Waste covered at Vadavathoor
Waste heaped at the dumping yard in Vadavathoor was
covered using tarpaulin sheets on Wednesday to prevent leachate from
seeping through the waste.
Deadline met
A
meeting recently convened by the District Collector had set June 15 as
the deadline to cover the waste. Kottayam municipal councillors and
Vijayapuram panchayat members had attended the meeting.
From Kozhikode
According
to municipal authorities, 40-metre-wide and 70-metre-long tarpaulin
sheets, weighing around 250 kg, were procured from Kozhikode to cover
almost two tonnes of waste spread over 1 lakh sq. ft in the yard.
