Oil and gas support services company Halliburton wants to set up a liquid mud plant at Water Street and while the Envi-ronmental Protection Agency (EPA) says the project doesn’t warrant an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), it will be monitoring adherence to structural requirements.
In a notice to the public, which was published in the state-owned Guyana Chronicle on Tuesday, the EPA stated that the company submitted an application for Environmental Autho-risation to build a liquid mud plant at Lots 10-13 Water Street, Georgetown.
Head of the EPA Dr Vincent Adams said that under the law, the project does not require that an EIA be done but the agency will be monitoring the construction process.
