A private school in Chigoto, Machonalland West, has opposed the plans submitted by a Chinese company to build a cement manufacturing factory near its headquarters.
In a statement, the Briden Rural School argued that the suggested cement factory in Shuntai Investments (PVT) will show off the learners for noise, air and water through his proximity to the project site.
Reports indicate that the company started operations in late January this year and that it is building quarters of employees.
The initial stage employs 250 local population workers.
However, the school said that the presence of the project in its suburbs was not just a danger to health, but it would also be upset.
“The bombing in the quarry threatens to harm the buildings of all these institutions. The school said,” The bombing will be noisy as vehicles and heavy machines associated with this type of industry will do. “
Moreover, there is a very real risk of air pollution from cement dust and other dust. Cement dust is known to have a 30 % silica. “
Silica is known to cause short -term and long -term health complications including lung swelling, silications, chronic pulmonary obstruction and lung cancer.
The private school said that she wrote to Chinese miners expressing her reservations about the proposed cement factory.
The school said: “So far, the company has not yet responded to the written request of Praiden.”
She said that she filed a complaint with the Environmental Administration Authority (EMA), which is seeking to get her intervention.
The statement revealed that the region in which the Chinese company is implementing its project is dedicated to educational purposes.
“This makes the project not compatible with the use of lands in the local area, which currently includes two schools and the University of Adfira, the seventh day.
“The current air view of the site places the cement factory less than 500 meters from the school boundaries, and the quarries are 360 ​​meters from the school boundaries and a road linking the two, less than 60 meters from the school boundaries.”
NewSday could not get a comment from EMA.
A number of Chinese mining companies clashed with the societies in which they work or have plans to create operations.
Local population is accused of Chinese mines of causing the deterioration of the environment, pollution, and violations of the Labor Law, among other violations, amid reports that some companies claim to enjoy the protection of the government and the ruling officials of the Zano party, including ministers.
Zhou Bin, General Manager of New Zeuzdai recently told the proposed cement factory to use the latest technology, designed to maintain noise, air and water pollution much lower than known standards.
Zhou expressed the company’s readiness to involve all stakeholders as it ends its plans to develop the mine by simply obtaining all the necessary approvals. Daysday Day
