The Riyadh Municipality has launched a new mechanism to regulate the disposal of construction, demolition, and renovation waste, aiming to curb illegal dumping and enhance the urban landscape. The mechanism requires engineering offices to attach waste transfer commitments when requesting construction permits, and facilities must provide a contract with a licensed transporter from the National Waste Management Center "Mawan" to ensure waste is transferred to approved landfills. During implementation, proof of the transport of excavation results and waste must be submitted to prevent accumulation of debris on vacant land. Penalties for violating this include fines of up to 100,000 SAR for dumping waste on others' land or public spaces, which is considered a moderate violation. Additionally, the Ministry of Municipalities and Housing has issued a guide to organize the disposal of construction and demolition waste, emphasizing the importance of adhering to it to improve the urban environment and reduce encroachment on public utilities.
