The Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) from November 1 will not impose a penalty on such bulk waste generators which fail to set up on-site composting units on their premises, according to Mayor Premananda Shetty.
He told a meeting of the council on Saturday that bulk waste generators are confused as to the method to be adopted for composting the wet waste.
Hence, the corporation will conduct another workshop to enlighten the apartment owners’ associations and other bulk waste generators on the different types of composting methods available. No penalty will be imposed on them till then and it will temporarily suspend the move.
