(27.10.2015).Today, the Minister of Environment and Physical PlanningNurhan Izairi visited the Municipality of Arachinovo and together with the Mayor Brahim Ajvazi went to inspect the condition of the illegal waste dump site at the very entrance to the populated place. The issue of this dump site was raised again during recent days due to its permanent filling caused by illegal and uncontrolled throwing of municipal waste by the residents of Arachinovo and problems faced by the municipality and public utility regarding this waste cleaning out.
In his statement for the media, Minister Izairi pointed out that the problem of the dump site in Arachinovo will be settled in an integrated manner through establishment of regional landfill in Skopje region. Financial resources for this purpose have been provided from European IPA funds. However, considering that the procedure for construction of regional landfill in the Northeastern planning region is in much more advanced stage, which assumes procurement of adequate mechanization, Minister Izairi announced the possibility for its use to solve the problem of Arachinovo as well.
