(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 28 - The mayor of Rome, Virginia Raggi, has asked to prepare an urgent order to impose the reopening of the Albano Laziale landfill.
"The inertia of the Lazio Region - said the mayor, explaining the reasons behind the choice - forces us to make this decision to avoid the worsening of the crisis and health and hygiene consequences for people".
According to what is learned, as mayor of the Metropolitan City, Raggi would use commissioner powers to allow the reopening of the landfill in the province of Rome, for the potential conferment of 200 thousand tons of waste. "Out of five landfills planned by the Region, only two - added the mayor - are active. And in August the Civitavecchia one will also close. They have not thought of a serious alternative. They unload the problems and their inefficiency on others". In recent weeks, Raggi has repeatedly requested the reopening of the landfills present in Lazio and still large, in order to offer outlets for the delivery of waste, which remains on the street due to the lack of sites where to dispose of it.
