In addition to the 5 sites already operational, these new installations will allow more residents of Mourenx to recycle their food waste daily. Shared composting continues its development in the municipality.
The new sites will be located at Rue des Pionniers, Place de Navarre, Place du Gabizos, Rue Gaston-de-Foix, Place du Pic du Midi d’Ossau, Rue du Pic d’Anie, Place de l’Aubisque, and Avenue de Monein. They are added to the existing sites: Gendarmerie, Rue Calmette, Rue Gaston-Phoebus, Boulevard de la République, and Allée Van-Dyck.
Each shared composting site is freely accessible and includes four bins: one for depositing food waste, one for the reserve of wood chips to be added after each deposit, a maturation bin where the compost decomposes, and a mature compost bin for residents to use for their potted plants.
Two information meetings are offered to residents at the Mourenx town hall: on Thursday, November 12 from 6 PM to 7 PM, and on Tuesday, November 24 from 6 PM to 7 PM. An facilitator will present the functioning of the composters, and a compost bucket will be offered to each household. Buckets are also available at waste disposal sites or at CDC Habitat in Mourenx.
For any questions, the waste management service of the Communauté de communes de Lacq-Orthez can be reached at 05 59 60 95 42 or by email at environnement@cc-lacqorthez.fr.
