Construction, Demolition and Excavation Waste Μanagement. National and European legislative framework. International practices. Case study: Disaster debris management - proposal for the Municipality of Agrinio in case of a catastrophic event
Summary:
One of the most important waste streams in the European Union and worldwide is excavation, construction and demolition waste (ECDW). Their importance lies both in their environmental and economic characteristic. This is because they occupy a substantial volume and possess many possibilities for their use [reuse – cyclical economy] rather than their simple disposal at the landfill.
This paper presents the legislative framework for the management of ECDW in the European Union and Greece and examines the practices of their management in selected EU member states during regular “peaceful” periods. In addition, information are presented for the management practices of ECDW caused by large catastrophic events worldwide, as well as the experience gained from them.
Specific information are given for the current situation in our country [Greece], the Region of Western Greece and more precisely the Municipality of Agrinio. All these based on the strategic planning, regarding the management of ECDW, with a view to 2020.
It is noted that extreme floods took place in the Municipality of Agrinio during December 2017, and therefore an attempt is made to present the way that created ECDW were managed due to this catastrophic event. Since natural disasters are very possible to occur often, general directions are proposed, to prepare a management plan of the produced ECDW during these events in the Municipality of Agrinio, with the utilization of available international experience.
Finally, the conclusions and issues raised by this study are presented, and proposals are made in order to assist initiatives for the preparation and / or further improvement of management planning of ECDW in both the Municipality of Agrinio and in Greece, especially after natural disasters.
