Practitioners of European Union environmental law are faced with a substantial and growing body of legislation and case law in the areas of waste and waste management. It is regularly the subject of preliminary rulings by the European Court of Justice and has led to a number of infringement procedures by the European Commission.

The Handbook of EU Waste Law provides a comprehensive overview of the Regulations, Directives and case law in this area and an authoritative guide to how the law is applied in practice. The texts of the legislation and case law will be included in a companion volume on Cases and Materials in EU Waste Law. It is intended that the handbook will further be supplemented annually with an overview of the most important developments.
