The Regional Executive has approved that the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Environment provide 1,818,716 euros to the Agrarian Transformation Company (Tragsa) to continue the work of adaptation, sealing and closure of the Abanilla landfill.
This new action basically consists of covering with vegetal earth and revegetation of the vessels and areas with waste, previous waterproofing with clays and geotextile.
After the same, the closure of the landfill will be declared, initiating the post-closure monitoring plan.
Since October 2015, the Autonomous Community has invested 3,338,563 euros in emergency actions in the landfill and affected areas of Abanilla, which include the works of adaptation to the Landfill Directive made and the costs of leachate management.
These actions are a forced subsidiary execution at the expense of the commercial company Proambiente SL, immersed in a bankruptcy proceeding.
The deadline to complete the works is 12 months.
