Italy regulations

In Italy, regulations which protect waters from pollution, do not provide specifically for an asbestos contribution (as natural mineral fibre) to water pollution but only for settling and total suspended solids increasing (points 6 and 7 in Tables A and C, law No. 319 [1].

Around 2000, the regulations should become more severe. In this area, a European limit of benzene of 3% appears very probable certain countries such as Germany are even looking at 1%. In Italy, it was decided towards the end of 1991, to limit benzene to 2.5% for leaded and unleaded fuels in the seven largest cities characterized by having heavy atmospheric pollution concurrently, in these same cities, the overall aromatic contents of gasolines should not exceed 33%. 

Procedures for the collection of whole blood are similar throughout the world. An interval from at least 8 weeks (United States) to 12 weeks (United Kingdom) is required between a donation of 450 mL blood, which yields about 250 mL plasma. In some countries a smaller volume of blood is collected, eg, 350—400 mL in Italy, Greece, and Turkey and as Httie as 250 mL in some Asian countries (147). Regulations concerning plasmapheresis donations vary more widely across the world eg, up to 300 mL of plasma can be taken in Europe in contrast to 1000 mL in the United States, both on a weekly basis. Consequentiy, both the mode of donation and the country in which it is given can have a profound effect on plasma collection (Table 6).

The differences found in the application of different RP systems cloud the differences between a public financing system and a price-cap regulation system. An RP becomes a price cap when the decision either to include a drug within public financing or to exclude it depends on its price. The use of RP in New Zealand and Italy is a good illustration of this situation. Italy introduced a very restrictive RP system in 1996. In this case, the maximum... 

At the member state level, some countries, such as the Netherlands, a pioneer in the protection of soil, have their own national policies and regulations for the management of contaminated soils that were adopted before the Soil Framework Directive [132], Protection guidelines vary from country to country, and specific legislation for soil contamination only exists for some member states, including the Netherlands, Italy, Austria, France, Belgium, Germany, the UK, Denmark, Spain and Finland [128],...

Strategies to prevent contamination by pesticides are specified quite differently in national regulations. The maximum percentage of fodder brought in from other organie farms and eonventional farms must not exceed 10-50% and 5-15% i.e. for ruminants, respeetively (KRAV Soil Association AMAB, Italy 1997) in order to avoid imdesired inputs of pesticides to organic animal produce. 

Because of the differential impact of escolar- or oilfish-related problems around the world, and also variation in individual susceptibility, different governments continue to promulgate only modest regulation on both fish. Only three countries, Japan, South Korea, and Italy, completely ban the trading and import of the two fish, while other countries only issue special guidelines or warnings toward them (Table 1.2). It therefore remains that the majority of countries do not have any regulations for the two fish.

The regulation passed (in Italy) in 1894 defines the conclusions to be drawn from certain of the estimations mentioned above. Thus, as regards the volatile acid number butters the fat of which requires not less than 26 c.c. of N/10-alkali are to be regarded as genuine, when there are no contrary indications less than 20 c.c. indicates adulteration values between 20 and 26 are suspicious, when the other data (age of the butter, season of the year, etc.) do not permit of a decision. In such a case it is advisable, where possible, to examine a genuine sample of butter from the same source, provided that this can be obtained shortly after the suspected butter. 

Italy can be considered a leading country in the security of gas supply and safety of gas lines. The Italian market is well developed and the new regulations permit to invest in safety and research to improve both the efficiency and safety of the network system. Very advanced technologies are used to guarantee the safe supply of gas to the industry.
