In the present paper a decision-making process for the potential location of new landfill areas with wide community participation and acceptance is suggested. The main scientific contribution of this work is the elaboration of an independent decision-making tool, which can be used in landfill site selection. Specifically, at a first level it acts as an intermediary between experts (i.e. engineers, technical advisors) and decision- makers (i.e. elected representatives, appointive advisors), helping decision-makers to use experts’ knowledge. At a higher level, it acts as an independent processor of decisionmakers judgments thereby giving a result that is in accordance with pre-chosen criteria. In this way, the local authorities can effectively participate in the decision-making process and avert the violation of possible agreements. Furthermore, the criteria (pre-selection – evaluation) and the methodology of multicriteria analysis for new landfill location are presented.
