Brief translation:
One of the speeches were the redevelopment of 167 of Alliste. This suburb has experienced a situation of complete degradation that made it unbearable: a septic tank was not working in the service of 12 apartments, not to mention theopen sewer, clearly visible, situated between two apartment buildings. Now all this is just a bad memory: the sewers were connected to a wetland plant that is a natural system of treatment much more effective than chemical and mechanical.We must move to Berlin to have more examples, and in Puglia is the first plantconstructed wetlands used in an urban context.
