With this new work team, the aim is to reinforce control over the service itself and detect breaches by some companies and citizens on a daily basis, and which are included in the Municipal Urban Cleaning Ordinance, with infractions ranging from 50-750 euros.

The Councilor for Urban Cleaning and Waste Management, María José Ruiz, informs that the cleaning service inspectors have already begun to work, who carry out the function of monitoring uncontrolled dumping throughout the municipality of Torrevieja, as well as monitoring of them, informing and graphically detailing the discharges found, to later provide all the information to the Torrevieja City Council to proceed to process the corresponding disciplinary file.

María José Ruiz has indicated that these ACCIONA workers have 10 electric mopeds and a uniform that identifies them as environmental controllers. They work through an App installed on a mobile device, where they take the images and the necessary data to proceed with the sanctions by the local authorities. In addition, they will also collect the internal incidents of the cleaning service itself, which will allow the company to improve or correct the service.

This staff of environmental controllers is made up of 10 people who work continuously from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., in different shifts, and may also perform night shifts to control incidents that occur during that day.

Lastly, María José Ruiz highlighted that this new work team intends to reinforce control over the service itself and detect non-compliance by some companies and citizens on a daily basis, and which are included in the Municipal Urban Cleaning Ordinance, with offenses ranging from 50-750 euros.

The new service will be completed with new citizen awareness campaigns that are being developed to launch them soon and, together, to have a CLEANER TORREVIEJA.
