As of January 1st, 2017, the Regional Observatory for Waste in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur (ORD) was entrusted to the Regional Agency for the Environment and Eco-development (ARPE).
Its steering is ensured by the members of the steering committee, namely:
-
the Regional council Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur,
-
the Regional Directorate for the Environment, Planning and Housing (DREA),
-
and the Environment and Energy Management Agency (ADEME).
The ORD's missions are identified precisely in a road map developed jointly by the members of the Steering Committee. The main mission of the ORD is to ensure and improve the knowledge of regional waste management and to disseminate the results of its work annually, in particular via the Waste Dashboard in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. It is also responsible for annually monitoring reliable and reference indicators for waste management in Provence-Alpes Côte d'Azur. The Observatory is a long-term analytical tool for monitoring public policies (Regional Plan for Prevention and Management of Waste).
