Among bidders last year for the collection of solid waste, especially on the Essequibo Coast, Pooran Disposal incorporated was awarded a contract by the Local Government Ministry in conjunction with the Region Two Administration to execute duties on the Essequibo Coast with effect from yesterday.
The contract was signed in early December.
Reports emanating from the Region Two Administration disclosed that Pooran Disposal incorporated was awarded the contract after a lengthy process. The solid waste management team will only collect residential garbage throughout the Essequibo Coast at a cost of $300 per bag.
Senior members of the Region Two Administration have also noted that two disposal sites have been identified—one at Lima and the other at Charity.
As part of the agreement between the solid waste giant and the Region Two Administration, the former has proposed that while more sites were promised to be made available, the Region has warned that the disposal sites must be operated according to environmental rules.
The Region Two Administration is arguing that the company will operate sites according to cells with the intention of getting maximum use for land space.
Pooran Disposal who will be afforded a 15-year lease will also have to adhere to regulations to provide operations in keeping with agreements, failing to comply the lease will be terminated, the report warned.
Free barrels will be provided by Pooran Disposal incorporated.
Where is the BETTER MANAGEMENT/RENEGOTIATION OF THE OIL CONTRACTS you promised Jagdeo?
