Towards A Toxic-Free Environment: Organizers of B3 Producing Areas Now Required to Provide TPSSS-B3

Back in 2020, the government introduced Regulation of the Government No. 27 of 2020 on the Management of Specific Garbage (“Regulation 27/2020”). As its title suggests, this framework set out detailed procedures for the reduction and/or handling of garbage in ways that require specific management, including garbage containing hazardous and toxic substances (Bahan Berbahaya dan Beracun – “B3”) (“B3 Garbage”) and waste containing B3 (“B3 Waste”).[1] It should be noted that Hukumonline’s Legal Research and Analysis Team previously summarized the various specific garbage management mandates that feature under Regulation 27/2020 in the following edition of Indonesian Legal Brief (“ILB”): “Management Procedures for Specific Garbage Finally Introduced”.
