The European Commission has decided to launch an infringement procedure against Bulgaria over inadequate waste management infrastructure in its capital, Sofia. The shortcomings, which include the lack of a system and installations for the recovery and disposal of household waste, are posing a serious risk to human health and the environment. Bulgaria should have complied with the relevant EU waste legislation since its accession on 1 January 2007. |
