TAWANG: The Arunachal Pradesh State Pollution Control Board (APSPCB) has issued instructions for better waste management of solid wastes dumped into the Kameng River. It served as a notice to the East Kameng Deputy Commissioner (DC) in response to a complaint filed by the Youth Mission for Clean River (YMCR).
The pollution board has directed the District Urban Development Agency (DUDA) to immediately stop dumping solid trash into the river, as per Solid Waste Management (SWM) Rules, 2016.
The board has prohibited throwing, burning, or disposal of solid trash in open public spaces or water bodies. Solid wastes should be scientifically disposed of with proper segregation, collection, and treatment in an eco-friendly manner.
The YMCR has requested SPCB to take swift action and construct a Material Recycling Facility for proper management of solid wastes in the future.
