Main goal of the project
(up to 800 characters)
Phase I is the priority project. Justification for this phase is that the site planned for construction of the regional landfill has been in use as a municipal dumpsite as of 2001 and three cells have been covered with the solid waste while the fourth one is presently in use. Further use of non-sanitary dumpsite would have a side effect on environment as well as on the construction.
