Roopnaraine Persaud, a councillor of the Georgetown Mayor and City Council (M&CC) has proposed that the council consider the establishment of a mini used oil re-refinery to bring in much needed revenue as well as preserving the environment.
This was disclosed by Mayor Patricia Chase-Green who shared the contents of a letter submitted by Persaud on Wednesday during the last statutory meeting of the year.
However, while at the time it seemed as though Persaud, through his letter was seeking permission to undertake the project as an individual, he has since indicated to the Stabroek News that his intention was to make a proposal to the M&CC to consider undertaking a project of this nature.
