City Hall for major composting project

Walter Narine

The Georgetown Mayor and City Council (M&CC) is to launch a composting project with a $28m capital outlay that will target 25 tonnes of waste daily from the Stabroek  and Bourda markets and create jobs for 25 persons.

A release on Wednesday from the Ministry of Communities said that the project is being led by Sanitation Director at the Georgetown Municipality, Walter Narine. The groundwork is set to begin after the council’s 2017 budget is read and with the required approval from the Environmental Protection Agency.
