It was formally given during the CSCL’s Board of Director meeting today.

The 8-acre site will be used for dumping of non-recyclable solid waste generated from the city. The site will be covered with a 4.5m tall and 10m deep boundary wall. The waste dumped there will be covered at all times. No foul smell will be generated at the site.

Leachate, which comes on road and the neighbouring colony, would be treated and go through sewerage. It would be done in a scientific way and there would be no pollution, said officials.
