PUBLIC NOTICE TO ALL ENVIRONMENTAL EXPERTS INTEGRATION OF EXTENDED PRODUCER RESPONSIBILITY IN EIA/EA REPORTS

Summary

Kenya's National Environment Management Authority (NEMA) is implementing Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) to tackle pollution and environmental impacts from products and their waste. Following the Sustainable Waste Management Act of 2022, NEMA now requires environmental experts to integrate EPR obligations into all Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and Environmental Audit (EA) reports. This initiative aims to ensure producers take responsibility for the entire lifecycle of their products, fostering a circular economy approach to waste management.
