From Google....

Short history of PIRS

Until just over 20 years ago, poor waste management in Tenerife caused serious environmental problems in our country.

Before 1984 each municipality available one or more uncontrolled dumps in ravines, roads or clearings. These amounted to more than 200 landfills throughout the island. There is waste buried or burned, polluting soils, aquifers, ocean and atmosphere.

In 1984 he launched the Solid Waste Plan Insular (PIRS), with a single landfill since then receives all the waste generated on the island of Tenerife was established.

Since its opening, they have been buried in the landfill over 15,000 million kilos of waste. It has been expanded several times and each time are less likely to continue doing so, even if the amount of waste received continues to grow year after year.
