WASTE STATISTICS IN AZERBAIJAN
OFFICIAL STATISTICS LEGAL FRAMEWORK
2
Statistical data are collected in accordance with the Statistics Law. The Law enables obtaining information on the processes in economic and social areas of the country. The Law also sets fundamental principles of data collection, storage, analysis, compilation, presentation and publication. Compliance with the Law is mandatory for all government authorities, entities, organizations and units irrespective of ownership, subordination and locations as well as for individuals.
Constitution of Azerbaijan, Art. 94; Official Statistics Law (18.02.1994, latest amendments dd. 15.11.2011); Statute of the State Statistical Committee of the Republic of Azerbaijan.

Azerbaijan has set up a unified classification system which is harmonized with relevant European classifications. 1.Classification of Economic Activities - NACE rev.2; 2.Classification of Products - CPA 2008; 3.List of Industrial Products - PRODKOM 2009; 4.Classification of Economic Sectors; 5.Statistical Waste Classification – LIST of Wastes, EWC-Stat/variant 3; 6.Classification of Environmental Activities and Expenditures – 2011; 7.Classification of Administrative Territorial Division.
In 2011, Azerbaijan approved a system of environmental indicators which is based on official statistical reporting templates.

2006-2010 Action Plan to Improve Environmental Situation in Azerbaijan (2005)
6
Azerbaijan attaches importance to environmental issues and therefore has adopted a 5-year Action Plan to address the issue which has become a landmark in the area. The Action Plan includes activities to address issues related to the clean-up of the Baku Bay, Bibi-Aibat zone, area of the International Airport and Absheron Peninsula from oil puddles as well as oil contaminated land and areas under local water containing considerable process waste.
One of major projects was the construction and start-up of a plant in Baku to incinerate solid municipal waste. The project was implemented at the level of the European standards.
Azerbaijan 2020: Outlook for the Future (2012)Concept Paper
7
One of fundamental objectives of the concept paper is to achieve environmentally sustainable social and economic development.Necessary activities will be performed to promote waste recycling, processing and disposal and to implement non-waste and low-waste technologies with a view to save raw materials, to use natural resources in a sound way and to protect the environment. Advanced waste management methods will be applied and entities will be established for industrial and household waste recycling.
WASTE REPORTING SYSTEM
8
Statistical reporting forms: 1. Form 14-Secondary raw materials (wastes), Statement of generation and use of secondary raw materials (wastes); 2. Form 2-TP (wastes), Generation and movements of hazardous wastes; 3. Form 1-Medical wastes, Generation and movements of medical wastes.

WASTE DATA COLLECTION AND PROCESSING ISSUES
The national environmental legislation requires waste generators to prepare statistical reports for wastes. However, not all waste generators prepare such reports, though non-compliance with the law entails in administrative fines.
The collection of data from private businesses and institutions is also complicated.
There is no comprehensive reporting for all types of wastes. This is mainly because waste generators are not familiar with laws and bylaws. Even if there is some waste recording, mainly it covers only some types of wastes whereas other wastes are not recorded.
For instance, production plants keep records of major production waste, whereas such wastes as used cartridges, fluorescent lamps, accumulators, waste oil, etc. remain unrecorded.
There is no consistent system for waste recording. Records are maintained either in
cubic meters, or in tones, or in kilograms or in pieces.
