No more fireworks for private parties! Balla: This is when they will be allowed

If you have a family party, don't even think about lighting fireworks, otherwise you will be fined. This is one of the rules that the Albanian government has set, with the aim of eliminating noise.

On the other hand, if such a thing is done by a business, then not only will it be fined, but it risks having its activity closed. Also, there are clearly defined rules for throwing fireworks on New Year's Eve.

"Since we are approaching the holiday season, in order to avoid incidents with consequences for the lives of citizens and children, at the organizational level, regarding fireworks, I have requested and want to make public the fact that the State Police must to immediately carry out increased inspections to identify cases of illegal use of pyrotechnic articles by citizens. The law is very clear, the law has set a deadline of only 15 days for the trading of most fireworks, pyrotechnic materials, only from December 15 to January 1.

And the law says that their use is allowed from December 27 to January 1," said Balla.

With the aim of eliminating noise, a joint directive was signed today that defines the permissible limit levels of noise in different environments, indoor or outdoor.

"Through this joint instruction today, we determine the permitted limit levels of noise in different environments, internal or external, which must be respected by all citizens and operators who exercise economic or social activities.

Related to this point, let me be very clear and emphasize that the rule must be ended and strictly implemented by the State Police. The practice of setting off firecrackers late at night by irresponsible people celebrating private family parties, disturbing the sleep and nighttime tranquility of an entire city.

The State Police, together with the municipal police, as authorities for the implementation of this instruction, will exercise controls for any source of noise, including those of fireworks, but a source of noise for all definitions, and we will punish anyone with a fine, whether private economic operator, be it a state institution if it happens, that violates noise protection measures.

In addition to the punishment with a fine, depending on the damage caused by the noise, the temporary or permanent closure of the economic activity can also be imposed, according to the law", concluded Balla.
