NSWMA Responds to MP Richard Lewis Statements \u2013 Calls for United Front Against Illegal Dumping<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In light of recent remarks by Member of Parliament Richard Lewis urging the implementation of scheduled bulk waste collection to combat illegal dumping, the National Solid Waste Management Authority (NSWMA) is emphasizing its ongoing commitment to environmental protection and public sanitation.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

While acknowledging that illegal dumping remains a national concern, the Authority asserts that it has consistently carried out scheduled bulk waste collections for several years and more recently for the month of May and June in the Area.<\/strong> \u201cWe understand the MP\u2019s frustrations,\u201d but reiterate that a scheduled collection is not a new concept to that community or the country. We\u2019ve executed these programs across communities, year after year.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Despite these efforts, the Authority recognizes that scheduled cleanups alone have not eradicated the problem<\/strong>\u2014and illegal dumping persists. \u201cThis is a behavioral, and enforcement issue as much as it is a logistical one,\u201d the Authority maintains. The solution must go beyond cleanups\u2014it demands public cooperation, and consistent enforcement, along with changing behavior and building pride in our shared spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The NSWMA also restates to the public that it is illegal to dump waste on both government and private property<\/strong>, and that those found responsible will be held accountable under The Litter Control and Prevention Act 2019. Dumping garbage in open areas whether out of convenience or neglect is not only illegal, it undermines the health and dignity of communities.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In response to the MP\u2019s comments, the Authority is urging officials to recognize the broader efforts being made, rather than focusing solely on isolated outcomes. \u201cWe call on MP Lewis to extend forbearance and support to the Authority, which continues to operate to address the chronic issue of indiscriminate dumping across the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIllegal dumping is a complex, national challenge that no single cleanup initiative or entity can resolve overnight\u201d the Authority concluded. We need a united front to include residents, citizens, leaders, and institutions working together to change both the system and the culture around waste disposal. All stakeholders must understand their roles and responsibilities in keeping our environment and communities clean.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The NSWMA remains committed to doing its part in carrying out its mandate in waste management in Antigua and Barbuda.<\/p>
