Conveyancing of Waste in Civil Rights

Waste can be an object of civil rights. The article defines such notions as production, consumption, and subsoil wastes in civil rights, as well as clarifies the subjective and objective utility of wastes for civil turnover. The right of waste ownership is associated with its limited negotiability. It is established when the waste generator is obliged to remove it as stipulated by the corresponding norms. The legislator distinguishes between the owner of waste and the generator of waste when calculating the environmental tax. As a general rule, conveyancing does not exempt the generator from making the designated payments. The sphere of subsoil waste has some specifics in this regard due to the recent changes in the special legislation. Despite its objective usefulness, subsoil waste often remains beyond objective turnover and sustainable use. The analysis of the legal relations in subsoil use reveals that licensing is a dispositive transaction sub modo. Due to the separation of the ownership right to subsoil wastes and minerals in them, conveyancing waste to a third party may be problematic.
