Markets in Rarieda Constituency are set to benefit from the construction of incinerators.
Siaya County Trade Chief Officer Chris Owang recently announced that the county government will construct incinerators in all modern markets to deal with waste management,.
Mr Owang said the markets generated huge waste and the construction of incinerators would improve the collection unit.
There will be a collection point known to all the traders operating at the markets, and instead of moving with waste, they will be burned locally.
Owang said all the six markets would have incinerators, with the next budget allocating funds enough to aid the construction of the facilities in Ugenya and Rarieda
The incinerators will be constructed such that they confine the final ash and prevent it from seeping into the environment and nearby water bodies.”We are copying our health facilities that have incinerators. We want to ensure that constant complaints of poor waste management is a thing of the past,” he said.
