According to the Bank's website, this project finances the rehabilitation and modernisation of solid waste infrastructure in the City of Khmelnytskyi. The operations will be carried out by Spetskomuntrans, a numicipal company wholly owned by the City of Khmelnytskyi that has contracts with more than 92,000 households and almost 3,000 commercial and public organisations for waste removal and disposal. This project is part of the EBRD's Green Cities Framework 2. 

The project will entail: (i) the rehabilitation of the existing landfill; (ii) the construction of a new engineered sanitary landfill adjacent to the old one; (iii) the acquisition of new landfill equipment; and (iv) improvements of the solid waste collection and transportation systems.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF EBRD

The Project Complaint Mechanism (PCM) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who have been or are likely to be adversely affected by an European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD)-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the PCM, it may assess compliance with EBRD's own policies and procedures to prevent harm to the environment or communities or it may assist you in resolving the problem that led to the complaint through a dialogue with those implementing the project. Additionally, the PCM has the authority to recommend a project be suspended in the event that harm is imminent. You can contact the PCM at pcm@ebrd.com or you can submit a complaint online using an online form, http://www.ebrd.com/eform/pcm/complaint_form?language=en. You can learn more about the PCM and how to file a complaint at http://www.ebrd.com/work-with-us/project-finance/project-complaint-mechanism.html.
