Waste fishing

Recycling debris receive budgetary support
In the Murmansk region, there is no legal mechanism for establishing uniform rules for collecting, processing and utilization of waste.
Decided to fill the gap Murmansk Oblast Duma deputies.
Duma Committee on Environmental and agro-industrial complex proposed by legislators at the next sitting of the Duma vote on first reading for the bill, stipulates the powers of regional government authorities in the field of waste production and consumption.
As told "RG" deputy chairman of the regional Committee on Natural Resources and Environmental Protection, Theodore Schweitzer, in addition to the main part of the document will stipulate how development and implementation of regional programmes targeted, as well as providing financial assistance from the regional budget to the organizations and individual entrepreneurs who are engaged collection, treatment, recovery and recycling garbage.
Simply put, it is to develop a unified policy for the entire region on -
rascheniya with waste. In doing so, priority is given not the traditional "warehousing" debris on ranges, and its disposition to date. In fact, mountains of waste that occur every day in cities and towns of the Kola Peninsula are invited to choose valuable faction - paper, glass, metal, plastic and send them to recycling companies. And just what is left after such a class-adjustments, will be delivered to landfills.
Duma Committee on Environmental consider "waste" bill a second time. Several months ago, MPs rejected it, considering that the document is not enough soderzhatelen. At this time the people's elected for it yet voted.
Still, representatives from enterprises engaged in export and recycling, left many questions to the bill. In particular, the incineration plant specialists have not found it a word of support for projects to use waste as an alternative fuel. Murmansk plant annually burns 86 tons of debris, vyrabatyvaya "byproduct" - cheap pairs, which can be used for heating homes. But now, 12 years in the regional center can not solve - who will be this cheap home heating fuel.
