Anna Regina Mayor urges residents to stop dumping garbage in waterways

Garbage that was seen at the Lima pump

Mayor of the Town of Anna Regina Rajendra Prabhulall is calling on residents of the Region Two town to desist from dumping garbage in the waterways.

Prabhulall said he was very disappointed when he conducted an inspection during the flooding last week and found that residents were dumping their garbage and clogging up drains in various communities. He said that a mini-excavator had to be sent to Sparta and Lima to clear clogged drains and trenches.

The trenches were filled with household items and garbage that was dumped indiscriminately.
