Gospodarowanie odpadami komunalnymi jako zadanie gminy
Streszczenie
The article is an attempt of classification of the basic duties of municipalities to achieve the
overall task of waste management. Amendments to the Act to maintain cleanliness and order in
the municipalities of July 2011, introduced a revolutionary change in municipal waste management
system. The most significant (new) elements of these regulations are the acquisition by the
municipality (under the law) of the power of municipal waste facilities and providing municipalities
with the instruments making possible to direct waste to specific installations for further
processing. Municipalities must create an organizational and technical system providing the
possibility of proper waste management, which involves the implementation of a number of
specific tasks carried out by various legal instruments, in particular the acts of local law, organizational
activities, etc.
