Toxicity:
Not included:

• Eco-toxicity • Local flora and fauna
Waste: • Area covered
• Bulk waste
• Slags and ashes
Resource consumption
• Hazardous waste dealt with separately

included in the assessment.
• Recovered materials are considered as avoided
production, which means that the corresponding
impacts are credited.
