New warning by EU over Cyprus’ incorrect utility of Landfill Directive

The European Fee on Thursday despatched a brand new letter to Cyprus calling for the right utility of the bloc’s Landfill Directive and giving Nicosia two months to supply a passable response.

And if no passable response is given, Philenews mentioned on Friday, the Fee warns that it might refer the difficulty to the European Courtroom of Justice.

Particularly, the Fee calls on Cyprus to correctly implement the waste landfill directive and the Waste Framework Directive.

The waste landfill directive establishes landfill requirements to keep away from opposed results on human well being, water, soil and air.

The directive obliges member states to take measures to make sure that solely handled waste is disposed off in landfills. That is in accordance with the Inexperienced Deal’s zero air pollution objectives.
