Dust Pollution: DoE fines construction firm Tk 1 lakh
Department of Environment (DoE) yesterday fined a construction firm in port city for dust pollution.
The firm T&EB, which was engaged in constructing a road from city’s Chandgaon to Kalurghat, was fined Tk 1 lakh for not taking necessary steps to control the dust from construction work, said a DoE press release.
The under construction road was left in a dilapidated state, causing severe dust pollution in surrounding areas whenever vehicles plied the road, hence the office was prompted to slap the firm with a fine, it said.
