What is EPER?
EPER review in 2007.
Guidance Document for EPER implementation.
In April 2005, EPER won an award for best new electronic information source in 2004 at European level see.

EPER required countries to report only every third year and included information from just two reporting years- 2001 and 2004.
In order to allow the EU to ratify and implement the Protocol, EPER has to be replaced with a PRTR.
For example, EPER shows that 3,029 large pig and poultry farms are responsible for 78% of ammonia emissions into the air.
By 2000 all the necessary details were worked out andoutlined in the Commission Decision to establish EPER 2000/479/EC.
In order to have recently updated data available in the EPER register, the Commission will examine the possibility for annual reporting by Member States.
Just like EPER, the European PRTR will provide information about releases of pollutants from specific industrial facilities and activities, and by country.
The European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register(European PRTR)is due to replace EPER and will be published in 2009 based on 2007 data.
In order to collect the emission data in the EPER national governments shall provide data to the Commission with a copy to the European Environment Agency.
Clean Air for Europe programme(CAFE): an important goal for CAFE, as far as dioxin emissions to air are concerned, is to ensure that the various inventories(EIONET,CORINAIR, EPER, EMEP) are harmonised.
In close cooperation with the Commission, the EEA has managed the process of collecting the data for EPER from the countries and has been involved in the design and development of the website.
The EPER will only be a valuable register for public information when it offers recent and updated data, which demands a tight time schedule for reporting by all parties involved.
In close cooperation with the Commission,the EEA has managed the process of collecting the data for EPER from Member States, Norway and Hungary and has been heavily involved in the design and development of the website.
The EPER will be used as a public register to provide environmental information on industrial activities covered by the IPPC Directive and has the following objectives related to different groups of users.
In parallel with the ongoing efforts of the Commission and the Member States to implement the first andsecond reporting cycles of EPER, the expansion of the register into a fully-integrated and comprehensive PRTR with annual reporting is being prepared.
This is important in that the EPER review is a valuable analysis of industrial pollution data and serves as an important policy-making tool in the field of pollution prevention and control.
Therefore, industry will report to the Member States, and the reported data shall be provided by the Member States to the Commission and will be stored in the EPER becoming the European database with emission data for activities as reported according to the requirements of the EPER Decision.
EPER already implements many key elements of the Protocol: harmonised reporting rules, public accessibility by electronic means, broad coverage of sources(industrial facilities) and polluting substances.
There are two aspects, however, which differ in the proposed regulation: the first concerns the list of substances contained in the Water Framework Directive(WFD), with the addition of six new ones, and the second is the recommendation to bring the entryinto force forward to 2007, to coincide with the third and final EPER report.
Both the public and industry can use the EPER data to compare the environmental performance of individual facilities or industrial sectors in different countries.
We see EPER as a stepping stone for the future European Pollutant Release and Transfer Registers, an important information source for all within the Shared Environmental Information System for Europe.”.
This register will be more comprehensive than EPER since it will cover more than 91 substances emitted from industrial installations in 65 different sectors of activity, and from other sources such as road traffic, domestic heating and agriculture.
EPER enables European citizens to exercise their'right to know', allowing them, for example, to see how much pollution large industries in their neighbourhoods generate and to compare this with the situation in other parts of Europe.
The European Commission will receive the EPER emission reports from the Member States(both emission data by facility and the aggregated data), check them on consistency and make them publicly accessible on the Internet.
EPER is also a tool to monitor the effectiveness of the Directive, in terms of reduced emissions to air and water, although it is impossible to assess with any degree of certainty the decreases that occur as a result of the Directive separately from those that occur as a result of voluntary actions or other legislation.
