Garbage bearing in Pyhra: Environmentalists are calling for immediate closure!

3143 Pyhra, Österreich - In the municipality of Pyhra, a planned waste storage space of the Zöchling company ensures great excitement. During a local inspection event on March 20, 2025, Greenpeace activists want to set a clear signal against the establishment of the waste bearing. The warehouse could become the permanent disposal of waste that has been stored unfiltered since the floods in September 2024. This not only represents a potential threat to the groundwater, but also affects a nearby watershone area that is critical of St. Pölten's water supply. Greenpeace calls for an immediate cancellation of the project. Media representatives can register for the event to ensure on-site reporting, such as APA-OTS reported.

The planned waste warehouse in Pyhra raises questions because Zöchling is already faced with an examination that revolves around the illegal storage of waste. For a long time, a place was used in the catastral community of Schauching to store rubble and concrete parts. At the same time, the protest of the residents, which are deposited against the plastic packaging, is stacked up to ten meters high. For the residents, this means a potential hazard for the environment, as well as NÖN . The immediate encounter of residents and the operating company at the planned storage location promises a heated argument.
