It will be supervised by Czech customs officer, the Environment Ministry's employees, clerks from the Town Hall of Ceska Lipa, north Bohemia, and from the Regional Office as well as the Czech Environmental Inspection (CIZP).
Out of the original 6500 tonnes of waste some 2800 tonnes of plastics are still stored in Sosnova on the former farm premises. No hazardous substances that could harm people's health and the environment have been identified in the waste, according to a court expert. The Czech Environment Ministry and German lands have agreed on the return of the waste to Germany. The same German companies that brought the waste to the Czech Republic are to provide its transport back, said Danuse Hraska from CIZP. The waste will be sent to Saxony-Anhalt from where over 1000 tonnes came. Bavarian companies, too, exported waste to Sosnova unlawfully. Czech experts have proved the German origin of more than 2400 tonnes of waste in Sosnova. The storage of German waste in Sosnova was enabled by Czech businesswoman Dana Halova who later prevented any manipulation with it. The Environment Ministry addressed a court to order Halova not to block the waste removal. The court also imposed distraint proceedings on the businesswoman. A year ago, the Czech Environmental Inspection (CIZP) ordered that Halova liquidate the German waste dumped in Sosnova by April 2006. The CIZP in the end fined Halova with 750,000 crowns as she did not meet the deadline. Last May, Saxony-Anhalt transported waste from the Czech waste dump in Libceves, north Bohemia, back to Germany on its own expenses. This was one half of the amount left at the Libceves dump after three fires. The Czech Environment Ministry allotted 1.9 million crowns to the disposal of another part of the waste. Originally, there were about 4000 tonnes of illegal waste on the site of a former cow farm in Libceves. ($1=16.484 crowns)
