📋 Tender Overview
The Environmental Evaluation and Control Agency (OEFA), an entity attached to the Ministry of Environment, verified that the Imperial District Municipality has complied with the ordered preventive measures to improve the environmental conditions of the Cerro Candela dump, located in the district of Imperial, province of Canete, Lima Region.
These measures included actions such as the scattered, leveling, compaction and coverage of solid waste, as well as the eradication of burning and informal segregation of waste inside the degraded area.
During the supervisions made between 2024 and 2025, the OEFA identified breaches that motivated the imposition of forced execution measures. Thanks to this intervention, the Municipality has corrected these observations and, in the last environmental supervision, the total compliance of the provisions was found.
This advance reflects a significant improvement in solid waste management in the area, which helps mitigate risks to public health and the environment.
