PW Waste Recovery Center Inauguration

In a major step toward sustainable waste management, Dasho Dzongdag officially inaugurated the PW Waste Recovery Center today, marking the launch of Samtse’s first-ever Material Recovery Facility (MRF) and Conveyor Unit.

This pioneering facility is set to transform waste management in the district by enhancing waste collection, segregation, and recycling processes. By converting waste into valuable resources, it will significantly reduce the burden on local landfills and foster a cleaner, more sustainable Samtse.

To further strengthen waste management efforts, CCTV cameras have been installed at the Majathang landfill to closely monitor all waste disposal activities. It is noted that some individuals were captured on CCTV today dumping waste in unauthorized areas. This shall serve as a final warning; henceforth, strict actions—including fines and penalties—will be imposed in accordance with existing waste regulations.

All residents of Samtse are urged to actively support this initiative by segregating waste at the source. Proper separation of biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste will enable more efficient processing at the PW Waste Recovery Center and contribute to a healthier environment for all.
