THE PROCESS OF CLOSING DOWN RURAL LANDFILLS CASE STUDY: NEAMT COUNTY
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2011, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Landfilling is the main method for municipal waste disposal in Romania. Access to sanitation services are limited on rural territory and that leads to uncontrolled waste disposal with negative implications on the geosystem.Implementation of EU acquis on waste disposal from rural areas requires local authorities to close the landfills by July 16, 2009. Following this deadline, municipalities are obliged to provide waste collection and transportation to the existing urban landfills. Under these conditions,this article is proposing a territorial review of closing and rehabilitation of rural landfills from Neamt county. Also, this paper analyzed the existing environmental dysfunctions supported by field observations.
