New York - Waste Transport by Boat and Train
02/08/2006
(recycle.de)
After long hesitation the city administration agreed to the plan from
the mayor, Bloomberg: Half of the household waste should be
transported by boat and train to landfills. As a result the number of
freight vehicle transport kilometres within the city alone would be
reduced by 3.5 million annually. The disposal costs would, however,
increase from 77 million to 107 million US dollars. The households
and public buildings of New York produce 12,000 tons of waste daily.
The reorganisation has no effect on the 38,000 tons of trade waste
produced in the city daily. EUWID, Recycling und Entsorgung.

State aid: Commission concludes that two loans to recyclable waste collection company VAOP do not constitute aid
25/07/2006
(europa.eu)
The European Commission has closed an in-depth investigation under EC
Treaty state aid rules, concluding that two loans to the Dutch
recyclable waste collection company VAOP , one granted by the Dutch
bank BNG and one granted by several municipalities, do not constitute
state aid. On the first loan, the Commission found that a privately
owned bank had offered at the same time financing to VAOP, that BNG
had requested adequate securities and that the financial terms of the
loan do not point to state aid. On the second loan, the Commission
found that the municipalities concerned had certain existing claims
against VAOP . Transforming a part of these claims into a loan was
more favourable to them than letting VAOP go bankrupt. Accordingly,
they have acted as typical creditors in a market economy and their
behaviour does not constitute state aid.
