A new waste and water treatment factory in Varna will be completed by June 2010, at the latest, the deputy head of Varna municipality, Yanko Stanev, said on February 26.

"Varna will not be subject to a refuse crisis like Sofia's because, until the construction's completion, the waste treatment facilities in Vuglen will be able to serve all our needs," he said as quoted by Investor.bg

The platform for the new installation is ready, 14km from Varna, on the grounds of Beloslav municipality. The new water and waste treatment factory will have enough processing capacity to facilitate the needs of Varna as well as several other municipalities in the area. According to Stanev, additional geological and hydrological surveys are being carried out near the new factory that "are meant to guarantee the security of the surrounding environment".

Concurrently, work is continuing on the construction of a regional depot in Provadia that is being built in accordance with European environmental standards.
