221:, fuels qualified as waste are co-fired in the clinker kiln. This concerns sludge from sewage treatment plants and sorted material from household waste processing. Residual material that remains after combustion is processed with the clinker. The parties are divided on the question of whether there is "responsible disposal of waste". Local residents complain about the nuisance of stench, dust and noise as a result of the combustion of residual materials. The incineration of this waste also produces additional emissions of, among other things, mercury. ENCI in Maastricht annually emits, among other things, about 70 kg of mercury and 30,000 kg of particulate matter.

Breathtaking' collected nearly 5000 signatures from opponents of further excavation as a citizens' initiative. ENCI employees subsequently collected more than 12,000 signatures. The Municipality of Maastricht and the Provincial Council of Limburg initially took a dual attitude, with the employment aspect being the deciding factor for many years.

Despite its name, ENCI was founded by a
Belgian-Swiss consortium in 1925 with the first factory starting production in 1928. With the founding of ENCI, the Netherlands were no longer fully dependent on foreign cement. At the turn of the 21st century, ENCI produced 1.6 million tonnes of cement yearly,

Although ENCI BV's excavation permit expired on
December 31, 2009, it was extended once more in 2010, until 2018. In that year, the marl extraction on the Sint-Pietersberg was definitively stopped; clinker production was continued until 2019 using the accumulated marl stocks. From 2018, the clinker

The limestone in the Sint-Pietersberg is mined in opencast mining, excavating an increasing part of the mountain, causing significant damage to the landscape and the flora and fauna living there. In addition, in 2006 a piece of ENCI forest on the Sint-Pietersberg was felled without ENCI having the

Until about 1970, the ENCI was one of the largest employers in
Maastricht. Since the 1970s, criticism of the company has increased because more and more people found the activities of the quarry and the factory harmful to nature and the environment, in particular because of the degradation of the

From its inception, ENCI's shares have been largely owned by the
Brussels-based company CBR (Cimenteries et Briquetteries Réunies de Bonne Espérance). This company was acquired in 1993 by the German HeidelbergCement, an internationally operating group that is currently the fourth largest cement

In 1924, the First Dutch Cement

With the cessation of marl mining and clinker production in
Maastricht, the long-lasting struggle of local residents and environmental activists against the cement company has come to an end for the time being. For decades there have been protests against the further deterioration of the

Sint-Pietersberg by excavation, the desiccation of the
Jekerdal, which is partly due to the pumping of groundwater by ENCI, and the emission of harmful substances into the air, partly due to the co-firing of waste materials in the clinker kiln.

In addition to the influence of the Albert Canal, ENCI's activities also contribute to the dehydration of the
Jekerdal by pumping large quantities of groundwater from the quarry for marl extraction.
