(Case C-629/19) (*)
(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Environment - Waste - Directive 2008/98/EC - Article 2(2)(a), point 1 of Article 3 and Article 6(1) - Waste water - Sewage sludge - Scope - Concept of ‘waste’ - Cessation of waste status - Recovery or recycling operation)
(2020/C 423/18)
Language of the case: German
Applicants: Sappi Austria Produktions-GmbH & Co. KG, Wasserverband ‘Region Gratkorn-Gratwein’
Defendant: Landeshauptmann von Steiermark
Article 2(2)(a), point 1 of Article 3 and Article 6(1) of Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives must be interpreted as meaning that sewage sludge generated during the joint treatment of industrial and residential or municipal waste water in a sewage treatment plant, which is incinerated in a waste incineration plant for the purposes of energy recovery by generating steam, must be regarded as not being waste if the conditions in Article 6(1) of Directive 2008/98 are already met before its incineration. It is for the referring court to determine whether that is the case in the main proceedings.
