The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) issued a revised position statement in June 2014 which recognised the PAS110 as a valid specification in Scotland, provided certain additional provisions are satisfied; these were covered in SEPA Position Statement - WST-PS-016 - version 4 - Issued June 2014.

SEPA has revised their end-of-waste regulatory position statement for digestate (and compost). The revised statement issued in February 2017 (SEPA Position Statement – WST-PS-016 – version 5 – Issued February 2017) introduces additional standards and a phased-in approach to reducing the levels of plastic contained within digestate:

• From 1st December 2017: plastic limit 50% of current PAS110
• From 1st December 2018: plastic limit 25% of current PAS110
• From 1st December 2019: plastic limit 8% of current PAS110

SEPA released a food waste management scheme which sets out their expectations across the food waste chain. These are:

• To achieve high quality recycling practises
• To promote the Scottish Governments Zero Waste Plan

This scheme aims to highlight that persons involved in producing and/or managing waste have a legal duty to promote the expectations set out by the Scottish government. This can be encouraged in ways such as:

• Food surplus redistribution in the animal feed sector.
• PAS 110 compliant outlets producing anaerobic digestion of source segregated food waste.  If these products are compliant with SEPA’s regulations, they may be spread on land without waste management control.

The article further details the obligations that food waste producers, food waste collectors, food waste treatment facilities and land managers have towards the scheme.
