Campsites and PRLs are governed by regulations, standards, laws, etc.
The authorization to operate a campsite requires the installation and maintenance of equipment, which requires compliance with a few rules.
1 - The land must be equipped with facilities for the collection and disposal of household waste. With the provision of sealed bins of sufficient capacity.
2 - The sanitary equipment made available to customers must be kept in a constant state of good working order and cleanliness.
Selective sorting in your campsite:
• Law of 15/07/1975: first law organizing the collection and treatment of waste in France. Waste collection, transport and treatment operations must be carried out under clean conditions in order to avoid “any risk to the environment and to human health”. This law establishes the founding principle of “polluter pays”.
• Law of 13/07/1992: also called the Royal law. It aims to strengthen the provisions of the 1975 law and requires companies to recycle their waste. From 1992, waste represents a source of energy and raw materials that we no longer have the right to waste or destroy.
• Law of 12/07/2010 makes the implementation of sorting and collection of biowaste and edible oil waste by large producers mandatory (threshold for application of the Decree in 2016: 10 tonnes per year of biowaste, 60L of edible oil).
• Article L 541-2 of the Environmental Code: each company is responsible for the management of the waste it produces even when it is transferred to a third party for treatment. The company must ensure that its disposal complies with the regulations.
• Decree No. 2016-288 of 03/10/2016: obligation for companies to better sort their paper, metal, plastic, glass and wood waste in order to promote their reuse and recycling. They must separate these materials from the rest of their waste, either by establishing sorting at source or by subsequent sorting in an automated center.
Accessibility for people with reduced mobility
- Order of August 1, 2006 - All establishments receiving the public and facilities open to the public must be accessible to PRM (People with Reduced Mobility) since January 1, 2015.
- Order of January 15, 2007
The equipment and street furniture present on the pedestrian path are within a minimum volume to be detected in order to ensure the safety of blind and partially sighted people.
- Ad'AP device
Given the work that remains to be done, a system called Ad'AP (Programmed Accessibility Agendas) has been set up to grant a deferral to public establishments and facilities that do not meet the deadline of 01/01/2015. This file must be accepted and validated by the prefecture. After validation, these establishments will undertake to respect the new deadline imposed, which may extend from 1 to 6 years, under penalty of financial sanctions. If no Ad'AP application is made, ERPs that are not accessible to disabled people on 1 January 2015 will be subject to criminal sanctions.
