Wesco Waste Management Facility (Pty) Ltd (Wesco) is in the process of applying for a license to operate a landfill and process waste, inclusive of very high risk hazardous waste, on a site very close to Melkbosstrand.
The Melkbosstrand Ratepayers Association has established a Task Team to proactively oppose this development in the interest of the community and surrounding areas. This task team consists of volunteers, inclusive of subject matter experts who have identified the health and environmental risks associated with the proposed development.
The waste management facility planned by Wesco will be detrimental to our health and the environment at large, with devastating and unacceptable consequences in the medium to long term.
