Chisinau, 30 July /MOLDPRES/ - A modern waste deposit will be constructed in the Floritoaia Veche settlement, western Ungheni district and waste transfer stations will be built in Nisporeni and Niscani (Calarasi district) in 2025. Also, all unauthorized waste deposits will be closed, the households will be endowed with dumping carts and a regional sanitation operator will be nominated.     

The details of the works today were discussed by Environment Minister Sergiu Lazarencu, who made a visit to Ungheni. At the visit, the minister discussed important subjects on the management of waste and other environment-related subjects with mayors of the district. The Ungheni district, along with the districts of Calarasi and Nisporeni, are part of the Waste Management Region 5 (RMD 5) and at the moment, it records the best results within the Solid Waste in Moldova national project.
