Rajka, situated in Hungary at the tri-border area between Hungary, Austria and Slovakia, will see its old garbage dump recultivated, and the operation cost is 400 thousands HUF, approx, 1500 EUR , announced the independent mayor Vince Kiss on the 6th of November 2013.
The project sponsored by the New Széchenyi Plan (Új Széchenyi Terv), is needed because the liquids filtering from the garbage represent a danger for the local water supply. It has been closed in 1997 but before, the garbage dump has been used for nearly 40 years as a deposit of totally 20.000 m3 of domestic waste, that now needs to be selected, sorted and transported or used at place, in order to make the area proper to agricultural activity again by the spring 2015.source: MTI, the Hungarian news agency
