📋 Tender Overview
Entity summoned local authorities to coordinate actions against environmental risk.The Environmental Evaluation and Supervision Agency (OEFA), an entity attached to the Ministry of the Environment, carried out a verification in the final disposal area for municipal solid waste known as the Rumiallana dump, located in the district of Yanacancha (Pasco), where it detected deficiencies in the work of covering and compacting waste, as well as inadequate maintenance of the place, which generates risk for the environment and the health of the population.
Given this scenario, the OEFA summoned representatives of the Provincial Municipality of Pasco, as well as the district municipalities of Yanacancha and Simon Bolivar, in order to coordinate remediation actions. Among them, the identification of areas at risk of instability, improvement in the use of the final disposal area and the execution of an inter-institutional cleaning campaign.
During the supervision, the OEFA technical team urged the municipal authorities to carry out, as soon as possible, maintenance actions at the dump, which covers approximately three hectares and receives around 60 tons of solid waste per day.
Within the framework of its powers, the OEFA will continue to monitor the municipalities involved regarding maintenance work, and will promptly report on the results and any additional measures that may apply.
