The autonomous punishable by € 27,000 to Lhicarsa malfunction Regent Mine dump (14/10/2009)

Recognizes the disciplinary proceedings, as was found in inspections carried out by agents of the Nature Protection of the Civil Guard after reports of the association, and by experts from the Directorate General, which have found various irregularities, "... such as the acceptance directly from the landfill of recoverable waste such as mattresses, refrigerators, shopping carts, sofas, armchairs, etc., without any pretreatment, despite having previously passed through the sorting plant" .

Indeed, despite the penalty filed more than three years ago about allegations of the Guardia Civil and ASEAN in relation to the mine dump Regent SEPRONA reports highlighted that was in contravention of the Environmental Impact Statement: "In front of landfill waste could be found such as mattresses, metal carts typical whole malls, refrigerators and metal appliances in general, automotive tires without being chopped whole, furniture and home furnishings such as sofas, chairs, etc ... all sorts cartons and most household garbage bags are unopened.

It is important to see how these residues are on the front of the landfill having gone through the sorting plant and are not even torn, broken, crushed or rolled, which means that despite being dumped by the collection trucks plant selection, no prior treatment before being again loaded onto trucks and dumped directly into landfill "..

ANSE considers the penalty as "ridiculous" (almost as low as possible as a grave breach) if one takes into account the extent of the breach, and the consequences in the form of clogging a landfill that had to have worked for 15 years, regardless of possible contamination of groundwater and the loss of tens of thousands of tons of recyclable materials.

In addition, it had sanctioned earlier by the Lhicarsa serious breaches of environmental legislation in this area.

The resolution, however, is silent on other violations reported by ANSE, and also reflected in the report of SEPRONA, such as lack of revegetation of the former landfill.

Remember that the Director of ANSE, Pedro Garcia, received a false report of the Director of the Waste Treatment Plant of Lhicarsa, for burglary, accused of taking photos of the landfill from inside the facility, which was withdrawn minutes complaint by the time he had to testify in courts of Cartagena.

ANSE regrets that, as happened with the previous sanction, Lhicarsa not meet one of the paragraphs of the resolution, which states that "... the wrongdoer must restore the situation altered by it to its original state ...."

To this should be mobilized hundreds of thousands of tons of garbage that have been improperly buried in the mine environment Regent, when the landfill is under seal and has already launched a new, third in few years.

The Association considers it unacceptable that the Autonomous Community has not taken into account that the report of SEPRONA also documented that the landfill, approved only for rejected from treatment, recycling and composting of municipal waste in Cartagena, receives the other as the Union or San Javier, CESPA Management, Containers FCC, Saica Environment, Matthew Mateo, Mar Menor, GS Spain, etc ...

As if this were not enough, at the stage of investigation of the case, Lhicarsa had not brought to the Autonomous log book of waste entering the landfill after spending per plant, and that apparently does not exist.

Association responsible to the City of Cartagena, Lhicarsa partner with FCC, the bad performance of Regent Mine dump, on which is turning a blind eye for years, promoting their rapid sedimentation, and wasting the funding from the Union Europe.

Remember that the weir land was not expropriated, but leased to the owners (Alfonso Garcia and Mariano Roca) by a large sum of money.

Other consequences of the mismanagement of the landfill waste and Regent Mine have been the increase of municipal debt for the construction of a new landfill, when there should be about 10 years of use in the Regent Mine, extra costs paid by the inhabitants city through the receipt of waste.

Who told ANSE allegations that the waste plant and the landfill was a model for good performance?.

"Assume someone responsible for this issue?.
