregates
oriented version of the RMI framework and the Extractive Industries Value Chain document
– Templates to obtain model sites information to be used in the data base, the reports and manuals, and the quarry life cycle studies
Why policy concerned Questionnaires
• The strategic and regulatory context affects the aggregates permissions for new quarries and for extensions of existing operations, as part of the land use planning taken place.
• The appraisal of the legal framework on aggregates from the point of view and perspective of the regional and local level decision making administration (Governmental Mineral Bureau, Regional Mine Inspectorate, Land Use Planners etc), the aggregates producers and other potential stakeholders.
• The expectations that “Critical views” on legislative issues may become Best Practice tools optimizing the efficiency and sustaining then resource supply and life cycle of aggregates quarrying.
Two Questionnaires• SARMa Questionnaire (SQ)
– Turn administrative and legislative decision making into driving force for environmentally friendly aggregates extraction practices and increased legal quarrying
• SARMa Questionnaire for Recycling (SQ+R)– Promote and carry out the specific LCA targeted
studies – has to be improved
Two Templates• Model sites evaluation and assessment to
elaborate Best Practice indicators with respect to planning, design, operation and post-closure phases of legal and illegal aggregates quarrying, and recycled wastes at site level, using,– SARMa DataBase (SDB); to create and establish an
aggregate quarries GIS database model compliant to interoperability and standardization rules of INSPIRE
– Baseline Study Reports (BSR); to review the current state of the model site quarries, and identify and recommend Best Practice guidelines towards sustainable aggregates
SDB will be slightly modified and additional questions may be asked
Statistics of A3.1- Best Practices• 7 of 9 SDB, and • 4 of 8 BSR received
– Missing: Fruska gora - SR (probably replaced by Kovilovaca quarry for which the SDB form was completed and sent recently but the BSR is still missing), Iacobdeal, Luminita-Tasaul – RO (change of sites underway), Terstenik - HR.
– Please pay attention! The BSR template is a proposed contextual structure for a full report and not a set of questions to be answered.
Statistics of A3.2 – Illegal mining• 4 SDB of 5, and• 4 BSR of 5 received
– Missing: Terstenik – HR.
Statistics of A3.3 – Recycling• 7 of 11 BSR• 7 of 11 SDB
– Missing both BSR and SDB: Nerviano, Legnano - IT, Moldova Noua, Deva –RO.
• 8 of 10 SQ+R– Missing from Italy (?) and Romania
Statistics of A3.3 – Recycling
Received• 7 of 11 BSR• 7 of 11 SDB
– Missing both BSR and SDB: Nerviano, Legnano - IT, Moldova Noua, Deva –RO.
• 8 of 10 SQ+R– Missing from Italy and Romania
Statistics of A3.4 – HandbookReceived
• 11 of 15 SQ– From Greece: Ministry in charge, 2 Regions, 2
Prefectures.– Missing: Hungary, Bosnia, Croatia, Albania– Additional documentation on legal issues was
submitted by Serbia (4 environmental laws), Albania (mining law and prospecting permit), Austria (mineral policy, mineral plan, federal waste plan, guidelines for recycled building materials).

Almost all WP3 participants mobilized
• Thank you for your cooperation and contributions to now
• Further work needs to be undertaken to collect the field and other operational data from the model sites as required by SDB and BSR.
• Improvements on the SQ-R and SDB underway
