Assemblies given a 30-day deadline to find land for waste transfer stations

Metropolitan, Municipal and District Chief Executives (MMDCEs) have been given 30 days to identify suitable land for waste transfer stations as the government prepares to introduce an integrated waste management system.

Mr Ayariga said the change would improve waste transportation and support a more efficient operation for young people engaged in refuse collection.

According to a Starr FM report, the proposed stations will form part of a coordinated system covering refuse collection, transportation, disposal and recycling.
