In September 2013, inauguration ceremony of the first landfill in the Baltics that was turned into a recreation area took place in Kudjape, Saaremaa Island. The project was carried out in cooperation with Linnaeus University in Sweden and was innovative in the sense that it rarely happens that a landfill is covered with sieved material excavated from the landfill itself.

Part of the waste was turned into waste fuel and part was recycled and turned into waste derived plastic to build stairs and handrails, for example. Monitoring equipment was installed at various places on site in order to monitor ground water quality and other characteristics.
