Sources: 3. Developments: 2. The Municipality of Caserta has formally opposed a project to repurpose the Cava Iuliano limestone quarry in the San Clemente district. The proposal sought to establish a facility for receiving and treating 108,000 tons of non-hazardous special waste annually. Local officials cited concerns regarding environmental pollution and increased heavy vehicle traffic, noting that the area is currently classified as agricultural land. Following this opposition, various civic committees and associations, such as Ambiente e Diritti Calpestati and Comitato NO CAVE, have called for increased legal and technical scrutiny of environmental issues in the region. These groups highlighted the provincial denial of the Iuliano project and the suspension of environmental authorization for the Moccia cement plant. Additionally, local committees are demanding transparency and clear timelines from the Province of Caserta regarding the removal of waste from former industrial sites in Ailano and Teano. While the Campania Region has allocated 4.2 million euros for these interventions, residents continue to seek information on the impact on public health and local ecosystems. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-07: Caserta community groups demand action on quarries and waste sites Civic committees in Caserta, Italy, are demanding legal accountability and clear timelines regarding quarry operations and waste removal at former industrial sites in Ailano and Teano. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/caserta-community-groups-demand-action-on-quarries-and-waste-sites ### 2026-10-09: Caserta opposes waste treatment project at Cava Iuliano quarry The Municipality of Caserta opposes the industrial reuse of the Cava Iuliano limestone quarry for a special waste treatment plant, citing traffic safety and pollution concerns. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/caserta-opposes-waste-treatment-project-at-cava-iuliano-quarry --- Cite as: Caserta waste and quarry management disputes.
