The Environmental Management Authority has completed its probe into quarrying at a site located on Circular Road, San Fernando.
The E.M.A. carried out the probe following complaints by some residents about noise pollution and environmental concerns from the alleged quarrying.
Minister of Energy Kevin Ramnarine immediately dispatched a team to the site accompanied by the Inter Agency Task Force Police Unit.
Minister Ramnarine categorically denied having any knowledge of what was happening and based on the team’s report the ministry may now halt the project.
The matter was also recently raised in the cabinet by Member of Parliament for San Fernando West Carolyn Seepersad Bachan.
In an interview this week San Fernando Deputy Mayor, Junior Regrello, confirmed that the City Corporation is now in possession of the EMA investigation into the matter.
