State closer to landfill target

IRELAND has edged closer to meeting its EU reduced landfill targets with AES Bord na Móna yesterday taking over the domestic waste disposal services of Kildare County Council (KCC).

State closer to landfill target

The state’s commitment to divert 80% of all waste from landfill by 2014 will be boosted when AES distributes its waste-segregating “Brown Bins” throughout Kildare. This move will see AES Bord na Móna now providing a range of waste management and recycling services to over 80,000 homes across Ireland, in addition to the commercial services provided to over 5,000 businesses across the country.

AES Bord na Móna already employs over 350 people — over 150 in the Kildare area — and this recent success will add another estimated 25 people to the organisation, primarily in customer service and collection services.
