According to the head of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment Yuri Marchenko, currently operating normally be considered extremely dangerous system of collecting waste from businesses and organizations of the region and the system of collection of biological waste.

Partially funded by the authorities of investment costs for the year will be collected 320m ³ of waste glass - such figure estimated annual volume of waste glass in the area.

The deputies decided to support the project. The Committee invited the Government to increase the total amount of financing long-term target program "Development of a waste management system of production and consumption in the Novosibirsk region for 2012-2016" and the additional funds for the organization in the field of selective collection of municipal solid waste, including the collection of glass.
