Hazardous waste remediation in Graffignano

Overview

Environmental remediation efforts in Graffignano have encountered complications following the discovery of an additional 8,868 tons of hazardous waste in the Pascolaro, Casettone, and Bivio del Pellegrino areas.

This unexpected volume has required the Lazio Region to increase the project budget from 13 million to 14.5 million euros. Sogesid, the public company managing the remediation, reported that the waste found during excavations was more unpredictable than initial estimates. The total area affected by the cleanup has been updated to 1.39 million square meters, addressing an environmental emergency in the Tuscia region where approximately 20,000 tons of toxic waste had been identified over the previous two decades.
