Waste: Oak House must look for a new location for its solid waste sorting and final disposal project, following an agreement with authorities and community representatives. The project originally planned for La Cuaba, in the municipality of Pedro Brand, will not continue in that area due to community concerns about possible impacts on water sources and the environment.
Project Context
The decision comes after months of resident mobilizations opposing the construction of the plant. The Gran Santo Domingo Commonwealth reported that the agreement seeks to respond to community concerns and preserve the legal commitments related to the company and the need to find solutions for the final disposal of solid waste in the Greater Santo Domingo.
Community Representatives
Among the community representatives who participated in the efforts were Fabio Correa, president of the La Cuaba Development Board; Pastor Geraldo Pérez of the Brotherhood of Pastors, and Milagro Laureano, president of the Los Aguacates Neighborhood Board. The director of the La Cuaba municipal district, Carlos Julio Montaño Ureña, also publicly confirmed that the plant will not be built in Los Aguacates.
The search for a new location for the waste management project is an important step toward finding a sustainable solution for the final disposal of solid waste in Greater Santo Domingo. Oak House will coordinate with authorities to find an alternative site that allows the project to be developed without affecting the La Cuaba community.
