Common-Aimag agreement for the former San Marino Ambiente landfill
The municipal administration has renewed and integrated the agreement with Aimag for the post-operational management of the municipal solid waste landfill in via Bertuzza in San Marino, owned by the municipality, depleted for years but subject to maintenance obligations: among the updates approved by the City Council, also the reduction of spending to 30,000 euros per year, including VAT, for 2023 and 2024, instead of the estimated figure of around 38,000 for the previous three years. The same amount that is estimated will also be budgeted for the years 2025, 2026 and 2027, “subject to any higher expenses deriving from events of an extraordinary nature or from regulatory changes, to be recorded in the final balance for each year”: for example greater or lesser production of leachate (the liquids that form in landfills) due to anomalous seasonal trends, i.e. particularly dry or rainy; or the need to carry out maintenance interventions and activities of an extraordinary nature.
(continued)
The duration of the new agreement is set until 31 December 2026, linked to the management of the landfill in via Valle in Fossoli, owned by Aimag, activated after the closure of San Marino: at that date, in fact, it is presumed that even the Fossoli plant, once the final plant arrangement works have been completed and tested, will be definitively closed and will pass to post-operational management. By national law, the post-operational management of any municipal waste landfill must last at least thirty years.
