Gurgaon to install household solid waste treatment plants

Date:

Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) today announced to install solid waste treatment plants in the kitchens of the city residents.

Announcing this here, Satya Prakash who is also Deputy Commissioner and MCG Commissioner said that the solid waste treatment plants were installed in five up-scale condominiums in the first phase and officials were expecting to cover every condominium in the city in the next one year or so.

“The initiative has significant importance considering the fact that solid waste treatment plant situated at Bandhwari village on Gurgaon-Faridabad expressway has been shut since June 2013. Hence the garbage generated from Gurgaon and Faridabad is dumped at the place without treatment.

“The move also holds merit as solid waste management has been given 60 per cent weightage followed by 30 per cent for household level efforts and community toilets. Besides that 10 per cent goes for city level sanitation plans, information, education and behaviour changes,” Prakash said.

The solid waste treatment units are currently underway in condominiums such as Vastu apartment in sector 55, Hamilton court in DLF phase 4, World Spa at sector 31, DLF court yard in DLF phase 5 and ANX apartments, the official added.
