The Federation of Chamber of Commerce in the Dominican Republic (Fedocámaras) met in Santiago last week and issued a rejection of the landfill that Puerto Plata city mayor Walter Musa and Dominicana Limpia have proposed for Puerto Plata. The landfill would be located in Magiolo near Cofresí, just 700 meters from the present landfill that was just recently technically closed.
Claudio Fernandez Marti, president of Fedocamaras said another site needs to be found keeping in mind the collective interest of Puerto Plata. He said a public-private alliance is needed to build the new garbage deposit for the province.
