The city of Casablanca will soon acquire land to host a waste recovery and sorting center. After years of delay, waiting and especially a landfill that has reached its limits for a while, the City Council is likely to take action.
In this sense, the mayor’s office of the metropolis has included in the agenda of the next session of the Council an important point. Thus, the elected officials of Casablanca are called to examine and adopt an item on the agenda of their new session concerning the acquisition of no less than 260 hectares in the province of Mediouna. This land will accommodate the treatment center and recovery of household waste and similar.
Indeed, the City Council should be assisted by the Directorate General of Local Government (DGCT) within the Ministry of the Interior. As a reminder, the City Council had inaugurated in late 2021 a new controlled landfill to receive household waste and similar, on an area of 35 hectares and a cost of 54 million dirhams.
This landfill, which will receive about 4,000 tons of waste daily, is equipped with a landfill basin covering an area of 11 hectares, a leachate collection basin covering an area of 1.5 hectares and a capacity of 38,000 cubic meters, and a rainwater collection basin with a capacity of 9,500 cubic meters.
