The lawyer warned about the consequences due to improper disposal of garbage.
When disposing of household waste, many people do not think that some of them can cause serious harm to the environment, and for their improper disposal they can even receive a fine. Evgeny Korneev, a leading lawyer at the European Legal Service (EJ), explained on March 30 why not every garbage can be sent to the trash can with impunity.
According to him, construction debris does not belong to the category of heavy municipal waste (MSW), so it cannot be disposed of in the usual way.
"It is necessary to conclude an agreement with an organization (IE) licensed to transport waste of hazard classes I - IV," Korneev said in an interview with the Prime agency.
In addition, some things that are familiar to our daily lives, such as batteries and accumulators, contain toxic elements such as zinc, lead and cadmium, which, when decomposed, can contaminate soil and water.
According to the expert, household appliances and technical equipment, as well as furniture, old tires, aerosols and chemicals are subject to special disposal. Korneev explained that such items decompose extremely slowly and may contain toxic metals that can cause serious harm to the environment.
The lawyer clarified that for the safe disposal of all of the above items, you should contact specialized organizations. For violating these rules, Korneev warned, citizens can receive a fine of 2 to 3 thousand rubles, and in some cases, be brought to administrative responsibility.
Oksana Vasilyeva, a lawyer and associate professor at the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, warned on March 6 about the fines that Russians may face in 2025.Then she clarified that the disposal of natural waste, such as mown grass, leaves and branches, by incineration is allowed only under certain conditions.
