â—Ź In its claims Citizens has asked the Ministry of Environment to review ex officio the file processed by the company and revocation of the authorizations that it has.

â—Ź "Citizens are opposed to the installation of this landfill, both to the expansion that the company is now seeking, and to the one approved by the Popular Party of Cehegín in 2013," said Orange municipal spokesman Jerónimo Moya

The Municipal Citizens Group Cehegín today registered the allegations written by the legal counsel of the training, denouncing various irregularities in the processing of the request for expansion of waste to be treated in the landfill that is being built in the Sierra de la Puerta , 800 meters from the Argos Reservoir.

"The location chosen for the installation of this landfill seems a real nonsense given the proximity of populated areas such as Valentín, Canara, Campillo de Los Jiménez, Algezares or La Pilá;

Or the proximity of the Argos Reservoir, a natural resource, environmental and tourism very underutilized, "said the spokesman of the municipal group, Jerónimo Moya.

To these circumstances is added the proximity to the Sierra del Molino SPA (800 meters), the passage of the royal gorge of Cehegín just because of the location intended for the landfill and the existence in this area of ​​the archaeological site of the Sierra of the door.

"With these allegations we intend to deny the company's request to extend the waste currently authorized because we understand that the procedure that has been followed is not appropriate and in any case would require a new environmental authorization integrated on the basis of a New declaration of general interest that the company should have requested.

We have also requested the ex officio review by the Ministry of the Environment of the complete file that gave rise to the environmental impact statement and the integrated environmental authorization to revoke all authorizations and this landfill never see the light in a location So unfortunate, "said Moya.

Jerónimo Moya stressed "that not only do we oppose this extension, which is against which we present allegations, we also oppose the initial approval of the landfill made by the Popular Party, and has activity license granted on April 26 2013 by José Soria, the former mayor.

As stated in the Integrated Environmental Authorization with which this license is counted and processed, contrary to what has been stated by the PP, it is not a landfill for construction materials, but non-hazardous waste and among other residues can treat sludge Diverse source or non-composted animal and vegetable waste, hence the need to have a leachate tank of more than 1,000 cubic meters.

But above all we oppose because this project was carried out with total obscurantism by the previous government of the PP, with night and treachery, without giving the slightest information to the residents of Cehegín, who now massively manifest their disagreement.

Citizens Cehegín has reiterated its frontal opposition to the location chosen for this landfill and has described as "a real disaster for the interests of Cehegín" its implementation by the economic, health and environmental problems that will cause the residents of Cehegín And its region.
