Neighborhoods To Be Fined For Dumping Waste

The Office of the Minister of State for Provincial Affairs and Devolution for Harare Metropolitan Province, together with the Environmental Management Agency, has launched an operation dubbed “Zero Tolerance to Environmental Crimes in Harare Metropolitan Province.”

In a statement seen by Pindula News, the Minister’s office expressed great concern about environmental crimes being perpetrated by companies, shop owners, vendors and residents in Harare City. Chitungwiza, Epworth and Ruwa.

The operation will run for 45 days starting from the 10th of November 2022 to the 15th of December 2022 with the view of extending if the situation does improve. Reads part of the statement:

This Provincial Blitz will target institutions, shop owners, companies, vendors, public transporters, the actual passengers and the general citizenry who violate the statutory requirements. Be warned that in residential areas there will be BLOCK TICKETING of communities that have illegal dumps within their vicinity. So we urge all residents to clear illegal dumps in their areas as they face hefty tickets. This is meant to encourage communities to start protecting and caring about their own environments.

The operation is launched when undesignated dumpsites are all over the capital. Residents accuse Harare City Council of failing and or neglecting to collect garbage leaving them with no other option.
