Residents and farmers within the Upper Corentyne area who were present for a consultation on Saturday with several ministers and regional officials signalled their support for the operation of the Nand Persaud and Company Limited airstrip which is located in Number 36 Village, Corentyne.
However, they also asked that the chemicals used and process for spraying be monitored and that the company follow all the necessary guidelines so as to ensure that residents are not affected.
