Many big companies especially in Bulawayo had been fined for improper disposal of waste materials.These companies are failing to adhere to proper waste management by disposing waste at undesignated places.
On the Sunday News of the 12th-18th February 2012 the Environmental Management Agency (EMA) director general Mrs Muta Chasi was quoted saying that several companies in the city had facedc the full wrath of the law after being caught on the wrong side.She also added that Lobels ,Delta Beverages Belmont and Montana Meats were ticketed for illegally discharging effluent into the public stream via drainage.According to Mrs Chasi Bulawayo City Council (BCC) was ticketed US$5 000 for discharging raw sewage at five different times.
I think thes companies deserved that especially the BCC.Thes companies clearly know the law. Above all they cased pollution and they had contaminated water.
