There will be no incinerator in the protection zone of the spa town, the ministers decided. The turn is the investor – we are
Construction was stopped by the resistance of the inhabitants and the authorities.
Hontianske Tesar, Dudince. Energy Reuse Center near Dudiniec will not build. The Košice company Granya wanted to build it in the village of Hontianske Tesáre.
The official written decision has not yet been delivered to municipalities. This can only happen after the investor’s intention is withdrawn and the environmental impact assessment (EIA), which still lasts.
Despite the promise of ministers, the inhabitants of the surrounding municipalities and towns concerned and continue to undergo pressure on the competent and writing of the petition.
They will officially hand over it to the Ministry of the Environment.
The project was stopped
« We will wait for the final evaluation. It took a good Directionin favor of our inhabitants and the surrounding area. I agree with the statement of Minister Tarab that to build a incinerator near the healing springs is a pure foolishness, ”said the mayor of Hontianske Tesáre Štefan Foltán.
Ministers of the Environment and Health also took a negative opinion on the planned construction. The health sector eventually changed the decree, which stopped the project.
The incinerator at the spa first checked, and two years in the requirements abandoned. Foolishness, says Taraba Read
The construction of a incinerator near Dudiniec is also not recommended by the sections of water, climate and air changes and the circulatory economy, which belong to the Ministry of the Environment or the State Spa Commission of the Ministry.
According to the Communication Department of the Ministry of Health, it is forbidden to carry out all activities that could negatively affect the physical, chemical, microbiological and biological properties of natural healing water and natural mineral water in protection zones.
« Like its usable amount, health flawlessness or the yield of natural healing sources and natural mineral sources.
We will hear about the incinerators yet
The promise of ministers is also enjoyed by the CEO of Spa Dudince Slavomir Brake, who could be significantly affected by the incinerator. But the overall waste problem is not only in it.
« Although the incinerator will not be, but the long -term problem with legal and illegal waste landfills has remained in the region. These are what is actually the most threatening the natural healing springs in Dudince and its surroundings, » he said.
In his words, none of the competent has commented on the question of what will happen to existing waste landfills.
« And how we will prevent the waste and harmful substances from leaking and not endangering the groundwater, including unique natural healing sources. But especially where we will put the waste after all landfills will soon be closed! This is the real nature of the problem
There is a discussion in Slovakia on the construction of new energy recovery facilities. There are currently two such devices – In Bratislava and Košicethe construction of others is also planned in the future.
Investors argue that the construction of incinerators is a more efficient and greener way of waste management compared to landfilling. Modern devices are also intended to produce heat and electricity, reducing the burden on the environment.
Ganya also spoke in the intention. She argued that she could produce energy for approximately 25,000 households, but mayor Foltán omitted them, whether they had an idea of how many households are in their basin.
« We do not have so much in the whole district, maybe they would have to connect the district of Banská Štiavnica to have it at all. If we were a village somewhere near Banská Bystrica, I will not even think about it and understand it, » he added.
It would endanger the existence of a medicinal source
The position of such a center would mainly affect the spa town at the foot of the Krupin basin. His Mayor Dušan Silver expressed frustration from the very beginning, when the investor submitted his intention for the first time.
The company was planning to process approximately 130,000 tonnes of waste per year. In the district of Krupina, the volume of waste is only in a few thousand, which is not even a quarter of the planned volume.
« We did not fight against the incinerator, but against the incinerator at the spa town in the protection zone. I emphasized this fact everywhere. Let our 5000 tons are exported for the whole district for some hundred kilometers, but we will not carry tons of waste to us, » he added.
According to the population census in 2011, Dudince was the smallest city in Slovakia according to the population. (Source: FB/City Dudince)Illegal landfills around Dudiniec does not register, the city regularly monitors the waste management and organizes joint “cleaning” meetings.
« We have solved the problem with illegal landfills almost ten years ago. The landfills from the surroundings are closed and sealed as it should have been four years, » said the Mayor, adding that Dudiniec waste is exported to Veľký Krtíš. It also works in the village of Hontianske Tesáre.
“When the legislation comes that the landfills will be closed and the combustion will be ordered, we will carry it to the nearest incinerators, which will arise. In the number of waste produced, I think it has logic to stand somewhere around Zvolena or Banská Bystrica”He added.
According to him, the spa town regularly takes care of exporting and composting waste. It also has a collection yard and praises the sorting rate. They are between 50 and 60 percent per year.
Taraba also commented on the bear tragedy. He claims that a flat regulation is needed Read
