Studies on the effects of the generation, transportation and disposal of hazardous wastes and other wastes on human health and the environment have begun recently. In 1998, a general analysis on the “State of the Environment in Andorra” was published, and chapter V of this Study was dedicated to the problem of waste generation and treatment in Andorra. The chapter provides statistics on the types and amounts of wastes, and also on the existing solutions and the future plans for waste treatment and disposal. Although much remains to be done, and data to be collected, this study has provided the basis for an analysis in the future.
English summary of this study is available on demand from the Department of Environment.
