CALVIÀ TOWN HALL ACTIVATES A PROTOCOL OF ACTION TO ELIMINATE THE ILLEGAL DUMPING SITES OF THE MUNICIPALITY
The Local Police, Calvià 2000 and the Department of Environment have been working jointly for 2 weeks to detect and eliminate these dumping sites and locate offenders.
Calvià Town Hall has started up a Plan of action for the clean up of dumping in undeveloped areas in order to prevent the increase of these prohibited behaviours and punishable by municipal ordinance. It is about illegal dumping sites that have been detected in the area.
Thus, a monitoring group composed of the Local Police, the Town Hall's Department of Environment and the public company Calvià 2000 has been created to detect this type of dumping and try to locate those responsible.
As a result of the first actions, a recent dumping of debris has been located in the area of Cap Falcó. The alleged offenders have been identified. The alleged offenders of a concrete dumping of debris in the area of Costa d'en Blanes have also been located and identified. Both actions have been referred to the Department of Infractions for the corresponding disciplinary proceedings, notwithstanding that, as a result of subsequent investigations, other nature responsibilities are conducted. In addition, the Local Police is progressing in the investigations to locate the offenders of an illegal dumping in Cala Vinyes.
On the other hand, Calvià Town Hall appreciates the cooperation of the citizenship and encourages to report these cases, while wants to remind the residents of the municipality that Calvià 2000 has a waste, pruning and branches home collection service and which are removed within 24 hours after calling 971 69 92 02 or filling out a form in the web www.calvia2000.es.
In addition to the home collection, workers report the junk found in the public way and which has been abandoned in urban areas and without notice, so it can be collected in the shortest time possible.
Finally, Calvià 2000 reminds that it has a deixalleria where these and other types of waste can also be placed.
