Meeting on solid waste mgmt project today
arrangements in the town due to the poor work performance of the Doon
Valley Waste Management (DVWM), Mukhya Nagar Adhikari, Ashok Kumar has
planned to discuss the seven most significant issues related to the
Solid Waste Management project in a meeting scheduled to be held on
December 4 with the Principal Secretary, Urban Development, MH Khan.
As per the seven point list proposed by Kumar, necessary amendments
should be done in the agreement made between the company and MCD. He
said that, company should bear at least 20 percent expense charges on
implementation and conducting the solid waste management project. He
mentioned that the deadline for the completion of the construction work
of the transfer station should be extended.
Currently, MCD is solely bearing the expenses vehicles and other
equipments of the company. He stated that making a slight change in this
rule, company officials should also be asked to equally cooperate in
this.
However, he added that company should try to manage the maintenance
charges of the out of order vehicles without depending on the MCD. He
also mentioned that MCD should be given equal share of the user charges
earned by the company officials from different wards of the city.
He also said that certain amendments should be done in agreement
related to the penalty being imposed on the company officials on their
poor work performance.
He also stated that the responsibility of the pending trenching ground
construction issues should be handed over to the DVWM. However, this
seven point list memorandum was earlier also submitted to the principal
secretary by MNA on November 18 and the same issues would be discussed
in December 4 meeting.
