Construction waste sorting and local government funding

New regulations require the sorting of construction and demolition waste. Local governments can receive co-financing for activities specified in the Waste Act. The changes take effect on January 1, 2025.
Key points
Construction and demolition waste must be sorted: wood, metals, glass, plastics, gypsum, and mineral waste (including concrete, bricks, tiles, ceramics, and stones) separately.
The waste producer (or the next holder if the producer is a natural person who is not an entrepreneur) is responsible for sorting – the obligation can be delegated in writing under pain of nullity.
Local governments can receive up to 99% co-financing for activities specified in Art. 26a(1) of the Waste Act, with the annual state budget expenditure limit set at 300 million PLN.
Failure to ensure the sorting of construction and demolition waste is subject to penalties.
