Southern Municipality Enforces Ban on Unlicensed Waste Collection

The Southern Municipality has launched a robust enforcement campaign against unauthorized waste collection activities. This initiative aims to ensure urban cleanliness and enhance public health by adhering strictly to official regulations.

With an increase in unregistered waste collectors, the municipality faces challenges in maintaining consistent waste management practices, posing potential health risks. To combat this, the Southern Municipality has initiated regular inspections and raids targeting unauthorized operations, based on Municipal Law No. 12 for 2009 related to solid waste management which mandates licensing.

The primary goals of these measures are to reduce environmental pollution and mitigate health hazards associated with improper waste disposal. Community involvement is encouraged, urging residents to report any illegal collection activities to help identify high-priority enforcement areas.

Looking ahead, the municipality plans to bolster public awareness about proper waste management practices and the importance of utilizing authorized services. This initiative marks a significant step towards fostering a cleaner and healthier environment for all southern region inhabitants.
