Special Correspondent

The City Corporation on Tuesday organised a training programme for its sanitary workers to orient them to the modalities of the source segregation of solid wastes planned to be implemented in the city from July 15.

Corporation Commissioner V.P.Thandapani briefed the sanitary workers and told them that source segregation will be taken up at 160 places initially. Four centres have been set up at Mariamman Kovil Street in Ariyamangalam zone, Vamadam in K.Abishekapuram, Birds Road in Golden Rock and Ambedkar Nagar in Srirangam zone for collecting non-degradable wastes. Degradable waste would be sent for bio manure production, he said.
