The project has been screened A/0.
This project presents significant environmental opportunities to enhance waste management and improve waste disposal standards in Istria. Current used landfills/dumps will be closed and/or turned into collection/transfer stations while waste processing and disposal will be centralized at the Regional Waste Management Centre (RWMC). Next to Kastijun landfill (which will be closed) a RWMC will be built which will include apart from mechanical-biological waste pre-treatment and energy recovery, a construction of a sanitary landfill which will comply with national and EU environmental standards. An EIA has been prepared and public information and consultation has been carried out according to national regulations. EBRD will review the EIA and public information and consultation process and assess their compliance with EBRD’s Environmental and Public Information Policies. If there are any gaps identified, those will need to be addressed and the project will need to meet all EBRD requirements for “A” level project. This PSD will be updated once the environmental due-diligence has been completed.
