EIA waived for solid waste company proposing to operate in New Amsterdam

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) yesterday announced that it exempted the Guyana Waste Solution’s application to collect and transport non-hazardous solid waste from an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) as it deemed that the company will employ sound environmental practices.

The Guyana Solid Waste Solution’s operation of collection and transportation is said to be a service-oriented project and will be provided to the communities close to the Esplanade Disposal Facility in New Amsterdam.
