Garbage collection in Caserta, a June at the start the new course. Courts permitting. The award decision for the new tender is ready, all that is missing is the approval of theAccounting office expected for next week. But it will be there Sieco spasociety of Bari – and no longer there Urban hygiene evolution Of Scafatiwith which Sieco had applied – to take over from Isvecwhich is currently managing the service in the city under the regime extension. The Salerno company has in fact decided to take a step back from the temporary grouping of companies with Sieco on the eve of awarding the contract. A decision that did not prevent the Common to proceed with the award process which will apparently be made official by Wednesday. Barring new twists. In fact, it seems that Isvec, which had also returned to stand as a candidate, after having won the tender in 2022, has already prepared the appeal to be filed with the Tar Campania against the new company for some anomalies found in the documentation presented.
The president of the company’s board of directors was questioned on the matter, Giuseppe Izzo, however, prefers not to say too much: «We are waiting for the final award – he simply says – then we will express our opinion on the matter, showing all the documents in our possession. In the meantime we will continue to do our duty and to guarantee waste collection and cleaning of the city”. A decision, that of starting a judicial process, which, if confirmed, could postpone the handover. A possible suspension, by the Regional Administrative Court, of the effectiveness of the Municipality’s decision would in fact significantly extend the terms of the award.
However, at the Municipality they do not seem worried about the scenario that could emerge, suggesting that they are already working to start the project new service of urban hygiene. A service which, starting from what has been achieved, will inevitably have to offer additional services to the city also and above all through the improvement proposals presented by the winning company during the tender. The contract, in truth very similar to the previous one, will have a duration of six months, extendable for another six, and a value of almost 12.1 million euros. Eighty percent of this amount will be absorbed by the costs for personnel for whom the passage to the construction site is expected. At Sieco, active in three other cities in the Campania – Villarica, Camposano And San Severino market – as well as in the regions Puglia And Calabria, the capital municipality will certainly ask for an increase in cleaning, weeding and collection activities, better management of the four ecological islands, also in light of the disservices that have emerged in recent weeks, and probably also a redefinition of the bag deposit and collection times. Also to be increased, in relation to the provisions of the European directives, is the percentage of differentiateddespite the fact that in the last quarter a comforting figure was achieved with peaks of 62%.
Uniforms, equipment and vehicles deserve a separate chapter. On this front, the trade union organizations have made their voices heard several times in the past to denounce the dilapidated conditions of the vehicles and the failure to provide everything that was required by the contract, hoping for an adequate fleet of vehicles and a technical offer for the future. worthy of the name. Four companies applied to the Municipality’s tender and were deemed suitable and in possession of the required requirements. In addition to Isvec, Ecocar was also competing, which has already managed the urban hygiene service in the city from 2013 to 2022, Green Link of Monopoli and the joint venture made up of Sieco of Bari and Igieneurbanevolution. of Scafati who, as clarified, then decided to leave the corporate structure. This could be one of the last notices issued by the body for the management of the urban hygiene service. In fact, the Municipality has announced that it wants to directly manage the integrated waste cycle through the establishment of a in-house company. The university, Conai and a professional firm in Rome were also involved in drafting the industrial plan. At the moment the offices are working on the Peg, the economic management plan, the body’s hope is that the public company will see the light by the end of 2025.
