I have often wondered how waste management is done in Bacau, how waste is collected in other areas, but also what fractions we collect. After searching on the internet and making requests under Law 544\/2001 on free access to information of public interest, we found the answers to our questions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who is in charge of waste management?<\/b><\/p>\n

The delegated sanitation operator in charge of waste collection in Bacau is Soma Bacau. They are responsible for the collection and transportation of household and recyclable waste in the municipality of Bac\u0103u and neighboring or adjacent areas of the county.<\/span><\/p>\n

On their website you can find collection days by area, information about what they collect and when they collect, and you can also find a link to their app on Google Play and Appstore <\/span>https:\/\/somabacau.ro\/<\/span><\/a> . <\/b>Soma also have their Facebook page where they post about their campaigns including in schools and local authorities <\/span>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/somasalubrizarebacau<\/span><\/a> .<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the requency of collection and under what criteria?<\/b><\/p>\n

One of the first things we discovered is that the municipality collects residual waste on a daily basis, i.e. waste that could not be collected in either recyclable or biodegradable waste. For <\/span>residual waste <\/b>we use the <\/span>black\/metallic <\/b>bin.<\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to <\/span>cardboard, plastic and metal <\/b>the collection is done as follows<\/span><\/p>\n

– Monday – Republicii, Izvoare and Tache<\/span><\/p>\n

– Tuesday – Corni\u0219a and Milcov<\/span><\/p>\n

– Wednesday – Bistrita Lake, Centre, Miori\u021bei and Station<\/span><\/p>\n

– Thursday – Stefan cel Mare and CFR<\/span><\/p>\n

– Friday – Gher\u0103ie\u0219ti and \u0218erb\u0103ne\u0219ti<\/span><\/p>\n

For the block area (public platforms) we use the <\/span>yellow <\/b>bin for <\/span>Plastic and Metal <\/b>and the <\/span>blue <\/b>bin for <\/span>Paper and Cardboard<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the <\/span>area of houses <\/span>where door-to-door collection takes place we use <\/span>yellow <\/span>for <\/span>Plastic, Metal, Paper and Cardboard<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

And for <\/span>glass<\/b>, collection is done according to the weeks of the month from the <\/span>green <\/b>bin.<\/span><\/p>\n

– on the 1st week of the month, Saturday -Republics<\/span><\/p>\n

– in the 2nd week of the month, Saturday -Corni\u0219a and Milcov<\/span><\/p>\n

– in week 3 of the month, Saturday – Bistrita Lake and Centre<\/span><\/p>\n

– in the 4th week of the month, Saturday – Stephen the Great and Miori\u021bei<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When we talk about individual dwellings (housing area), residual waste is collected once a week and recyclables are collected twice a month. Bac\u0103u City Hall also mentioned that in these areas of houses, the collection of recyclable waste is done in a mixture and is then separated at the sorting stations.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the collection method in the municipality and what criteria are used?<\/b><\/p>\n

Collection is done with separate machines, depending on the fraction collected, i.e. once a month for glass, once a week for cardboard, plastic and metal, and daily for residual waste.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For many people from Baca\u00fa, Gher\u0103ie\u0219ti Park is a place of recreation and gathering, which comes with a lot of waste, so we wanted to see how often waste is collected from Gher\u0103ie\u0219ti Park.<\/b><\/p>\n

From the information received, the 3 areas (at the barbecues, near the playground\/stage and the tennis court) are areas that fall into the category of public platforms located throughout the municipality of Bacau, and waste is collected every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do you think, do you consider that the collection frequency is respected or is it sufficient for the municipality of Bacau?<\/span><\/p>\n

The project is run by the Romanian Academic Society in partnership with Act For Tomorrow Association and Vellenes Fellesorganisasjon with the financial support of Active Citizens Fund Romania, a programme funded by Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway through EEA Grants 2014-2021. The aim of the project is to increase the capacity for mobilization and civic engagement, especially among young people, by developing a set of monitoring and advocacy methods and tools to improve the quality of public transport, education and waste management services provided by local public administrations in urban areas.<\/span><\/p>\n
