MARGAO: Nearly six days after a fire broke out at the Sonsoddo garbage treatment plant, Margao Municipal Council (MMC) chief officer Agnelo Fernandes, in a circular issued on Thursday, directed hotels, restaurants and business establishments generating wet waste to apply for consent to operate from the Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB).
Fernandes said the GSPCB approval is necessary as “it may take three months to normalise Sonsoddo waste treatment plant”.
