"Cooperation memorandums were signed between the Agency and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development to attract investment to the solid wastes management sector. Justifications of investments to the pilot projects are planned to be developed in 14 cities of the country," Olga Titova said.
As the Agency informs, the pilot projects will be launched in Aktobe, Atyrau, Karaganda, Abai, Saran, Shakhtinsk, Kostanay, Pavlodar, Taldykorgan, Taraz, Ust-Kamenogorsk, Kokshetau, etc.
These efforts will allow to develop specific mechanisms of solid wastes management in Kazakhstan and provide investors with one more sphere for investments.
"Implementation of the projects is expected to result in development of a specific mechanism of wastes management in every region which will include interconnected technologies and efficient system of tariff setting. It will kindle interest of all participants to achieve the goal set by the President on reduction of the consumption of wastes and introduction of the system of separate collection of wastes," O.Titova resumed. |
