FormenteraThe Island Council of Formentera has opened the public consultation period prior to the drafting of the regulation that will govern the island's service for the collection, reception, classification, recovery, and management of construction and demolition waste (CDW) on the island. The initiative, approved by the Governing Board on October 16, aims to gather opinions and contributions from the public and the sectors involved before drafting the regulations.

This facility is intended to facilitate the reception, classification, and control of waste generated in Formentera, as well as its subsequent management through authorized facilities.
