The Tenerife Cabildo has approved the definite plans for Waste Disposal in Tenerife. The Vice President of the island council, José Manuel Bermúdez, said yesterday that the plans have wide consent with all the sectors implicated in the decision. The decision will mean the siting of a waste materials incinerator in the municipality of Arico, given the present location there of the island's "environmental complex" ... not sure if they mean PIRS, the island's landfill site, which is definitely near there. The incinerator is expected to be operational in 2016, and is being presented as a sustainable model for the treatment of the island's waste materials.
