1. What is environmental auditing in Europe? obligatory - voluntary

“Environmental auditing”

is the systematic, documented, periodic and objective evaluation

of the performance of an organization to

protect the environment and to

manage the environmental aspects

with the aim of:

Facilitating management control of

practices which may have an environmental

impact

Assessing environmental policy compliance, including

the organization’s environmental

objectives and targets

Competent Enforcement Authorities:

•Regional/Provincial Government and County

Councils

Controls are carried out by:

•Environmental Agencies: APAT, ARPA, NOE, etc.

• UNI EN ISO 14001: (Short form: ISO 14001)

Verified by private Organisations (e.g.BVQI, DNV,

Certiquality…) which are accredited by ACCREDIA

Organisation

• EMAS: Verified by the Committee for Ecoaudit and

Ecolabel (governmental body)

1. What is environmental auditing in Europe? obligatory - voluntary

The ITALIAN ENVIRONMENTAL ACT (D.Lgs. 152/2006) is a legislative corpus of more than 700 pages, 318 articles (some of which have later been amended) and 45 annexes. The Act:

• Incorporates 8 European Community directives;• Combines in a single document the previous laws regarding similar

areas of discipline, so as to reduce repetition and contradiction; • Repeals 15 laws, 2 legislative decrees and 15 other decrees


The original text consists of 318 articles divided into 6 “compartments": Part I: General; Part II:Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), Strategic

Environmental Assessment (SEA) and Integrated Pollution Prevention & Control (IPPC);

Part III: SOIL conservation, protection and WATER management; Part IV: WASTE management and remediation of contaminated sites; Part V:ATMOSPHERIC EMISSIONS (also D.Lgs. 216/2006 derived from 2003/87/EC directive on EMISSION TRADING); Part VI: Environmental damage.

What does the Competent Enforcement Authority (e.g. Environmental Agency)

monitor?

ARPA

(Regional Environmental Agency) monitors:•Air •Soil•Water•Food•Environment and Health•Physical agents•Sustainability education•Snow•Waste•Weather and climate


What are obligatory controls made for?•Monitoring legal compliance

•Verifying that organizations/firms meet the relevant requirements (e.g. set by IPPC Directive, …)

•Collecting environmental data

•(together with voluntary audits) Defining strategies for territorial planning (e.g. SEA)

Collected data are used by

policy makers at the regional,

national and European level

EMS: “Environmental Management System”

a systematic way of managing immediate and long-term impacts of an organisation’s services, processes and products on the environment.

a way of maintaining order and consistency to address environmental concerns through:

• allocation of resources,

• assignment of responsibility,

• ongoing evaluation of practices, procedures and processes.

The international standard ISO 14001:2004 encourages businesses to implement an

environmental management system, or EMS.

An EMS is driven by the environmental mission of the organisation (Policy statement), is concerned by

the environmental impact of products, activities, and services; sets environmental objectives; meets

legal and regulatory requirements; provides training to employees; and provides for oversight and

auditing procedures.

Many companies find that adhering to the ISO 14001 standard, which is a continuation of the ISO 9000

quality standards, helps to meet the ever-increasing environmental requirements and concerns of the

global marketplace.

EMAS (EC Reg.1221/2009)

The scheme, available to companies since 1995 (EEC Regulation No 1836/93) was originally

restricted to companies in industrial sectors.

EMAS has been open to all economic sectors including public and private services since 2001

(EC Regulation No 761/2001).

In addition, EMAS was strengthened by the integration of ISO 14001 as the environmental

The Eco-audit Eco-Label Committee for EMAS is a body of the Member State of EC

nominated by the government. Organisations that have published the

COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION of 10 July 2003

Guidance for the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 761/2001 (EMAS) concerning the selection and use of

environmental performance indicators (now integrated in the new EMAS Regulation)

The three types of indicators in Europe are:

CHECK: Monitoring and Measurement of INDICATORS

Operational performance indicators (OPIs):

These concentrate on the aspects associated with an organisation's operations including activities,

products or services and can cover such topics as emissions, product and raw material recycling, fuel

consumption of vehicle fleet, or energy usage.Example: Waste

indicatorPublic administration

organisationPrivate

organisation% recycling waste Kg per tonnes of product

6. EMAS: environmental indicators

Management Performance Indicators (MPIs):

These concentrate on the efforts of management to provide the infrastructure for environmental management to succeed and can, among others, cover environmental programmes, objectives and targets, training, incentive schemes, audit frequency, site inspections, administration and community relations.

Example:

Public administration Private organisation

Eg. The number of hours spent on training operators

Number of objectives obtained

Percentage of land planned to remain as or become natural habitat

or green areas (per year)


Environmental Condition Indicators (ECIs):

These give information on the quality of the environment surrounding the organisation or the local, regional or global state of the environment.

Examples include the water quality of a nearby lake, the regional air quality, concentrations of

greenhouse gases or the concentration of certain pollutants in the soil.



Number of new public waste storage areas

The % of waste differentiation obtained

Quality of a river near the waste storage of an

organisation

The % of recycled waste compared to the % of

eliminated waste

Example:


The data generated by an environmental management system will be used in a number of different ways to show the environmental performance of an organisation.

For this purpose organisations may use relevant existing environmental performance indicators.EN

To give a clear understanding of the organisation and its activities, products and services.

INTENT

• maps and diagrams;• annotated aerial photographs;• flow diagrams;• classification (i.e. the NACE code) of the organisation;• name of contact person (if applicable).

GOOD PRACTICE

7. EMAS: Environmental Statement

To present the organisation’s policy commitments and outline how these are implemented throughout the organisation.

INTENT

• include the environmental policy, and possibly an introduction letter, signed by the Chief Executive Officer (CEO);• include an organisational chart with contacts for the environmental representative;• include a diagram showing the EMS structure;• comment on any major changes in environmental policy or management system.

GOOD IDEAS

To give an overall picture of the organisation’s significant environmental aspects and to explain the environmental consequences of its activities, products and services.

INTENT


relate the environmental impacts of the organisation’s activities to the inputs and outputs of its operations in an ‘environmental balance sheet’:

EXAMPLE


To present data on the environmental performance of the organisation and its progress in achieving its objectives and targets. Also to show how the organisation’s environmental performance is changing over time.
