compare in una licenza per discarica e trattamento rifiuti.

Questa la frase completa:
"Rotating monitoring shall be carried out and the surveys shall be carried out at three-year intervals for metals and environmental toxins, as well as for feather surveys and every six years for sediment, soft-bottom fauna and eelgrass".
