(2) Subject to the conditions specified in sub-paragraph (3), the storage of waste of a type identified by the six-digit EWC Code in Column 1 of Table 5A and referred to by the corresponding waste description in Column 2 of that Table if the waste is to be reused or used for the purpose of— (a) an activity specified in Column 3 of Table 5; or (b) any other recovery operation. (3) The specified conditions are that— (a) the total volume of each type of waste on site at any one time does not exceed the limits specified in Column 5 of Table 5 and Column 4 of Table 5A in relation to that type of waste; (b) the combined total volume of all wastes on site at any one time does not exceed 100m³ (whether before, during or after processing); (c) the waste arrives at the place where the activity is carried on unmixed with any other type of waste; (d) each type of waste is treated and stored separately; (e) no waste is stored for longer than 12 months; (f) the site has, and is operated in accordance with, planning permission, where such permission is required; and (g) the activity complies with the additional specified conditions in Column 4 of Table 5 and Column 3 of Table 5A.
