Today, about five tons of waste low-current sources were removed outside Pridnestrovie for subsequent disposal from the temporary storage warehouse of MUP Spetzavtokhozyaystvo (Special Vehicle Agency) in Tiraspol.
For several years now, the batteries have been collecting from the population by the relevant agencies and EcoPMR Public Ecological Volunteer Movement.
Notably, Pridnestrovie lacks any designated enterprises dealing with the disposal of used batteries. Moreover, used low-current sources bear grave environmental and population health risks.
